Pros +
- The spa/steam room amenities, the ornate decor in hotel lobby and the Christmas cheer.
- Friendy stuffGood restaurantGood view on the airport
- We loved our stay at Colombi Hotel! The property was perfect and very well situated to explore the beautiful city of Freiburg. Breakfast was plentiful. Staff couldn’t be more attentive to our needs during our stay!
Cons -
- Smoking bar/bed. Gentleman, word of advice, NOONE visitng from US will tolerate a smoking bar! Entire lobby stunk like an ash try, which is a shame, considering how beautiful the bar area is. The bed/pillows, wow. Why is a Europe mattress not one piece?
- As the rooms are very spacious there is place to put in a wardrobe
- Can’t say anything negative about this hotel! Would definitely stay here again if we are ever in Freiburg!

Great location and as they had not taken note of our request for a 1st floor room, the Reception Manager did upgrade us to a suite which was nice
The food in the Chalet on New Year’s Eve was not what it should be for the amount charged-the first 2 courses were fine but the main course was abysmal. Also the hotel was curiously lacking in warmth or atmosphere-reception was over staffed by a succession of young men with poor knowledge of their city: for example, they told me the Tourist Office would be closed on New Year”s Eve when in fact it was open as my Google search had indicated. Bar staff were the best but there is something lacking in Hotel Colombo and it left us determined to return to Freiburg which we love but not to this hotel.
nice sized and comfortable room. VERY good breakfast especially the bread selection
What a beautiful hotel in the best location (especially for the Christmas markets) the man on the front desk could not have been more welcoming and friendly, the concierge who brought our mountain of luggage was polite and prompt. The room was gorgeous, a big fluffy bed, large bathroom and view onto the markets could not have been nicer, must also be noted that this was the least expensive of the rooms we stayed in at the various Christmas markets towns but above and beyond the nicest.The bar was a great place to have an after market cocktail with the cool tunes of the piano man.Take the valet parking if it’s a busy time of year as it’s well worth it for the ease of parking outside and abandoning your car to someone who knows how to negotiate the trams!Great hotel.
The pool was a little cold
A lovely hotel in Freiburg’s Old Town. We received spacious, pampering rooms. Comfortable beds and wonderful showers. The hotel’s pool is excellent. We dined at the hotel’s restaurant and enjoyed every moment. Highly recommended.
Excellent location to all of downtown Frieburg and the property was very classically beautiful.
The rooms need some updating, it was near impossible to find an outlet and calls to the front desk were strangely unanswered. at times for requests. The staff seemed a bit young for a receptionist.
The room was great and the hotel was beautiful. The bed was comfortable. The location is very convinient for everything.
Breakfast cost 27 Euro and we ordered poached eggs and they were overcooked - they were hard boiled poached eggs. Also we have got Earl grey tea instead of teh English breakfast that we asked for. The buffet was very good with the very wide selection.
The hotel in general was nice. ( the entrance , the cafe downstairs , the views in the breakfast area , their staff were very polite and friendly unlike what's mentioned by others in previous reviews).The location was great
The rooms need major renovation , the beds , the furniture and the bathroom. there were only 2 electrical outlets and was hard to access
Very friendly staff, nice Environment, excellent breakfast
The hot water in the shower was difficult to regulate
Location is excellent, close to old town and shopping. Breakfast is pricey, but plentiful.
The hotel itself , breakfast, location
The housekeeping is subpar. The room is not clean, and they are not cleaning the rooms they make the bed, and thats it . Dust everywhere
The style of the hotel is of old fashioned opulence in the modern day.Beautifully attired, staff excellent throughout from the reception to breakfast.Smoking room and piano bar, easy to think its the 1920's.Will be coming back to this hotel
Leaving
Exceptional Stay at Colombi HotelWe had a truly wonderful stay at the Colombi Hotel and loved discovering the charm of the surrounding community. From the moment we arrived, the staff went above and beyond to make us feel welcome and cared for—nothing was too much trouble, and every need was met with genuine warmth.Do not skip the breakfast! It was absolutely delicious and surprisingly filling—we didn’t even need lunch, just a light early dinner.The location is incredibly convenient, just a short walk from the train station and close to all the local sights. Everything about our experience made us want to return and stay a little longer next time.
There wasn’t anything negative about this property only that our stay was much too short.
