The hotel was very close to the British Museum and within walking distance of notable areas such as SoHo and Covent Garden. Access to the tube was also very close. The only negative was that the room did not have air conditioning and the window faced the street, so it was pretty loud at night.

We had a lovely stay at the Bedford Hotel. Close to transportation and has great staff Breakfast was consistently delcious and fresh. The only improvement I could suggest is installing Air Conditioning in the rooms. The room was a bit stuffy unless we opened the window. However, with the window open it was hard to sleep from the street noise. There was a plug in fan in the room that was very helpful in keeping the room more comfortable. Overall a good stay in a great location.

It is a very clean and comfortable hotel. The staff on the desk are very friendly and welcoming. All the other staff are pleasant and polite. Our only problem was that the customer lifts were very small, making it very difficult for my husband and i to fit in with his disabikity walker
