Finding Accommodation in Berlin
How do you find a place to live in Berlin? What are the options for searching, what should you bear in mind during the search, and what costs should you expect? Here is an overview of information and tips to find accommodation that suits you.
Berlin is constantly bustling, with visitors from all around the world arriving for both short and long stays, so finding accommodation can be a challenge and requires some patience. It is recommended that you begin to arrange the details as early as possible and understand that a short-term accommodation in the first few weeks of your stay might be necessary. It is often easier to find accommodation once you are already in the city. Generally, you can anticipate a monthly rent of around 500 euros for a room in a shared flat and up to 1000 euros for a one-room apartment, depending on the apartment size, condition, and location within the city.
