The Columbus is situated on the south side of Sussex Gardens; an elegant tree lined avenue. The property is about 180 years old and was a former residence of the 18th/19th centuries wealthy families, it has now been tastefully converted to provide you with all you would expect from a good quality Bed & Breakfast, plus that little bit extra! We are just 2 minutes walk from Paddington Underground, Heathrow/link & Hyde Park, and with Marble Arch & Oxford Street just 8-10 minutes walk, you need look no further for a good location and London's best Bed and Breakfast hotel.
