We are looking for a friendly and reliable roommate for our international WG in Kreis 6 (between Schaffhauserplatz and Milchbuck).


The WG

Currently, we are 8 people in the WG, 4 girls and 4 guys, between 23 and 28 years old. We are 5 (PhD and master’s) students and 3 young professionals from Belgium, France, Italy, Spain, the US, Switzerland, and Germany. We enjoy doing things together, whether that’s cooking, playing board games, watching TV or hiking/biking in the mountains. Of course, we also respect each other’s alone time. We’re a diverse, open-minded, and friendly WG, where you will hopefully soon feel at home.

We speak English at home.


The room

Fully furnished: Queen size bed (1.40m wide), desk, chair and large closet.
Price: CHF 1000 per month, including Internet, electricity, water, heat, and a cleaning team that comes once a week.
The room is in the semi-basement of a 4-story house.


The house

It’s a big house: 4 floors including the basement. The kitchen is well-equipped with a dishwasher, microwave, and even a pizza oven, among other things. We have two washing machines and a dryer in the basement. There is also a small backyard with a covered hangout area and a grill. Once a week, a cleaning team comes to clean the common areas (kitchen, bathrooms, living room, garden, etc).


The area

The neighborhood is quiet with many families. There are quite a few restaurants and fun sports facilities close by, like ping-pong, soccer, basketball, ASVZ sports center, Irchelpark (with alpacas!), and Käferberg. You can easily get downtown with public transportation or by walking (10 mins to HB via tram and 30 mins by foot). Our location is very well connected: the Guggachstrasse tram station is a 2 minute walk away, and Milchbuck, Bucheggplatz, Laubiweg, and Schaffhauserplatz are all within an 8 minute walk. It’s a 2 minute walk to the nearest Coop and 8 minutes each to the nearest Migros and a Denner.

Would you like to join our WG? Please tell us a bit about yourself, your background/hobbies, and why you would be a good fit for our WG! Also, tell us what you would consider a green flag and red flag in a shared flat. Looking forward to meeting you!
