What are the prices in Geneva and Lausanne?

Hello to everyone!

Currently I live in London and have plans to study orchestral conducting in Geneva or Lausanne.

Could anyone advise me about the prices of flats (one bedroom or studios) or flatshare in these two cities? I have read that it is difficult to find something in Geneva. Is it the same in Lausanne? Are there any accommodation websites you could recommend?

Thank you in advance!!

The search sites given above and in other threads are certainly the best places to get an idea of prices. As for difficulty in getting a place, Lausanne is certainly not easy, but it is easier than Geneva. Most people take one or two months to find a place that they are actually offered after making several applications for places. However, there is a lot of variability - some people take much shorter and much longer than this. But as a warning, it is a lot more work and hassle than most people expect. You seem to be somewhat aware already, though. Best of luck!
