Galway Cultural Institute | Student Residential Accommodation
Residential accommodation
Residential accommodation offers students a more independent option than living with a host family. All our residential accommodation is modern, bright and situated in great locations around Galway City.
Our residences are:
• Bright, modern, fully-equipped apartments or houses.
• All situated within 10 to 45 minutes' walk from the school.
• Self-catering
You will be sharing accommodation with other international students from the school and will have a chance to practice you English, share you culture and learn from each other. You will be able to use all the facilities at the residence, cook for yourself, invite friends over for a visit but all guests are required to leave the residence by 23.00.
It is important for you and your housemates that you treat each other with respect and adhere to the house rules. In this way you can ensure that everyone has the best experience possible during their stay.
English must be spoken at all times.
The key rules that you need to follow are:
- Students are required to fill in and sign a Residential Student Contract agreeing to abide by the rules and regulations of GCI / GBS residential accommodation. By signing the form, you are agreeing that you abide by the rules and regulations, respect the property, other tenants, and pay for any breakages, rules infringements, damage caused, lost keys, antisocial behaviour, noise including causing annoyance to neighbours in a disapproval manner. Parties are strictly forbidden.
- Any breakages or problems with your accommodation must be reported to the GBS team immediately in order for us to fix it.
- The city of Galway operates a strict recycling policy; please follow the directions for recycling that can be found in your residence.
- Bicycles cannot be kept inside the residence; there is space at the side of house where they can be parked.
- All students will be provided with one set of bed linen for their stay at the residence - 1 pillow slip, 1 sheet and 1 duvet cover. Towels are not provided.
- During your stay at the residence parties or loud music is strictly forbidden. There is a no noise policy between 23.00 and 07.00.
