Nice stay
Nice bedroom with excellent bathroom. Only criticism would be that we would prefer a king size bed as the one in our room was only a double.

Nice rooms, terrible acoustics!
Rooms were nice, but the noise from downstairs did not stop until 2am and kept us up all night.
The person welcoming us in the morning could have been a bit more friendlier and welcoming.

This is a pub/hotel. It is a pub with a small number of boutique rooms.
If you want a templated hotel with all rooms identical then stay at a Premier Inn, Travelodge or Holiday Inn Express.
It has character. We had a fantastic bathroom, very comfortable bed and great food in the pub. A twenty minute underground trip into the West End made an ideal location.

The air conditioning unit was only producing cold air on one of the coldest nights. Staff could have been friendlier when requesting information.

A good accommodation option
Decent accommodation albeit a little noisy on account of the proximity of the railway station. Bathroom a little confined but altogether good value when compared with central London hotels.

We were given a room with an accessible bathroom so it looked nothing like the pictures on the website. Asked to change rooms but was told they were fully booked. Our room also hadn’t been cleaned properly. Hair and mould in the bathroom, half drunk drinks in the fridge and dirty glasses. Carpet in the lift looked like it hadn’t been hovered for months.

Something different, great value
Only a few minutes from Balham underground, extremely convenient, easy check in, drop off keys quick check out, brilliant value, lovely rooms and a very cosy pub with fire. Would definitely stay again and recommend.

Great room, nice coffee and tea facilities and the softest towels. Only drawback was a bit of occasional noise from the train line next door - but ear plugs were also provided!

Such a great hotel, we were only staying one night while visiting London for an event in nearby Brixton, but will definitely be back. It was easily walkable and plenty of transport links nearby if needed. Room was beautiful, very comfy, and we had a gorgeous bathroom. And having a coffee machine in the room is always an added bonus! The Bedford itself is fascinating with lots of event space and full of character. Staff were lovely and very helpful. Will hopefully have more time next time to make use of the cracking freestanding bath!
