    Nice relaxing stay

    Had a standard king room with air conditioning and a flat-screen TV. The bathroom came equipped with free toiletries and a hairdryer. There’s a spa and wellness center with a sauna, adding to the relaxation. Breakfast was a decent buffet, but getting a table felt chaotic due to its self-service nature.

    Lovely stay with rejuvenating spa experience

    I really enjoyed my stay, especially the Thermal Spa, which was a highlight for relaxing after a long day. The historic charm of the hotel adds a unique character, and I loved having a room with scenic views of the river. it can get quite busy on weekends due to events, making parking a bit challenging.

    comfortable room

    Family with children enjoy scenic stay

    The room was beautifully decorated and had a comfortable bed without doubt. We also appreciated the iron and small fridge in the room that was quite handy, especially with kids.

    It wasn’t cheap but still acceptable

    river view
    friendly staff
    outdated room
    limited amenities

    The Bedford hotel offered a lovely stay. I enjoyed the stunning river views and the beautifully decorated lobby. My room, however, left something to be desired. it felt a bit dark and small for the price. The shower was impressive, but the overall room decor seemed outdated. Staff were friendly and attentive, especially during dinner service. Breakfast had potential but fell short. the tea was lukewarm and choices were limited. I appreciate the hotel's location near the river for peaceful walks.

    Luxurious, luxurious, luxurious

    I felt completely pampered in my Deluxe King Room with its sumptuous linens and gorgeous decor. The picturesque views of the River Ouse from my window were nothing short of breathtaking. Plus, the Thermal Spa was a tempting oasis that left me craving a longer stay to soak in the relaxation!
