Housing in the heart of Aarhus

Vestergade Kollegiet

Vestergade Kollegiet is a small and cozy hall of residence located in the heart of Aarhus. It does not get more central than this. Here you can rent either a room or an entire apartment. The busy city life is just outside the front door, but you can lean back and relax in the yard, when you need some time to breathe.

The building is from the late 1800 century and has been renovated multiple times since then, but the old charm is still around. Note that there are no parking spaces available that belong to Vestergade Kollegiet. However, you can park your bicycle safely in the basement, and everything you need will be close by anyway.

Cleaning of the shared areas

At Vestergade Kollegiet, we have introduced a cleaning arrangement where one of the residents receives a small payment from each tenancy every two months to clean the common areas. In this way, we avoid spending the residence hall’s funds on external cleaning services.

Common room

At Vestergade Kollegiet, there is a common room available for residents to use. It is also possible to rent the room for private events.

The common room includes a PlayStation 2 with a few games, though residents are of course welcome to use their own games as well. The PlayStation can be borrowed against a deposit in the form of a driver’s licence or similar identification. The television in the common room includes the full channel package.

In the bicycle basement, there is a table tennis table that can be moved into the common room. Bats and a net are available in the cupboard, but residents must bring their own balls.
