About this location

Lyon Street Building

Our Lyon Street residences have 125 bedrooms, divided into one, two, and three bedroom flats.

Spread across two buildings, these former private flats have been converted by Abertay and retain the feel of a private rental, but with the perks of university accommodation.

Light, airy bedrooms have been made up as singles, twins or doubles, and all contain storage and study areas.

Lyon Street is the furthest residence from campus, but is still only a short walk away and benefits from free, on-street public parking. It's also very close to Albert Street, which offers shopping and numerous public transport options.

Residents at Lyon Street have exclusive access to a large area of green space located behind one of the buildings. It is a perfect place to chill out, play games, or have barbecues with your flatmates and neighbours.

Lyon Street tends to be a bit more subdued than our other residences, mainly due to flat sizes. However, those living there find a great community spirit, and there is always something going on.
