How to reach ISI, Kolkata:

Taxi:
If you are coming from the airport or one of the railway stations, it is better to hire a taxi from the prepaid taxi booth. Though the prepaid taxi fare is marginally higher than normal it is a surer and safer mode of transport. The Normal fare is approximately Rs. 170 from the airport, Rs. 150 from Howrah station, and Rs. 130 from Sealdah station. While hiring a prepaid taxi, mention Dunlop Bridge as your destination.
Meter information : The blue-bordered yellow taxis of Kolkata run on meter. There are also few red colored taxis which run on LPG fuel. However, the final fare has to be converted from the amount shown on the meter. The taxi driver should carry a conversion chart, but here is a quick conversion formula. Initial Reading: Rs. 10.00 . Total Fare: Rs. 2.4 x meter reading + Re. 1.

ISI Kolkata campus:
A map of ISI Kolkata campus is available at this link. The institute Guest House is marked 13 on the map and the ISEC guest house is located in the Neils Bohr Hall, marked 4 on the map.

Kolmogorov Bhavan can be reached through the Pedestrian Subway, marked 15 on the map and then passing through the portico under R. A. Fisher Bhavan, marked 22 on the map.

Phone calls:
Each room in the Guest House has a phone connection with its four digit number written on it. The complete number can be obtained by putting 2575 before them. You may receive calls directly on that phone. To call the phone from outside Calcutta, but within India, put 033 before those eight digits. To call from abroad, put 009133 before the eight digits.
Unfortunately, you cannot make direct external phone calls from the guest house. However, there are many public call phone booths in the cross road across the B. T. Road, as you come out through 205, B. T. Road gate from the Guest House campus.
