The Bedford Balham - Live Music Venue - Luxury Accommodation in London, Greater London

Live at The Bedford offers free gigs every Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday in the 131-square-metre Club Room, a stage previously used by Ed Sheeran and Sam Smith. Banana Cabaret, London's longest-running comedy club in one venue, operates here and runs the annual Balham Comedy Festival. Club nights play disco, house, and 90s hits every Friday and Saturday from 11pm, and the Pop Quiz runs every Monday at 7.30pm.

The 15 boutique bedrooms include double, twin, king, and super king size rooms with Hypnos beds and Egyptian cotton linen. En-suite bathrooms have roll top baths or rain showers. Each room has a smart HD TV, air conditioning, Nespresso machine, and a mini-fridge, and hotel guests receive 33% off food in the Saloon Bar or Pub.

Five bars at The Bedford serve artisan spirits, craft beers, and cocktails, including a wine list. The restaurant uses ingredients from the British Isles, with responsibly sourced fish and a vegan option. Weekly deals include Pie & Pint Monday for £35 and Steak Wednesday for £45, and a kids menu with fairy cakes to decorate is available.

The Ballroom seats 128 or holds 160 standing, with a private bar and projectors. The Cocktail Bar, Private Dining Room, and Mezzanine provide spaces for private events, with the Mezzanine overlooking the Club Room. The venue is wheelchair accessible and offers photo booth hire, a resident DJ, and a photographer for events.

The Bedford is a fifteen-minute train journey from central London and a 35-minute train ride from Gatwick Airport via Balham station. Clapham Common and Tooting Bec Lido are within a 10-minute walk.
