Dear students,
We would like to inform you that due to the emergency repair of the roof damaged by last year's hailstorm at Vinařská dormitory, there is a change in the summer accommodation of Vinařská dormitory. We are forced to make this change in the interest of the comfort of students who would be disturbed by noise from the reconstruction. In addition to the roofing replacement, the roof sunbreaks on all buildings must be removed.
According to the new timetable, the Mánesova and Sladkého dormitories in Brno-Komárov will be open for students during the holidays, with a total capacity of 730 beds. In recent years, the interest of Masaryk University students in summer accommodation has been lower than the offered capacity. Last year, only 570 beds were used over the holidays, so this year the chosen capacity of the two open dormitories should be fully sufficient. We are prepared to open additional capacity in case of higher student demands.
The booking period for holiday accommodation for students starts on 1.6.2024, as previously announced.
Thank you for your understanding.
New facade, thermal insulation and windows at Vinařská; renovation of roof terraces at Bří. Žůrků or ongoing two-year modernisation at Kounicova – Masaryk University is paying a lot of attention to regular maintenance of all nine dormitories operated by the Accommodation and Catering Services (ACS). Tens to hundreds of millions are invested into renovations or small-scale repairs annually.
In spite of increasing costs, Masaryk University is not planning to increase the accommodation prices as such. The rent in 2025 will only reflect the inflation rate according to the data published by the Czech Statistical Office (CZSO).
