Albero Bedrooms, hotel in Bedford

Situated in Bedford, Albero Bedrooms has a fitness centre, restaurant, bar, and free WiFi throughout the property.

Everything: the rooms were clean, comfortable and excellent value for money. The decor was gorgeous and gave a really decadent feel to our stay. We had a bath in our bedroom, which we didn't use but made the room look very glamorous. There was also a separate bathroom with a shower that we did use! This was really well equipped with everything you could need. The view over the river was beautiful and there was very little noise from the street and the bar below us. The staff were all super friendly and helpful and the location was central to Bedford town. We will definitely use Albero Rooms again.

Bedford Swan Hotel and Thermal Spa, hotel in Bedford

With a location overlooking the Great Ouse River in Bedford’s town centre. Bedford Rail Station is only 1 mile from the hotel, providing 40-minute links to central London.

We wanted to attend Bedford Regatta, so the location and the room was ideal. I booked the room well ahead through booking.com, but then received four e-mails offering upgrades which I would have considered, but it was near impossible to get anyone to pick up the phone for reservations or reception when I made multiple attempts and when I finally got through nothing was available which was disappointing having been led to believe there was. Our room had no view (226) and the air conditioning unit did not cool the room to a comfortable level, but otherwise had everything we needed. Breakfast and car parking were both included which was welcome and acceptable.

    Bedford has a great museum & art collection at The Higgins & just around the corner is the world famous John Bunyan museum.Sadly the High Street is in decline with the recent proliferation of out of town shopping centres,but the river front Embankment,Russell Park & the site of Bedford Castle make for good walks. The town has some nice cafes & pubs & there is a market in the square on Saturdays-mainly fruit & veg & food.There are other stalls outside Boots selling clothes.On the other side of town is the larger Bedford Park,complete with Victorian bandstand & public swimming pool. Bedford has some lovely architecture & interesting old churches & pubs. There is a new cinema on the outskirts of town. For clothes shopping etc Rushden Lakes & Milton Keynes are a short drive away,as are many diverse pretty country village pubs for dinner. There is a large independent book shop in town which is worth a visit.

    Bedfords most redeeming features are the River Great Ouse with many walks along the embankment and further, 2 large well managed parks, plenty of history. As a base there are 2 amazing aircraft museums within 30 miles, closest is The shuttlworth collection at Old Warden, a bit further is Duxford Imperial War Museum. There are many other interesting attractions only a short drive away. As well as some really good hotels where quality and service are excellent The Barns for example,

    Due to the bitter cold weather it was was not the ideal place although the market was on and I got the wreathes for the church yards and cemetery so it saved me another trip to Bedford , there was a winter wonderland in Bedford park that is the first time I have ever known anything like that to be in the park.

    The large parks were very well kept and made for a pleasant walk. There is quite a contrast between some areas, the waterfront area is good but some of the suburb areas are quite run down and you may wish to avoid after dark. Plenty of places to eat out.

    A pretty town by the river but the town centre is truly grotty. Walked down the gorgeous d'Parys avenue into convivium of homeless street dwellers noisily drunk and swearing and at least two groups of weed smokers outside St Peters church. The high street was full of very rowdy groups. Then the serene river, along the embankment and up past the museum. Bedford seems to have two sides, tree lined avenues and riverside and a town centre itself that is in the throes of becoming destitute.

    I've never been to Bedford before but was pleasantly surprised. The walk along the river is lovely. There are there great museums, all free of charge. Lots of good restaurants, people were really friendly. We'll definitely be back.

    Excellent location for walking into Bedford (appx 5-8 mins)Breakfast was a cook it yourself continental style breakfast, with a Microwave and Toaster facilities. So scrambled eggs and beans on toast type breakfast. The hotel provided the Tea bags,cereals and complimentary cakes and fruit but you have to bring your own milk. I bought my own eggs, ham and beans. Basically buy what you want for breakfast: different!!. Owner called in to chat to make sure everything was ok which was a nice touch.

    A fine venue, with a convenient car park for someone, like me, doing an event at the Corn Exchange. This is the 1960s building with the slightly faded windows and the grotty exterior that you can see from the Swan Hotel. But it's fine inside. So, ironically, the more expensive Swan gets a view across the river at the slightly messy looking Mercure, while the Mercure's beautifully sunlit breakfast room gets a lovely view of the classic old Swan and the best side of Bedford.

    We were really impressed with our stay at the embankment hotel. We had our two young children with us and the room was set up perfectly. Very clean and well presented room. We had a lovely breakfast as well and the staff were really accommodating. We have friends who live in Bedford and would certainly stay here again. Lovely hotel and location and great value for money!

    Firstly parking at the hotel is very close and only £5 for 24 hours so a winner for a centre hotel. The staff are super helpful and friendly. The room was very clean and had a lovely view. Lastly…breakfast. It was fantastic. The restaurant was immaculate, food was hot and plenty of it. The best pancake maker ever!

    This is within easy walking distance if on contract to the Bedford South Wing Hospital. The geese, swan and sea gulls in the morning and evening was a sight to delight the heart! Quite serene surroundings with opulent rooms to make one feel pampered.
