University Facilities
Accommodation
International students at Masaryk University live in the university residence at Vinarska street, a complex of buildings
constructed in the late 1980s in one of Brno's most pleasant neighborhoods.
Accommodation is in double rooms, each with an en suite bathroom and kitchenette. The price of the room for one student is approximately 120 euro.
Most of the rooms are wired for Internet access; there is a modest monthly charge for using this service. For those without their own computers or laptops,
there are also special computer rooms, for which a small fee per hour is paid. The complex also includes a gymnasium, music rooms,
a photo lab, a student canteen and buffet, and a bistro that is open in the evenings.
Thanks to the convenient public transport, the university's faculties are within easy reach.
