William Morris Hall is a student hall located just off the campus of Loughborough University in the market town of Loughborough, Leicestershire in the East Midlands region of the United Kingdom. The hall itself is named after the famous British artist William Morris, but it is often shortened to, and known throughout the University as Bill Mo.
The hall dates back to 1950, and in 2006 was closed for two years for refurbishment as it was bought by Unite (a student accommodation company). Until 2006 the hall was a catered hall.
