Host family
Perfect solution to improve your English and benefit from a high level of cultural immersion in Ireland.
The following platforms are devoted to placing students with host families:
Our partner: Host Family Dublin Ireland (HFDI)
As regards registration on the website, 2 options:
- 1) Agency booking :
The agency invoces you (so, you don’t pay the family directly)
Procedure: on the website / Accommodation / Individual / when you click on the form to fill out, please choose the “booking type” from school/agency.
You will receive an email with the invoice to request payment. If the invoice is quite large, you can request a payment in installments with no extra cost.
- 2) Private booking :
You pay the host family directly who decides their own rates. They will also request a deposit (which is not the case with the 1st option).
Procedure: register your own details on the website / Accommodation / Individual / when you click on the form to fill out, please choose the “booking type” personal.
You then receive more information by email from HFDI. There is a fee to pay when you agree to book one of the HFDI’s offers.

| Food | 206€*** | |

- ****28€ varying from €0 to €90
- *****19€ varying from €0 to €200
- ****** 146€ varying from €30 to €500
- Be careful when searching, as there are many frauds. To avoid them, here are some tips:
– Select ads with multiple photos and views of the room, bathroom, common areas, etc.
– Select ads with a detailed description including available amenities, rent details (if utilities are included), deposit details, availability dates, neighbourhood information, etc.
– Select ads with all the advertiser’s contacts (phone number, email address, Whatsapp).
– Check the addresses on Google Map, Google Earth to make sure they are not false addresses.
– Be particularly careful with ads between €500 and €600.
- A guarantor may be required. There are several possibilities:
– an Irish guarantor can be required when booking student accommodation in Ireland. This is usually a requirement when a student is looking to book and pay with an instalment plan – so multiple payment across the year.
– International guarantors may be accepted by some landlords (student accommodation providers) but it depends on each landlords’ policy.
– a full payment in advance for the whole academic year is sometimes required when international students don’t have a guarantor. That’s a very common thing.
- A security deposit may be asked equivalent to one month’s rent or more, depending on the accommodation.
– To secure your accommodation, the first month’s rent may be required. Strongly unadvised to make any payment before signing a contract. All further payments (including security deposit) and length of rent should figure in the tenancy agreement.
- Please consider to get a mobility insurance. Our partners:
– Studcorp (specific platform for EM Normandie students)
– Heyme (information in French, promo code: 76EMN-10)
