Felsgasse Suiten in Vienna — quiet accommodation for language courses and vocational internships

Furnished student apartment in Vienna for training and learning

Felsgasse Suiten are furnished private suites in Vienna-Simmering for a temporary learning or training stay. Bed, desk, fast Wi-Fi and a fully equipped kitchen are provided. There is no agency fee and currently no deposit.

From U3 Enkplatz, the centre of Vienna and many training locations are directly accessible by metro. You book directly with the landlord without a platform commission, receive a written tenancy agreement and can get help with the secondary-residence registration form.

Leisure-related language trip

Accommodation in Vienna for a German language course

For a four-, eight- or twelve-week German course, you need a quiet place to study and everyday practice beyond the classroom. A desk, fast Wi-Fi, kitchen and the U3 connection from Enkplatz make the suite a furnished temporary second home. The language-course stay is agreed for leisure purposes; your habitual residence and permanent centre of life remain elsewhere.

Vocational training context

Vocational internship in early-years education in Vienna

Whether it is a required placement, recognition year or practical phase in a social-education institution, you live furnished for a limited period, can prepare at the desk and receive invoices for your records. A current internship confirmation activates the student and intern rate.

Book a vocational internship with discount

Fast Wi-Fi up to 229 Mbit/s

For online lectures, thesis writing, applications, video calls with your home university or school. Speed-tested and stable.

24/7 self check-in

Arrive at any hour via code lock — whether your train gets in at 10 pm or not until 6 am on a Sunday.

Help with registration

A pre-filled registration form arrives as a PDF with the first rent invoice. I explain how to register the temporary stay in Vienna as a secondary residence.

Direct U3 connection from Enkplatz

From the U3 Enkplatz exit, trains run directly towards the centre; many language schools and internship sites are reachable by metro and connecting lines.

Fully equipped kitchen

Cook for yourself instead of eating out every day — useful for several weeks or months in Vienna. Dishwasher, oven, espresso machine and a large fridge are provided.

Peace of mind — for your parents too

A real written rental contract, an invoice for every payment and payment via Stripe — no money sent to an anonymous private account. Plus a lockable private suite, a quiet residential area and a personal landlord with a legal imprint your parents can contact directly at any time.

No agent fee, no deposit

Unlike Vienna's regular rental market: no 3-month deposit, no agent. Secure payment via Stripe — Visa, Mastercard, Apple Pay.

Travel with a fellow student

Coming as a pair? Book the whole apartment (90 m², 2 separate lockable suites) — cheaper than two single suites, with full privacy.

Frequently asked questions
from students & interns.

What is the minimum stay to qualify for the discount?

At least 31 and no more than 180 nights. This suits longer language courses and vocational internships. Set the full period you need when booking.

What confirmation do I need from my university or school?

A current written course, school, training or internship confirmation is sufficient, showing your name, dates and issuing institution. Send it ahead by email or show it on arrival.

Can I use PAD or other funding?

Yes. Submit the booking confirmation and invoices to your school or funding body as evidence. You receive a proper invoice by email for every payment; ask your training institution directly about PAD funding.

Can two or three of us book together?

Yes — the whole apartment has 2 separate lockable suites for up to 4 guests. You then share the bathroom, WC and kitchen only within your group.

How does Vienna's secondary-residence registration work?

For stays longer than 3 days you must register at the Vienna magistrate as “secondary residence” (Nebenwohnsitz) — required by law. With the first rent invoice you receive your pre-filled registration form as a PDF plus a personal service link: you check and sign it, I countersign as your host and send you the finished copy back. Online registration is possible — no office visit needed.

Can I receive packages?

Yes. You can have packages or DHL/Hermes deliveries sent to the address. The building entrance has a keypad lock; small packages can be left in the hallway by the courier.

What if my internship gets cut short?

Cancellation is free within 48 hours of completing the booking (as long as arrival is still at least 40 days away). After that, under the standard rate the first 30 nights are non-refundable, or 60 nights with 10 or fewer days before arrival or no-show — never more than the booking value. After check-in, a notice period of 30 nights to the end of the month applies (bookings under 90 nights) or 60 nights from receipt (90 nights or more) — the rest is refunded automatically. The online cancellation preview shows you the exact amount before you confirm. Details in our terms.

