Lovely classic Hotel, lots of creaking floorboards, & I’m sure steeped in History. Staff were amazing, very professional & helpful. Food was good although fancied that second slice of bacon, sausage & egg at breakfast. Room was clean, comfortable. Portable A/C struggled to cool room temperature but not a major issue. I would stay again, so thank you Bedford.

We booked this hotel for one night, as we had a friend's party near by. The hotel is stunning from the outside and is easily walkable to the whole town, although we arrived late saturday and most things were closed on sunday. The room was very nice and big, however we were close to the area a wedding party was being held so it was noisy until 1am. The room was too warm so the windows had to be left open, there was no air conditioning, a fan was provided but this was too loud to sleep with, when switched on. Unfortunately our room was also facing the front of the hotel so we were woken up by people revving their cars on the main road. The breakfast provided was very good Overall a nice hotel, however I wouldn't stay again in summer due to the noise

Avoid ground floor rooms

Rooms on the bottom floor are the worse in the hotel. Lots of noise from rooms above and rooms at the sides. Stayed a few times and I won’t be staying again. The menu is too fancy and expensive.
