Right on Arbab Road in Tehkal, Shelton Boys Hostel puts students within arm's reach of the Ahmad Medical Institute, which sits barely across the street. That makes it a practical base for anyone studying in the area, and the commute to campus stays manageable, with Islamia College roughly 2.5 km out and the University of Peshawar around 3 km further along University Road. Sarhad University is the longer haul at just under 5 km. Rooms here go for between PKR 22,500 and PKR 38,750 per month, so there's room to pick something that fits a tight or a slightly easier budget. On the practical side, residents get Wi-Fi for coursework, geysers so hot water isn't a winter worry, and UPS backup to ride out the load-shedding that Peshawar students know all too well. Parking is available too, handy if you or a visiting family member arrives by car. Pakistan Post and JB Tower are both a short walk away for errands. It's an unfussy, well-placed option for boys who want to keep the daily trek to lectures short and the essentials sorted without paying a premium.
