Are you looking for student accommodation in Aachen — but the waiting lists are long? Furnished all-in apartments offer you what you really need: move in immediately, everything included, close to campus.
If you want to arrive in Aachen without the hassle of sharing or complicated additional costs: Here you will live ready to move in, modern and in a special atmosphere. Ideal for studying, mastering or starting a job — with everything you need in everyday life.
Anyone moving to Aachen to study is often faced with a challenge: Affordable housing is scarce and places in public student dormitories are quickly taken up. The Studierendenwerk regularly reports long waiting times — especially during the winter semester, when thousands of first-year students search at the same time. Demand for Aachen student accommodation significantly exceeds supply. What to do if the start of the semester is approaching but there is no place in sight in a dormitory? This is where furnished apartments come in. They offer many benefits that you know from a student residence — just without a waiting list, no need to share a flat share and often with more comfort. In the following, you will find out how the two options differ, what you should pay attention to and who which model is suitable for.

There are various ways to stay as a student in Aachen. The Studierendenwerk's public student dormitories are often the first point of contact — and for many also the cheapest option. However, places are limited and waiting times can be several months. Private providers — including concepts such as a “private student residence in Aachen” — offer an alternative. They are usually available more quickly, often better equipped and offer more privacy. In return, rental prices are usually higher. It is important not to downgrade any option on a lump sum basis. For some, the cheap dormitory room is just right — for others, what counts is the ability to plan and the comfort of an all-in apartment. Both are justified.
RWTH Aachen is one of the largest technical universities in Europe — and the demand for housing is correspondingly high. Many students are specifically looking for “Aachen RWTH student residence” or alternatives near the campus.
Our apartments in Guter Hirte are located in Aachen-West, about 10 minutes from the central RWTH locations. The university hospital, Super C and Campus Melaten are easily accessible — whether by bike, by bus or on foot. This is how you combine short distances with a quiet living environment away from the hustle and bustle.
