Our story
Our founders were on the lookout for a place they could live together as young professionals. Scouring the market, they realised that nothing catered to their needs; it was either low-budget student housing or high-end family accommodations, without anything in between.
And just like that, The Citylifer was born; delivering a brand-new proposition which uniquely catered young adults and contemporary nomads looking to live in style and comfort amongst a community of friends.
Not quite the student pad, nor the family home, every Citylifer property featured spacious, fully-equipped private rooms alongside shared spaces with thoughtful amenities and services that were designed to bring people together so that they could build friendships and memories that lasted long after their stay ended.
Citylifer Apartments accommodated groups of 2 to 5 friends. The evolution of this concept led to the introduction of Citylifer Houses, designed to host up to 50 people. In 2024, we are introducing Citylifer Buildings tailored for communities of over 50 residents. With this, we will be able to fully customize the member experience by creating an ecosystem that is designed to best fit the needs of young people living together. One step further, we aim to set foot in new markets within the old continent and put The Citylifer on the European map as the most appreciated co-living brand.
