Bedford Spa Hotels

You'll find our Premier Inn Bedford Town Centre (Riverside) hotel perched right on Bedford's tranquil riverside, close to town as well as some beautiful open spaces. While you're here, explore leafy Priory Country Park, get competitive at Mowsbury Golf Course or discover the medieval history of Bedford Castle. And after a day out and about, head back for a tasty dinner at our Thyme restaurant and then relax and recharge in your comfy, kingsize Hypnos bed.

We stayed at the hotel. Wasn't sure by the location since we thought it could be noisy for staying here next to a busy road. Needn't have worried since rooms are on high floor and could have heard a pin drop in the room it was so quiet. Also huge room, very clean and very comfortable. Staff could not have been more helpful. Pub is also perfect with plenty of tables, friendly staff and the garden is wonderful in the sun. Would love to stay here again and also to try other Wetherspoons hotels.

I really enjoyed staying here with my work, I have stayed before but since the renovations the hotel really is beautiful now. I used the restaurant too and the food was great, the setting peaceful and the staff very good. I was served by someone called Candice (I think that was her name who was excellent). I have attached some photos of the food. Also if you’re away with work and also a cyclist, try and take your bike too as there are some lovely early morning river paths to cycle which start just outside the hotel. Perfect!

Marcure Hotel is a nice place to be, the serenity of the place is awesome. Excellent staff support and breakfast was good. The location is in the centre of Bedford making it a very enjoyable place to be. Though Car Park is paid for, but the experience is worth repeating.

We did not have dinner here so cannot comment on that although the menu looked lovely. However.....breakfast was a joke! Myself and my 2 friends all got up early to get get to breakfast which is only served until 8.30am and when we got there we found that there was no cooked breakfast, only continental. That's fine but a continental breakfast does not consist of a croissant and an egg cup of yoghurt! Oops I mustn't forget the 2 slices of cold toast🙄 at not point when we booked were we told that there was no cooked breakfast....it clearly states on their website the cooked breakfast available. When we went to speak the gentleman at reception, Baz, he was incredibly rude and unhelpful. He lied, would just walk off and ignore us or was rude and a bit confrontational. He would not give us a head office number for Verve hotels. And we were not the only people unhappy this morning! It's such a shame because the breakfast, or lack of, and his attitude, has spoiled what we thought was a lovely little hotel. I've seen the comments on here from the hotel staff when they get a negative review and I cannot believe how rude and insulting they are to people. Rather than apologise and take on board these comments they just want to be nasty so I can see why Baz was the same! Also, although the small car park is free you have to wait for other guests to come and move their car that's blocking you in as the hotel allows double rows of parking. I would like to add that all the other staff we met on our stay were lovely

Moor up for the night at Premier Inn Bedford (Priory Marina) and you'll be sure of a great night's sleep. Located right next to the marina and lake in the tranquil Priory Country Park, yet within a 5-minute drive of Bedford town centre, you'll have a whole fleet of entertainment options within easy reach. Take the inside track at Bedford International Athletic Stadium. Hit the big sales at Milton Keynes' shopping malls. Plot a course to London on the fast train to St Pancras. Then drop into our tasty restaurant with attractive alfresco dining area, and drift off in an extra-comfy bed.

We very much enjoyed our overnight stay at this hotel. We were a family of 3 and shared a room. The staff were very welcoming and efficient on the front desk when we checked in. Once in the room we were very pleasantly surprised to see how good the pull out bed was for my eldest son. In fact it was a double sofa bed. It was very sturdy and had a very decent mattress on it ( unlike other top rated hotels we have stayed at ). The room was clean and had everything you might need , including iron and ironing board as standard. Breakfast was a tasty affair and staff were constantly replenishing items as they ran down. All staff very friendly and overall a great stay for a super price. Will definitely stay here again when we are visiting family again.

A great place for a weekend break. 13 of us had the most wonderful time and nothing was to much trouble. Located right by the river, sitting on the terrace watching the swans and the boats gently float by was most relaxing. Best thing about the Kingfisher was the level of service we received. We all thought the staff were outstanding. All working together as a team, our comfort was their main concern. From the check in at a very friendly reception all the way through to the bar and restaurant staff, everyone was extremely friendly and happy to help no matter what the question. The rooms are spacious and well equipped for the length of stay. very clean, nice large bed good size TV and tea & coffee making facilities. We had a view of the car park, I am sure that nicer views are available. Restaurant food was very good, we ate their both nights. Very large portions and all cooked very well. A well stocked bar with a very impressive draft beer selection. If I was to complain about anything, I would suggest that the availability of a decent cup of coffee at breakfast was an issue. With only instant available during our stay, if you are a coffee snob, you will be disappointed. There was a wedding party Saturday night and some of the guests were very noisy leaving the party at gone midnight, but that was not the Kingfishers fault. Would I recommend this location - absolutely I would.
