Touring Officers' Hostels & Government Guest Houses
All 35 Directorate of Estates guest houses in state capitals and administrative centres — address, phone and map. Built for duty travel, bookable for leisure when rooms are free.
What is a Touring Officers' Hostel?
A Touring Officers' Hostel (TOH) is a government guest house run by the Directorate of Estates and maintained by CPWD, built for Central Government employees travelling on official duty. Unlike holiday homes, TOHs sit in state capitals and administrative centres — Mumbai, Kolkata, Chennai, Hyderabad, Jaipur, Guwahati, Pune. A duty booking outranks a leisure booking at the same property, but employees and pensioners on a personal trip can book a TOH whenever rooms remain free. Both AC and non-AC rooms are available, and booking is on the same eSampada portal as holiday homes.

Duty booking vs leisure booking — why the purpose field matters
When you book on eSampada you select a purpose of visit — On Duty, Leave/LTC, or Guest — and that single field determines three things: your priority in the allotment queue, the tariff applied, and the document you must upload. An On Duty booking requires your Tour Order and takes precedence at a TOH. A Leave/LTC booking requires your Leave Sanction Order. Selecting the wrong purpose, or uploading the wrong order, is the most common reason a TOH application is rejected at verification.
The cheapest legitimate bed in an expensive city
The practical value of the TOH network is that it covers exactly the cities where hotels are most expensive and holiday homes do not exist. There is no leisure holiday home in Mumbai, Kolkata, Hyderabad, Pune or Jaipur — but there is a Touring Officers' Hostel in each. Room rent is computed from city category, room type and occupant category, starting around ₹150 a night for a Central Government employee, and most TOH stations fall in Category B or C. For an employee posted on transfer, attending a training course, or appearing for a departmental exam in another city, this is usually the single largest saving available.
The same rules apply as at a holiday home
A TOH booking follows the identical framework: the 60 / 30 / 15-day advance-booking windows by applicant category, first-come first-served allotment, a general 5-night maximum stay, 9:00 AM check-out, and — most importantly — no refund if the room goes unoccupied or you leave early. The Director of Estates also retains the power to hold rooms in reserve for urgent official requirements. Full details, tariff bands and the booking-window calculator are on the holiday home finder.
