IIMK - Indian Institute of Management, Kozhikode - Hostel Details

My brother completed his PGP from IIM Kozhikode a few years back. 

According to him, first year PGP students are randomly allotted single/double/triple occupancy rooms. The allocation varies for boys and girls. Single occupancy rooms share a common washroom on the same floor. They do not have an AC facility, and common washrooms are not provided with geysers. 

Double occupancy rooms are provided with attached washrooms. Those rooms have ACs, and their washrooms have geysers. But the AC and geyser facility is available only after paying a monthly rent alongside the other fees. In the second year, there is an option to select either a single or double occupancy room. 

The hostel rooms are top class in comparison to other colleges. The balconies open to a scenic, resort like view. The hostel allocation process changes each year, based on the diversity ratio and batch strength.

Having taught at multiple Indian management colleges in the past, I can say for sure that IIM Kozhikode has some of the most well maintained hostel rooms. ISB is at par with IIM Kozhikode in this respect. 

The hostel rooms at Kozhikode have balconies with a nice view. The surroundings are clean and green. The washrooms, even the common ones, are in great condition. The newer hostels offer rooms with attached washrooms. The rooms are cleaned every day, and the furniture is in good shape. 

The mess offers decent food with limited options. After a while, the mess food becomes monotonous and boring. But eateries are easily available outside the campus. The hostels have a night canteen facility which offers convenient access to snacks at late hours. 

IIM Kozhikode offers good food and hostel facilities, so you need not worry in this regard. 

Married accommodation is not readily available on campus, but on request, IIMK can facilitate locating suitable accommodation for students, in proximate areas. 

My sister's batch had 2 married students. The institute assigned them an extra room for spouses in the women's hostel. If your roommates are okay with it, then your spouse can visit you for a few days. 

Outside facilities are also available for spouses' accommodation. But then the transport expenses will have to be taken care of.
