Eta Columbae is a solitary [8] star near the southern boundary of the constellation Columba. [9] It is visible to the naked eye, having an apparent visual magnitude of 3.96. [2] Based upon an annual parallax shift of 6.91  mas, [1] it lies at a distance of roughly 472  light years from the Sun.

This is an orange-hued [9] K-type giant star with a stellar classification of K0 III, [4] or possibly a bright giant with a crossover class of G8/K1 II. [3] The measured angular diameter of this star, after correction for limb darkening, is 2.48±0.03  mas. [10] At the estimated distance of this star, this yields a physical size of about 38.6 times the radius of the Sun. [6] It has an estimated 3.33 times the mass of the Sun and radiates 708 times the solar luminosity from its outer atmosphere at an effective temperature of 4,620 K. [4]
