Everything you need to know about
Finding accommodation in Maastricht
Finding suitable accommodation is one of the most important things to arrange before you start your studies at Conservatorium Maastricht. Student housing in Maastricht is in high demand, so we strongly recommend starting your search as early as possible.
Maastricht is a compact city with a wide range of housing: student residences, shared apartments, studios and private rental properties. Distances are short and cycling is easy, so most neighbourhoods are within easy reach of the city centre and the conservatoire. Popular student areas include Brusselsepoort, Mariaberg, Wyck, Statenkwartier, Emmaplein and Scharn.
Because Maastricht is close to the Belgian border, some students also live in nearby Belgian towns and commute to the conservatoire.
Where to Look for
Housing
If you are new to Maastricht, Maastricht Housing is an excellent place to start. This platform is a collaboration between Maastricht University, Zuyd University of Applied Sciences and the Jan van Eyck Academy and connects students with a variety of accommodation providers. Other websites frequently used by students:
- Kamernet
- Pararius
- Huurwoningen
- Hospi Housing

Some agencies and platforms charge registration or service fees. You do not have to use an agency: many students find accommodation through private landlords or social media.
