CampusKey student accommodation: every city and property

What CampusKey is

CampusKey (campuskey.co.za) is a private student accommodation operator offering what it describes as an all-inclusive "co-living" model — furnished private and shared rooms bundled with utilities, Wi-Fi, security, gym access and communal social spaces. CampusKey operates one flagship residence in each of six university towns: Cape Town, Pretoria, Stellenbosch, Bloemfontein, Potchefstroom and Gqeberha.

Room categories are broadly consistent across properties — CampusKey uses tiers such as "Socializer" (shared rooms), "Explorer" (two-sharing) and "Independent" (single, non-sharing) apartments, each with Silver/Gold/Platinum finish levels at different price points. Always confirm current pricing directly on the CampusKey site or with the property, since rates change by intake year.

CampusKey Rosebank is located at 24 Main Road, Rosebank, Cape Town, close to the University of Cape Town (UCT). The property offers single, non-sharing "Independent" rooms across several tiers (Silver through Platinum+), and its amenities include a CK Mini café, a clubhouse and lounge, communal kitchen facilities, and 24/7 gym access for residents.

Rosebank is a short commute from UCT's upper and lower campuses, and CampusKey markets the location for its views and access to Cape Town's southern suburbs. Compare it against other trusted UCT-area listings on DigsConnect before committing.

What to check before choosing CampusKey

CampusKey's all-inclusive pricing bundles utilities and amenities into one fee, which can simplify budgeting but makes it harder to compare like-for-like against unbundled digs. Confirm exactly what is included (utility caps, laundry, cleaning), the lease term and cancellation terms, and whether the specific property is NSFAS-accredited if that applies to you — see DigsConnect's guide to NSFAS accreditation. Always compare against trusted independent listings near your campus before signing.
