We recommend that participants stay in one of the pre-booked “Apart-Hotels” and residences, conveniently located near our Kedge Bercy campus and with easy access to public transportation. The selected accommodation is recommended as the most affordable option available, and will provide a convenient rendezvous point both for activities associated with and outside of the programme. 

The suggested residences are safe, clean and very convenient. While KEDGE Business School is not the owner/operator of these residences and is not involved in the invoicing process, our staff are happy to help make your reservations as a courtesy service.

Participants can choose to be lodged in a single or a twin room.

Regardless of the housing location selected, students attending our Paris Summer School programme should plan to meet at the Kedge Paris campus by their own means, and coordinate to meet on time at other rendezvous points during the programme.
