    Apartment is bigger, more spacious than hostel rooms. In apartment you will get more facilities than hostel. I will suggest you hostel as you can make more friends, take help in projects. You can also discuss important topics with them. Also hostel will be cheaper than apartment. You will get basic facilities in hostel and also food will be good. In Apartment you have to take care of food on your own. Both have their own benefits and disadvantages. There is no limit in apartment. You can do anything. So take decision wisely.

    Hi,
    Privacy, budget, location and facilities all play a huge part in the way we choose our accommodation. While each of the different options have their benefits. We should also note that while every Hostel, Apartment is different. Basically, the majority of the time you get what you pay for. LPU Hostels always provide reasonably good value for money. You also have the chance to meet a lot of other international students or students from 29 different states because Hostels are generally well known as being social. LPU residential Facilities are indeed exceptionally well organised and maintained. The hostel administration here is very c

    Hello Abhay,
    The only difference between Hostel and Apartment is of space and fee structure. Apartments are more spacious as compare to hostel rooms and there is also a separate kitchen area and as it is an apartment with some extra facilities so the fee will also be differ.

    Hostel is better as you can make more friends and can take help in group projects and group studies. Hostel room is also cheaper as compare to the apartment ones. Basic facilities like mess, laundry etc. Are available here whereas in apartment you will have to do all on your own. Apartments have more facilities than hostels and the fees for that is also more as compared to hostel.

    In apartments, the facility of pantry is available for students whereas in the hostels, mess facility is available for food. Charges of apartments are more than that of hostels. So more or less both are having same facilities.
