Book or propose for rent

The Housing Service can assist Members of the personnel and Contractor's personnel (a valid contract with CERN) in finding furnished or unfurnished accommodation on the local private market offered only by private landlords. CERN will not publish offers from regular rental Agencies.

The lists of available flats on the private market are compiled by the CERN Housing Service from offers received from private owners. They are regularly updated with new offers. The standard duration of a lease is one year, but shorter periods, notably in summer, can often be negociated, especially for furnished accommodation.

Please note that according to the legislation, the minimum surface for a room to rent is 9m² in France and 10 m² in Switzerland.

Although the Housing Service can give advice and information on certain aspects of the law and practice, its role is restricted to putting Members of the personnel and Contractor's personnel (or their representatives) in touch with landlords (or their agents).

The Service is not involved in negociations between the parties concerned and cannot take the responsibility for the conclusion or implementation of leases. Neither will it intervene in disputes, litigation etc., between tenants and landlords, agencies etc.
