I-House and the Campanile

The Summer I-House Experience

International House is an exciting residential and program center that welcomes U.S. and international students, visiting scholars, researchers, and postdocs. We also provide space for groups visiting UC Berkeley during the summer conference season.

Below are some of the great reasons to stay at I-House during the Summer:

  • Unique, fun community of American and international students
  • Great location on campus! Located at the top of Bancroft Avenue near the Law School and Haas School of Business
  • Affordable single and double furnished rooms
  • Meal plan included with all-you-can-eat, delicious meals created by our award-winning chef, Abbie Serbins
  • On-site amenities include Edmonds Café, library, computer lab, game room, music room, lounges, and high-speed wireless Internet
  • Programs, films, lectures, and cultural festivals, as well as special trips designed to make the most of your stay in Berkeley
  • Our beautiful building has an amazing view of the entire San Francisco Bay Area and the Golden Gate Bridge. We are within walking distance of the central campus classrooms and libraries, recreational facilities, and Berkeley shopping and restaurants.
