Colombi Hotel

Sehr schönes Hotel, das Personal ist sehr hilfsbereit und zuvorkommend. Die Lage ist perfekt und die Zimmer bieten viel Platz. Wir werden es wieder buchen, auch wenn die Sauberkeit in unserem Zimmer nicht einem 5* Hotel entsprach (Staub und Fuseln, welche während unserem Aufenthalt nicht entfernt wurden und bei der Ankunft ein benutztes Badetuch hinter der Türe im Badezimmer.) …. Und trotzdem können wir das Hotel sehr empfehlen, wir hatten einen schönen Aufenthalt im Hotel!

Classic design like always, top notch service and food and beverage offerings, great drinks, overall an amazing stay! Can't wait to return again when next time in Europe to get to experience the great service again. Centrally located, convenient, only suggested improvement would be access point placement for guest room internet access.

This is the second time we resided at the Columbi (each time 5 days in two different years.). Absolutely nothing negative to mention about hotel or our stays.. We had two rooms each stay, perfectly furnished and cleaned. Excellent helpful staff. Wonderful large buffet breakfast with eggs made-to-order, if requested. Excellent in-building parking. Walkable to old town, shopping, post office, weekend outdoor market, opposite Columbi Park, university and sites. Indoor pool, sauna, workout facility. Short travel time by car or train to Black Forest, Switzerland and France. When visiting Freiburg, Columbi is our hotel home. Jerry Miller (USA)

The room was boiling hot and for 2 days I had no hot water. I complained twice and the staff didn’t fix the hot water and then didn’t believe me when I said it still didn’t work . . I had to get the manager involved in the end who was very apologetic . It was minus 7 degrees outside but no hot water .

This hotel is everything one needs during holidays in Freiburg. Unsurpassed ambience, a Michelin restaurant, a beautiful bar and staff that treats one as family. We have been guests at the Colombi for many years and there are certainly no short-cuts on service- always meeting expectations of perfection. Going during the Christmas Markets is a special treat with the Colombi participating through an outdoor wine stube and a "chalet" erected for the holidays in the Colombi garden. Meals at the Chalet are a special celebratory treat during this joyful season. Our family will continue to visit the Colombi as our home base whenever we visit. Next stop- summer!!!

The room was well appointed and very comfortable, thank goodness for the block out blinds! The only thing missing for me was tea/coffee making facilities.

We have nothing but good to say about our stay at the Colombi Hotel and will not consider any other hotel in Freiburg when we return. The hotel is beautiful and up to date in decor. We had a suite which was spacious and well appointed. The bar has an outdoor seating area in a lovely garden and we had a delicious meal in the restaurant. All of the employees we encountered throughout our visit were friendly and very helpful. You won’t be disappointed with this hotel.

Lovely location, beautiful rooms. The pool looked nice but wasn't open as far as I could tell -- renovations, perhaps? Honestly, I would have given the hotel more stars if any of the staff I met on days 2, 3, or 4 had checked me in, but I was so annoyed by the treatment I got at check-in that it was hard for me to recover my equilibrium. It's old-fashioned, reasonably quiet rooms, one side faces Colombi Park and a busy street, the other side faces a courtyard but has a view of the Münster (cathedral) over the neighboring roofs. Didn't try the breakfast so can't comment on that -- but they did provide an array of cute little sweets in the room on the first night, and a nightly turn-down service, which was a pleasant surprise. This room had the best and most beautiful closet of any hotel I've ever stayed in. The shower leaked, so I was very grateful for daily room cleaning so I could get fresh bathmats!

As others have expressed this hotel is opposite a park where students and homeless seem to gather all night shouting and making noise. It was very warm for the time of year but the hotel had turned its air conditioning off for the season. On querying this we were told to open the window which made sleeping almost impossible due to the noise from the people in the park which continued until 4am. On entering the room I noticed that there was not any tea or coffee making facility. On asking at reception they seemed surprised but bought a coffee machine but no kettle Coffee was supplied with it but the next day not was not replenished and neither was the bottle of water. The glasses in the room were also dirty with lipstick and fingerprint marks. There is a wellness pool which looks beautiful until you try to use it only to find that it is not heated at all “ in October in Germany” At breakfast I opened the Bain Marie to find brown concealed scrambled eggs and on asking the waitress “tongue in cheek” what this was she replied after contemplating “I think eggs”!!! but they were still not removed immediately For the high price of the hotel I recommend going elsewhere
