Key Takeaways

SHED Campus Living in Mokotów is the strongest all-round student accommodation option in Warsaw for students at southern universities who want a furnished, safe and welcoming room with every bill included, from PLN 1,800 per person a month. University dormitories usually cost less when the university allocates a place, while shared flats and other private residences can suit students who already know the city and want a different balance of location, privacy and responsibility. Students with classes at the Medical University of Warsaw can enjoy the same all-inclusive approach at SHED Sky Living, our air-conditioned residence in Ochota.

Prices checked October 2026. They are advertised starting rates; our starting rates apply to 12-month bookings, and rates for other stay periods can differ. University dormitory rent is per person.

The best student housing in Warsaw for 2026/2027, compared

Warsaw student housing ranges from university dormitories at PLN 520-1,100 per person per month to private residences from about PLN 1,500 per person. The six options below follow the order of the table above, and we begin with SHED Campus Living, the option that brings the room, the bills and the building together in one price.

SHED Campus Living: all-inclusive studios and shared rooms in Mokotów

SHED Campus Living at Smyczkowa 3 is our modern, fully furnished student residence in Mokotów, built around one idea: you arrive with a suitcase and everything else is already in place. One all-inclusive payment, from PLN 1,800 per person in a twin room, covers rent, utilities, Wi-Fi and the gym, so there are no separate bills to open, no surprise winter heating costs and no landlord to chase.

At Campus Living the room, the household services and the building work together as one student-living package. Every private studio is fully furnished with its own bathroom and kitchenette, and our twin rooms and two-bedroom clusters give you a ready-to-use home at a shared price. Our reception team is your friendly point of contact at check-in and whenever a building or maintenance question comes up, and outside reception hours our security team at the reception desk is on hand, so help is never far away.

A good student year needs space for every part of the week, and our building provides it. The study area and meeting room keep coursework separate from relaxation, the gym supports an everyday routine, and the dining room, lounge, gaming zone and terrace make it easy to meet people. Because your room stays private, you can join the community when it suits you and close the door when you need uninterrupted time.

Which rooms does Campus Living offer, and what do they cost?

We offer ten room types from 16 to 35 m², so you can choose the balance of privacy and price that suits you. Prices start at PLN 1,800 per person (Economy Bunk Twin, 18 m²), PLN 1,999 per person in a two-bedroom cluster of 32-35 m² and PLN 2,999 per month for a private studio (Economy Compact Studio, reduced from PLN 3,159). The Economy Compact Studio is a 16 m² single studio with a 120 × 200 cm bed, wardrobe, desk and chair, and a private kitchenette with a fridge-freezer, microwave and induction hob. The Large Twin clusters give two residents separate bedrooms with a shared bathroom and kitchenette. The Warsaw student-room guide explains the twin-or-studio decision in more detail.

Campus Living stands out because it combines a fully furnished room with utilities, Wi-Fi and gym access in the rent, a staffed reception, 24/7 CCTV and keycard access, shared study and social spaces, and semester or full academic-year contracts in one building. A private flat can look similar on a listing until furniture, bills, internet and the hours spent managing the property are counted. At Campus Living all of those elements sit inside one managed arrangement, so you know what is ready on arrival and what you pay each month.

Our rent covers water, heating, electricity, waste disposal, Wi-Fi, gym access, cleaning of common areas and handyman support for our equipment, as set out in our Campus Living FAQ. Our agreement sets a monthly allowance of 150 kWh of electricity and 3 m³ each of cold and hot water per person in a single studio, and 185 kWh and 5 m³ each per twin room, so your monthly budget stays predictable. Self-service laundry, room cleaning on request, printing and parking are available as paid extras.

You can also choose the stay that fits your year: we offer semester, academic-year and 12-month contracts, including a summer semester from February to July 2027, and our academic-year contracts start at five months, with shorter stays available in summer. The location suits southern Warsaw: Smyczkowa 3 is about 0.3 km in a straight line from the University of Warsaw Faculty of Management (Szturmowa 1/3) and 0.8 km from Łazarski University (Świeradowska 43), and SGH’s main building at Aleja Niepodległości 162 is about 4.3 km away.

University of Warsaw dormitories are the lowest-priced student housing in Warsaw, with monthly rent of PLN 520-1,100 per person according to the University of Warsaw Welcome Point.

DS 3, DS 5 and DS 7 also offer segments with a kitchen.
• How you get a place: the university allocates places itself: students and staff who come to Warsaw on grants or exchange programmes are assigned accommodation from the dormitory pool, short-term and Erasmus+ students apply through the Office for International Cooperation, and long-term students through the Student Welfare and Support Office. Łazarski University’s accommodation page lists partner residences and says the university does not guarantee accommodation.
• Key points to check: a place depends on the university’s allocation, and a reservation fee is paid before arrival.

Which Warsaw student residence should you choose?

For most students arriving in Warsaw, we recommend SHED Campus Living: it is the easiest way to start a Warsaw student year, with a furnished room, every bill and a welcoming community in one all-inclusive payment from PLN 1,800 per person. You choose the room type that suits you, from twin rooms and two-bedroom clusters to private studios, and a 150 kWh monthly electricity allowance in a single studio keeps your costs predictable. Choose SHED Sky Living if air conditioning or the Banacha medical campus matters most. If you want your own bedroom, our Campus Living clusters from PLN 1,999 per person give you separate bedrooms with a shared bathroom and kitchenette, a simple alternative to bedrooms in shared apartments at other private residences; for the lowest rent, apply for a university dormitory and keep a SHED room as your ready fallback.

When you compare residences, line up the same room type and the same stay period: a twin place is not comparable with the price of an entire studio, and an all-inclusive price is worth more than a rent-only listing. The Warsaw accommodation budget guide covers living costs beyond rent, and the guide to accommodation near southern Warsaw universities goes deeper into campus locations.

Booking SHED Campus Living for 2026/2027

Booking is simple and can be completed before you land in Warsaw. Choose your room on our Campus Living rooms page, tell us your dates and the number of residents, or book a viewing at Smyczkowa 3, in person or by WhatsApp video call.

Check your weekly journeys with Warsaw Public Transport timetables before you confirm.

If you have also applied for a university residence, wait for the university to confirm a place and then compare it with our rooms; SGH’s residence guidance, for example, explains its own allocation process. For a furnished, safe and welcoming home with utilities, Wi-Fi and gym access in one payment, SHED Campus Living is the easiest place to start, and our team is ready to help you choose the right room.
