The college is good because of faculty members and good infrastructure.

Placements: In our batch, placements are less due to Covid. Top recruiting companies are Club Mahindra, Hyatt, Marriott's, Radisson Blu, Novotel, Taj, ITC, etc. Almost everyone got an internship in the top recruiters.

Infrastructure: The hostel provided by the college is good. The hostel provides TT room, kitchen, TV room and mess. Food provided by the mess is almost good, and in our college, lunch has to be made by students. They provide a volleyball court, badminton court and football court. Each department has labs.

Faculty: Teachers are helpful and highly qualified, and teaching quality is good. The certificate is provided by 2 universities named IGNOU and NCHMCT. The course is not that tough. In between, exams are conducted. Competitions are also conducted in national and state levels.

Top recruitment companies are Club Mahindra, Marriott and ITC Hotels. All the students got an internship in hotels like Hyatt, Marriott, ITC, Taj and Radisson. Manager level posts are offered to the students.

Infrastructure: There are labs for all subjects. The kitchen is clean and big, and there are 4 main kitchens. Each one is for each year, and there is also a diploma kitchen. There are enough classrooms and a library. The hostel is affordable, but the facilities are less. Rooms are clean and spacious, but the quality of food is average. There are shuttle, volleyball and football ground around the campus.

Faculty: Teachers are calm, quite helpful and knowledgeable. Teaching quality is average, but it depends on teachers. The course curriculum is relevant and makes students industry-ready, especially after training. In our college, training given for all subjects is good.

Other: I am a passed out student of the batch 2017-2020. The best thing about the course is it is very interesting and different from other courses, and it is practically orientated.

The infrastructure is average. Dissatisfied because there is no canteen in our college.

Placements: The percentage of placement of the students placed through our college was 100%. The highest salary offered to the student in the entry-level was 15 thousand per month, and according to me, the lowest salary was 10 thousand per month. The companies that visited our campus has the good name in the hospitality, and the industry companies like Oberoi, Taj, ITC, Mahindra, and much more popular companies visited our campus. In our college, the percentage of the internship is same as of the placement on the campus. Almost, 100% of the students got the internship. The maximum stipend was Rs. 2,000 and the minimum was Rs. 800. The placement cell of our college is helpful for us and useful too.

Infrastructure: The infrastructure of our college is designed in a good manner. Our institute is fully Wi-Fi enabled, and the labs are designed in a good manner. The student can clear their doubts through the library, and they can find every book regarding their doubt. The ground of the college is well-maintained, and the hostel room is spacious comparing to the others hostels. Till now, there is no canteen in the college, but they are planning to open it soon.

Faculty: The faculty members are well-qualified and helpful to every student. They help the students in clarifying their doubts. According to me, they are knowledgeable. The teaching quality is well. They teach us through the blackboard and even with the slides prepared by them in the computers.

Other: Every year, the sports day is sponsored by the college. The farewell party is there for the seniors.
