True Student Sheffield is a premium, purpose-built student accommodation at 12 Broad Lane, Sheffield S1 4BT, offering luxury shared apartments and private studios in Sheffield city centre, about a 10-minute walk from the University of Sheffield and 15 minutes from Sheffield Hallam University. Every room is fully furnished with a Smart TV, unlimited super-fast Wi-Fi, unlimited free printing, and all bills included, and the building is designed to a genuinely high standard that sets it apart from standard Sheffield PBSA. This guide covers the rooms, amenities, location, the honest picture and who True Student Sheffield suits.
True Student Sheffield rooms and amenities
True Student Sheffield offers both en-suite rooms in shared flats and self-contained studios. Every bedroom features a double bed, a study area with a desk, chair and bookshelf, a Smart TV, a mirror, a wardrobe with ample storage, and a private bathroom with sink, mirror, toilet and shower. Shared-flat kitchens are fully equipped and sociable, while studio kitchens are private. Unlimited super-fast Wi-Fi and free unlimited printing are included, a genuinely useful perk for students who print a lot of lecture notes and assignments. Rent is all-inclusive.
How far is True Student Sheffield from the universities?
True Student Sheffield sits centrally on Broad Lane, about a 10-minute walk from the University of Sheffield and 15 minutes from Sheffield Hallam University. The city centre, with its shops, bars, restaurants and Moor Market, is on the doorstep. My tip: Broad Lane puts you between both universities, making True Student a strong choice if you are unsure which campus you will spend more time at.
The honest picture
True Student Sheffield's strengths are its genuinely premium finish (the brand is known for luxury across all its UK sites), its Smart TVs and unlimited free printing (unusual PBSA perks), its central Broad Lane location between both universities, and all-inclusive billing. The honest counterpoints: "luxury" pricing means it is not the cheapest option in Sheffield (budget students may find better value at iQ Knight House or Sheffield 3), and as a city-centre building, the surroundings are urban rather than the leafy Broomhill or Ecclesall areas some students prefer.
Conclusion
True Student Sheffield delivers on its luxury promise: premium rooms, Smart TVs, unlimited Wi-Fi and printing, and a genuinely central location between both universities. If you want the highest-spec PBSA in Sheffield and are willing to pay for it, True Student is the standout choice.
