Welcome to the Housing Office!
The Housing Office offers furnished accommodation in Groningen for foreign guests of one of the Universities. If you come to our city to study or work at either the University of Groningen (RUG) or the Hanze University of Applied Sciences, Groningen (HG) you are welcome to apply for housing with our organization.

Short stay contracts
We offer rooms based on short stay contracts. This means that guests can rent accommodation with a minimum stay of 5 months and with a maximum stay of 12 months. All contracts start from the first day of any month and end on the last day of a month.

Housing in Groningen
Important to know is that housing in Groningen is scarce and expensive. Housing Office is a non-profit organization. We have a cooperation with both the University of Groningen (RUG) and the Hanze University of Applied Sciences, Groningen (HG). This makes it possible to rent our rooms and to provide you with our service.
