How is hostel life in NIT Rourkela?

Divya DasB.Tech Engineering, National Institute of Technology, Rourkela (2020)

One of my female friends shared her hostel life experience at NIT Rourkela. Here is a glimpse of what her hostel life looked like

She was allotted B block of KMS hostel, which has the biggest and most spacious rooms among all hostels of the institute.
The institute has a variety of eateries including 1 night canteen and 1 day canteen
The hostel has a number of rules and regulations, one such being the late entry rule wherein if you don’t enter the hostel by 11:00 PM, you have to enter your name in the late entry register. This cannot happen more than thrice a month else your parents will be informed.
Breakfast options are limited such as bread, eggs, bananas, cornflakes, milk, and tea. These items are supplementary to an additional menu
The lunch menu is great for non-veg lovers while the dinner is very pathetic.
Although washrooms are cleared daily, hygiene and cleanliness need to be improved.
Festivals like NITR, Garden Fest, and Hall Fest make the hostel life more vibrant and happening.
There is a common room with indoor sports facilities and other leisure facilities.

Overall hostel life at BIT Mesra is decent for girls with a few restrictions.

Does NIT Rourkela have good girl's hostel rooms?

Sriparna BanerjeeStudied at National Institute of Technology, Rourkela

The two girls' hostels available at NIT Rourkela are C.V.Raman Hall of Residence and K.M.Shaw Hall of Residence. During your admission into NIT Rourkela, you will be allotted one of these two hostels.

C.V. Raman Hall of Residence-

It has four blocks- A,B,C and D with single seater rooms. These rooms have a LAN port, two tables, and shelves where you can keep your belongings.
The rooms are bright and airy with curtains.
The problem is that because of the high admission rate to NIT Rourkela and the lack of rooms for so many students, two students share a single room with one bed for each.
The washrooms and mirrors are clean. You will get a shoe stand near your room. The third floor has a wide and nice terrace. The corridors are spacious.
The mess food varies with the caterer who provides the service at the time.
Postgraduate students share rooms during the first year. In the second year, they are allotted single rooms.

Kiran Majumdar Shaw Hall of Residence-

It also consists of 4 blocks. Two blocks have single seater rooms, while two have 3 seater rooms. The rooms are very spacious. You get shelves for your books and cupboards for your clothes.
It is smaller than C.V. Raman Hall but has a better mess.
P.G. students get a 3 seater room during their first year and a single seater in their second year.

The girls hostels at NIT Rourkela are not the best, however, they are quite decent. The best part is that you will enjoy your time over there and make endless memories.

Which is the best hostel at NIT Rourkela?

Ashish KumarB.Tech from National Institute of Technology, Rourkela (2019)

There is no ‘best’ hostel because every student considers his own hostel better than others because it's the place he spent the best years of his life and gave him precious memories. Also, NIT Rourkela does not have hostels but Halls of Residence. That being said, my sister, an ex-student of NIT Rourkela considered her hall, Kiran Mazumdar Shaw Hall of Residence the best hall in NIT Rourkela.

This hall is closest to the entrance and is surrounded by lush greenery.
The hall serves the best food on campus. Mostly students of other halls complain about the quality of food served but here students enjoy their dinner time the most.
This hall is the most maintained and furnished hall on the campus because of limited borders.
The hall is the smallest and therefore it's easy to maintain its beauty. You will find a variety of flowers and plants in its garden.
The boarders of this hall are from diverse courses and departments. This ensures a versatile hostel life. the seniors are there to guide the juniors all the time.
KMS has the most spacious rooms of all the halls on campus.
The hall is the perfect place to escape to during extremely hot climates. The tall trees at Central Avenue are a perfect shade.
The hall is in close proximity to various departments like EC, EE, CS, etc.

Overall, KMS is the best hall of residence in NIT Rourkela that offers a peaceful and serene experience.
