IIT BHU, Varanasi has massive hostels with sprawling, lush-green lawns. There are 12 male hostels and one female hostel with two extensions. Students at IIT BHU are provided with double-seated accommodation beginning in their first year, thanks to the construction of four new hostels in a year and the renovation of others. Needless to say, all of the hostels have LAN access, and students are permitted to use the internet 24 hours a day, seven days a week during the semester. A few hostels have Wi-Fi, making it even easier for students to connect to the internet. First-year students are assigned to separate hostels, whereas second-year students are assigned to hostels at random, with students from all years living in the same hostel. This facilitates social interaction among students from all branches and batches.

Hostels have their own common room, as well as badminton and volleyball courts, and are always bustling with activity. Each hostel has its own hangout area, complete with chole-samose and chai. Many inter-hostel competitions are held throughout the year, ranging from matki-phod on Janamashtmi to the Inter Hostel Sports Tournament. Each hostel has its own mess service, which is supervised by student volunteers who work with the Mess Maharaj to decide on the menu.

For the last two years, the first-years have been given the most recently constructed hostel, i.e. the Aryabhatta Hostel. This is the best hostel on the campus for the people who just come in and have high expectations out of an IIT. The rooms are 3-seater and are allotted alphabetically. Each room has three cots, two cupboards, two tables, and two chairs. The cupboards are spacious enough, and thus you can easily share it among the 3 of you. There are a couple of tube lights and a fan in each room. That’s about the guys’ rooms.
