    comfortable amenities

    This place suits me perfectly, offering free wi-fi, a 24-hour reception, and a cozy bar/lounge area. The staff once helped with a morning wake-up call, which I appreciated. I highly recommend it and will return for Xmas.

    helpful staff
    good value

    This was a prime choice for exploring town in Bedford with a great value-to-price ratio. The staff was helpful when we needed room service despite the restaurant not having some cocktail ingredients. If you're sensitive to strong food odors, you might want to check for potential smells before settling in.

    friendly staff
    comfy beds
    decent rooms
    poor breakfast

    We had a fun group trip exploring local museums and parks. The rooms were decent, and we enjoyed the comfy beds. The staff were really friendly, making our stay pleasant and welcoming. Just a heads-up, the access code system can be a bit odd, but it's manageable.

    The breakfast didn't meet expectations. it took a while and came out wrong initially. We had to wait longer than usual for our order.

    cozy decor
    friendly atmosphere
    convenient location
    early bar closing

    A comfy little escape!

    This place felt super cozy! The decor was really bright and friendly, and I loved the separate lounge area. It’s close to the city center, so popping out for food was easy. My only issue was the bar shutting early, which meant I couldn't grab a late drink after a long day. Still, I enjoyed my stay!

    The vibe of the hotel was really lovely, especially in the bar area which felt luxurious and welcoming! The staff provided exceptional service, accommodating our request to eat in the bar during the Euro quarterfinal match.

    cozy atmosphere
    unique design
    convenient location
    compact room

    The room offered a unique design with character, providing a cozy atmosphere. The location proved convenient, putting me just a short walk away from local attractions and amenities.

    Unfortunately, the compactness of the double room left little space to navigate comfortably. I found the noise levels from the bustling street quite intrusive, making it difficult to catch some sleep, even with the windows closed. Parking availability was another hassle. the small car park was always full, and while I did manage to find on-street parking, it came with its own challenges. Lastly, the strong odor from the cleaning products permeated the air, which didn't exactly add to a relaxing vibe during my stay.

    poor cleanliness
    poor noise

    Unique, striking decor, Convenient off-street parking, Proximity to entertainment venues

    The heating arrangements need a serious overhaul!!! Insufficient sound insulation between rooms needs addressing!!! Consider improving the cleanliness standard, as dusty surfaces are unacceptable!!!

    authentic indian dishes
    vibrant bar/lounge area
    local pizza gem
    early breakfast closing
    flimsy pillows

    The Indian cuisine at Verve was a delightful adventure, especially the biryani! I also loved the vibrant bar/lounge area that made for a cozy hangout after a long day. Enjoyed a lovely stroll to Best Pizza just 0.5 km away, a local gem for a quick bite.

    Breakfast wraps up a tad early at 8.30, and the pillows were a flimsy letdown. The receptionist didn't bother with a proper goodbye, which felt a bit off.
