Checked in and from the start NOTHING was too much trouble, the young lad at reception was on the ball it put me on the back foot, it's so long ago I'd had service like this! Couldn't get the coffee machine to work & in minutes he brought me a latte to my room. He wasn't alone, all the staff went out of their way to engage. If I had to criticise, well the I'd struggle really, only the lack of info on parking on the webpage....and I know that is an Accor thing not the hotel as frankly they always miss the obvious off! To quote Arni.....I'll be back :)

Great Staff, Comfy Rooms

I stay at your hotel most weeks with work. The staff are always outstanding and very accommodating. Rooms are always clean and quiet. The only downfall with this hotel is the fact that only two out of the six cardio machines work which is highly frustrating when you have complained about this for the last month. Your hotel is the only one in the area that offer a gym and it’s shame you don’t use this to your advantage.

I will personally look into the machines in our Gym urgently and thank you very much for letting me know. Thank you for your kind feedback, and we hope to see you again soon for another magnifique journey with us. Sincerely, Jason M. Front Office Manager

An Ok stay

Barry Business - 28/02/2020 Confirmed reviews ALL

Nice easy check in and very good Team Members throughout. The website does not make guests aware that Parking 'Available for Guests'' has to be paid for. Nice room on 4th floor but was very disappointed to find no heating in the Bathroom and its winter! Fire Alarm sounded off at 06.00 and again a short time later - no one answered the phone. No explanation other than some other guests said its toast burning in the Kitchen!! Good breakfast.

Central for all amenities

We have stopped here 3 times now at this hotel, and every time it has been so lovely. The staff are always helpful, welcoming and polite. The room rates are good and the location is great with a lovely via on the river. The breakfast is always delicious with a great selection, I'm gluten free and there is always gluten free bread available on request and other options.

Enjoyable visit

We live in Bedford and it was good to visit this hotel with a splendid view over Bedford. Breakfast was good.

Great room, excellent facilities and great view

Emma Couples - 19/02/2020 Confirmed reviews ALL

We really enjoyed our stay at the hotel for a couple of nights whilst we attended a wedding nearby. The room was a good size, modern (usb charging next to the beds! Hurray!) with a great walk in shower and views over the river. The only slight downside was that we must have missed the opportunity to have the room cleaned during the stay so we ran out of mugs for a tea on the second morning but not a biggie. Would definitely recommend.

Judith M. Business - 06/02/2020 Confirmed reviews ALL

Our experience was very good, we were upgraded to a better room overlooking the river which was lovely , the staff and management sorted out a couple of issues so no complaints there. The only issue I have is the lighting in the room ( I’m assuming they are all the same) is very poor with no main big light in the room, and when you wear glasses and haven’t got the best eyesight anyway, a dark room doesn’t help.

Convenient comfortable hotel

Kevin Business - 31/01/2020 Confirmed reviews ALL

This is the second time I stayed here in two months - last time I was really impressed, this time too in many ways - the guy on reception helped me track down my phone charger I'd left behind on my previous visit; parking was easy; and location great. On the downside, I noticed a few minor annoyances about the room, which I hadn't picked up on previously (perhaps because I had a better room then...). There was no socket near the kettle, so I had to move it to the bedside table. The lighting was a little too dim - nice ambience, but could've done with the option of a ceiling light or standard lamp to read by. And there was no desk in the room - I wasn't planning on working and didn't have my laptop, so this didn't inconvenience me, but it could have been an issue on other occasions.
