As some classes will finish their studies by the end of August and might plan to leave Hamburg, there is a small chance for you to take over a room or apartment from a KLU graduate. Please feel free to connect with more than 500 KLU students and join our Facebook group „Students at THE KLU“ (please answer the questions to gain entry). You might also want to check out the facebook group "Freie Wohnung / WG in Hamburg" where people are posting about free flats and rooms.

Finally, we would like to list you some general websites which might be useful for you when looking for housing on your own:

The websites below are serviced portals that connect landlords and renters, verifying and sometimes also photographing rooms.
