We know making new friends in a new place can be tough, so we’ve got a jam-packed events calendar filled with in-person and virtual activities to help you meet your new neighbours and meet friends. From floristry classes, yoga, meditation and coding to breakfast clubs and low-key board game evenings – and everything in between – we’ve got something for everyone and our events are open to all. So encourage your friends and family to join us from wherever they may be!

You can find all the upcoming events and activities in the Events section of our Nido Resident App. We can’t wait to see you there!

We’ve pulled together a handy guide full of everything you need to know ahead of joining us at Nido. The guide will explain things like how to use the equipment in your room, to our reception operating hours. Furthermore, it’ll explain how to connect multiple devices to the super fast Wi-Fi.

We’ve taken the guess work out of packing with our handy packing guide and our exclusive partnership with UniKit Out. This means you can order what you need for your room, delivered straight to your door and enjoy 10% off using code ‘NIDO10’ – happy shopping!

Your Nido Welcome Book

We speak your language

We speak your language

We’re all about community at Nido and if we don’t speak your native language, we will find a member of our team or community that can. We have dedicated Resident Ambassadors who will be identified to you upon check in, so you always know who to speak to to find out key information or get the insider knowledge.

We know adapting to a new environment can sometimes be a little intimidating. Our team are super friendly so if you are feeling home sick or want a chat, pop down to reception to say hi. We also organise a fun events calendar throughout the year with regular in-person and virtual events (via Instagram), so you can get to know your neighbours and our team.

Let's be Insta friends
