The hotel was situated in the perfect place near to the embankment and not too far from the shopping area/pubs/restaurants. There is an external bar which unfortunately was quite busy and you had to queue up until a table was available. My room was very nice and clean, although it was a bit too warm the air conditioning was a lifesaver. Breakfast was served quite quickly and very tasty. The staff were extremely friendly and professional and a credit to the hotel.

Contrasting look and feel inside and out. Beautiful traditional building with dated but traditional features at reception and main building. Then a very modern restaurant with no traditional features at all. Hotel is warm and welcoming, restaurant is cold but vibrant. I am assuming the hotel is in a transition period, but I liked it anyway.

Riverside location was fine, and array of food looked very appealing.

The hotel has a nice history which is reflected in the main original building - very ornate and atmospheric.

The breakfast was very good. Our Saturday dinner was excellent and so was all service. The room was comfortable and quiet. Great weekend in Bedford and Bedford Swan hotel.

View, size of room, hotel features, friendliness of staff, location

Very central lots of character , The hotel has obviously a lot of history, but the food they offer has moved with the times very happy with everything , easy safe car parking

Staff friendliness and attention. We were well looked after. The room was confortable and quiet.

Location very good for town centre. The under cover parking was free for duration of stay.

Very close to the town centre and yet very quiet. Lovely outlook over the embankment.
