SIX Residence

SIX is one of the University of Nicosia’s three official student residences, with U and TRIANGLE. Its 307 studio apartments are split among six towers that rise 12 storeys above the campus, with views across Nicosia and the country around it.

It stands on the campus: the central university buildings are a two-minute walk away, and most of the others five to ten minutes.

In 2018 SIX was nominated for the European Union Prize for Contemporary Architecture, the Mies van der Rohe Award.

The Rooms

Every apartment is a fully equipped single-occupancy studio with an en-suite bathroom and a kitchenette. SIX has Classic, Classic Plus, Executive, Executive Plus, Premium and Superior studios, Loft studio apartments and two-bedroom apartments. The rent covers electricity, water, internet access and cable TV.

Each studio has:

• A private balcony
• An en-suite bathroom with a walk-in shower
• Air conditioning and heating you control yourself
• Broadband internet, and Wi-Fi throughout the building
• A double bed, a wardrobe with drawers, a desk and chair, an armchair and side table, and shelves
• A 32-inch flat-screen TV with cable
• A kitchenette with a refrigerator, an induction hob and a microwave grill

The photographs of rooms are examples: furniture and finishes vary from room to room.

In the Building

SIX has a reception and security desk staffed 24 hours a day, electronic access control and CCTV. Residents have a café, a mini-market, a gym, a study room, a TV room, a games area and a card-operated laundry room. Cars park in the underground garage; bicycles and motorcycles park free.

LOFT, a restaurant and bar with a terrace and a pool, is on the 12th floor.

The cafés, restaurants and shops in the residences are run by independent operators, and what they charge is separate from the rent.

How to Apply

SIX is for University of Nicosia students. You can book a room once you have started an online application to the University, or if you are already registered as a student.

Book online on the SIX site, by telephone on +357 22 396 090, by email to info.six@unicresidences.com, or at the reception. Your room is confirmed once you have sent the documents the residence asks for and paid the deposit. To see the rooms first, ask the reception for a tour.

If you need a visa to study in Cyprus, book only once it has been issued: a deposit or instalment paid before then can be lost.
