Hostel facilities, Indian food availability, campus safety, and accommodation options at Erasmus University Rotterdam.

Hostel arrangements and costs vary by room type and academic year. Confirm current availability and fees directly with Erasmus University Rotterdam before making any payments.
Accommodation overview
EUR does not arrange housing for every student and reserves accommodation for approximately 25% of incoming international students; most students search the private market. EUR reports room rates commonly starting around €700 and ranging to about €1,000 per month, while its budgeting guidance uses approximately €1,200 per month for living costs including housing, food, insurance, books and transport. Housing is competitive, so students should secure a room before travelling.
Food & daily living
Woudestein has the Erasmus Food Plaza, campus cafés and several lunch locations. Rotterdam's broad international food market gives students access to many cuisines, but availability, ingredients and prices vary by venue. Students with religious, allergy-related or medical dietary needs should inspect menus and ask providers directly rather than assume a universal meal plan.
Campus & lifestyle
Woudestein is EUR's main campus, about 15 minutes by bicycle from Rotterdam city centre and connected by tram, metro and bus. The campus includes the University Library, Polak and Sanders study spaces, Erasmus Food Plaza, cultural venues and Erasmus Sport, which offers more than 50 sports. EUR also operates locations in central Rotterdam, Erasmus MC and The Hague.
Safety & student support
EUR provides campus security and publishes current emergency and crisis guidance through its campus and student-support services. Students should use Dutch emergency number 112 for urgent police, fire or medical assistance and follow EUR's current campus instructions. Housing fraud is a documented risk in Rotterdam's competitive rental market, so applicants should use contracts and verify landlords before paying deposits. The Erasmus Student Service Centre supports questions about registration and tuition, while EUR's International Office covers international admissions, immigration, orientation, arrival, exchange and scholarships. Faculties and programmes provide academic advisers, and international students can join orientation activities. Non-EEA students should complete the university's current immigration and financial-evidence steps before arrival.
