Pros:

Everything about the Bedford Arms is lovely - all the lobby and common areas and multiple dining rooms are each unique and cozy. The outdoor dining patios are also lovely. Room decor was great - 4-poster bed, nice bathroom - everything was top notch.

Pros:

Overall stay nice. Staff very nice. But room needed a little a little bit of extra attention on carpet areas & walls. Also food at breakfast needed to be covered due to hot weather & a lot of flies.

Lovely place to stay!
Pros:

Stayed here as part of a long distance cycling trip (be warned, it is up a steep hill but worth it!), bikes can be stored securely and out of sight upon request.
Very comfy hotel, feels very luxurious. Delicious evening meal and breakfast, good to see lots of named UK sourcing for the ingredients. Beautiful gardens which, surprisingly, were only occupied by Tiramisu the Cat on the sunny evening we were there! Would stay here again someday.

Pros:

The Bedford Arms is a great place to stay, the rooms are spacious and well appointed, the bathroom had a really powerful shower which I always appreciate.
The Breakfast is First Class and cooked to order.
The room rate is however usually out of my allowance, but this is a regional issue.

A charming country hotel!
Pros:

The hotel is in a very picturesque setting in rural Chenies. We had a spacious, spotless room and a large ensuite bathroom with shower. Everything was in good condition and the sheets and towels were of excellent quality. Having a fridge was also very useful. The evening meal was tasty, though the choices were limited, as there had been problems with deliveries. The full English breakfast the next morning was plentiful and delicious. All the staff were friendly, polite and professional. We would certainly return if we were in the area again.

Pros:

The room was beautifully appointed. Last stayed here 5 years ago - what a transformation! Lovely linen and huge towels. Coffee machine, air con and good toiletries. Fresh milk - lovely touch.
Dinner menu was typical pub grub. Fish and chips a bit too oily for me. Breakfast was excellent- good choice and plenty (we were too full up from dinner to take advantage!) super friendly staff.
