Detailed Reviews
Truly a distinctive fine dining experience. From the moment you approach the property, you are greeted with a magical backdrop of natural plantings, masonry stonework, and pergolas. The landscapes simply embraces you. There are a variety of outdoor places to sit including the fire pit area which offered comfortable seating under the trees and amazing perennial gardens.
As you enter the dining room, the host staff is genuinely pleased to see you. I always appreciate the personal attention! Lexi greeted our party by name and warmly walked us to our table.
The dining room layout was well thought out and the decor provided for a very intimate setting. The stone fireplace will be incredibly inviting during the cold winter months and is a central focal point in the main dining room.
The attentive wait staff engaged us almost immediately with smiles and energy. Our server, Catherine was very well-versed on the menu and spent time describing flavors and the menu options.
During our entire seating, the staff insured we were comfortable and that our table was well organized and attended to for every course!
Our food was equally as impressive from beginning to end. We appreciated the variety and the selection for each of our unique pallets. I highly recommend every guest begin with a pop over. It brings back such wonderful memories of Maine, but it also creates the warm embrace of breaking bread with friends and family to start your dining experience. Each of our choices offered a well-balanced mix of flavors, distinctive tastes including one dish paired with a smoked chili yogurt sauce. It was impressive to see the unique seasonal pairings offered. For example, you must experience the burrata salad with heirloom tomatoes, watermelon slices and summer herbs with nasturtium. Another member of our party enjoyed the delicious salmon plate with peas, asparagus, and a gentle butter sauce. All of the flavors worked brilliantly together. We found the menu to offer a variety for all!
The desserts did not disappoint. So much creativity in flavors and the wonderful presentation!
Our party was also impressed with the beverage menu. Many classic drinks and some with twists, which only complemented the dining experience.
The valet service was friendly and seamless.
We are looking forward to our next visit.

Room 2 was spacious bright and clean. Love the large bathroom and walk in shower with its temperature controlled faucet handle. Takes the guesswork out of 2 knob start up. Nice fluffy robes and a complementary glass of wine were relaxing. Would have been nice to visit on a dry summer day rather than a rainy cold November night. The deck in room 2 has a partial roof view which I did not like as well as the gravel parking lot. Also we like to relax in bed on morning and watch network morning show which was not available on their satellite TV

The rooms here are small. TV is the size of a computer screen, in fact it is a computer that used Google Firefox. It is not at the level of most Relais Chateaus. In fact, in the many Relais Chateaus we have stayed at, this may be at the bottom. At $700 a night the price is steep for a small standard room.
The service in fine. Heated floors in the bathroom are a nice touch. The bathroom itself is large with a nice sized shower with good water pressure. Snacks and non-alcoholic are provided 24 hours a day. You receive charcuterie and wine in the evening. All nice touches.

The young staff left to handle the guests- paying Relais Chateaux prices- are unprepared for simple requests such as - can you provide a map of the property, where can we safely ride the bikes, what's the best way to access the Hudson Valley? They are well meaning and sweet, but without training or guidance can not provide the kind of service expected.
In addition, the restaurant is understaffed. It leads to delayed food, long waits for drinks and the check. The wifi simply doesn't work, yet the only way to access the menu is online. Our waitress ended up sending a photo of the menu from her personal phone after a long frustrating wait. We abandoned plans to return the next day because the service was so stalled.
Finally, we never received the cheese/charcuterie offered at check in and the breakfast provided to the room was unappetizing.
In short, it felt as if the owners created this lovely property but were not there to serve there guests.

Allowing extra leeway for Covid, I placed an order for a special Xmas Eve dinner a week in advance, but needed to make a small dietary change to the soup course. The restaurant has no voicemail box and the hotel cannot help since it is a separate entity. The restaurant does not even have an email address, only a contact form on their website. After many unanswered attempts, I spoke to a live person twice, both who promised an answer which never came. Finally two days before the pick up, which I had already paid for, the kitchen said it was not possible because my request was too late. They even declined to allow me to pick up the four person dinner, thirty minutes earlier than planned. This is a place that does not understand the value of a customer, and puts the capricious whims of the kitchen first. Many reviews here complain about problems with the experience, and I can tell you it is coming from the top down.

Rooms very plain, though nice bathrooms.
Check in not very warm or welcoming.
Woken early the next morning (8:15 on a Saturday) by a leaf-blowing session that lasted more than an hour, and included a thorough cleaning under our windows. No apology when this was mentioned, and we were not the only people complaining.
Made to wait until our “whole party” had arrived to have breakfast—we were three, with one still coming down from the room, and the patio was empty. Waited in the parking lot.
Dinner reservation cancelled due to weather, no attempt to accommodate us for the next night, even though we had driven from the city to stay there for the purpose of eating at the restaurant.
Restaurant servers sweet but not the level of service for that kind of restaurant. Maybe the nighttime is more professional—we wouldn’t know.
Barely a goodbye when we checked out.
It was our big fall getaway due to the limitations of Covid. Such a letdown. We have stayed at Relais & Chateau hotels all over the world. This is a cute B&B, nowhere near the level of other R&C’s.

My husband and I wanted to get out of NYC for the MLK long weekend. We chose BPI because it’s R&C and easily accessible by Metro North (we didn’t need to rent a car). We loved our stay here. The dining room was closed due to COVID but they did provide breakfast in the room. Emily, Josh and Vernette helped with ordering dinner in so we ate in our room after having cocktails in the lounge (with fireplace). There is an outdoor fire area which is where we had lunch. They had told us in advance about the kitchen being closed so we brought our own sandwiches. The Inn is only 8 rooms so book early - I can’t even imagine how beautiful it must be in the Spring. Thank you.

Hello Jeanie K! Thank you for your review and your kind words. We have many fine restaurants in the area which can provide your choice of gourmet sandwiches and salads for a picnic, or fine dining to celebrate a special occasion. Rest assured it is equally beautiful in the Spring, Summer, Autumn and Winter. Each season accentuates something special and provides different opportunities to explore the surrounding area. It is always beautiful in Bedford! We hope you come back to visit soon!

They offered a beautiful 4 course New Years Eve dinner to go. We arrived 15 minutes early to make sure the food was not sitting waiting for us. After waiting 30 minutes, what we got was cold chicken fingers and fries. The shrimp cocktail had 2 medium shrimp that were tasteless. The wedge salad was fair. The desert was a molten s’mores lava cake and was delicious. They failed to give us the extra order of fries as a side that we paid for. For $75 pp, I expected a feast. What I got was so disappointing. You have lost this family forever.

I didn’t know what to vomit over first. The yoga class or the food that I waited over two hours for. Rita’s class was less than sufficient and the food from a “five star” restaurant was tasteless, insufficient and could have easily been bought at a take out.
Rita is ridiculous.
Bedford a post Inn is ridiculous
And please see the photo of her sleepy face!.

Booked by my travel agent Virgi at Luxvoyage and professionally attended by zak, Lukas, Warren and Robert to a great family get together in a beautiful setting.
We booked 4 large rooms that were all tastefully furnished with a balcony . The breakfast was different and loved by all. Yes, it is expensive but worth it for us.
We will definitely be back there again.
