Hall profile pages are the key areas of the accommodation pages and should contain all the information in one area with a clear call to action.

Copy should be clear and concise, the content displayed should work together to provide an overall feel of the accommodation.

Key information includes:

  • Photo gallery
  • Location
  • Room types
  • Floor plans
  • Prices, contract lengths and what’s included
  • Facilities
  • Video and/or virtual tour
  • Call to action – apply now/book now
  • Contact information
  • Student testimonial/quote

If the website has the functionality it is useful to list the halls so comparisons can easily be made in relation to room types, prices and contract length, and the addition of a filter function can also ease the shortlisting and selection process which is similar to many holiday booking websites and makes the research process much easier.

If this functionality isn’t available a more basic halls price comparison table can be really useful to highlight and compare facilities and costs across a number of different residences to aid shortlisting and further research.
