St Regulus Hall was originally built in 1880s as a hotel, and was extended in the 1950s after being acquired by the University. St Regulus Hall benefits from its history and old-fashioned charm, with the hall committee provides a sense of community.
St Regulus Hall is located in a quiet area close to the centre of town, directly next to St Mary’s Quadrangle, and several other Arts buildings.
A current feasibility study is under way for plans to upgrade the main kitchen and improve social spaces in the main hall. This may involve some inconvenience to the residents should the planned work start during the academic session. All details will be provided in due course.

Residence fees 2024-25
UK RPI (all items) which is the main measure we use to set the rents, was at the time of setting the rents in September 2023 8.5%. To support this below RPI increase, RBS has been asked to consider some changes to services. Housekeeping arrangements in traditional halls will change from September 2024, staff will clean shared bathrooms and kitchens (unless they are part of a flat) as well as corridors and other public areas. Bedrooms will not be cleaned and students will be responsible for disposing of rubbish and recycling. In line with ensuite accommodation, monthly cleanliness and safety checks will be carried out.
Life in St Regulus Hall
St Regulus Hall, usually referred to as "Regs", is one of the smallest of the undergraduate halls, with around 175 students. As a result it is a tight-knit and friendly community, with a strong and positive hall spirit. Most residents live in shared rooms, though single rooms are also available. Common areas include a common room with television and sofas, a games room, a library and a computer room. Regs is a fully catered hall with a lovely dining area large enough for the whole hall to sit down together, which is fantastic when we have one of our regular formal dinners.
The student committee organise a variety of events throughout the year, including hall parties, karaoke, quizzes, and the annual hall ball. The Wardens host frequent wine and cheese nights in the library (a great excuse for dressing up in your academic gown) as well as more informal events.
