I found the Columbia suited my stay very well. I needed somewhere to stay overnight whilst working for the E.C.b doing some Cricket assessments. Although a little out of the way, the room was excellent tea and coffee was available in the room, shower room and T.v were again excellent. The best part of my stay was I must admit was breakfast when the staff could not have done more for me, I do not eat eggs or mushrooms so the staff offered me more Bacon and Sausages to compensate, very kind of the staff and very much appriciated. The hotel is in need of some Decoration as it's looking a bit tired in places.

I had to find the receptionist in the kitchen in order to check in. Once in our room we found the bed had been very poorly made with the previous guests linen still on the bed. The bed was made with clean linen when we left the hotel for the afternoon. There was no toilet roll in the bathroom and the toilet had not been cleaned from the previous guest. Breakfast was no more than a bun fight with a buffet style breakfast served on a first come first served basis. At the time of our arriving in the dining room we sat at an uncleared table for 10 mins and I then had my full english in three stages as the eggs, bacon and sausages all ran out and were replenished at different times. The staff were totally unable to cope with a full dining room.

Excellent buffet breakfast. Tea/coffee in room. Insuffecient tables for all guests at breakfast time. 3 couples had to share a table for 6 and two couples walked out! Had to request toast.

Nice big bathroom Breakfast - had to ask for coffee machine to be refilled, then wait for it to filter, had to ask for glass for orange juice, had to ask for bread/toast, no fried eggs. Overall, service and content was poor!

The full cooked breakfast. Friendliness of staff. Cleanliness of room. Tired decor. Thin walls and creaky floors. We had booked a double room, but got a twin instead.

The beds were really uncomfortable and the hotel was soo noisy at night you could hear when anyone moved around their rooms back and forth back and forth, there was no hairdrier or shower cap which is usually standard. We had no lights in our room on our return at 10pm and had to wait 25 mins for the light to be replaced in the bathroom and had to wait at the reception for 15 mins as no one about eventually had to change the bulb in the bedroom our selves! Also on arrival found that the payment had already been taken the day before! This has never happened when I have stayed anywhere else! I thought the price charged £85 was quite steep compared to say premier inn who have superior facilities at a much more competitve rate we only stayed here as we could not get in anywhere else . I will not stay here agaan

It is a very nice, clean hotel close to the centre of Wellingborough. It is close enough to the town centre without any town noise. It is very good value for money and I would thoroughly recommend it. The only glitsch was the credit card on reception did not work for either of my (very normal) credit cards.

The room was clean although, but is well in need of an update & decorating. The bathroom floor tiles are lifting, the shower did not work, when a member of staff was notified, the attitude seemed to be that they did not care. Also the walls in the room seem paper thin, we heard every conversation from next door and when someone was on the stairs, plus the hotel is right beside the road and you hear all the traffic. For what you pay it was ok, but could have been better. Breakfast was good, but thought it strange that no dinner is served on the weekends.
