Staying in Kanpur

The IIT Kanpur Guest House facility (also called the Visitors' Hostel) is the recommended option for lodging for participants. Due to the limited number of rooms allotted for this event, participants might have to share their rooms with another person. Each room has two twin beds, an attached bathroom, television and wifi internet connectivity.

There are some new buildings as part of the IIT Kanpur Guest House facility and some allocations will be made in these Visiting Faculty Apartments.

The registration page requests particiapants to indicate whether they wish on-campus accommodation along with their scheduled arrival and departure dates. For early registrants, who have indicated that they wish to stay on-campus for the event, we will make the necessary allocations and inform by e-mail of their accommodation status.

Please note that while we will make every effort to accommodate all participants wishing to stay on campus in the Guest House, we are not in a position to guarantee the same.
