Accommodation options

A small number of individual furnished flats are available starting at €450 per month, less for shorter visits (water, electricity & wifi charges all included). Early booking is advised.

For a furnished room in a flat shared with one or two other students, a rental of €400 per room per month (including all bills as above) is usual. Shorter stays are reduced but rentals may vary according to season.

Of course, it is also possible to find accommodation on your own through one of the many sites that offer sublets.

If you need help with finding accommodation, please complete the relevant field in your application form and we shall e-mail you information about what is currently available.  The following options are available

1. Hotels  A single room in a modest hotel starts at about 50 Euros per day but if you research through booking.com or trivago.com better deals are available – but not usually during the summer months (high season for Greece). There is a great variety of hotels (and prices) in the centre of Athens. The rooms are usually air-conditioned.

2. Booking.com is where you may be able to find a flat or a hotel
