• Baylor University – Charles Weaver:

‘We have worked closely with the staff at Imperial College during the past 15 years. Working with groups as large as ours (often more than 100) can be challenging, but we’ve always found the staff to be friendly, professional and responsive.  We have stayed in three different locations at Imperial and have always had a positive experience.  The facilities are clean, comfortable, secure and well-kept, and the location is unbeatable.  We look forward to continuing our relationship for years to come.  We have found the catering facilities to be a convenient, reasonably priced option for the students enrolled in our programs.”

• Beijing Normal University – Yalun An:

‘Wilson House is a wonderful place to stay with very nice staff and full facilities. We’ve enjoyed everyday’s walk through beautiful Hyde Park very much.”

• Thornton College – Marie-Louise Lewis:

“This accommodation was perfect for our school party. It was very well located and secure. The food (including packed lunch) was excellent and the catering staff couldn’t have been more helpful.  The booking process was made easy by the efficiency of our contact, Andrew Styles.  We stayed for 2 nights in 2015 and 2016 and have provisionally booked again for 2017.  Overall, excellent accommodation and staff in the heart of London.”
