Leah T.
The Switch Kensington is new, clean, and well looked after, with a really friendly team. Check-in was easy, and the spot between the city and UNSW is ideal. I really enjoyed staying here and would recommend it.

As an international student, I’m staying at The Switch Kensington now, and it’s been a great experience so far. It’s clean, comfortable, and convenient, and the staff have been so kind and helpful. That makes everything feel easy and enjoyable.

I’ve become more consistent with running and improved steadily through Switch Run Club. The group sessions keep me motivated and supported, and having Ben there as a coach really helps, whether it’s advice on technique, pacing, or building confidence. I’m enjoying running a lot more than I expected and feel like I’m training with a purpose.
Ethan L.
The welcoming staff made me feel at home right away, even as an international student. There are always fun activities, and The Switch has great amenities. I love the people and the atmosphere. For student accommodation, it’s one of the best places you can stay, and I’d definitely recommend it.
Arjun M.
I spent six months here and had a great time. The community is lovely, and the staff are incredibly welcoming and friendly. There’s a gym, eco bikes, and a common area, and UNSW is about a 17-minute walk away. The ES marks light rail is close too. A great place to stay.
