Pacific Institute of Hotel Management, Pacific University

Admission: During college, we got to see how things work in the industry. We went to hotels for catering events. The teachers know their stuff and teach well. We have smart classes too. The college has two restaurants, a bakery, a kitchen, and a housekeeping lab for practical lessons. It's great because all the equipment needed for practicals is available.

Placement: In 2015, I did my internship at Hotel ITC Grand Maratha in Mumbai. It was a six-month industrial training where I got 900 rupees as a stipend. My friends also did internships, and some went to Malaysia. Companies like Airtel, Reliance Jio, The Leela, and Hyatt came to our college for placements.

Campus: The college used to provide one meal for lunch and tea, which was pretty good. The classrooms are nice, and they have a computer lab too. The food is good quality overall. They have all the facilities we need. I think this college is one of the best in Udaipur.

Admission: The teachers at our college are knowledgeable, but their teaching style doesn't always click with students. They could put in more effort. However, they are all pretty friendly towards students.

Placement: I'm really impressed with how many students get jobs after college. Over 80% of us end up landing a job! The top salary offered is 7 lakhs per year, and the average is 5 lakhs. Finding a job through the college is pretty straightforward, although not a lot of companies come to recruit on campus.

Campus: Our college has awesome infrastructure, especially the sports arena. The library is top-notch too. The campus is huge, around 1300 acres, but the buildings are a bit old. It's an open campus, which I like.

Admission: The teachers here are really good and helpful. They know their stuff well and get us ready for the industry. We gotta attend about 75% of classes. We have six semesters in our course. The exams are not too hard, kinda moderate. You gotta score at least 35% to pass.

Placement: Our course has a higher placement rate than others. About 30-40% of students from our college land jobs in top hotels with salaries ranging from 8 to 40 LPA. Plus, our school has connections around the world, so students can even find work abroad.

Campus: Our college has five departments front office, f&b service, food production, housekeeping, and bakery. Each department has its own labs and libraries. The classrooms are nice with AC. The hostel is big with many buildings. Two students share a room. The food in the mess is tasty.

Admission: The teachers are super helpful as long as you ask nicely. They really know their stuff. We get to see the industry up close during ODC and visit top hotels in Rajasthan. It's cool to explore old heritage sites and serve there. It gives us a taste of what working in the future will be like.

Placement: The placements for hotel management students were awesome this year! Many seniors landed jobs in well-known hotels, with some even going overseas. Salaries are decent in India, but much higher abroad. Plus, the pay gets even better with promotions. The internships were at top hotels like Taj, Radisson, and The Lalit.

Campus: The classrooms, labs, and library at the college are awesome. Unfortunately, there's no Wi-Fi because they don't allow phones. Saturdays are for sports and games, which is super fun. The cafeteria food is really good, no complaints there. I've never had any problems with the facilities.

Admission: The teachers in our college cover all the important subjects and some other ones too. Classes happen regularly and practicals are always on time. Our course is for 3 years and we have exams twice a year. We had 3 midterms and a final exam by outside experts. Practical exams are one-on-one and everything is well-organized.

Placement: Our batch did pretty good with placements, some even got jobs abroad. Around 70% of us found jobs, while the rest are still figuring things out. The salary range was from Rs. 8,000 to Rs. 14,000 per month in India. Big companies like Taj, Oberoi, Leela, and Lalit came for interviews. Personally, I landed a job at Leela but decided to go somewhere else. I even switched from hospitality to corporate.

Campus: The college has everything you need library, kitchen, bakery, restaurant, lab, and rooms. The cafeteria food was really good. They even give you notes and study materials. And you get a uniform and a meal included. Overall, the facilities are great here.
