Both restaurants house a (mock) Bar for training students in the art of conjuring up delicious mocktails, and other concocted beverages.

Housekeeping Learning Centre

Housekeeping, or Accommodation Operations as it is called today, is the unacknowledged backbone of any organisation, especially so in the hospitality industry. In this centre, the students of the B.Sc. programme are introduced to and instructed in the art of providing a clean, comfortable and beautiful atmosphere for the guests.

They are instructed in the skills of preparing rooms, keeping public areas in an aesthetic condition, providing clean, stain-free linen, arranging flowers and learning the management aspects that go into providing smooth, efficient and effective services to the recipients of these services.

Front Office Learning Centre

The Front Office is the first and last point of contact between the guest and the hotel and so bears the responsibility of forming lasting impressions on them. Here the students learn the hard work and thought that goes into making this very attractive and glamorous job.

They are instructed in the art of handling a variety of situations through role play , mock reservation, registration and check-out procedures. In addition, in the Second Year and Third year Of the B.Sc. programmes, they are also given an opportunity to use demo software, as are used in the hotels, equipping them for their training and impending placements.
