Location & character

The Südvorstadt is considered one of Leipzig's most popular residential districts: plenty of late-19th-century buildings, a dense scene of cafés and restaurants along the Karli, and short distances to the main station and city centre.

A room instead of a hotel

For project work, internships or longer installation assignments, a furnished room is usually better value than a hotel room: your own kitchen, more space, and often better terms for a weekly or monthly stay.

Transport links

Thanks to its central location, the main station, city centre and large parts of Leipzig are quickly reached from the Südvorstadt by tram, train or bicycle.

Frequently asked questions

Does fairschlafen have an apartment directly in the Südvorstadt?

Our apartments are currently located in other Leipzig districts such as Plagwitz, Gohlis or Grünau. From there, the Südvorstadt is usually just a few minutes away by train or bicycle.

From what duration is a furnished apartment worthwhile?

From around a week it is usually cheaper and more practical than a hotel; from four weeks, an individual offer is usually worthwhile.
