Orange House

Posted by on Apr 19, 2011 in All, Campus/Faculty, Current students, Housing, No housing?, Prospective students | 0 comments

It is perhaps more accurate to describe the Orange house as a modern apartment complex as it is made up of 75 independent units (or studios). This means that every student who lives there has a large room/kitchen as well as a private toilet and shower. The entrances of the studios are outside, so there is no inside corridors or common rooms. It is located North-East of the city centre.

The first impression that we got during our visit to the Orange House was that the Studios are spacy and comfortable. Everything looked and felt very new, and it really is.

Kornoeljestraat is definitely one of the biggest international student houses in Groningen. It hosts about 250 students from around the world in a massive 10 floors high building. Its location makes it a very suitable accommodation for FEB students since it is only 5 minutes away (biking) from Zernike. All rooms in the building are single and relatively small, but also well affordable. There are common rooms on every floor and four student managers who help the massive student house stay in order and be a good place to live in. Something different about this student house is that there are also a few Dutch students living in the building.
