Special relaxation rooms are available for students and staff whose chronic illness or disability requires them to take an occasional break.
The furnishings include a reclining lounge chair.
Please note: Once you have an access pass for the relaxation room, you still need to book your slot using the Outlook calendar. You can book the quiet space for a maximum of one hour at a time, but multiple times per day or week.
The relaxation rooms can be found at the following locations:
- Main Building (1A-68)
- Initium (1B38) (not reservable, also lactation- and first aid room)
- W&N building (WN-M514)
- MF building (MF A-028)
- New University Building (NU 6C-35)
Would you like to request access?
- If you are a student, you can book the relaxation room using Outlook. You need authorization on your VU card for this purpose, which you can obtain from your academic advisor (see also Studying with a disability)
- If you are a member of staff, request access online using the form Change VU card permissions on the Service Portal
- Are you not employed by VU Amsterdam and/or not in possession of a VUnet ID? Please use the External Service Portal.
You are granted access to all relaxation rooms for a period of one year by default.
