What are the hostel facilities in Jadavpur University hostel like as compared to NIT Durgapur hostel?
I am an alumni of NIT Durgapur. As I have never been to JU hostels, I can tell you about the condition of hostels in my college.
The fresher rooms are much better than those allotted to senior boys. Hall 9 consists of four-seater rooms which were allotted to me, back when I was a fresher. These rooms are small. However, they are still bigger than the four-seater rooms we were allotted during the second and third years.
Presently, freshers are allotted Hall-11 which is newly built and has all the facilities. It is well-built. During the fourth year, you will be allotted single-seater rooms. These single-seater rooms are below expectations. They are quite old.
Here are some facilities provided in hostels-
- LAN/Wifi Connectivity
- Clean drinking water via water coolers
- Common washrooms for each wing
- Mess for each hall
- Sports facilities
The hostel facilities at NIT Durgapur aren’t really good, especially for a college of national importance.

How is girls hostel at IIT Dhanbad?
IIT Dhanbad has several girls’ hostels.
The newest among them is Rosaline. It is ten storey, and has spacious rooms. Each room accommodates two students at a time. Rosaline is available from second year onwards.
In your first year, you’ll get the Opal Hostel. Opal doesn’t look as grand as Rosaline from the outside, but it has almost the same facilities. Opal has the main canteen area just opposite to it, which is an advantage in itself.
These are the two girls’ hostels that I know about. Rest assured that the girls’ hostels at IIT Dhanbad are well equipped with all the facilities.
Which hostel should I take in Thapar University as a first year student?
Since my sister recently graduated from Thapar, I think I can answer this. Only three hostels, hostels B, C, and H are available for first-year boys.
Out of these hostels, at hostel H there are some AC rooms. It depends on your JEE Mains whether you will get any of the AC rooms at hostel H. Having a good JEE mains score will be beneficial. However, since everyone prefers AC rooms nowadays, the AC rooms get allotted very fast.
Hostel H is also closest to the academics block. It is pretty good. The rooms are spacious. But it lacks interaction with hostels B and C. It also does not have a badminton court or a garden area.

How is the hostel food at SVNIT?
The hostel food at SVNIT, like the one at any other college, can be best described as boring and repetitive.
Each hostel is handled by a different mess contractor, which is why the food quality may vary with the hostel. But one thing is for sure that the private contractors try to extract as much profit as they can. The menu predominantly contains Gujarati dishes, which may not be to the liking of some people. The meals have limited options, and one has no choice but to eat whatever is available. The hostels do not serve non-veg meals, but some hostels serve eggs on a day of the week/ on Sundays.
On a particular day, every alternate week, the mess remains closed for dinner. This is the perfect time to explore some restaurants or street foods outside of the campus. The food in Surat is delicious and has a lot of variety. On weekends, many families gather on the footpaths of the Dumas road along the SVNIT walls. There, one gets food stalls with different kinds of veg and non veg options. These stalls serve very affordable dishes. You can also ask your seniors for their favorite restaurants in the city.
The hostel food of SVNIT is manageable, but a bit boring.
