When planning your studies in Krakow, an important decision is not only choosing a university, but also where to live. It is especially important to start looking for suitable accommodation during the summer, when the market offers the widest range of options at different price points.

Student dormitories as a proven solution

For people starting their adventure with Krakow, student dormitories are a practical solution. Student residences offer comprehensive infrastructure – from shops and clinics to recreational spaces. Their strategic location near universities is an additional advantage, helping save time on commuting.

A modern alternative – private student residences

In recent years, the student housing market in Krakow has undergone a real revolution thanks to private student residences. Réside Etudes Group, as one of the leaders in this segment, offers modern accommodation resembling apartments. Students can choose between single and double rooms with a kitchenette and a private bathroom.

What sets private student residences apart?

  • Comfortable rooms with a private bathroom and kitchenette
  • Shared spaces that encourage integration and personal growth
  • Professional service and 24/7 security
  • Locations in the city center
  • An international student community
  • Quiet study and relaxation zones

Renting an apartment – an alternative to a dorm

Dorm life does not suit everyone, especially when it means sharing space with randomly assigned roommates. In such a case, it is worth considering renting a room or an apartment with friends.

Advantages of private renting:

  • The ability to choose your roommates
  • Greater privacy
  • Flexibility in organizing the space

Disadvantages of private renting:

  • Higher overall costs (rent + utilities)
  • The need to handle administrative matters on your own
  • Often long lease terms

Transport and location

When choosing a place to live in Krakow, it is worth paying attention to transport connections with your university. Not every district offers direct transport to the campus. Private student residences, such as those offered by Réside Etudes, are strategically located in the city center, which makes daily commuting to classes much easier.

Who is a private student residence for?

A private student residence is the perfect solution for people who:

  • Value comfort and independence
  • Want to live in the city center
  • Are looking for an international environment
  • Need professional administrative support
  • Want to combine privacy with life in a student community

Summary

Choosing where to live during your studies is a decision that will significantly affect the quality of your student life. Private student residences, such as those offered by Réside Etudes, are the perfect middle ground between the comfort of your own apartment and the social character of traditional dormitories. They combine the best features of both solutions while offering a high standard and professional service.
