From the moment we arrived to check in we got great vibes. The welcome and professionalism of Sharon was top class - a lovely lady. The room was nice and comfortable and had everything we needed. Breakfast in the morning was so tasty - the Eggs Benedict with Burren smoked salmon we’re smashing. And again, the service was great. The place is well located- we will certainly be back.

This was our first time in Ireland, we traveled for three weeks staying at Hotels in Dublin, Galway and a B&B outside of Kilkenny and four days in Limerick at The Bedford Townhouse. We liked Limerick the best and out of the Hotels and Air B&B we liked The Bedford Townhouse the best. A smiling good natured Denice Brazil checked us in when we arrived, Denice explained everything about the Hotel to us along with informing us about the Hotels Cafe on the first floor where we had a delicious breakfast every morning along with a few tasty lunches. It only took a few minutes for Denice to check us in and a few minutes more to find our large beautiful room over looking the quiet pedestrian street below which was closed to auto traffic. On our first night at about 6pm we heard some soft violin music which we thought was coming from a radio but it turned out to be a man playing his violin just outside the front of our Hotel, he was so good that at the end of his 30 minutes of playing we figured he must have been a concert violinist. Everyone we met in our 4 days stay whether it was on the street, in our Hotel, in the local restaurants we ate at or to ask for directions were kind, decent, helpful people, we walked the scenic, litter free streets beside the Shannon River which was just a few blocks from our Hotel, toured King Johns Castle where a kind man we met there gave us a private tour, we also visited my distant ancestor Dominic Fannings Castle who was the Mayor of Limerick during the Siege of Limerick and was executed for refusing Oliver Cromwell's army permission to enter the city. When I return to Ireland I will be contacting Denice and booking a room at The Bedford Townhouse it is a 5 Star Plus in my books.…

The Bedford Townhouses were fantastic. I loved our stay. The room was cozy but not too small. It was nicely decorated. There was also a small parlor in the bottom floor just for hotel guests. The breakfast in the adjacent restaurant was very good. The staff were thoughtful and attentive. There was a little travel agency attached to the back of the restaurant (affiliated with the hotel.) Had I known they existed before our trip, I would have been tempted to use their services. You could tell that the people who created the Bedford Townhouse put a ton of thought into it and also had a pulse on exactly what a traveler would want and need. I would absolutely book this place again!

Our 1st visit to Limerick and we stayed at this super hotel! Denise and her team really cannot do enough to help you. Location, breakfast, rooms, comfort, service and cleanliness cannot be faulted. I would recommend without hesitation. Only downside for me was tea and coffee was downstairs in the lounge but that wouldn’t stop me returning!!

The customer service was outstanding. We were warmly greeted on the street by Sharon. Denise helped us make anniversary dinner reservations before we even arrived in Ireland. Sharon provided us a surprising upgrade to a suite for our anniversary and petals on the bed. She also provided an upgrade to our friends, that were with us, so they didn’t feel left out. We really enjoyed the room and our stay.

We stayed in the Bedford Townhouse for the weekend. The stay has been truly amazing. Starting with receptionists being wonderful (Sharon and another lady, didnt get her name), clean room with complimentary water, dressing gown (not to take it with you), slippers. Parlour room with coffee, water, wine, again, complimentary. A personalised card on the bedside table was a great touch. Breakfast was so delicious great options to suit every taste, had 2 soya latte during breakfast and was offered a coffee to go when we checked out, all included with B&B rate. I cannot recommend this place enough, great customer service, rooms, breakfast, location and the price. Thank you for a great experience, we will be back next year again

We stayed at The Bedford Townhouse during our recent visit to Limerick, using it as a base for our trips to areas west and north. First and foremost, Sharron was wonderful! From arrival to departure, and our conversations with her in between, Sharron was remarkably friendly and kind, detail-oriented and thorough, and always professional. Our room was tastefully decorated and well-appointed with nice amenities and comfortable bedding. The breakfast that was included with our room rate was hearty and delicious, and the staff at the cafe are fantastic. The Townhouse is centrally located and you can walk most everywhere. We were only able to see King John’s castle and a pub around the corner, but concluded that we should’ve made more time to explore Limerick and enjoy the hotel. We will definitely stay at the Bedford the next time we visit!…

Clean comfortable lovely rooms in perfect location . The big surprise was a little outdoor patio area adjacent to our rooms on the first floor where you could have a glass of wine or a cup of coffee and a lovely quiet setting in the middle of the city. The breakfast was superb with tremendous choice and beautifully cooked .

We had a stay for one night on 17th August. Had a warm welcome from Sharon, who gave us suggestions for pubs and entertainment for our night. She explained that they also have complimentary refreshments that we weren't aware if when booking. The room was clean and lovely. The beds were dreamy. The hallways smelt amazing. The was a memorable experience. The following morning it was clear that the staff were working super hard to manage guests in the cafe as well as hotel guests. We ordered french toast and pancakes for breakfast. Sizable portions to last us the day. If I'm ever in Limerick, I wouldn't hesitate to book a stay here again.

We stayed in the Bedford Town House, when booking I should have asked for a quiet room but didn't, when checking in, I asked if it was a quiet room and was told yes, unfortunately it wasn't, there was no traffic but alot of people around into the early hours. Also when will hotels put on lighter duvets in the summer months, another reason for lack of sleep. Breakfast was okay but we would have liked our orange juice before our tea! Doubt if we will stay there again.
