Hostels are good. They are alloted about 20 days prior to the commencement of classes. If we talk about the things u got inn ur hostel room. so there's a bed, a study table, a chair and a cupboard. It depends on the hostel whether u get a double or triple sharing room. Meal quality is decent also the menu changes accordance to the season. If you want hostel than first you have to pay the Hostel fees before due date and then u complete the formalities like registration process , filling forms,etc.It's costs you about 45000/semester including ur hostel and mess fees.

No hostel facilities for 1st year students. Then we were offered AC hostel accomodation with good Wi-Fi and all amenities including sports like Foosball, TT, Badminton and others. There is no registration process as such for the hostels, depending upon the availability they provide you the details. Local PG is the worst in terms of hygiene and costing. Mess food is decent.

The hostel allotment is totally random. Anyone can get any of the hostels. There are 13 boys and 3 girls hostel in the campus. You are given a room with a cupboard and table in the hostel room. Every hostel has a mess for food in the hostel. The food quality of the mess is quite decent, but can get below par sometimes.

You get three times a deal which is decent. Almost every mess has its night mess which opens after dinner for late night cravings. The meal quality and menu is maintained by BHM which is a board by students. The registeration process is simple you need to fill out 5-6 forms about your details to your care taker available when you have secured a seat in IIT delhi.

The rooms are spacious and well built. I got single room for entire tenure, but there are shared rooms as well. Entire campus is connected to wifi which sometimes fail to satisfy us. The menu is fixed prior to each month and food is overall good and give a balanced diet. You have to opt for hostel if you're not staying within 10 km of the campus. Registration for teh same happens during the admission process only.

All IITs has hostel facilties available and that too at a very cheap rate. We were only charged 8000 for a semester and mess charges were around 20000 for a semester. Food quality was fine, not too good not too bad.

Hostels are a bit old but there are new ones built recently which are pretty good with just a little higher fees. Mess food is okayish and good to eat regularly. Hostels are incredibly affordable with approx 25k for a semester including everything.

