Comfortable Hotel in Central London
Enjoyed our stay at the Bedford Hotel. Excellent location very close to Russell Square Tube station. Our room was very comfortable, overlooking the gardens in the rear of the hotel. The staff were very friendly and helpful. Breakfast was great, a lot choice, with cold and hot options. Very good coffee and delicious croissants. The only issue we encountered was controlling the hot water in the shower, it tended to get very hot and needed to be mixed with a lot of cold water. Would definitely stay here again and would recommend to friends and family.

Add the little things.
We have stayed at this hotel before and generally like it. The room was attractive, the furnishings in excellent condition. However, there were a couple of areas where we thought improvements could be made. There was only one chair in the room, another would have been appreciated. On this occasion we were in a twin room but there was only one bedside cabinet between the two beds. A quarter of this was taken up by the telephone. There was ample room for another one. The bathroom and the toilet was split on different sides of the entrance. This in itself was not a problem but we did think there should be a handbasin in the toilet area. There is room. The bathroom was cramped and we thought a shower rather than a bath would have been more appropriate. There was only one small towel rail but four towels. There was enough space for another rail [heated perhaps?]. Small things but do add up. The staff were very friendly and helpful particularly the dining room staff. Very nice restaurant.

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.

Great!
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!
