If you’re travelling with friends or a partner and want more privacy, renting a full flat might be a great choice, even though it can be more expensive.

Student rooms for rent in Venice

Living in a room in Venice is one of the most popular options for students. We'll tell you about the different options available here.

Sharing a flat with people from different countries and cultures can be challenging for some people. Venice is relatively expensive, and rent is no exception. There are cheaper areas like Mestre or Marghera, but keep in mind that staying on the main island can be expensive, with room rents reaching up to €500 per month.

To lower this cost, you can consider renting a shared room. This is a great option if you’re already travelling with a friend from home since sharing a room with a stranger might not be appealing.

To find a good room in Venice, you need to act fast, as they get rented out quickly. Location is crucial, so use the Erasmus Play search engine to quickly access available rental listings and find the most convenient one.