Some hotels are old and some are newly build once. For freshers there are 3 seater rooms which goes to 2 seater and single rooms in senior years. Every room includes all basic facilities like bed, study table, almirah, mirror, fan, tubelights, windows. Daily cleaning and maintenance is done in corridors and lawns so they are clean. Main food is decent and it very is from hostel to hostel as every hostel has its own mess and you can only eat in your own hostel's mess. The rent of the rooms are 13250 per semester and the mess fees is about 34000 per semester on which you can get rebate if you take holidays and don't eat in the mess. Hostels are allotted to you randomly during the registration process of the institute. Staff and seniors are friendly. Every hostel has common rooms, study rooms, sports rooms, and courts for basketball, badminton, etc.
My sister was allotted 3rd floor as a fresher at Kailash hostel, at IIT Delhi. She was a bit disappointed at the time that there was no lift facility, and she had to carry her entire luggage all by herself.
She shared a two-seater room with two other girls because of lack of accommodation facilities. She and her roommates somehow made space for three beds and three table-chairs in that small room. The room was barely left with any space to move around. Thankfully, they got a balcony in which my sister managed to keep her cupboard. The room did not have any space for a cooler, and the hostel had a common washroom. A lack of cooler was very upsetting for her because of the harsh Delhi summers.
During her final year, got a single occupancy room on the ground floor, in the same hostel. But the room was still quite small, and she could barely fit in her clothes and shoes in the given space. The washrooms were still common.
Even though she fondly remembers her days at IIT Delhi, she is always vocal about her disappointment with the accommodation facilities of one of the premiere institutions of our country.
IIT Delhi has a total of 18 hostels for men, and 2 hostels for women. Each hostel is equipped with basic amenities such as a common room, a reading room, and mess hall. The hostels also have 24-hour security and medical facilities. Additionally, the hostels have a common room, an indoor games room, and a gym.
The buildings are old given the time they were built, yet the facilities are decent. First-year students are allotted triple occupancy rooms while some are allotted double. This depends on the hostel you are assigned as each hostel has different maps and infrastructure. A typical room in an IIT Delhi has:
All these basic amenities make students stay comfortable. After all, hostel life is all about making memories and new friends.
The hostel life of IIT Delhi is one filled with freedom and fun. The hostel never sleeps with the midnight canteen running till 3 in the morning. People spend their time in hostels differently depending on their nature
The quality of hostel life depends on who you are and varies dramatically from person to person.
IIT Delhi has stopped providing on-campus hostel facilities to PG MTech students specially bound mainly due to the shortage of Hostel rooms inside the campus. Earlier they used to provide off-campus hostels that were in pathetic conditions. But starting from 2020, they have even stopped providing these off-campus hostels and students are expected to arrange for their accommodation.
The students have to go to the hostel inside the campus for mess food and have to roam around without any permanent on-campus residence. Moreover, so much distance between their off campus residence and the college wastes a lot of time and they can hardly spare time for doing additional things like studying for an entrance exam.
New hostels are being built to accommodate MTech students and hopefully, in the coming future you might see better hostel facilities for PG students.
IIT Delhi has both old as well as new hostels and obviously the new ones have better facilities and infrastructure. The new hostels are Girnar and Udaigiri and have spacious rooms and have 8 floors each with a total of 400 rooms in each hostel. These hostels have a big crowd which means a bigger hostel family to interact with during events. The mess facilities are also considerably better and bigger than old hostels.
The old hostel buildings have only 3-4 floors with smaller rooms and less facilities. But these hostels have a nostalgia associated with many toppers who are successful people today. This spirit keeps the ambiance of these old hostels lively.
Honestly, I wouldn’t say one hostel is better than the other. Every hostel has its unique aspects and cannot be compared.
As for the choice of hostels, no, you cannot choose your hostel. It is allotted to you randomly at the time of admission, every hostel having a mixed bag of students. You cannot change your hostel unless it’s a serious issue.
The rooms in the IIT Delhi girls' hostels are rather spacious and decked with basic amenities. For freshers, triple occupancy rooms are allotted.
A typical room in a girls' hostel has basic stuff that every roommate shares such as study tables, chairs, beds, tube lights, windows, and other basic things. Other than this,
All in all, the hostel facilities for girls at IIT Delhi are decent.
The hostel life in Delhi's top colleges such as IIT Delhi, NSIT, and DTU is generally considered to be full of roller coaster experiences. You get to interact with such a mixed crowd for the first time in your life and almost everyone here is a genius.
Your most precious memory when you will leave the college will be munching Maggie at the Maggie Baba around 3 in the morning with your friends or playing cricket at 12 midnight. You will miss the Friday night hangouts in lounges and clubs. Girls however suffer because of the curfew effective right at 9 pm. The hostels add to the overall college life experience and if you aren’t staying at a hostel, you are missing out on a lot of fun.
IIT Delhi has a total of 13 hostels - 11 for boys and 3 for girls.
In terms of cleanliness, security, network service electricity all the hostels are decent and provide the necessary means for a comfortable stay.
Old hostels: The old hostels lack a few amenities. One big flaw is the lack of lifts despite the hostels having more than 3-4 floors. Moreover, there is only one water filter on the ground floor and it’s a big task for students to come from 3 floors to the ground floor to fill water bottles.
The new hostels have better facilities and even have lifts and water service stationed on every floor. The rooms are also bigger in comparison to the older hostels. Every hostel has night canteens that offer food at subsidiary rates.
Washrooms: The washrooms are cleaned daily and hygiene is maintained. You even have geysers for winter.
Girls' hostels: Everything is very substandard in girls' hostels that are located on a drain because of which a foul smell prevails on the campus throughout the day. The rooms are very few in comparison to the strength and the food served in the mess is pathetic. Availability of rooms is a major problem there and the mess food is pathetic.
IIT Delhi hostels indeed are well maintained but it's important to note that the facilities provided vary from hostel to hostel.
