We know that an important part of your stay is a comfortable and friendly accommodation. We want you to be happy where you are living, so that you can study well and enjoy your stay. This is why, on request, Koinè Center offers a  free of charge accommodation booking service for the duration of your italian language course.

When you book your course, please choose the type of accommodation you desire and we will be glad to arrange it: host family (with/without meals, with/without the use of the kitchen facilities), shared apartment, independent apartment, B&B or hotel room.

Accommodation is at students' disposal from the Sunday before the beginning of your Italian course until the Saturday morning following the end of the course.
