General information

Established in 1965, this Hall was originally built to accommodate students attending the Loughborough College of Education, which was subsequently amalgamated into the University. Towers re-opened in 2010 after a year of refurbishment. All of the bedrooms and bathrooms have been completely refitted, all with panoramic views.

Towers is an incredible hall with plenty of spirit! I will be Towers 'til I die!
