Accommodation in Hungary
Options include university dormitories and private flats in Budapest and other cities.
Kollégium rooms are the cheapest option, but places are limited and go first to scholarship holders.
Shared rooms start around €200 and single rooms around €280–420, usually with all bills included.
A room in a shared flat is €350–550, and a studio or one-bedroom is €500–800. Debrecen, Pécs and Szeged are cheaper.
Where to look
University dormitories, private dormitories such as Lux Rooms and Dean’s Home, and Facebook groups like Erasmus Life Budapest.
Good to know
- Private dorms may ask for two months’ deposit.
- Fake listings circulate each September, so see the room or video call first.
- Guides most often name Budapest districts V, VI, VII, XI and XIII as student-friendly areas.
Where students live
Districts V, VI, VII, XI and XIII are the student-friendly areas in Budapest. Debrecen, Szeged and Pécs are 30–40% cheaper.
Before you pay or move
- Get the contract in writing and read the rent, deposit, notice period and which utilities are included.
- See the room in person or on a live video call before you send any money.
- Ask how much the deposit is and when it is returned.
- Keep your admission letter and a passport copy ready, because housing offices and landlords ask for them.
- Book a short stay for your first nights in case your room is not ready.
