With our range of student halls of residence we aim to contribute to creating good living conditions for the time you spend living in Leipzig, so that you can study successfully. Studentenwerk Leipzig has over 5.200 rooms in 15 halls of residence. Our student halls of residence are very different. They vary in size, location within the city and, in some cases, in the level of living comfort they offer.

In 2022 and 2023, after a long period of stability (since 2014), rents were adjusted, in particular due to drastic increases in electricity and heating costs.

Rooms are furnished with a bed, desk/table, chair, wardrobe (sometimes with upper storage) and shelving. Each type of accommodation includes a furnished kitchen and sanitary facilities. Unfurnished rooms can also be rented at Mainzer Straße 2a. In addition to internet access (600 GB/Month), in each of the rooms there are connection points for a telephone and for cable/satellite television. Residents are required to pay licence/GEZ fees themselves.
