A bit rundown? yes. Spotty internet? yes. Lots of street noise through the window? youbetcha. Indifferent staff? yep. Breakfast? indedible (really). BUT the location is just fabulous - right around the corner from the British Museum, at the heart of the metro system - and it's clean. Beds are comfortable. En suite is small, but clean and functional. For the... more

Last time I came to Europe it was june and I went to Hungary for businness. I thought the worst part of my experience there was my difficulty to find people who I could communicate with. Since it isn`t very easy to find english or portuguese speakers in Hungary.... But it`s interesting how we don`t give the proper value to... more

This hotel is not top price. It has a good location in Russel Square, nice and central, shops and tube station within walking distance. The rooms are old fashioned. We had a twin which was acceptable size but all fittings and decor were dated. There was some noise from other rooms. The breakfast was help yourself and was acceptable only.... more

Breakfast is very basic and mediocre. The whole hotel is very old and not particularly updated, but clean. Fabulous location. Free wireless. I don't think I'd stay there again, but... more

I looked around this dismal room and decided to call reception. They advised they had no other double rooms available but showed me a twin on the same floor (107).... more

We stayed at the Bedford for one night and found it very comfortable. I had booked a Triple room, but it was just a twin room with a roll away bed added. It was fine for the one night, but the room was quite small for 3 people and would have found it to be to cramped if we had... more

Stayed at the Bedford twice this summer while visiting London for some shows. We asked for a room on an upper floor facing the back which proved to be quiet and spotlessly clean. This hotel is not total luxury but it has many great features, one of which is the pleasant garden area out the back. The staff where always... more

When I checked in there was no twinroom available on the first floor.I was dissapointed but within a couple of minutes... more
