The setting is lovely, but when I chose the roast dinner at £13 I expected more than a child's portion where style rather than substance was very much what was on offer. What was even better was the response of the waitress when I said this, saying 'well, they're just our prices', I doubt my feedback made it beyond her.... More

Stayed here last week for 3 nights on business. Nice pleasent hotel. rooms above the pub (which was really nice for food). Found staff helpful and friendly and decor of rooms modern. TIP: Ask for a room on the second floor as its nice and quiet up there. More

Dont get to stay here very often, but always look forward. Upon arrival you are made very welcome and the whole atmosphere is just great. Rooms are small but have everything you need and the food is very good. Carpark small, so get in early, but not to worry as free parking on the road until 8am I think. More

Frequently stay in Bedford on business and this place is an excellent change from the normal stale business hotels. A great atmosphere is the restaurant and bar with a lovely open fire made for a evening. the food in the restaurant was excellent if not especially cheap and the breakfast was freshly cooked, making a change from the greasy buffets...

We stayed at the embankment for one night in a standard room. We asked to be upgraded to a river view room but were too late as they were all gone. My husband mentioned it was our anniversary and they suppiled us with a bottle of bubbly on arrival which was a lovely touch. The room was a bit small... More

Stayed here as were going to an event in the town and had previously been very impressed when having an impromtu lunch a few weeks previously. On arrival we realised that there was a private event taking place, but were made to feel very welcome. The bedroom was at the back of the Hotel and was fine for our requirements.... More

Stayed here in business on the recommendation of a colleague. Lovely room, clean and spacious. No room service was available but I ate in the restaurant and the evening meal and breakfast were lovely. For anyone wanting to eat in their room there are some fast food outlets and a Tesco within a 10 minute walk. Needed to iron some... More
