It is generally quite a chill activity to have a little fun while exercising in your free time, but can become competitive when the time is running down and the score is close.

Yoga is held weekly for any residents who are interested in joining. Held by a competent instructor who also happens to be a resident, yoga is a good way to alleviate some of the stress a student goes through over the week. It is also a great place to make new friends and bond with existing ones.

Movie nights might not exactly be held weekly but are held quite frequently. Movie nights are held in the halls’ movie room which can accommodate a good amount of people and is a good option to spend some free time in the midst of your hectic schedule.

London Series: Food at International Hall

International Halls provides catering services in their dining hall 2 days everyday; breakfast and dinner on weekdays and lunch and dinner on weekends. It is also possible to order packed meals when students have to be absent from the dining hall at the allotted meal times. Breakfast and Lunch are served to residents where they can choose up to six items on the menu plus a drink and dessert. Dinner is served to residents where they can choose a soup or bread, a main course, 2 sides, a drink and dessert.

Taste:

The taste of the food at International Hall is generally average. There is not much praise to be given for the taste of the food as it is prepared in bulk and difficult to guarantee high quality taste.

Lunch at Breakfast at International Hall can be considered quite decent and even pretty good at times. They serve an english breakfast with selections such as beans, sausages, pastries and fish. Its generally very hard to mess these sorts of food up so the catering staff are able to do a relatively satisfactory job. An interesting tip is to choose bread with eggs and sausages to make a sandwich. Another tip is to just order as many chicken sausages (don’t order the vegetarian sausages they’re terrible) and eat them with a few packets of salt. Also, if you are in a hurry for a morning class taking 6 butter croissants (usually served on Fridays and the only type of croissants that won’t hurt your teeth when you bite into them) to go as they are relatively filling.

Dinner at International Hall can be quite depressing. Not much of the selection is very good and almost never filling but at least they attempt to diversify the selections every week. A personal favourite amongst the students is the chicken, but not the tasteless chicken breast, which is usually served with gravy and surprisingly tender to the bite. This main course option is one of the only saving graces that the catering service at International Hall has to offer and its not even that good. Furthermore, a dish that should be definitely be avoided are any noodle dishes. The noodle dishes served at International Hall are generally quite bland and heavy with garnishes that don’t add to the flavour but make it more difficult to eat. Ever choosing a noodle dish would be a grave mistake and whoever ends up doing that should be prepared to shell out a few pounds on dinner from an outside source.

The drinks served at International Hall are generally quite good as they are . They usually serve two selections of juices from either apple, orange and lime juice with soft drinks. Sometimes the soft drink machine is not filled correctly and all you will get is fizzy water coming out of the tap.

The wardrobe is relatively large and can fit many clothing items. However, the bed is quite small but enough for one person and the duvet they provide is rather ineffective against the cold, so buying an extra duvet is advised. Another downside is that the shared toilets are often clogged as people usually throw toilet paper into them.

Study Rooms:

The study rooms at International Hall are quite useful for studying. The first one can be found in the main lobby area. It has glass walls so students can see inside from outside and outside from inside which will be an issue for self-conscious people.

Next, there is a study room in the lower ground floor of the halls. This room is quite spacious with lots of long tables. This room is good for people who want to work in silence outside of their room as generally people who use the room tend to respect the unwritten rule of silence.

Last, there is the study room on the second floor. This room might be the best out of the three as not many people know about it and it overlook the outside of the halls.
