I was in Antwerp in May 2012 for a conference and moved into this hotel for the weekend for some sightseeing with my partner. It is a great loction just down from the Central station and a pleasant walk to the historic centre (and a tram stop on the corner if raining!) The room was large (bigger than my conference... More

We were really impressed with the lobby and excited that the rooms would be just as nice, but we were wrong. We were placed in a room at the back of the building and the elevator on our way there got stuck a few times and we eventually had to carry our bags up four flights of stairs. When we... More

This hotel has a great location, approx 150 metres from Central station. The old town is only 5 minutes away by taking the number 11 Melkmarkt tram which stops just across the road from hotel. The staff were friendly and the rooms were cleaned and changed daily. Also we liked the buffet breakfast which was plentiful with lots to choose... More

Close to the Meir, the big shopping street in the centre of Antwerp, we found Hotel Colombus. It's across the Opera House and the bus station. The manager (owner?) of the hotel was very gracious and told us a room was ready for us, allthough we didn't have a reservation. The room would cost €112, including breakfast and the overnight...

There is nothing really positivie to say. The hotel is not very nice in the first place. You can hear your neighbors in the next rooms. The breakfast is not great. The fittings in the bathroom are yellowed, the shower curtain run down, the rooms pacious but illuminated by the huge neon light on the hotel's facade. The worst hotel... More

The location of the hotel in the city center is excellent. I stayed in two different rooms and in both I wasn't bothered by noise from outside the hotel. The staff is very helpful and friendly. Ok, the hallways, the elevator and some rooms could do with a refurbishment, but all in all the hotel is very comfortable. Another asset... More

We usually stay at the Holiday Inn Express on the Italielei for brief trips to Antwerp,but on this occasion I fancied a change so thought the Colombus,being centrally situated with a wonderful Art Deco reception,would be a good bet.Not so. Yes its opposite the Opera,a magnificent building but dont forget its covered in scaffold as sadly its being turned into... More

My own experience mirrors the recent reviewer rather than the one from two years ago. The breakfasts have certainly changed, for example, as they are now of good (continental) standard and include a glass of proper orange juice brought in from the kitchen - not from a bottle but freshly squeezed on the premises. While downstairs is quite opulent, the... More

This is a dependable 3 star hotel. Rooms are old but they are clean, as are the bathrooms. There are ceiling fans in all rooms and nice size TVs. I stay a lot for business and it is a dependable 3 star hotel...good value...and a good nights sleep.
