Find a room in Amsterdam

Finding a room in Amsterdam begins with a feasible budget, your desired moving date, and a clear vision of the house you wish to live in. Dingdong is an app where room seekers and households get to know each other through personal profiles and matching.

Are you going to the UvA, the HvA, or the VU? Compare the travel time to your lecture location, not just the distance to the city center. For example, consider East, West, and North, and check your daily cycling or public transport route. Uilenstede is located in Amstelveen: include this option if the connection suits you.

How does searching for a room in Amsterdam via Dingdong work?

Create a personal profile in the app and describe what you are like as a housemate. View rooms and house profiles, respond to a suitable place, and get acquainted if there is mutual interest. Prepare your response with our tips: “How do you find a room (without going crazy?)“ 👀

What should you pay attention to when looking for a room in Amsterdam?

Inquire about the total monthly costs, deposit, rental period, and the possibility of registering at the address. Also, discuss shared meals, visitors, cleaning, and quiet hours in the house. Verify agreements and inspect the room before transferring any money. A match is an introduction, not a guarantee of a room.
