Flat-Share Rooms & Co-Living in Essen – Furnished, All-Inclusive
Looking for a furnished room in Essen – for a few weeks, a semester or the length of a project? In our shared flats you get your own room without having to worry about furniture, a deposit or utility bills.
Every room is fully furnished: a bed with fresh linen, space for your clothes, a workspace and Wi-Fi throughout the flat. You share the kitchen and bathroom with the other residents – which is exactly what makes co-living considerably cheaper than your own flat – from €450 per month with us, all utilities included.
What you get – and what you save
Your own flat in Essen means: a deposit, buying furniture, signing up for electricity and internet, a minimum rental period and a utility bill at the end. With a room in one of our shared flats, none of that applies. You move in with your suitcase, everything is there, and the price is fixed from the start – electricity, water, heating and high-speed Wi-Fi are included.
The shared areas are cleaned regularly, and we provide bed linen and towels. Check-in is keyless and available around the clock, so you do not have to work around office hours.
Our shared flats in Essen
We currently rent out 21 rooms across five shared flats:
- Three flats in Essen-Frohnhausen with four rooms each, a shared kitchen and one bathroom. Conveniently located in the west of the city with fast A40 access and short trips into the centre and to the trade fair.
- One centrally located flat with four rooms – ideal if you want to reach the city centre and main station on foot or with a few minutes of public transport.
- One flat in Essen-Kray with five rooms and a large terrace that becomes the meeting point in summer. Good connections towards Gelsenkirchen, Bochum and Dortmund.
Who co-living works for
Work crews and project teams: travelling alone or in pairs means paying only for your own room instead of a whole flat. For crews we reserve several rooms in the same flat so you stay together – with an invoice showing VAT for the company on request. You will find all the details on our page workers' rooms & apartments in Essen.
Commuters and career starters: if you work in Essen during the week or have just started out, a room is the flexible solution – without tying yourself down long term.
Transition periods: moving house, renovating, a separation, or the new flat is only free in two months – a furnished room bridges exactly that phase without paying rent twice.
How to enquire
Just tell us when you need a room and for how long – via the form, WhatsApp or email. We usually get back to you within a few hours with the available rooms and the price for your dates. You book directly with us, without portal fees and with a dedicated contact person.
Best price guarantee: Found it cheaper on Airbnb or Booking? We refund the difference + a 20 € credit.

Wir waren als 4-köpfige Familie vor Ort. Die Wohnung ist klein aber fein. Ein Supermarkt ist fußläufig gut erreichbar. Die Lage zur Zeche Zollverein ist super (25 Minuten zu Fuß). Der Stellplatz vor der Tür ist perfekt.
