A charming stopover on the way north from Heathrow

I stayed here before Christmas to avoid falling asleep on the motorway driving north after an overnight flight to Heathrow and it was the perfect place to break the journey. The Bedford Arms is on the edge of the tiny village of Chenies and is a warm and charming small hotel with very comfortable rooms, a good restaurant and bar. The staff were all very helpful and attentive, especially the female manager - I felt very welcome and looked after. The beautiful and ancient Chenies Manor House is within walking distance but sadly was not open to visitors the day I was there.

Room was clean and comfortable but breakfast was not very generous. It’s on the menu we’re not on the table and service was not attentive. Had to keep finding staff to ask for things

Very nice property and exceptionally clean with very comfortable beds and bedding. It looks like they were a little shy on staffing thus service was a little slow, including in the restaurant. Would still recommend this property.

Beautiful hotel, stunning location.

Stunning bedroom, very comfortable. Quality products in the bathroom. Beautiful hotel but, unfortunately, when we went for an evening drink in the bar the barman seemed to be on his own & rushed off his feet. We decided to walk along the road to the Red Lion pub & had a warm welcome from the many staff.

Fantastic hotel with a wonderful pub attached

Such a great little hotel. Had booked one night mainly to have somewhere to stay before heading to Warner Bros Studios the next day. Had booked something that looked a little nicer than the cheaper hotels. But still looking for something good value as the hotel wasn't the main point of interest. However, when we arrived we were so happily surprised. It's located in a gorgeous little village outside Watford. The building is so lovely with beautiful gardens and outdoor seating. The room has wonderful character and interior design. Spacious and so cozy with very comfortable beds. We were absolutely gobsmacked and I keep thinking about when I could potentially go there again, we had such a lovely time. Staff was wonderful and so friendly. We also had dinner and breakfast, and I believe the burger I had was one of the best I've had in a long time. The breakfast was also very delicious and well worth it. The bathroom was also really lovely and spacious. Bonus points for there being actual conditioner in the shower and not just shampoo and shower gel. Id recommend this to anyone, and I'm looking forward to having a chance to stay here again.
