Wonderful stay!
Amazing stay at the Bedford. The staff were so friendly and couldn’t do enough for us. We got upgraded on arrival and offered late check out as we’re celebrating a special occasion, and also found goodies in the bedroom. Very nice touch! Room was large and comfortable, bathroom clean and modern. Breakfast was delicious and the location of the hotel was perfect! So close to everything but nice and quiet.

This was a great location with clean room.
Have nothing to complain as it provided everything I needed.
I'm not familiar with hotels around here but a gym would've been super nice!

I stayed here before taking the Eurostar back to France. It was excellent. Placed in a great spot for restaurants and still walkable to St. Pancras. The room was simple but updated and practical. I would stay here again.

Good choice in central London
This hotel is well placed, not too far from the buzz of Oxford street & Covent Garden and very close to the British Museum.
It's a good choice for a mid-price stay and the buffet breakfast is really nice.
Good wifi.
