“Not worth 4 stars”

Bedford Hotel

8 Jul 2008

I had read the reviews just before we travelled to Brussels and was a bit worried about what we might find, and to be honest I have to agree with what most other people have written.
The reception staff were frosty and barely uttered a single word to us when we checked in.
The room was small, old fashioned and lacked air conditioning and tea making facilities. While we were there, the humidity and temperature outside were very high and the heat in the room was unbearable- the little fan cooler they give you is next to useless! We couldn't keep the windows open as the kitchens were below us and the chefs were making a racket!!
The breakfast was ok but we couldn't find where the tea and coffee came from and the staff just blanked us.
I certainly wouldn't book here again and certainly don't think the hotel deserves to be 4*.

Santo Andre, Portugal
2 Jul 2008

Close to the Grand Place.
Room was an inside room, a bit small, clean, hot, without air conditioner, but with a very noisy vertical fan. If you leave the window, open, that will solve the problem, even the noisy fan.
Brakfast was very good.
All we asked the staff, they tried to provide.
We stayed for 3 nights, from Friday to Monday, and then we went to meet some friends in Mortsel.

“A great hotel - excellent location”

Bedford Hotel

17 Jun 2008

We stayed in this hotel for 2 nights as tourists. We were abit aprehensive after reading some of the reviews but it was a lovely hotel and in an excellent location. The staff were friendly and very helpful. The room was clean and well equipped. The breakfast is self service and very nice. The restaurant is quite expensive (soup as a starter 10 euro!) and somewhat slow but in such a good location there is no shortage of excellent restaurants nearby.
The bar is relaxing with entertainment on some nights.
Out the hotel door and turn left - you are a 5min stroll to shops, restaurants and attractions.

“Pleasant Stay”

Bedford Hotel

17 Jun 2008

Having read some of the reviews for this hotel I have to add my opinion as I am not sure what some people expect but I have travelled quite a bit and this hotel is great,not everything has to be new it was clean had a nice ambiance and I found the staff to be satisfactory.The breakfast catered for everyone where sometimes only continental breakfast is offered.I and my friends thought it was very good value for money and the location was good just within walking distance of restaurants and the Grand Palace.So please give it a try you wont be dissapointed.

“Terrible experience!!!”

Rio de Janeiro - Brasil
11 Jun 2008

Me and my husband spent one night (Thank God only one), at this hotel. The room was clean, but everything in it was old.....the refrigerator didn't work, and there was no air conditioning in the room, just an old tower ventilator..........and it was a hot day in May.
the furniture was very scratchy........
No way this a 4 star hotel.

If you can, stay elsewhere.....
