What is the difference between Apartment and hostel in LPU? Is Apartment better than hostel rooms in LPU?

Well, as per my point of view, I can say both are good. LPU hostels come in various types from one seater AC to 16 seater dorm. Its cost varies with facilities. Now coming to apartments, they are just like what you hear in normal life while buying a apartment. It's costlier than hostels (might not be costlier than 1 seater AC). You can feel at home if you keep it clean. It's your place and you can do what ever you like cooking and all those stuff. In Apartment, you can get a big space as well. LPU is very much concerned about each and every student on the campus. CCTV Cameras are positioned at each and every prominent corner of the campus. You can find security guards everywhere on the campus for your Guidance and Security. The following facilities are available in apartments:- Air Conditioner, attached washroom, and Geyser in each room wooden Box B.Ed Study Table, Plastic Chair and Almirah 24 Hrs. Security Services, CCTV Surveillance, Electricity Backup, Water Supply, Staff Assistance and Medical Service (Medicines and tests On Payment) Study Room, TV Room, Lift Facility, Wi-Fi Service, Free Electricity Units (As Applicable) and Play grounds The services mentioned below are available on payment basis: Mess Services, Laundry Services, Dedicated Parking, Departmental Store, Cafeteria, Saloon for Boys, Printing and copier Shops in all hostels, Guest Rooms, Car Wash Facility, Shopping Mall and Tuck Shops. *Additional facilities are: a) Mattress b) Pillow along with Pillow Cover c) Bed Sheet d) Curtains Hope this helps Thank You.

Dear Abhay, Both Apartments and Hostels are good at LPU. Lovely Professional University has the largest Residential Facility in India for its students coming from all over India and abroad. Several options to fit your budget and need right are on offer: Right from One Seater AC apartments in many avatars to shared AC rooms to shared Rooms with coolers etc. To Dormitory. The fee for all options is different and depends upon the room/facilities opted by the student. If you are opting for Hostel Facility you will get some standard deliverables like some free electricity units per person/per session (based upon the kind of room opted), Iron B.Ed Study Table, Plastic Chair, Almirah, Water Geyser, 1 AC/Air Cooler, Attached Washrooms, Mess Facility, Common room with Television, Water Coolers with RO, etc. In addition to it, you will be left with more time for your studies as the generic works like Meals, Laundry cleanliness, etc. Are taken care of by the respective staff of the hostel. Both the options come with some additional facilities like 24 Hrs. Water Supply, Power Backup, Security, Wi-Fi, ATMs, Food Kiosks, Photostat machines, Cafeteria, Study Rooms, Guest Rooms, Hospital, etc. The biggest benefit for hostel students is that: They get a SWIMMING POOL and SPORTS COMPLEX yearly memberships at half the cost. So, The apartments, which offer more facilities are more expensive as compared to the shared hostel rooms. I hope this helps Thanks!

There are certain points that you should consider before coming on any decision. Well in my opinion and as per my brother experience at LPU premises both facilities are highly maintained, clean and lively. 1. You have no option but to eat the food within in mess only if you opt for a hostel. While in an apartment you can either opt for a tiffin service or cook yourself. Food is the basic need and all of us want it to be the BEST! 2. If you are reserved and very personal about your belongings you can go for an apartment otherwise the hostel will be a good place. 3If you want a spacious room then go for apartments definitely. More space is always an added benefit. On the other hand, if you can adjust in a room with a defined space and not fond of cooking your own then go for hostels. 4. If you are concerned financially then go for hostels only as apartment charges are more than hostels and available with AC facilities only. Choice is yours. Hope the above information helps.

Hello! Apartments are more organised and provide more privacy where as hostels have their own benefits. Both are good. Free Wi-Fi, hygienic and nutritious vegetarian meals, 24 hours security,24 hours power, proximity and access to academic resources like library, classrooms, labs etc. To make the stay of the students a pleasant one they are constantly involved by organizing various celebrations, events and activities likes cultural activities, sports, debates and declamations. Various competitions are organized where students from different hostels compete with each other. Apart from this, various clubs and forums work inside the hostels providing the students opportunities to develop certain skills in their fields of interest and inculcating in them a sense of regular practice and discipline. This totally depends upon your choice. In case you want to share your room with 3,4,5,6 or even 8 other members you can opt for hostels. You get good food facility such as hostel mess that you can opt yearly or half yearly. Other than that, you get to enjoy peaceful environment, as hostel have their separate parks, gardens. For fitness freaks are provided with open gym facility, running tracks and basketball courts. There are various tuck shops provided where you can get your daily need items. Also in apartments, you are facilitated with laundry system, mess food, apartments can accommodate maximum up to 4 students in a single room. You get your own kitchen to cook food s well, which is not provided in hostels. Facilities in apartments are almost same as that in hostels. So, you can opt for any one you want. All the Best. !

It depends on the requirements like Privacy, budget, location and facilities for a student to decide whether they would be more comfortable in an Apartment or a Hostel as an accommodation. While each of the different options have their benefits. Based on your requirements a student has to pay for the accommodation. LPU residential Facilities are indeed exceptionally well organised and maintained. The hostel administration here is very cooperative and caring. Hostel residents are permitted to keep Electrical Kettles, Electrical Irons, Steamer, Laptop, mobile charger, shaving set, trimmer, hair straightener and hair dryer. Basic essentials are already provided to students as per seater like table, chair, almirah, etc. 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. A hosteler does not have the facility of pantry, LPU provides the facility of mess for them. Apartments can feel like a home away from home when you are stepping outside your comfort zone. Having a homely base to come back to each day makes a huge difference to happiness. Kitchen facilities are given in apartments and allow students to cook with ingredients picked up from local markets. For apartment rooms with pantry, students may also use induction plate for cooking food in addition to gadgets mentioned for hostels. Apartments are costly in comparison to hostels as more facilities are given to apartment holders. So it is on you that what would you like more. Based on that you can book a hostel or an apartment shared or individual.

<p>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.</p>

<p>When considering accommodation options at Lovely Professional University (LPU), students weigh the benefits of hostels versus apartments. Hostels offer a social and affordable experience, with shared rooms and communal facilities ideal for meeting new people. However, they may lack private space and storage. In contrast, apartments provide a quiet environment, separate bedroom and study areas, and the freedom to cook own meals, but come at a higher cost.</p><p>Ultimately, the choice depends on individual preferences. Students seeking a budget-friendly, social atmosphere opt for hostels, while those prioritizing peace, privacy, and independence choose apartments. Apartments suit focused students requiring ample storage and a quiet study space. Both options cater to diverse needs, ensuring LPU students find a comfortable and conducive living environment to thrive academically and personally.</p>
