Matt E. Solo - Confirmed reviews ALL

The staff was super helpful and they really did their best, but the key cards kept not working and the breakfast wasn't that good. I think it also doesn't help, because I have to had the scraps on Monday as through the weekend the breakfast doesn't stop till 11pm and I wasn't told that it was different on tbe weekdays, so they had stopped breakfast by 10am on Monday which I was not informed of until I went and a loud man told me about it. Also the shower was cold on my first night and I had to go to the front desk, they did fix it. I also felt the heating was a bit intermittent and would loved a bathtub. Again with the breakfast, the coffee didn't taste that good from the machine and I felt like I've had better tasting breakfasts in lower star hotels. I'm glad I stayed there, but probably won't again.

Dear Matt E., Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback regarding your recent stay at the Mercure Bedford Centre Hotel. I appreciate your insights, as they are invaluable in our continuous effort to enhance our guest experience. I am pleased to hear that you found our location to be convenient and that our staff's service met your expectations. Their dedication to providing assistance is something we take great pride in. I am sorry to learn about the issues you encountered with the key cards and the breakfast service. It is our policy to ensure that guests are informed of any changes to our breakfast hours. I regret that this information was not communicated to you clearly, leading to your disappointment. We strive to offer a consistent breakfast experience, and your comments regarding the quality and variety will be addressed with our culinary team. Regarding the shower temperature and heating issues you experienced, I am glad to note that our team was able to assist you promptly. Your comfort is our priority, and I apologize for any inconvenience these matters may have caused during your stay.

Room was on the small side and next door room ensuite backed onto our room so disturbed us in the night. Windows shocking, out of the 1960s! Need modernisation urgently. Breakfast was better the second morning but staff very helpful. I don't agree with having to pay for parking on top .

Steve C. Solo - Confirmed reviews ALL

Nice staff and hotel is on the town bridge at the centre of everything so a couple of ticks there. I’ve stayed here many times and this time I was let down by the cleanliness of the room. I was given room 8 which is ground floor and has a wet room style bath room which normally isn’t a problem but on this occasion the sink support which had a chrome finish was covered in corrosion. I also found a thick black pubic type hair on the floor as well. (I’m blond haired so def not mine). On my first night of three I had room service and the empty tray stayed in position in the room for all three days. I know the room rate is not a fortune but just a little bit of attention to detail would have turned an ok stay into a good one.

Dear Steve C., Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback regarding your recent stay at Mercure Bedford Centre Hotel. It is always valuable for us to hear from our guests as it provides opportunities for improvement. I appreciate your kind words about our location and the staff. We strive to create a welcoming and convenient experience for all our guests. However, I am sincerely sorry to learn that your experience with cleanliness did not meet your expectations. Our housekeeping team is committed to maintaining high standards, and I regret that this was not reflected during your stay. The issues you have highlighted regarding the corrosion on the sink support and the presence of hair on the floor are concerning. Cleanliness is a priority for us, and we will ensure that this feedback is communicated to our housekeeping team for further training and improvement. Additionally, I apologize for the oversight regarding the room service tray; it is our policy to collect used items promptly, and your experience indicates that we fell short in this aspect. While I understand that your stay could have been enhanced with greater attention to detail, I appreciate your understanding that we continually strive to improve our services. Your feedback is instrumental in helping us achieve this goal. We hope to have the opportunity to welcome you back in the future and provide you with a stay that meets the high standards we aim to uphold. Best Regards, Denisa Lushi Front Office Manager

Guy S. Couples - Confirmed reviews ALL

Our 3rd stay at Bedford, also stayed at Pullman St Pancrass & Orient Express. All previous experiences were very good. This time in Bedford we left our room with the we're out exploring cardboard tag on the door & went out for the day, when we returned our key card didn't work & the cardboard tag was still on the door. Back to reception to get key card reactivated, back to room & housekeeping hadn't been to service the room, back to reception. The receptionist was very busy checking people in, when it was my turn I explained what had happened & was told housekeeping had finished for the day ( I refrained from pointing out that wasn't my problem ).I was offered a full clean of the room the next day but pointed out that was too late as we would be checking out. I said we needed a hand towel & bath mat to replace the wet ones we had left in the shower as is usual if you want replacements & we needed clean mugs & tea, coffee, milk sachets etc. The receptionist wrote this down & said the duty manager would sort it out. I said we were going out for a walk & then a drink in the bar before we needed to change to go out for a meal. On our return someone had been to the room ( duty manager I assume ) there was a set of fresh towels on the unmade bed, the wet towels were still in the shower, the dirty mugs & tea spoons were gone & replaced with clean cups, no saucers or tea spoons & a pile of tea, coffee, & milk pods were on the dressing table. The bin remained full. While I didn't expect a full clean of the room I feel the person who went up to our room really could not be bothered. On a plus side Clare who works in the restaurant at breakfast time was really pleasant & attentive on both mornings, maybe she could teach front of house & management a thing or two!

Dear Guy S., Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback regarding your recent stay with us at Mercure Bedford Centre Hotel. I sincerely regret that your experience did not meet the high standards that both you and we expect, especially considering your previous positive visits. I understand your frustrations regarding the service you received during your stay. It is our policy to ensure that guests' rooms are serviced daily, and it is concerning to hear that this did not occur in your case. Additionally, I appreciate your comments about the communication with our reception team and the duty manager. It is certainly not our intention for guests to feel neglected or that their concerns are not being adequately addressed. I will ensure that your feedback is communicated to the relevant departments, as we strive to enhance our service quality. It is encouraging to know that you found Clare’s service in the restaurant to be exemplary. Staff like Clare play a vital role in creating a welcoming atmosphere, and I will certainly commend her for her attentiveness and dedication. We take all guest feedback seriously, and while I am unable to make direct promises regarding changes, I assure you that your experience will be reviewed with our team to identify areas for improvement. Thank you once again for your valuable insights, and I hope that you will consider staying with us again in the future, allowing us the opportunity to provide you with the exceptional service you deserve.

Timothy G. Couples - Confirmed reviews ALL

Our Classic Room was tiny, just as well we are not large people. The TV channel I watched had the sound from another. The receptionist, I encountered, probably failed at charm school. I was surprised to have to pay to park in the hotel car park. The restaurant was not enticing. The corridors were very narrow, may be too many bedrooms had been fitted in to maximise revenue.See first comment.

Dear Mr. G., Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback regarding your recent stay at Mercure Bedford Centre Hotel. I appreciate your insights and would like to address the points you raised. I regret to hear that you found the Classic Room to be smaller than expected. Our room sizes do vary, and we strive to provide accurate descriptions to help guests make informed choices. I will certainly look into the technical issue you experienced with the television to ensure a better experience for future guests. Regarding your interaction with our receptionist, we are committed to providing excellent customer service and will review our training procedures to improve the guest experience. As for the parking fee, it is indeed our policy to charge for parking to maintain our facilities. I apologize if this was an inconvenience during your stay. Your comments about the restaurant and corridor space have been noted. We continuously evaluate our offerings and layout to enhance guest satisfaction. Thank you once again for your valuable feedback. Best Regards, Denisa Lushi Front Office Manager
