Mercure Bedford Centre Hotel, hotel in Bedford

Mercure Bedford Centre Hotel is a wonderfully vibrant hotel, set in the busy market town of Bedford. Relax in the Bar before dining in the Restaurant.

The location was wonderful, right by the river in the centre of town. My room was well designed, clean and very comfortable. The breakfast was very good and with stunning views over the river. Check-in was easy, all-day parking was just £5 and the hotel itself felt secure and well-kept. Highly recommend.

    Bedford has a great museum & art collection at The Higgins & just around the corner is the world famous John Bunyan museum.Sadly the High Street is in decline with the recent proliferation of out of town shopping centres,but the river front Embankment,Russell Park & the site of Bedford Castle make for good walks. The town has some nice cafes & pubs & there is a market in the square on Saturdays-mainly fruit & veg & food.There are other stalls outside Boots selling clothes.On the other side of town is the larger Bedford Park,complete with Victorian bandstand & public swimming pool. Bedford has some lovely architecture & interesting old churches & pubs. There is a new cinema on the outskirts of town. For clothes shopping etc Rushden Lakes & Milton Keynes are a short drive away,as are many diverse pretty country village pubs for dinner. There is a large independent book shop in town which is worth a visit.

    Bedfords most redeeming features are the River Great Ouse with many walks along the embankment and further, 2 large well managed parks, plenty of history. As a base there are 2 amazing aircraft museums within 30 miles, closest is The shuttlworth collection at Old Warden, a bit further is Duxford Imperial War Museum. There are many other interesting attractions only a short drive away. As well as some really good hotels where quality and service are excellent The Barns for example,

    Due to the bitter cold weather it was was not the ideal place although the market was on and I got the wreathes for the church yards and cemetery so it saved me another trip to Bedford , there was a winter wonderland in Bedford park that is the first time I have ever known anything like that to be in the park.

    The large parks were very well kept and made for a pleasant walk. There is quite a contrast between some areas, the waterfront area is good but some of the suburb areas are quite run down and you may wish to avoid after dark. Plenty of places to eat out.

    A pretty town by the river but the town centre is truly grotty. Walked down the gorgeous d'Parys avenue into convivium of homeless street dwellers noisily drunk and swearing and at least two groups of weed smokers outside St Peters church. The high street was full of very rowdy groups. Then the serene river, along the embankment and up past the museum. Bedford seems to have two sides, tree lined avenues and riverside and a town centre itself that is in the throes of becoming destitute.

    I've never been to Bedford before but was pleasantly surprised. The walk along the river is lovely. There are there great museums, all free of charge. Lots of good restaurants, people were really friendly. We'll definitely be back.

    Jason who checked me in was a consummate professional, parking was close by and I was expecting to pay but it was free, room was clean and bed comfortable. I was meeting friends in town and it was a 5 minute walk away. I grew up in Bedford and the river is the best part, so you can walk out your hotel and stroll by the river. Overall good value for money.

    Central location, surprisingly quiet considering it was New Years Eve and we overlooked the High Street. Lovely clean room with by far the best shower we have ever used in a hotel room- didn’t want to get out! Staff were brilliant considering they were under pressure due to staff shortages. Would definitely return!

    We have been to the hotel several times. We always feel very welcomed and the staff are very friendly and helpful. As a couple who are currently long distance the Mercure Bedford has provided us with a hotel we are happy and confident to use regularly as our 'home from home'. Thank you again for a lovely weekend.

    I have stayed at Woodland Manor before & my room this time was the best so far,comfy & quiet. The hotel is located in a village just outside Bedford & has lots of free parking & thus is an ideal location for a lone traveller. The gardens are lovely.

    The location is wonderful. You can walk into Bedford town, or down to the River Great Ouse. Having a dedicated parking space was a real plus too. There is a washer/dryer, which was very handy.
