Student Residences

ILA Dublin has partnerships with a number of Dublin’s best student residences. You will be within a 30-minute walk from the ILA center or a short bus ride from the DCU campus, living in a vibrant international student community close to the city center.

Each student has a private en-suite room in a 6 or 8-bedroom apartment. The common area is shared and includes full kitchen, lounge area and television. 24-hour security is provided and students have access to other facilities such as on-site laundry (modest charge), games room, TV lounge, study areas and in some case a gym.

We have a long-standing relationship with Highlight Parkgate, click here to visit their website for more images and information.

Homestays

Living with a local host family offers more than just a place to stay, it’s an opportunity to forge deep connections, gain insights into Irish life, and create lifelong memories. Our carefully selected host families open their doors with warmth and enthusiasm, welcoming you into their homes as one of their own.

From shared meals and conversations to exploring the city together, you'll discover the rich tapestry of Dublin's culture firsthand. Please note however that families do not live in city center and a commute of 30-45 minutes would be normal. Breakfast and evening meal are provided together with light laundry.
