Review summary

Based on recent reviews

The Columbus Hotel is often praised for its convenient location near Paddington Station, making it easy to access both Heathrow Airport via the Elizabeth Line and central London. Many appreciate the proximity to public transport, shops, and restaurants. Rooms are generally considered spacious, especially given London standards, and while the bathrooms are sometimes noted as compact, they provide all the necessities. Breakfast, though requiring a pre-booked time slot at 8 or 9 am, offers a continental selection with both sweet and savory options.

a fairly standard stay

excellent location included breakfast friendly staff small washroom difficult window absent air conditioning

the location was excellent for getting around. the breakfast included toast, cereal, and croissants. thomas, a staff member, warmed up my croissant one morning, sweet.

the washroom was small and a bit clunky. the window was very difficult to open. there wasn't any air conditioning, just an old fan, it was very warm.
