Top Colby Hotel Reviews

Tufton Arms Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Lovely stay .not modern but traditional and clean .staff was very helpful and pleasant and breakfast was delicious…would definitely recommend"

Shap Wells Hotel

8/10 Good

"The hotel is in a beautiful spot famous for red squirrels. It was once a spa hotel therefore has a grand and historic reception area. The staff throughout the hotel were very welcoming and helpful. The hotel was very clean as was the room however our room needed some minor repairs to the decor etc. Our Sat Nav took us on an 'interesting' route to the hotel which was a track through fields of sheep! There is a much easier route from the M6 so just be aware."

Riverside Hotel

6/10 Okay

"Stayed here on a Saturday night and on first impressions of the reception and bar/dining/ terraced area, it looked as if the hotel had been given a bit of an uplift, the outside was in keeping with the era with the local buildings and ones dating back to 1900s. The pool etc and gym were good and enjoyed them. What wasn’t good was the state of the room, which was in a god awful state of repair, with evidence in insect damaged carpet, lack of painting for a number of years, wood facias all scuffed and chipped, the shower screen having no rubber strip to prevent water dropping onto the floor. The last part caused water to pour onto the bathroom floor and caused us to get extra towels to shower with as we soaked everything up that had leaked out. The furniture and fitting in bathroom were very dated too. I would have asked for a different room but the hotel was fully booked for the night. The bedding and cleanliness of the room was ok and the only reason we stayed there. I would say at £135 for one night with no breakfast, was grossly overpriced, by aporox £70, given the appalling state of the room. I wouldn’t recommend the hotel to anyone, especially at its grossly inflated price and would only consider going back if the whole interior of every room was upgraded. The interior made a Travelodge room look like a palace. Bitterly disappointed to say the least! 0 ⭐️ for bedroom and 3⭐️ for everything else!"

The Gateway Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"I have stayed at the hotel on a number of occasions and do so because I have confidence that it will be clean and well maintained. This is in contrast to a number of occasions where I have experienced disappointment when staying at other hotels. The general amenity of the Gateway is extremely pleasant and the staff have managed a relaxing and comfortable public area."

Frequently asked questions

What is the best area to stay in Colby?

The best area to stay in Colby is the Colby Village Center, offering a blend of convenience and local character.

The Colby Village Center is the heart of the community, characterized by its traditional English village layout with a central square and a main street, Main Street, featuring local shops, pubs, and cafes.

When is the best time to go to Colby?

The best time to visit Colby is during the warmer months, from late spring through early autumn, specifically May to September.

During these months, you'll experience the most pleasant weather for exploring, with longer daylight hours and generally milder temperatures. This period is ideal for enjoying Colby's outdoor attractions and events. For instance, the Colby Agricultural Show, a popular local event, typically takes place in late August, offering a glimpse into local traditions and produce.
