Prices for all accommodation options are quoted on the CESA Course Finder.

Standard Apartment  20yrs+

  • Offered to students aged 20 yrs +
  • Approx 20/30 minutes commute to school

In the student apartments you will share a flat with other students studying at the language school. You have the option to book a twin room (shared with another student, generally of a different nationality) or a single room just for yourself. In both cases, you will share the kitchen and bathroom with fellow students. Facilities include; WiFi/WLAN internet connection, a dishwasher and washing machine. Early reservations for July, August and September are essential, or you will miss out!
A deposit will be required on arrival.

German hosts / Private Household  16yrs+

  • Offered to students aged 16 yrs +
  • 20/40 minutes commute to school

Students like to stay with German hosts as a way of increasing their opportunities to talk German out of class. The hosts offer single room accommodation on a half-board basis (breakfast and evening meal) or breakfast only basis.
The hosts provide you with a chance to sample German daily life first-hand, however bear in mind Munich is a large city and commuting to college from your host is inevitable (allow 20/40 minutes+ for the one way trip to college). Public transport in the city is well priced, efficient and user friendly but unavoidable in a city of this size.
There is no such thing as a classical “host family”, so your accommodation could be with a traditional family of father, mother, two kids and a dog or a single mother and her child, a single person or a couple. In any case, the school will do all they can to match your needs and interests.
If you have any special requests early reservation for the summer period is essential.

Studio apartments  18yrs+

  • Offered to students aged 18 yrs +
  • Sole occupancy studios
  • 15/25 minutes commute to school

This type of accommodation offers a high standard to those students who would like to have their own private apartment space. There is a fully equipped kitchenette, a private bathroom plus additional amenities.
A deposit is required on arrival.