Is the area safe (for young women)?

Yes. Felsgasse is in the 11th district Simmering — quiet, family-friendly residential area, no tourist street. Subway station Enkplatz operates day and night. Suites are lockable.

Can universities or schools enquire for multiple students at once?

Very gladly — email hello@felsgasse.com with the subject 'school cooperation'. Arrangements for recurring course or internship groups are possible.

What happens after booking — step by step?

1) You immediately receive the booking confirmation by email, including your personal self-service link. 2) After the 48-hour cooling-off period we send you the pre-filled rental contract plus access to the encrypted verification portal. 3) You sign the contract and upload a photo ID — no later than 48 hours before check-in. 4) At the earliest 36 hours before arrival you receive the access code for self check-in by email. The first rent invoice arrives automatically as a PDF once the cooling-off period has passed.

Why do I have to upload an ID — and what happens to my data?

The ID upload (passport or national ID card) is required by law — the registration duty under § 5 of the Vienna Registration Act — and verifies your identity before the access code is released. You upload a phone photo or PDF via the encrypted verification portal (passport: one side, ID card: front and back). The file is stored AES-256 encrypted on a server in Germany and automatically deleted 30 days after check-out — only a cryptographic checksum remains, from which the image cannot be reconstructed.

How does signing the rental contract work?

You can read the full sample rental contract before booking. After the 48-hour cooling-off period you receive your contract pre-filled with your booking data (incl. terms and privacy policy) as a PDF by email. You sign either electronically (qualified e-signature) or by hand: print, sign, and upload the signed copy as a scan or photo via the verification portal. I countersign and email you the fully executed version. Deadline: within 30 days, and no later than 48 hours before check-in — with staged email reminders.

Do I have to pay for the entire stay at once?

No. Payment is made in instalments of 30 nights each: the first at booking, the second 7 days before arrival (provided there are at least 21 days between booking and arrival — otherwise it is merged into the first), and further ones every 30 days during your stay — automatically from the card stored at booking, with a reminder e-mail 3 days before each charge. For every instalment you receive a separate PDF invoice by e-mail; the first after the 48-hour cooling-off period. Your exact payment schedule is shown in the summary before you book.

When do I receive the access code for self check-in?

At the earliest 36 hours before check-in, by email — and only once verification (signed rental contract and ID upload) is fully completed. So please finish both steps in good time. With the code you check in around the clock: check-in from 3 pm, check-out by 11 am.

How exactly does the registration-form (Meldezettel) service work?

Together with the first rent invoice you receive your pre-filled Meldezettel as a PDF plus a personal service link. You check the details, add the ID-dependent fields and sign. Via the link you upload the signed form — I sign as accommodation provider and send the completed version back to you. The service is voluntary and separate from verification, deadlines and cancellation. Registering a secondary residence is a legal requirement for stays over 3 days.

What is the Flex-Light tariff?

For stays of 90 nights or more — where offered in the booking form — there is a discounted Flex-Light tariff alongside the standard tariff. In return: outside the 48-hour cooling-off period, the full booking amount remains due in case of cancellation or early departure — no partial refund, no notice period. If your end date is still uncertain (e.g. your internship might be cut short), choose the standard tariff instead. Details in §5e of the Terms.

Can I extend my stay or immediately book again afterwards?

The maximum stay is 180 nights in a row. A new booking of the same accommodation by the same person is only possible after a 30-day break following check-out — this is a legal requirement (fixed-term residential letting) and applies without exception. So plan your stay with the full duration you need from the start.

Does the accommodation suit a longer German course?

Yes, for bookings between 31 and 180 nights. You have a desk, fast Wi-Fi, a fully equipped kitchen and a direct connection towards the centre from U3 Enkplatz. The leisure-related language trip is recorded in the agreement as the temporary purpose of stay.

Is a vocational internship in early-years education covered?

Yes. A fixed-term vocational internship belongs to the vocational training context. With a current internship confirmation, you can use the student and intern rate.
