It offers a good learning experience with decent placements.

Placements: I think 80 to 90% students are placed in our college. The highest package is 10 LPA, the average is 8 LPA, and the lowest is 3 LPA. Grand Oberoi, Taj, Lalit, the Western ITC Royal Bengal, JW Marriott recruit. 82-90 percent of students got internships from my course with Taj, the Western Lalit. Mostly they offer us the front office department, the kitchen department, the beverages department and housekeeping also.

Infrastructure: Facilities and infrastructure of my college are very good, and the Wi-Fi facilities, labs, classrooms and library section are also good. My hostel facilities are also good. Washrooms are cleaned every week. The food is of very good quality in the mess and canteens. Medical facilities, sports and games are played on a monthly basis.

Faculty: Our teachers are very helpful, qualified, and knowledgeable. The teaching quality is very good. They help us, and sometimes they guide us. They are very humble and very respectful. The course curriculum is relevant, it makes the student university-ready. Not more difficult, the semester exam in our college is average. The passing percentage of my college in my class is 95 to 98 percent. The faculty members are also good.

Other: I chose the college because the infrastructure and the facilities are very good. The course is very beneficial to us, and it provides us with high placement value in the high-end hotels. My course is better, and I don't think there is a need to improve my course. The event is, I think, on a 3-month or 4-month basis. Campus road is also well-connected, and the campus surroundings and scholarships are also good.

It is a good college. If anyone comes to this college, I highly recommend it.

Placements: 90% of students got placed. The salary package is 4 LPA - 5 LPA. Top recruiters are Taj, Oberoi, The Leela, Ritz-Carlton, The Park, ITC, etc. 70% of students got internships. Top roles offered are cooking, F&B service, hospitality, housekeeping, front, HR, and sales. The best college role in my college is very departmental, like hospitality service.

Infrastructure: AC, Wi-Fi, light, advanced classrooms, and computer labs are available. Medical facilities exist, and there are many sports grounds. The food is good, and we have a large green campus and playground. Good maintenance of events, cultural programs, and many more things.

Faculty: The teaching quality is very good. Teachers are very helpful and friendly. There are many seminars, and I also have IET training programs that make the students industry-ready. The semester exam in this college is not tough. It's basically normal, and the pass percentage is 85%.

Other: I chose this course because I think it will give me the best opportunity in my career. That's why I chose this course, and the best thing about our course is the practical classes. I wish there were better improvements in the practical classes. There are many events and festivals, including an international food festival, and many more events like that.

The college should be more developed.

Placements: Placements at the institute are not that bad. I don't know the exact details, but I have heard that placements in the college are not very good. The college needs to improve its placements for students. But, there are both national and international placements.

Infrastructure: The hostel food is very unhygienic and of poor quality. There are bacteria and other issues in the food, making it not worth eating. It contains excess spices and oil. We always get complaints from students that the food is very bad, oily, and not worth eating. There is no one eats it.

Faculty: Teachers are very friendly in our institute. Almost all teachers are good at communication and teaching, and they are quite friendly. They take classes regularly, teach well, and also conduct practical sessions. All teachers are well-educated and pay attention to students.

Other: It is a short-term course, that’s why I chose it.

My experience and review of my college .

Placements: The placement opportunities here are pretty decent compared to other colleges. The college provides guidance on career choices and helps students choose the path to success they've always dreamed of.

Infrastructure: The facilities provided by the college are pretty decent but could have been better considering the huge amount of money they charge students. The infrastructure is also pretty okay.

Faculty: The college has a mixed bag of faculty, some of whom are very helpful and provide good guidance. However, there are also some faculty who are not at all helpful and will be a waste of time. On the plus side, the faculty are very knowledgeable and do a good job of preparing students for the industry.

Other: The entrance exam is free, the location is easily accessible, the facilities are top-notch, and the faculty are knowledgeable and supportive.

The college is great overall and thus it is one of the best in West Bengal.

Placements: My batch is still in the middle of the course and we will pass out in 2025. Basically, the top recruiting companies that come to our college are many, like Oberoi, Taj, Leela, Hilton and many more foreign brands with foreign postings with a good package.

Infrastructure: In facilities, we have labs for all the courses as well as for all the departments: 4 labs for food production, 4 labs for food and beverages, 1 lab and 1 suited room, 1 twin bedroom for the housekeeping lab and 2 rooms for front office practical. We have a library but its not a public library. WiFi is available only for computer labs. The facilities of the hostel are not that good, as the public washrooms are mostly dirty, foods are sometimes not good, and rooms are spacious but have only single fans. We don't have any medical facilities as such, and yes for sports, we have good facilities like a badminton court and a ground for all the outdoor games.

Faculty: Faculty members are the best part of our college; they are very supportive and help us in every aspect, especially the students. They give their best to push us to another extent and learn new things. Our faculty members are highly qualified. The teaching quality is also top-notch. Yes, this course is curriculum-relevant. Yes, this makes the students industry-ready. Semester exams are not that difficult in the college. Questions are kept easy to medium level yet sometimes they get hard but it is not a big deal to score good marks if one has studied and has the basics cleared.

Other: I chose this course because I wanted to pursue my career in hotel management and this is the best course one can have. My main motive is to study the entire hotel, not just a single department, although my area of interest is kitchen. Things they could improve in this course is to increase the number of practicals and eliminate those subjects which are irrelevant to the course, such as " geographical studies " and " introduction to cultural studies." Events and activities are okay but it should not hamper the academics of the students; they mustn't engage themselves 20 days of a month in a particular event. That should be reduced totally.
