Verve Hotel

All the facilities, I have been before and enjoyed my stay there, so this time! The staff pleasant, attentive and vey helpful as I had a bit of pb with my mobile phone and helped with an another lead from the Hotel. I lived in Bedford many years ago so it was really great to be in familiar ground again! I have known the Hotel many many years ago in fact my own mother and a friend stayed there but it wasn't the confort standard it has now with the change of ownership!

What a lovely surprise this stay was! I only had a budget of around £80 and wasn't overexcited at the options when I looked on booking.com initially - but The Verve certainly exceeded my expectations! Good parking, really nice boutique kind of a feel when I got inside, staff were all so attentive. I was up on the top floor in the loft but despite a fair climb with a lot of luggage for work, they'd really made good use of the space - everything I needed with extras I wouldn't expect for £80 like slippers, comb, shave kit. The TV was very small and hard to see from my bed. Dinner was delicious, they have an on-site restaurant serving Thai and English food - and the Thai meal didn't disappoint! Such good value for money as guests get 20% of their bill. I had a generous Thai main and lots of yummy prawn crackers with dips, as well as an alcoholic drink, for £13! My room was pretty quiet and warm and bathroom facilities were good. I felt safe and comfy as a solo female traveller and if I'm ever working in Bedford again, I'd certainly return here!

The staff were excellent, both at check in and in the hotel restaurant where I dined in the evening. The room was big and comfortable and well stocked with tea coffee and mineral water. The bed was very comfortable and the shower pressure excellent. Best of all was the location - close enough to the town for convenience but far enough to not hear any noise and the car park was a relief as I’ve stayed at other Bedford hotels that are a nightmare!

Courteous, friendly & attentive staff. Chic and glitzy decor, yet calming and warm. Peaceful bedrooms with comfortable beds. Thai cuisine restaurant is exceptionally good yet affordable. Smoking patio and grassed garden area with loungers.

Great location just 25 minutes walk in to the town centre - free on site parking - a very warm welcome at reception - spotlessly clean throughout - we asked for a quiet top floor room which was provided albeit up some narrow quite steep stairs - the room was small hence slightly marked down in terms of comfort but fine for a short stay - we would definitely stay at The Verve again
