French immersion, besides requiring a high teaching standard, implies pleasant accommodation to create the enjoyable learning environment so essential to achieving the best possible results.
The Institut provides this accommodation outside the school, if desired. They are comfortable, 1-, 2- or 3-room apartments located in the small perimeter of Villefranche, within walking distance of the school, shops, restaurants, banks, etc.
All are completely furnished with linen, cooking utensils, dishes, refrigerator, TV; all have Wi-Fi access.
One can choose between a community apartment or a private apartment:
Community apartment
These are 2- or 3-room apartments, solely occupied by the students, who share the kitchen and the bathroom.
A student can have an individual room in such an apartment.
There are also a few double rooms at a lower price which can be shared (by persons of the same sex).
The students are assigned these apartments according to age groups and with the aim of mixing nationalities whenever possible.

This is a 1-room apartment, with kitchen, bathroom, washer, TV, etc.
