Located in a beautifully renovated 12th-century Benedictine monastery in the centre of Engelberg, our summer camp provides students comfortable and modern twin or single bedrooms, spacious classrooms, a games area and plenty of space to hang out with friends.
A language study stay in a student residence is ideal for vacation courses for teenagers. It is very important to us that our young clients feel at home. With safety, conviviality, cultural exchanges, student residence accommodation allows you to make new friends from all backgrounds and to discover a very enriching community life.

Sharing your bedroom with someone from another corner of the world is a very enriching experience. On request and depending on availability, it is also possible for students who know each other to be accommodated in the same bedroom.
