A New Way to Stay

Hanging out in The Parlour Room, lazy mornings in bed in your Elegant Room, brunch with friends in The Bedford Cafe… we’re missing it all. Mostly though, we’re missing you.

While we can’t wait to welcome you back, times have changed and so have we. Now, more than ever, we’re committed to reopening our doors the right way. Below you can learn more about how we are planning to keep our team and guests safe – leaving you to focus on the fun and enjoying your much deserved break.

So, what can you expect?

A Warm Welcome

This is the one thing that hasn’t changed! We want to reassure all our guests and customers at The Bedford that hospitality is still at the heart of everything we do. While we have some additional steps in place to ensure everything runs smoothly and safely, you can rest assured that what has not changed is our welcoming team and the best of Limerick hospitality.

All our Townhouse guests will receive a courtesy call the day before their arrival to reconfirm your reservation and any further assistance you may need in planning your stay in Limerick.

Our Team

Caring for our people, so they can care for you.

  • We’ve issued guidance and COVID 19 training to all employees. They know what they need to do to ensure you can enjoy your stay with us safely.
  • PPE will be required and provided to our teams for your safety and theirs.
  • Our team knows how to proceed if they or anyone they live with has any symptoms of COVID 19.
  • Social distancing will be implemented in all of our team areas.

Keeping It Clean

Cleanliness has always been a top priority and we’re committed to keeping it squeaky.

  • You’ll see us more often in high traffic areas, cleaning and sanitising down those pesky high touch items that need a bit of love. Think the front desk, bathrooms, door handles, counters, tabletops, lift buttons – all will be getting our undivided attention.
  • Hand sanitiser will be visible and readily available throughout the Townhouse & Café, so keep those hands clean, kids!

Checking In

Three different ways of checking in? Yes, that’s right, we are providing all our guests with three options of how they can check in at The Bedford. All you have to do is decide which is right for you:

  • Check-In at Front Desk: Available until 18:00 each day. We promise to keep it brief and have keycards and information readily available upon arrival.
  • Mobile Access: If you are arriving after 18:00 or would prefer to head straight to your room we can send you your room key to your smartphone. Just download the JustIN app: Apple / Android and we will take care of the rest.
  • Pin Access: If mobile is not your thing, we can send you a pin access number by email on the day of arrival and leave your keycard in your room.
  • There will be extra care taken at our front desk. Any keycards or pens that you come into contact with will be disinfected after each use.
  • The Bedford Concierge – get the most out of your visit to Limerick. To learn more or be inspired about your visit to Limerick head over to our Out and About page.

Cosy Stays

Back to basics.

  • In-room, we’re pairing it back to the essentials, keeping everything you need and taking out anything you don’t. The best of our complimentary amenities such as Ballygowan water and robes & slippers aren’t going anywhere and will be replaced after each stay.
  • Things like maps, notepads and pencils may have made their way out, but we’ll have everything handy in the event you may need it.
  • We’ve always thoroughly cleaned rooms between guests, replacing linen and towels, and we’ll continue to do so.
  • We’ll be paying extra attention to all the commonly used items – wiping down remote controls, light switches, A/C controls and door handles until they are squeaky clean.
  • Housekeeping. We operate a daily housekeeping service for all our guests, and linen is changed every other day, which we will continue. If you would prefer not to have your room serviced just let us know or pop your DND on the door.
