Lublin represents an established campus which serves to anchor Student Depot’s presence in Eastern Poland.
Student Depot (SD) Lublin was the second residence to join the Student Depot portfolio, becoming operational in March 2016. The residence is located at 13/13A Dr Witolda Chodźki Street, directly alongside the Medical University of Lublin, becoming an established part of the city’s student accommodation market over the decade of operation. Lublin is one of the largest academic centres in eastern Poland, home to nearly 60,000 students.
A unique characteristic of the scheme is the fact that the residence comprises two buildings, named Alfa and Beta respectively, operating together as one integrated student community. Across the two residences, the scheme provides 268 places in 232 rooms beds across a mix of private studios, single rooms in shared apartments and twin rooms, providing a vast choice of living arrangements at various price points.
Features within the Lublin scheme include an on-site gym, dedicated study and chill-out space, laundry facilities, bike storage and 24/7 security. To complement these facilities, residents are also offered Wi-Fi and gym access in their rent as a part of an all-inclusive arrangement.
A fundamental characteristic of Student Depot’s project selection is academic connectivity. Lublin serves to demonstrate this, being only a few minutes’ walk from the Medical University of Lublin, with the residence serving as a natural choice for students of the university. Lublin also benefits from access to Maria Curie-Skłodowska University (UMCS) and Lublin University of Technology.
Lublin has maintained its position as an academic hub of eastern Poland, being home to nearly 9,000 international students from 100 countries. This underpins the sustained demand for high-quality student accommodation. With the Lublin scheme approaching its tenth operational year, the scheme continues to contribute positively to the local student accommodation market as well as supporting Student Depot’s long-term growth strategy in Poland.
