I have a temp hostel for 15 days, from where should I start looking for a rental place in Dublin?

I am a student looking for shared accommodation in Dublin, currently, I have a temp. Kindly suggest the best way to search for rented long-term accommodation.

Thanks!

Daft.ie is the only show in town and would need to be monitored very regularly as properties and rooms are snapped up quickly. Good luck with your search. It won’t be easy due to the lack of accommodation available.

Maybe also check with your college and student union. They might have a list of rooms available.

Contact your college, they all have accommodation services specifically for students.

I assume you are an Erasmus or post grad if you are starting in Jan. You need to get on to the accomodations services in you college, every day if necessary. They should be able to turn something up for you but persistence pays. If you are just coming to a language school and they have not sorted accomodations in advance god help you, use daft.ie as mentioned above.

So you moved to a new country 2 weeks before Christmas and didn’t bother looking for accommodation before moving?

Sure..good luck.

I posted to get the guidance, not a negative motivation and it's 3 weeks after Christmas. Though thank you for your time.

Hi, Thank you for the Info, there is one challenge, without checking the locality physically how to finalise any place?

Can I ask you, what’s your monthly budget for accommodation?

You could reach out to the Indian Dublin community through social media.

Contact the college as soon as you can. Or try to find some contact here through one of your friends etc.

The above posts might not have been explicit about it but there is a severe shortage of accommodation in Dublin.
