Co-living and Unisex PG in Kolkata
Almost every PG in Kolkata listed here is a co-living PG. That usually means a furnished room in a shared apartment with common areas and a shared kitchen. Housekeeping and Wi-Fi are included at many properties, but check each listing. Most co-living PGs in Kolkata are open to both men and women, with residents choosing a private room or a shared room. Confirm gender eligibility and room availability with the operator.
Co-living suits working professionals and students who want a furnished room at a fixed monthly rent, without the house rules of a family-run PG. If you want home-cooked meals served by the owner, a traditional PG may suit you better, because none of the co-living PGs listed here include meals in the rent. New to the terms? Our guide on what a PG and a coed PG mean explains the basics, and PG vs hostel vs co-living compares rules, food and cost.

Things to Check Before Booking
- Room type behind the rate: starting rates are usually for a shared bed. Ask for the private-room price if you need a single room.
- Room allocation: most PGs listed are co-living, so ask how rooms and floors are allocated.
- Meals and kitchen: meals are not included. Check what the kitchen has.
- Deposit and token: most properties ask for one month's rent as a deposit. Some take a โน999 token per bed to reserve, so ask whether it is adjusted against your first payment.
- Minimum stay: listed as 1 month at HelloWorld PrideStay, Vision, Royal, Hilkon Homes, Soho and Tagore, and 3 months at most other properties.
- Lock-in, notice and refunds: confirm the lock-in, notice period and deposit refund conditions separately with the operator before you pay.
- Visit first: see the room and the building before you commit. Online ratings alone can mislead, as our 61-visit study of PG reviews found.
