  • Sas from Australia (8/10)

    I loved the quirkiness of The Colombia. It really was like stepping back in time but in a really good way. The beds were so comfortable and I liked that we could crack a window to cool down, even in winter! Location opposite Kensington Gardens and the close proximity to multiple tube stations as well as Paddington Station made it perfect.
