Character and warmth

The hotel is in a lovely location and has a lot of character, close by the tube. The room is excellent and comfy bed, lovely decor. Only let down and the manager on shift was at times, very unhelpful and I myself felt, quite rude. Apart from that, excellent place to stay

Amazing property, really nice manager and all the bar staff were so helpful- I asked for a special request to have the towels folded and she really outdid herself! The room was absolutely gorgeous and we loved every minute, the bar food downstairs was also fantastic. Nothing but positivity and really made our 3rd anniversary worth it <33

Best pleace to stay

Great hotel in great location. Metro stop was 3 min walk from hotel. 20 min metro ride (1 pound) to get to downtown. Cool style to hotel. Will always stay here when im in london.
adam, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

This is a pub/hotel. It is a pub with a small number of boutique rooms. If you want a templated hotel with all rooms identical then stay at a Premier Inn, Travelodge or Holiday Inn Express. It has character. We had a fantastic bathroom, very comfortable bed and great food in the pub. A twenty minute underground trip into the West End made an ideal location.

Very nice

Nothing unexpected. Just know it’s a Pub below and there is street noise. I brought a fan. Bedding comfortable. They do room cleaning daily. Very clean. We had an issue with sink not draining and they fixed it right away after we hung the “please service this room” tag. There is a very small fridge. Refillable water bottles. Small pod Nespresso. A tea kettle and variety of tea bags and milk and sugar packs. There is nice shampoo, conditioner, body wash and lotion. They do not have wash cloths “face cloths” and do not know what they are. There is a Sainsbury’s grocery store very close you can get anything you need. The food in the pub is excellent and you get a discount with room key. Close to train for Underground and International rail service. Overall very nice and I would definitely stay again!!

Lovely stay

A nice night watching the fantastic music downstairs and enjoying a friendly London pub. The Bedroom was roomy and well provided. Bed was very comfy and no street or Rail noise which was a big plus. Lots of places around it to eat or drink at, if the Bedford's menu doesn't appeal . Good price too

Arrived mid afternoon for the one night, and the manager was very helpful. We stopped in the pub for late lunch and we really enjoyed the high quality food. All the staff we met were very nice. The

Great location, comfortable bed

Bedroom was very boutique, however one bedside lamp taped up, bathroom sink took ages to empty, shower leaked on the floor , just some simple housekeeping to sort. Bed very comfortable and Fridays and Saturdays can be noisy. However great stay and would go back.

This place is in a great location 20 minutes subway ride from London. Restaurant on site. (food discount for guests) Sort of a historic building. Super live neighborhood. Very comfortable room. Internet was not good though.

Nice but noisy

Nicely decorated and comfortable, but can be bit noisy with trainline next door, bar downstairs and lots of loud slamming doors! Did the job for an overnight stay.
Stephen, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Great stay and ideal to entertain visitors.

We enjoyed our stay at The Bedford very much and it was a great spot to entertain friends and family during our 3 night stay. Excellent for transport links with the Mainline train and Underground stations literally on ghe doorstep. Only issues we had 1)being on the 3rd floor and the lift only servicing up to the 2nd floor (not clear from the online booking) and if like us you are over 60 with 2 suitcases it was chalenging so request a 2nd floor room. 2) we found one smal cockroach in the room hopefully he was a loner.

The air conditioning unit was only producing cold air on one of the coldest nights. Staff could have been friendlier when requesting information.

Bed rattling but nice.

The room was very nice. There was nobody around if you needed anything though. One night there was an event which was great but when I went back to my room around midnight, the bass rattled my bed till 2 am. But besides that I had a very nice stay.

Joyous

An absolutely joyous experience. We had no idea how much fun it would be. Having checked in, went to our room and on the way saw there was a dance class taking place which looked and sounded fun. We went to the bar for food and discovered it was half price on a Tuesday! Whilst having food noticed there was a play taking place close to the bar area !
