How are the bathrooms in the boys' hostels at IIEST Shibpur? Are they Indian-style bathrooms?
Undoubtedly, this one of the most obvious questions that come to our mind when we are about to shift to a new place.
Bathrooms are extremely important for our day-to-day routine, so coming to your question the bathrooms in the boys’ hostels are quite good. My brother has spent one year as a hosteller in Hostel-9 named as B.Sen Hall and till now have no complaints regarding the bathrooms.
- Do not worry about hygiene issues as they are properly cleaned on an everyday basis.
- There are no water logging issues with bathrooms or toilets.
- There is 24h running water and no issue of water shortages (But yes it may be difficult for you in the starting because of salty water).
Also, you can check the hostel fee structure down below:

Yes, there are Indian-styled toilets. Some of my brother’s friends faced problems in the initial days as they were habituated to Western-styled but later on, they got adjusted to the situation and have no complaints.
