HIT Kolkata Hostel Fees 2025, Facilities, Rooms, Food, Photos

Heritage Institute of Technology doesn’t provide an in-campus hostel facility for freshers. But you will get off-campus facilities. For that, you have to approach the senior authority and then you can wait till you get one.

Further, the in-campus hostel facility is also not up to the mark. The hostel at Kalikapur is unnecessarily costly and there is no maintenance. You can face some issues like an improper switchboard, unhygienic toilets, and even food available is not of that good quality. Even authority overlooks this concern.

There is another hostel which is 98 Anandapur and is well maintained and worth the pay. If you are lucky enough to get any room available here you can shift here. If not, you can find a broker and find the room at your convenience near the campus.

Heritage Institute of Technology is one of the most prominent institutions in West Bengal. Being spread in a vast area it has got on-campus accommodation for its students. There are a total of 4 hostels for boys and 6 hostels are for girls on-campus.

Following are the basic amenities offered at these:

• Meals are provided 3 times a day. You can make your own mini-meals.
• Facilities such as High-Speed Internet connectivity via Wi-Fi and/or LAN 
• Access to sporting and recreational zones.

Apart from this, you will also be able to find a few off-campus housing properties: 

• Private Housing: These are similar to on-campus housing facilities. The rooms are offered on a twin or triple sharing basis including food and internet. The rent for these rooms can range from INR 5000-5500. The names for few such hostels are M.B Hostel, Saraswati Hostel, And Vivekananda Hostel.
• Shared Housing: For such rooms, you might have to share the rooms with 3-4 students. You have to arrange your own facilities. The rent will vary depending on the facilities available ranging from INR 3000-8000 per person.

All are equally beneficial. On-campus students however have strict norms regarding timing, which is not the case for those living in off-campus housing.

You can apply for the hostel during admission. While taking admission ask about the hostel facilities and they will guide you. 

You should note that the hostel seats are assigned on a first-come, first-served basis. So, if you need a hostel, try to get in as soon as possible. After you've been admitted, go to the relevant counter and pay a deposit. 

However, I strongly advise you not to stay in a college hostel, particularly if you are a boy because the environment and amenities are inadequate. You can easily find pg may be in the RR Plot and Hussainpur area. These locations are close to the campus.
