Accommodation options for RSU International Students

Dear Students,

Please find below information about several accommodation options we offer. These are mostly for those of you who have not found apartments in Riga. We suggest long-term stay options since they already have RSU students living there and offer friendlier prices.

In the first few days after arrival some students also choose to stay in various student hostels around Riga, like Naughty Squirrel, Posh Backpackers, Dome Pearl Hostel etc. However, please note that RSU does not have any cooperation with these hostels, but if the price and services suit you, feel free to contact them via www.hostels.com.
