About Dublin
Why students choose Dublin
Dublin asks two questions at once. The first is which campus: Trinity is in the middle of the city, University College Dublin is at Belfield to the south east, Dublin City University is at Glasnevin to the north, and Technological University Dublin is at Grangegorman to the north west. The second question is harder. Dublin has the least slack of any rental market on this site, purpose-built student housing included, and arriving without something arranged is a genuinely difficult position to be in.
Rathmines and Ranelagh are the classic student areas, south of the canal, within cycling distance of both Trinity and Belfield and well served by buses. Drumcondra and Glasnevin sit north and suit DCU, with Croke Park between them and the centre. Smithfield and Stoneybatter are the closest residential areas to Grangegorman and have changed a great deal in the last decade. Portobello and the Dublin 8 streets around the canal are central, lively and mixed. Donnybrook and Ballsbridge are the expensive option, closest to Belfield. The city centre itself holds most of the purpose-built blocks, which is often the most realistic route into this market even though it is rarely the cheapest.
New to booking student accommodation?
Room types, what bills included really covers, when to book, and what to check if you are arriving from abroad.
Residence, shared house or studio in Dublin?
Purpose-built student accommodation offers the clearest route to a furnished room with managed facilities and bills that are easier to predict. An en-suite shares a kitchen, while a studio is self-contained. Private rooms in shared houses and apartments can cost less, but availability, furniture and utility arrangements vary.
Choose by campus before room format. Belfield, Glasnevin, Grangegorman and the city centre point in different directions, and crossing Dublin every day can erase the value of a cheaper address.
What should you confirm before booking in Dublin?
MoJO currently lists 17 Dublin student stays, with published prices from £225.42/week. Compare the full contract cost, bills, deposit, payment schedule and transport. In a tight market, speed matters, but it should never replace checking who receives the money and what room the agreement actually secures.
Get the address, room category, move-in date, cancellation policy and refund terms in writing. Verify the operator or landlord, keep payment records and do not transfer money solely on the strength of messages or photographs.
Top Dublin universities and campus links
Dublin's student population is anchored by Trinity College Dublin, University College Dublin, Dublin City University, and Technological University Dublin. When choosing student accommodation in Dublin, most students prioritise the walking-distance or single-transfer commute to their own department, since it saves 60 to 90 minutes a day on lectures, labs, and evening study.
On each Dublin property page you will see the exact minute count to nearby universities and whether the campus is served by direct public transport. If you already know your university, filter by it before comparing rooms, it saves a lot of back and forth.
Best areas for students in Dublin
The best areas for student accommodation in Dublin include Rathmines and Ranelagh, City centre and Dublin 2, Drumcondra and Glasnevin, Smithfield and Stoneybatter, and Portobello and Dublin 8. Each has a distinct mix of student housing, cafes, supermarkets, and public transport connections, so the "best" area really depends on which university you attend and what kind of neighbourhood you want to live in.
If you are new to Dublin, aim for neighbourhoods with a high student population and good late-night public transport. Areas near your university's main campus are safest for evening walks home and mean you can lie in for 9 AM lectures.
Cost of living for students in Dublin
The cost of student accommodation in Dublin typically starts from £225.42/week, and rent is usually the single biggest line item in a student's budget. Beyond rent, students in Dublin typically budget for groceries, public transport, mobile data, and social spending.
If Dublin rents feel steep, it can be worth comparing with cities like Paris and Bordeaux: the same weekly budget often stretches further, and some Ireland universities have satellite campuses across multiple cities.

Getting around
Dublin Bus does most of the work and the 39a and 46a to Belfield are the routes UCD students learn first. The Luas is two tram lines that do not naturally serve the universities, so check whether yours is any use to you before paying for a Leap card you will not swipe. The DART runs along the coast and is excellent if you end up living in Blackrock or Clontarf. Cycling is the fastest way across central Dublin and the canal routes are pleasant, though the city is less separated from traffic than Amsterdam or Copenhagen. A Leap card and the TFI Live app will between them cover almost everything.
Frequently asked questions
- Prices in Dublin typically start from £225.42/week, depending on room type, location, and how early you book. Purpose-built student rooms with bills included are usually the best value overall, since utilities and WiFi are already priced in.
- For a September move-in, most students book their Dublin accommodation between May and August. Booking earlier gives you the widest choice on room type, floor, and price. For January or summer intakes, book two to three months ahead.
- Your contract is signed directly with the accommodation provider, not with HouseForStudents, and we list only recognised student accommodation operators. Listing details for our 17 Dublin properties come from the operator's own site and we re-check them regularly, but always confirm the price and the terms in writing with the provider before you pay. Ask the operator specifically whether your contract is a tenancy or a licence, because statutory deposit protection applies to tenancies and most purpose-built student accommodation is let on a licence.
- Purpose-built student accommodation in Dublin commonly includes electricity, water, heating, WiFi, and contents insurance in the weekly rate, but the package is set by each operator and is not the same everywhere. Ask the operator exactly what the rent covers, and what is charged on top, before you pay anything.
- Most Dublin PBSA properties accept either a UK-based guarantor, an international guarantor, or pay a one-time fee in lieu. If you cannot provide a guarantor, ask our team when you enquire and we will filter for properties that do not require one.
Prices and availability on this page were last checked on . Rooms and rents change often, so confirm both with the operator before you pay anything.
