The Guest House:
Tucked away in the pristinely beautiful campus of one of the most prestigious institutions of India, the Indian Institute of Technology Bombay (IITB), the IIT Bombay Guest House consisting of the Jalvihar, the Vanvihar and a set of Faculty Apartments, remains a pleasant haven for the Institute’s guests, whether guests from academia, or the Institue's alumni, or the parents/wards of its students.

Just a short stroll away from the Main Gate, the primary entry to the institute, these restful residences are flanked by green lawns, walkways, and a pond which is home to a lively flock of geese. Great vistas and breathtaking sunsets on the Powai Lake, which borders the Jalvihar Guest House, while Vanvihar, as the name suggests remains ensconced amidst trees, complete the picture perfect charm of the Guest House.
