The event marked a crucial point in the construction of its new 15-storey tower building.

The ceremony was attended by Study Inn directors to acknowledge the project's significance to the Leeds community.

Phase 1 of the development comprised regeneration of an existing landmark building and was opened by the group in September 2022, delivering 163 rooms.

The second phase will add a further 222 rooms and is on track for opening in September 2024.

Amenities have opened alongside the first phase of the development and include a wellness spa, yoga studio, gym, entertainment area, and bowling lanes.

The link block joining the two buildings will include a large reception area and study rooms with break spaces. 

"We are delighted to mark this significant milestone in our ongoing drive to redefine student living in the UK.

“It is a testament to our dedication to providing a dynamic environment for academic growth and personal development and we eagerly anticipate the positive impact this facility will bring to the Leeds community," said Simon Liversage, managing director of developments at Study Inn Group.
