Pilgrims Progress Wetherspoon Hotel Bedford

Review by hotel critic

Review of Pilgrims Progress Wetherspoon, BedfordDuring my recent visit to Bedford, I opted for a stay at the Pilgrims Progress Wetherspoon, primarily drawn by its unrivaled value proposition. The hotel effectively combines affordability with a modern standard akin to that of Premier Inn establishments. The convenience of having immediate access to the pub and its vibrant atmosphere below is commendable. My room was spacious and remarkably clean, featuring a well-maintained sitting area and useful amenities such as an electric kettle and flat-screen TV—essentials for an enjoyable stay. The bathroom, too, stood out for its size and provision of free toiletries, adding a touch of comfort. Dining within the hotel is straightforward with a decent restaurant, eliminating the need to venture elsewhere, particularly for short visits. The extended breakfast menu presented intriguing options, while the average pub fare available in the evening pleased my culinary expectations. While the location allows easy access to local attractions— a leisurely 20-minute walk to the scenic Bedford Park— I suggest a uniform for the reception staff to enhance the professional atmosphere befitting the hotel’s high-end feel. Pilgrims Progress offers a sound choice for budget travelers seeking both comfort and accessibility.
