ACCOMMODATION
Instituto Hemingway offers four options for accommodation:
1. Host Family
2. Shared Apartment
3. Student Residence
4. Hotels and hostels

LIVING WITH A HOST FAMILY

Our carefully selected host families will welcome you straight away and treat you like an additional
member of the family. This way you will feel right at home. Host families also provide the perfect
opportunity to practice what has been learnt in the classroom. Speak to your host family and learn first
hand about the Spanish way of life and their customs.

Living with a host family makes your stay that bit easier because you don’t have to worry about cooking or
laundry. All linen and towels are included. Our families are happy to help you out and you can ask them
about the best places to go in the area and other questions.

You can choose between two options for the host family stay.

Half board, including two meals: breakfast and dinner.

Full board, including three meals: breakfast, lunch and dinner.

Meals will be eaten with the family.

The families can adapt their cooking to your particular needs or special diet if you inform us in advance.

Our families all live close to the school and you can get there either by foot or in no less than 30 minutes
by train, tram or bus.

PRICE

180 € per week for full board.

150 € per week for half board.

SHARED APARTMENT
This is a great option if you prefer a more independent way of living. It is also a perfect way to make
friends of many different nationalities and to automatically know some other students from the school.

You have your own bedroom and there are two shared bathrooms and a shared kitchen and living room.

In your bedroom you will have a bed, desk, wardrobe, blankets and sheets, everything you need to study
and to relax. Don’t forget that you will have to share some household chores with your flat mates even
though the apartment is cleaned privately once a week. The apartment has a fridge-freezer, microwave,
