Dave W. Solo - 01/03/2021 Confirmed reviews ALL

I booked hotel for my father, he's 74 and was part of the honour guard for Captain Toms funeral, so he was very wary for staying in a hotel etc with all the COVID-19 stuff going on. As a result I wanted to make it as easy as possible for him. I called the hotel after my booking, a very helpful 'Andrea' arranged so I could pay everything for my father, room, parking etc. She explained all the covid related rules and options for dinner & breakfast. This really helped put my father at ease. So big kudos to Andrea, on arrival my father was very impressed with service, help, facilities etc and asked me to extend his thanks. Your staff's help, professionalism & more importantly their friendliness were greatly appreciated.

Dear Mr. Woolley, I would like to personally thank you for your excellent feedback. Your kind words are very much appreciated. Your comments make us all feel joyful and motivated to always deliver a high quality service in our hotel. I am sure Andrea is filled with as much joy and appreciation as all of our staff when reading the kind words you have used to describe our service. We are lucky to be able to host such kind and heart-warming guests like your father and I hope we can welcome you both to our hotel with open arms in better circumstances soon. Once again thank you for your amazing feedback! Sincerely, Wiktoria

A gem that I didn't expect

Donald M 03/11/2020 TripAdvisor review

All I needed was a short overnight around Bedford but I soon wished it had been longer. The bedroom was very attractively designed, with a great view over the river and swans, and with good facilities. Even a Nespresso machine! And the dinner was delicious. I'm tempted to go back for longer.

Dear Donald M, Thank you so much for the great comments! We hope to see you soon again.

939phillipr Couples - 20/01/2020 TripAdvisor review

The hotel staff were welcoming and the room was very spacious, comfortable and decorated to a high standard. Don't be deceived from the external view of the hotel as it does not represent the plush interior.

Dear 939phillipr, Thank you so much for all the great comments. Hope to see you soon.
