Good old fashioned service. A clean room which was nice and warm. Breakfast at the Columbia Hotel was plentiful. Reception staff were friendly. Will stay here again. ##### Brian Stayed 1 night in Dec 2018 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Don, Worcester, gb 8 Dec 2018 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Nice hotel convenient for business location I was visiting. I was able to park in the car park behind the hotel. There would have been parking on the road if the car park was full. Staff very friendly and obliging. Evening meal excellent quality and value for money. Corridor to ground floor single room 20 I was allocated was a bit narrow but well lit. There were emergency exits along this route and comprehensive safety signage throughout hotel. I wasn't disturbed by the occupants of the neighbouring rooms so slept well. Some road traffic headlights did shine in the bathroom window but with the door shut this didn't disturb the bedroom. The free WIFI worked well - the key was available at reception. ##### Don Stayed 1 night in Dec 2018 ### 6/10 Okay #### Verified traveller 6 Dec 2018 ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Nov 2018 ### 6/10 Okay #### Graham 30 Nov 2018 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service Disliked: Property conditions & facilities #### Hotel a bit tired The hotel is a bit tired, although is good value for money ##### Graham Stayed 1 night in Nov 2018 ### 8/10 Good #### Ian 29 Nov 2018 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort ##### Ian Stayed 1 night in Nov 2018 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller 24 Nov 2018 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### nice decent priced hotel nice friendly staff. good breakfast ##### Verified traveller Stayed 4 nights in Nov 2018 ### 8/10 Good #### Kevin, Burnley Lancashire 24 Nov 2018 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Very friendly staff and a great breakfast, convenient parking also ##### Kevin Stayed 2 nights in Nov 2018 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Peter 16 Nov 2018 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Little Gem Don’t be fooled by the exterior appearance as this was a little gem that we were very lucky to find.

Rooms were clean but no bedside lamps and poor ed coverings were a letdown. The shower pressure was very poor and it's fittings were oose. Breakfast was very good for a slf service buffet, however the toast was somewhat soggy. In general the hotel was a little bit delapidated and rather noisy. I will not be staying there again. ##### Eric Stayed 1 night in Sep 2018 ### 8/10 Good #### Barry 7 Sept 2018 #### Payment hiccup but stay more than acceptable... There could have been a hiccup before arriving, as the hotel tried to take payment early. After a couple of phone calls without answer and a message through the Internet, it was agreed that credit card payment would be taken in person on arrival, as per the booking through Hotels.com. Our stay at the hotel was more than acceptable, otherwise. The room was comfortable and the cooked breakfast met our expectations. We thought the stay good value for money and would certainly consider using the hotel again, when next in the area. ##### Barry Stayed 1 night in Aug 2018 ### 8/10 Good #### David 2 Sept 2018 #### Character local hotel Stayed here before but on this visit the room was more updated with decor and facilities We stayed in room 1 which had a double and single bed configuration There’s a bar on site and a few take aways down the road along with a couple of convenience stores nearby Breakfast was great we had the full English but there was variation Car parking is round the back and there’s also off road parking if needed Hey it’s not one of the same chain hotels you can book on the outskirts of the town but the staff are very friendly and nothing was too much hassle for them to sort out If you are looking for a budget hotel with a good location and facilities try the Columbia ##### David Stayed 1 night in Aug 2018 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Vikram 1 Sept 2018 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort ##### Vikram Stayed 4 nights in Aug 2018 ### 8/10 Good #### Peter 22 Aug 2018 Not bad food good room ok would stay again good value. ##### Peter Stayed 1 night in Aug 2018 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [The Coppid Beech Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Bracknell-Hotels-The-Coppid-Beech-Hotel.h3809.Hotel-Information) > > [Carden Park](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Chester-Hotels-Carden-Park.h190780.Hotel-Information) > > [Hampton by Hilton London Gatwick Airport](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Gatwick-Hotels-Hampton-By-Hilton-London-Gatwick-Airport.h7234788.Hotel-Information) > > [Hampton by Hilton London Stansted Airport](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Stansted-Hotels-Hampton-By-Hilton-London-Stansted-Airport.h18464320.Hotel-Information) > > [Stratford Manor Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Stratford-Upon-Avon-Hotels-Stratford-Manor.h27936.Hotel-Information) > > [Ashford International Hotel & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Ashford-Hotels-Ashford-International-Hotel.h527123.Hotel-Information) > > [Retallack Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/St-Columb-Major-Hotels-Retallack-Resort.h4537229.Hotel-Information) > > [Bloc Hotel London Gatwick Airport](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Gatwick-Hotels-Bloc-Hotel-London-Gatwick-Airport.h6594190.Hotel-Information) > > [Sand Bay Holiday Village](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Weston-Super-Mare-Hotels-Sand-Bay-Holiday-Village.h11443695.Hotel-Information) > > [St Michael's Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Falmouth-Hotels-St-Michaels-Resort.h2951426.Hotel-Information) > > [Crowne Plaza Stratford Upon Avon by IHG](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Stratford-Upon-Avon-Hotels-Crowne-Plaza-Stratford-Upon-Avon.h11307.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton London Gatwick Airport](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Gatwick-Hotels-Hilton-London-Gatwick-Airport.h20753.Hotel-Information) > > [Norbreck Castle Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Blackpool-Hotels-Norbreck-Castle-Hotel.h6377.Hotel-Information) > > [Eastwell Manor, Champneys Hotel & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Ashford-Hotels-Eastwell-Manor.h905662.Hotel-Information) > > [Camelot Castle Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Tintagel-Hotels-Camelot-Castle-Hotel.h8083111.Hotel-Information) > > [Hollins Hall Hotel, Golf & Country Club](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Shipley-Hotels-Hollins-Hall-Hotel.h63744.Hotel-Information) > > [Chesford Grange Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kenilworth-Hotels-Chesford-Grange.h920291.Hotel-Information) > > [Grand Burstin Hotel Folkestone](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Folkestone-Hotels-Grand-Burstin-Hotel-Folkestone.h1201483.Hotel-Information) > > [The Mill Hotel & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Chester-Hotels-The-Mill-Hotel-Spa.h1695656.Hotel-Information) > > [Village Hotel Manchester Ashton](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Ashton-Under-Lyne-Hotels-Village-Hotel-Manchester-Ashton.h1848975.Hotel-Information) > > [The Winchester Hotel & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Winchester-Hotels-The-Winchester-Hotel-Spa.h26080.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton at St George's Park, Burton Upon Trent](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Burton-On-Trent-Hotels-Hilton-At-St-Georges-Park.h5094740.Hotel-Information) > > [Radisson Blu Hotel Manchester, Airport](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Manchester-Hotels-Radisson-Blu-Hotel-Manchester.h120016.Hotel-Information) > > [The Spa Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Royal-Tunbridge-Wells-Hotels-The-Spa-Hotel.h8849.Hotel-Information) > > [Hythe Imperial Hotel Spa & Golf](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hythe-Hotels-Hythe-Imperial-Hotel-Spa-Golf.h9108.Hotel-Information) > > [The Rutland Arms Hotel, Bakewell, Derbyshire](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Bakewell-Hotels-The-Rutland-Arms-Hotel.h792056.Hotel-Information) > > [Harbour Beach Club & Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Salcombe-Hotels-Harbour-Beach-Club-Hotel-Spa.h2261933.Hotel-Information) > > [Fistral Beach Hotel and Spa -
