Summer Internship Housing – London (Blackfriars / Farringdon area, ~10 weeks)

Hi everyone,

I’ll be doing a 10-week summer internship in London this summer and I’m currently looking for short-term accommodation around the Blackfriars / Farringdon area.

I’m a student, so I’m ideally looking for:

• Short-term, furnished housing
• Student-friendly options (studio or shared flat)
• Easy commute to Blackfriars / Farringdon

For those who’ve interned in London before:

• What housing options worked best for you (student halls, summer sublets, short-term lets, etc.)?
• Any platforms, residences, or areas you’d recommend (or avoid)?
• Is it generally worth commuting from slightly further out for better value?

Any advice or experiences would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.
