Best University of Virginia dorms

No AC, cockroaches, but culture is nice. I lived in the basement so it was a little cooler temperature-wise. - 3 years ago

The dorm is really nice - new and centrally located. The lounge areas are spacious and great for studying (whiteboards). You are right next to dining halls, a fitness center, and scott stadium. Perfect location if you are in engineering as well! No complaints other than that the rooms were a little small. - 1 year ago

Shannon is known as hotel Shannon by some. It is a dorm that is basically right across from the Fitness and Aquatic Center and in close proximity to the Ohill dining hall. This dorm is also one of the closest to both the bus stops. Also, if you’re a engineering student the walk isn’t too bad to the engineering buildings but the McCormick road dormitories are slightly closer. This dorm has a common room and shared bathrooms on every floor. The laundry room, water fountain, and study rooms are located on the first floor. - 2 years ago

Bond House is the newest dorm on grounds and is by far the nicest. The location is great, as it is relatively central and is close to the medical area, lawn, and e way. No cons except for the slightly smaller than ideal room but overall a great dorm. - 2 years ago
