Mercure Bedford Centre Hotel 4 звезды

The hotel is very nice on a decorative aspect. The food isn’t the greatest and the staff aren’t either. Attended a function, that was planned months ahead and the hotel was very unprepared. Staff Shannon was very attentive. 6/10 for me. Possibly wouldn’t return again.

As others have said, this hotel is right on the river with a lovely view from the bar and restaurant. Easy walk over the bridge into Bedford where there is a range of restaurants and pubs. The on site parking is plentiful and cheap at £5 per day. I stayed in suite 804 and thought it very comfortable with large comfortable corner sofabed and huge 'link' bed. The bathroom could do with an upgrade - maybe a shower rather than an old fashioned arrangment over the bath - but it was scrupulously clean. It was a hot day so the air-con unit was especially welcome. And I was pleased to get a fridge in the room, although unusally there was no ironing board and iron. The internal corridors also could do with a bit of TLC, but overall, and for the price in particular, this is a great hotel. Shout out to Max on reception who was so welcoming and happy to share tips of what to do locally (the tourist map is helpful), Aisha on the bar was great - really efficent and friendly, and thank you to Hermis who sorted out my Accor points for me within minutes of my telling him I had a problem. Actually all the staff were good with the slight exception of the breakfast staff who seemed preoccupied - they were serving breakfast in the main bar area as the usual venue was being refurbished which might be why - but they weren't terribly interested and as a result the breakfast - although with plenty of choice - was luke warm. But - overall - I have absolutely no hesitation at all in recommending this hotel should you need to visit Bedford. It's in the best location and it's remarkably good value. Enjoyed my stay and look forward to returning.

Stayed here for 2 nights and have to say for the money it was spot on, the car park at the rear was very handy, well worth the 5 pound a night charge. The rooms are clean and the bathroom was very good with a great over head shower.

staff are very friendly and helpful. i felt very welcome to stay at this venue . amreen was so kind love the hotel and view will come back soon for sure everyone in hotel was welcoming, if I am talking about room was so clean and comfortable

The hotel is in a very good location by the side of the river just over the bridge from the centre of Bedford. It has its own car park to the rear of the hotel which is reasonably priced. It is necessary to register your car at the reception desk as soon as you arrive. We had a very nice room on a high floor overlooking the river and the town. The room was spacious and clean. We found all the staff to be friendly and professional. We very much enjoyed our stay.
