About Us

Why We Built Auba

Students today face pressures previous generations didn’t. They need more than accommodation. They need support that meets them where they are.

Auba meets this moment.

A NEW APPROACH TO STUDENT LIVING

Who We Are

Auba is a premium student accommodation brand with three purpose-built residences in Zone 1 Central London: Auba London City, Auba London Holborn and Auba London Strand. All Auba residences sit within walking distance of London’s leading universities, including King’s College London, the London School of Economics and University College London.

Auba is a brand by Dominus; a family-owned real estate and hospitality group whose London portfolio includes hotels operated in partnership with Hilton and Marriott.

We don't expect you to arrive with all the answers. Just the curiosity to find them.

MORE THAN ACCOMMODATION. A STANDARD.

Our Story

Premium amenities and social spaces are now expected. A gym, a rooftop, a cinema, co-working space - these spaces have become the baseline of student accommodation. So the question we started with wasn’t what to build. It was what students actually need from the place they live.

The answer is support. Genuine support. Students today carry pressures previous generations didn’t. What they need is support that meets them where they are - practical, human, and available before it’s asked for. Not a list of a handbooks.

Auba is designed to give students time and space to make the most of their journey. To explore, grow, and figure things out at their own pace. Nobody arrives at university with their whole plan resolved, and we’ve built Auba on the assumption that they shouldn’t have to.

What We Stand For

Four Promises at Every Auba Residence

Derby Reception

01

A welcome that stays

From the moment you arrive, Auba makes you feel genuinely seen and that feeling doesn’t fade. Moving in isn’t a transaction. It’s the beginning of a relationship.

02

Genuine care

Not performative wellbeing. Genuine care means anticipating what residents need, being present, and building an environment that actually supports student wellbeing.

03

Creating together

Residents shape their Auba experience alongside us. We listen, we adapt, and we co-create - because the best environments are built with the people who live in them, not just for them.

04

Continuously growing

Auba is not definitive. We evolve with our residents, with research, and with the changing shape of student life. This is a commitment to always becoming better.

Backed by Dominus

Hospitality DNA

Auba is delivered by Dominus, whose London portfolio includes hotels operated in partnership with Hilton and Marriott. Auba applies that hospitality discipline - warm welcomes, attention to detail and exceptional service, to student living.

The Derby

The Derby

The Derby London City, Curio Collection by Hilton is a 234-room hotel located at 5-10 Great Tower Street. The hotel’s name, inspired by the iconic bowler hat known as a “Derby”, pays tribute to a symbol of British style, its location in the Square Mile and the building’s history as a bank.
