ZEITRAUM opens new student residence in Krakow’s Krowodrza district

A new student residence, ZEITRAUM Racławicka, has opened in Krakow’s Krowodrza district, offering single rooms and communal spaces designed to support both study and leisure. The facility, located a few minutes from the city centre, aims to meet the evolving needs of students balancing education, work, and personal interests.

Zdena Noack, CEO of ZEITRAUM Student Housing, noted that the concept behind Racławicka was developed in response to changes in student lifestyles over the past five years. Many students now work while studying and seek accommodation that combines privacy with opportunities for social engagement.

The residence at 58 Racławicka Street is close to Kraków Główny station and includes individual rooms with private bathrooms and kitchens, along with communal spaces such as a yoga room, a games room, and shared kitchens. The average monthly rent for a single room is approximately PLN 1,800.

The building features 249 rooms (289 beds) and also houses serviced apartments in a separate wing. The interior design incorporates custom-made furniture and neutral colours to create a calm environment. Residents receive starter packs including bedding and kitchen essentials.

The common areas are built around the “Chill & Thrill” concept, offering both quiet spaces for relaxation and more active social zones. Amenities include a gym, laundry facilities, and an “adventure board” in the lobby to encourage students to explore Krakow and connect with peers.

ZEITRAUM Racławicka offers flexible leasing options, allowing students to book accommodation for varying periods and complete all formalities online. Staff are available around the clock, both on-site and through digital communication channels.

Located near major universities such as AGH, the University of Economics, Jagiellonian University, and the Krakow University of Technology, the residence offers convenient transport links, including nearby Łobzów railway station.

Noack emphasised that the residence is intended to serve as a space where students can rest, study, and live independently while enjoying the cultural offerings of central Krakow.

The project was developed by ZEITGEIST Asset Management, the parent company of ZEITRAUM.
