Housing for rent
This page is for posting private housing availability for researchers, doctoral students and staff at Karolinska Institutet only. All communication between landlords and tenants takes place directly, KI is not involved in that process.
Our university housing service KI Housing - visit the website ki.se/housing - is intended to be a first place to stay. It is responsible for offering furnished apartments and rooms to incoming international students and guest researchers at KI.
If you are interested in posting a housing opportunity, email the information to Ulla.Tunkara@ki.se. Housing listings will be posted for six weeks. If you wish for the listing to remain on the website longer, contact Ulla.Tunkara@ki.se by email.

Room for rent in Hagalund
Furnished room for rent at Hagalundsgatan in Solna. Rent is very economical, around 3900 SEK per month for long-term stay, including electricity, heating, water and 100Mbit Internet, and a nice view over Solna. The flat has a fully equipped kitchen and a large newly renovated bathroom with shower and bathtub, also an extra separate WC and an infra sauna for warming up if weather is cold. At the ground floor there are two common laundry rooms with dryers and there is also a roof outside under which bicycles can be parked.
Rooms are for PhD students, postdocs or research focused master's or else working with something related at KI, SU or KTH or in collaboration with other universities like an assistant, engineer, trainee, internship etc. Undergraduate students could also rent if serious on a quest for a future in academia. The purpose with sharing is to encourage each other to keep getting our papers written and research presented even though we work in different fields. Plus having a quiet and relaxing place to stay in a friendly environment. Rooms are compact but convenient, small but modest, and already furnished with bed, desk, chair and a wardrobe. A basic kit of bed linen and other utensils is also provided. Of course we can use our own but space for storage is limited. Everyone gets their private spot in the common areas where we always clean up after ourselves on a daily basis. Disturbance is minimized so no smoking or pets or noisy loudspeakers. Room door shut means 100% privacy and if busy there is never any obligation to participate in any shared flat activity.
We are mainly looking for long-term tenants (several years). Short-term could also be available but with a higher rent, e.g. for guest researchers doing their PhD elsewhere or depending on circumstances. Feel free to ask.
If interested please present yourself and for easier communication also include your whatsapp/telegram/messenger apps with video feature, especially if not in town at the moment and thus can not come by in person. Usually we pick a date where many applicants get to take a look at the same time. Always best to be months in advance, but for short-term stay (less than a year) include from and to which dates you need a room.

Looking for accommodation
Hej!
My name is Pernelle Pulh, I am a postdoctoral researcher from France who will be joining Karolinska Institutet (Campus Solna) in early April 2026. I am therefore looking for a studio in the Sundbyberg or Solna areas with good public transport access to KI campus Solna.
My budget is up to 10000 SEK/month. I am searching for a calm, cozy place for myself and occasionally my partner (who works remotely for a French company and will join me part-time). We are non-smokers, have no pets, and are very tidy and responsible tenants who value a peaceful home environment. I enjoy cooking, so a well-equipped kitchen would be a big plus.
Please let me know if you have any additional questions and feel free to contact me via email: pulh.pernelle@gmail.com or through WhatsApp: +33603240351.
Thank you very much for your consideration.
Best regards,
Pernelle Pulh

Hello! I’m Buse, a 27 year old PhD student at KI Flemingsberg. I am currently looking for a long-term stay in a furnished room, studio, or apartment located close to Pendeltåg stations.
I currently live in Solna, and my rental agreement ends in August, but I am available to move in anytime after April. My maximum budget is 8,500 SEK per month. I am a non-smoker and I don’t have pets (but I love animals, so if you have any I wouldn't mind to live with them).
I am a cheerful and responsible person who enjoys drawing and yoga. I also love baking, so having access to a kitchen with an oven would make me especially happy. I focus best in a clean and organized environment, so keeping spaces neat is very important to me.
Please feel free to contact me if you think your place could be a good match! Contact: buse.mercan@ki.se

Hey!I’m Gaya, a research assistent at KI, looking for a new place to live. I’m looking for a furnished room/studio/apartment that allows me to commute to the Flemingsberg campus within approximately 1 hour. Currently, I already live in Flemingsberg, but I will have to move out before February 1st. The move-in date is therefore flexible between now and the end of January. It would be great if I could live somewhere until the end of November 2026.
Some more background information about me, I’m 24 years old and from the Netherlands. In my free time I love hiking, visiting museums and watching movies (either at home or at the cinema). Beside that, I love cooking and baking so it would be amazing if your place has a nice kitchen with oven. I like living in a tidy and organized space, so I always clean up. Furthermore, I don’t smoke and don’t own any pets (although I do like animals).
My budget is up to 10,000 SEK/month.
Please let me know if you have any more questions! You can reach me by email at gaya.verhagen@xs4all.nl Kind regards, Gaya

Dear all, My name is Haydn Farrelly, I am moving from the UK to start a postdoc at KI in March 2026. I am looking for an apartment for myself and my partner, Cate. We will both be working full time in Stockholm, we are quiet, tidy, non-smokers, and do not have any pets. We are looking for a two bedroom (or three bedroom) apartment so we have space for a home office and to have somewhere for family members to stay when visiting.
We would ideally like to be within an hour of Solna campus, but we are open to areas slightly further away. We would also like as many utilities (electricity, water, heating etc.) included in the rent as possible, and for the apartment to be furnished where possible. Partly furnished would also be okay for us. If you think we may be a good fit for your apartment please contact me. Thank you!
