Goodenough College is a registered charity tucked away in leafy Mecklenburgh Square, providing residential accommodation in a unique community for postgraduate students in London.

The College comprises two buildings on either side of a quiet garden square. With its international academic and professional community you will find this venue both stimulating and relaxing in its quiet and informal atmosphere.

Goodenough College is centrally located in WC1 and is in easy walking distance of numeorus underground and mainline stations, with good accessibility from all London airports.

The Great Hall is our largest room and by far the grandest. With its high vaulted ceilings and oak panelled walls this is a unique space for any event. This prestigious room can stage many types of events such as product launches, an informal buffet for 250, a formal seated three course dinner for 220 guests, or a conference for up to 250 delegates. It is the preferred room to contain the many royal visits and ambassadorial receptions the College has enjoyed over the years.

    I lived for a year (and a bit) at Goodenough, quite some moons ago now, when I was doing my grad studies at the LSE...all in all it was a wonderful experience and one that I cherish to this day. Lots of interesting people from all over the world. How the college is these days I have no idea, 25 years can change a lot (and it did seem to become very earnest around the time of all that George Floyd stuff, much wringing of hands), but back then it was certainly a great place to be.

    Visited my son who is staying there. Cooked brunch very reasonably priced. Great student accommodation in the centre of London.
