Bedford Swan Hotel
An 18th-century hotel with casual, polished rooms and a brasserie serves traditional British fare including a notably well-regarded vegan afternoon tea that requires advance booking. The venue is appreciated for its relaxing thermal spa and historic setting overlooking the river, but the restaurant's main dining options have limited vegan choices and inconsistent service experiences. Afternoon tea visitors often praise the quality and presentation, while the hotel restaurant receives mixed reviews regarding food and staff responsiveness.
