The Refinery is student accommodation at 6 Bingley Street, Leeds. It stands 0.5 mi from the city centre and is operated by Fresh Student Living. Choices include studios with private mini-kitchens and en-suite rooms in shared apartments. The nearest university is the University of Leeds, at 0.6 mi. Leeds station is the closest rail link.

Rooms: Studios are graded by floor. Bronze is on the ground floor up to the 2nd, Silver on the 3rd - 5th, Gold on the 6th - 8th and Platinum on the 9th - 10th. Each studio includes a small double bed, a TV, plenty of workspace and its own mini-kitchen. En-suite residents share a kitchen and a TV lounge within their apartment. Copper and Bronze en-suites measure approximately 13.5sqm, with a small double bed and a shower room. Silver and Gold en-suites sit higher up. At 20sqm with a double bed, the Platinum En Suite is the most spacious room.

What's included: Wi-Fi, hot water and electricity are covered, along with contents insurance. Applicants pay a £150 holding deposit, which is later set against the first instalment of rent. Paying in instalments requires a guarantor, who can be UK-based or international. Guarantors must be over 18 and provide photo ID and recent proof of address. A parent or guardian may live with the tenant, but other guarantors may not. Students on a monthly bursary may pay monthly. Bank transfer and online payment are accepted.

Getting around: Students at Leeds City College have a short trip, as it is 0.2 mi away. BPP Law University (Whitehall Centre) is at 0.5 mi. Leeds Metropolitan University and Leeds University Business School are each 0.6 mi off, about 12 minutes on foot. Reaching the city centre takes about 10 minutes' walk. Leeds station, run by Network Rail on New Station Street, is about 18 minutes away on foot.

In the building: Shared spaces cover a cinema room, a games area, a lounge and a study room. Residents also have a gym, a coffee station and a roof terrace. A cycle store and laundry are provided. Security comes from CCTV, a security team and the on-site residents' team, who also run events.

Good to know: Students who book online or by phone without viewing get 72 hours to cool off. For bookings from 1st August 2026, that window shortens to 24 hours. After moving in, release depends on finding a replacement tenant the landlord accepts.
