This was perfect for our needs

This was perfect for our needs. An in-expensive, comfortable room, that has toiletries, tea/coffee making facilities and a small TV. Parking was free and within hotel grounds. Should you want to walk into Wellingborough town centre you could do so within 5-10 minutes.

Don't let initial looks deceive you, this was a pleasant surprise and experience. Friendly staff, very comfortable bed, clean linen and towels, and a hearty, well needed buffet breakfast the next morning.

Bedding and bathroom very clean; tea/coffee/biscuits and toiletries provided, but carpet in room was obviously old and dirty. Parking was good and well lit, hotel was quiet, except that I was wakened by someone knocking on my door at 1.30am. I did not answer but after a few minutes I heard knocking further away and voices so I assume that someone mistook the room. However, as a lone woman I was not happy to be disturbed in the night.

I stay at the Columbia as it’s convenient for our Wellingborough office and close to two supermarkets. It’s good value for money, has (limited) on site parking and a decent standard internet.

A warm welcome and clear communication. Very helpful friendly family run hotel. The hotel looks like it is slowly beind developed, so a bit dated in areas but clean, comfortable with easy parking. I had their chicken curry for dinner, really tasty. A great stay, I will definitely use again and llok forward to watch the transformation.

Good cheap hotel

Good cheap hotel. A bit tired looking in places but clean and comfortable. Plenty of parking, good WiFi, usual tea/coffee/ biscuits which were topped up every day, friendly and helpful staff. Bathroom with a walk in shower which I much prefer to a bath. The only issue for me was there was no desk/table to work at but laptops are called laptops for a reason! Room was cleaned and bed made up for me every day which a lot of hotels don’t do these days.
