Campus: The college has cool labs and classrooms. There's two buildings, a cafeteria, parking, playgrounds, and a hostel with a mess and medical help. The food is awesome since it's a hotel management college.

Admission: The curriculum at my college has been updated a lot in the past 2 years, and now it fits well with what the hospitality industry needs. I feel like the curriculum at my college is a bit relaxed, but the one from Jawaharlal Nehru University is really good and matches what's happening in the industry. What I like the most about our course is that it's a good mix of hands-on experience and theory. It sets us apart from other courses out there.

Placement: I'm a student from the batch 2022-2025, and there are about 300 students in my group. The college offers good placements with the highest package being 9 Lacs per year from retail brands and 5 Lacs per year from hotel brands. We have big hospitality and retail brands like Taj, The Oberoi, ITC, and more coming for placements. In our B.Sc. and Diploma courses, we have to do internships to finish our studies. You can work in brands all over India during your internship. The stipend varies, but some companies pay around 5000 per month. One cool opportunity is the OCLD programme by the Oberoi group. After one and a half years, you can become an Assistant Manager through this training.

Campus: The facilities here are awesome! We've got practical labs with all the stuff we need. There are separate theory labs for each year, which is super convenient. Everything is well organized and linked to the buildings. Plus, we've got cool stuff like brainwave monitoring, solar panels, our own cafeteria, and a water tank. And there are generators everywhere to keep the power running all the time.

Admission: The teachers at our college are awesome! They really know their stuff and are super helpful. They always help us out when we have questions. They use projectors, laptops, and lectures to teach us. The ratio of teachers to students is 1 to 50.

Placement: Most students get into this course, around 90%. The highest salary you can get is 5 LPA, and the lowest is 2 LPA. Big companies like Hotel Taj, ITC, The Leela, and Marriott hire students. Almost everyone gets an internship, about 90%. The main roles you can get are MT, AT, and HOT. You can do a 4-month internship at a top hotel in India.

Campus: The college has many labs for kitchen, front office, and accommodation operations. All labs have AC. The library has books for all courses. 2nd year students make the food with teachers watching. It's nutritious and high quality.

Admission: The teachers here are really smart in their subjects. It's all about how much effort you put in to do well. They're super nice, friendly, and always ready to help you out. This course lasts for 3 years. In the first year, you'll get the basics of the industry. Then in the second year, you'll do training in a hotel to see how things work in real life. This helps you figure out if this career is for you. In the last 2 years, you dive deeper into the different departments. They also focus on making you better for interviews and jobs. Exams aren't too hard. Just pay attention in class and do your practical work, and you'll do great.

Placement: The job placements are starting, and right now, the salary offers are just okay. The hotel industry had a tough time because of the pandemic, but things are getting better this year. We hope to see better salaries soon. They're offering packages up to 5 LPA. The management trainee programs aren't as exciting as I thought they'd be. I know that experience is key in this field, so the initial salaries may not be great, but they improve over time. Companies like Hilton, Taj, Praxis, and Mr. Brown are hiring for retail roles. We're optimistic about better opportunities in the future.

Campus: The college looks nice from the outside with lots of greenery, but inside it's a bit old-fashioned. The library has old books and the cafeteria food is just okay. They serve lunch for 300 to 400 students, so it's understandable. There's no Wi-Fi, though. The hostel is a good choice if you're not from Lucknow. It's not the fanciest, but it's affordable.

Admission: The teachers here know their stuff. They explain things clearly and help us understand. But some teachers seem kinda bored teaching us.

Placement: I really like how our college helps students get jobs. Big companies like Aditya Birla Group, Haldiram, Starbucks, and others come to hire students. Last year, almost all students got placed. It's great to see so many opportunities for us here.

Campus: The college buildings are pretty old, but they have everything we need. There are labs for food production, serving food and drinks, accommodation, and front office training. The library has all the books we need for our subjects. The campus isn't too big, which is nice.

Admission: The teachers at this college are super qualified. They have a lot of experience in the industry, which makes learning really cool. They're also really friendly. The college gets us ready for the industry. We have mid-term exams in every semester, and then there are final exams to move on to the next semester.

Placement: Most students in our college got jobs in hotels and companies. The highest salary is about 7 lakhs per year, with an average of 2.5 lakhs. Big hotels like TAJ, Oberoi, Hilton, Hyatt, and others hired students. Companies like CCD, Reliance Retail, Puma, and Third Wave also hired students.

Campus: The college campus is pretty nice. It's set on about 4 acres of land. Each department has its own classrooms and labs. There's even a restaurant and a cafeteria for everyone. The classrooms are well-organized and get lots of fresh air. Lots of other cool stuff is available too.

Admission: Some teachers here know their stuff, but not all of them. A few are really good at teaching though. The course content could use some updates to better prepare us for the industry. The exams are pretty easy, and most students pass with more than 40%.

Placement: Around 30% of us got jobs after the course. The highest salary is 6 LPA, while the lowest is 3 LPA. Companies like HCL, Oberoi, ITC, Hyatt, Aditya Birla come for placements. We all interned at places like Taj, Oberoi, Hyatt, Leela, Accor. Job roles include assistant manager or sous chef.

Campus: The college has two parts: the old building and the new building. The old building is kinda rundown, nothing's been fixed up there. The new building is for the first semesters. No Wi-Fi for students, labs don't have everything you need, and the library's book collection is small. Hostel facilities are okay, not great. The food in the mess isn't that good. They only have medical help for emergencies.
