Where to Live in Pamplona If You're Studying at UNAV or UPNA

When you're looking for university housing in Pamplona, the question isn't just which residence hall is closest to the university. It also matters where you'll be spending your time for the rest of the academic year: downtown, supermarkets, entertainment, transportation, and access to other parts of the city.

And there is a significant difference depending on whether you study at the University of Navarra (UNAV) or the Public University of Navarra (UPNA).

Iturrama

One of the city's traditional college neighborhoods and particularly convenient for students at the University of Navarra.

Downtown Pamplona

A good option if you prefer to be close to city life and commute to campus.

Arrosadía and its Surroundings

Especially useful for students at the Public University of Navarra.

The best area will therefore depend on your university and on how much you value living near campus versus living in a more central area.
