The hotel is very nice. Location, staff, room and food was wonderful. It is not luxurious but very cozy family hotel. I think correspond to 4 stars!

So, most of the other reviews rant on about the rooms being old, etc, yes, the rooms are a little old, but very clean... So, let's think about what's important here, in a hot country next to a beach... the air conditioning works a treat, the hotel pool is secluded and ALWAYS have free deck chairs, the pool is VERY...

Columbus Hotel wouldn't be so bad if it was rated three rather than four star. Our double room with sea view was really poky with no hint of welcoming touches you might expect at €210 per night (plus €12 for outdoor parking). Bits of the terrace ceiling were missing and the railings looked as though they had been painted only... More

The hotel is in a perfect location for walking to the main nightlife area and also to some very lovely restaurants and of cause it’s near the beach. The room was cleaned every day by very nice and friendly woman. Live music on Friday and Saturday nights was extremely good. The pool area is very nice and clean there you... More

Recently stayed at the Hotel Columbus on a trip to Spain. Only stayed here for one night as we initially stayed in Barcelona and were moving up the coast (went to Roses, Spain after Plaja D'Oro and would HIGHLY recommend it). We were pleasantly surprised upon our arrival at this hotel. The location is fantastic. Right on the beach and... More

We had a great rate with hotels.com and were not expecting a fantastic place. The location is great, right on the beach with a nice pool area. This is a family hotel good for kids and mature couples. The place was clean, the personnel were friendly and the breakfast was more than I expected. The rooms are in great need... More

We come to Platja D'aro for the October beer festival and to play a bit of golf at nearby courses. The hotel is very quiet at this time of the year with only a few guests staying, but it overlooks the beach and is a five minute walk from the centre of town. If you can, upgrade to a room... More

We stayed 3 nights having spent the previous 2 nights in Barcelona. The town itself is great with a great beach, good restaurants and very few English tourists so had a true Spanish feel (with a good hint of French) The Hotel was clean, functional and the pool area looked nice. The rooms were cleaned daily with mini-bar restocked etc.... More
