Student or internship accommodation: flexible solutions

If you are a student, researcher, young professional, or intern under the age of 30 in Strasbourg, you need a solution that fits your lifestyle. We adapt to your academic or professional constraints, without any fuss. For the duration of an internship, exam session, or summer job, you can book furnished, ready-to-move-in accommodation in a student residence in Strasbourg for a limited period and subject to availability. Just drop off your bags and settle in.

A short stay means maximum flexibility. You choose a duration of a few weeks to several months and adjust it if your internship, classes, or travel plans change. No long-term lease, no heavy commitment: you remain in control of your dates, from check-in to check-out.

It’s also smart for your budget. Why pay for a whole year when you only need accommodation for a short period? You only pay for the period you occupy the property. It’s a smart and practical budget option for students, allowing you to save money for other things.

Geographical flexibility changes your daily life. Our residences are located in strategic locations in Strasbourg. You can settle near your campus, your host company, or your favorite places in the city. You choose where and when you want, according to your priorities.

Services are included, just like for a long stay: access to a laundry room, coworking spaces, and, depending on the location, a shared compost or vegetable garden. You arrive, everything works, and you can focus on what’s important.

A short stay is also a great way to meet people. Sharing spaces for a short period of time can create lasting friendships, expand your academic or professional network, and open you up to other cultures.

Our goal is simple: to simplify your student life in Strasbourg with accommodation that adapts to your changing needs. Whether you’re staying for a few weeks or several months, our short-term rentals are designed for you.

Student Residence in Strasbourg

Résidence étudiante Strasbourg

Choosing a residence in Strasbourg means settling down in the heart of a dynamic and lively European capital, which offers quality education and a simple, pleasant and practical everyday life.

The student dynamic in Strasbourg: Figures and atmosphere

Focus on student numbers and the city’s appeal

Strasbourg attracts more than 60,000 French and international students every year. The University of Strasbourg—heir to Robert Schuman and a benchmark in France—brings together a university, graduate school, university institute, and IUT (University Institute of Technology) on a vast university campus. Between the law school, medical school, science school, arts school, and national schools such as the École nationale supérieure d’architecture (National School of Architecture) and ENGEES (National School of Environmental Engineering and Sustainable Development), the higher education offering is extensive and open to Europe. The city of Strasbourg enjoys a unique status as a European capital with the European Parliament located near the Rhine, which enhances its influence, internships, first job opportunities, and student life.

Proximity to campuses

The main campuses are ideally located near the city center. The Esplanade site is just a few minutes’ walk from the cathedral or Place Kléber, with tram stops all around. The medical school is located near the Civil Hospital, which is convenient for internships and research. Many schools and institutes are close to the train station and shopping streets, making walking, cycling, and taking the tram very easy on a daily basis. Wherever your student residence is located, you will enjoy easy access, quick mobility, and a quality of life that really makes a difference.

Student life and leisure: What to do in Strasbourg?

Strasbourg offers a cultural life in the heart of the city, on the banks of the Ill and Rhine rivers, combining heritage and modernity. Each neighborhood has its own atmosphere, from Krutenau to Esplanade, via the Malraux peninsula, Place Kléber and Place de l’Étoile, to the European quarter.

Cultural activities

Between museums, cinemas, concert halls, university libraries, and repurposed brownfield sites, you’ll have plenty to keep you busy throughout the year. The Malraux site, media libraries, and theaters offer regular programming, often at student rates. Surrounding the European Parliament and other institutions, the European quarter serves as a reminder of Strasbourg’s role in the EU, with major events held on the Robert Schuman esplanade. The unmissable Christmas market transforms the city into a magical village: from your residence, you can reach Place Kléber in a few minutes by tram or on foot to enjoy the lights, chalets, and a hot chocolate break between study sessions. The advantage of Strasbourg is that you are always close to shops, supermarkets, and services that make everyday life easier. You can study in peace and quiet and then enjoy an exhibition, a movie, or an art opening, all just a few tram stops away.

Nightlife and meeting places

The city comes alive in the evening, but without excess and in complete safety. Community bars, concert cafés, waterfront terraces, student hangouts around the campuses: there’s something for everyone. The streets near the center and the train station are accessible and well served by public transportation, with the option of walking or cycling home. You’ll enjoy a safe, convenient city where you’ll quickly feel at home.

Which neighborhood is best for living?

Key neighborhoods and brief descriptions

If you want to be as close as possible to the lecture halls, Esplanade and Krutenau are in the heart of Strasbourg’s university district, between the university, the library, and quiet cafés where you can study. The city center is ideal for those who like to do everything on foot, with the tram, shops, and bus stops just a stone’s throw away, near Kléber and Étoile. Neudorf offers a family atmosphere and excellent access to the campuses. La Meinau, located to the south, benefits from pleasant green surroundings, a nearby supermarket, and easy access to the medical school and the Civil Hospital. Around Malraux, on the waterfront, you can enjoy a pleasant setting for studying during the day and a lively atmosphere for enjoying the evening.

Travel tips and public transportation

Strasbourg is committed to sustainable transport. The tram network runs through the city, with stops in front of campuses, residences, and the city center. The stations around Étoile and Kléber offer quick connections. There are bike paths everywhere, and cycling is often the most convenient way to get to college or school in less than 10 minutes. On foot, everything is close by and accessible, from shopping streets to libraries. From the train station, you can reach your residence in the city center in just a few stops. This accessibility allows you to enjoy the city without wasting time, to balance your studies, internship, and social life, and to explore Europe beyond the Rhine on weekends.
