The room was pleasant and the bed was extremely comfy, the remote for the tv looked like it needed a good clean and the ceiling fan blew air up not down. Expensive for what it was, wouldn’t have minded if it was an £85 room.
They staff was very helpful and polite.
The food was nice and filling.
The room was quite basic, but clean and tidy. The bed was comfortable. Yet with it being a pub the rooms where not quiet till pub closed.

We stayed at The Crafty Cow because it was close to friends we were visiting. The staff were friendly and the room was clean. We arrived early for check in and the staff were very accommodating.
Lovely buzz , friendly staff and all you need in the room including a huge comfortable bed for 6ft 7in husband!

Friendly staff. I'd already booked but they offered me a choice of rooms as there was another one free. No hassle or complications such as lengthy registration.
Perfect location to explore Bristol's Gloucester Road shops and restaurants. Friendly pub with good food options and beer selections. Room was large and bed was comfy. Bathroom is small, but you get use to it.
Everyone very friendly and helpful. Hotel is situated near the hospital which was great as we didn’t have to rush to get there in the morning. Would definitely stay again, beer garden very well thought out.
We stayed one night during the week. Staff were friendly and helpful and our room was clean with two comfy single beds. Tasty food in the bar downstairs, seems popular with local folks. Plenty of eating tables. An interesting 30 minute walk down the famous trendy Gloucester Road will get you to the centre.
Nice family pub. It can be a bit noisy during pub open hours but my family were very comfortable and had a great nights sleep. The bar below sells nice selection of beers and the play area kept our daughter busy so we could relax.

Staff were excellent. The pub is lovely. Accommodation very basic, little bit dated and dirty.
Easy check in process with helpful staff. Room was a good size and relatively well equipped with a good sized bed, 42"TV and an en-suite with a hot shower. The attached pub had a good range of drinks and food.

Suitable to get your head down, reasonable rate. Clean and friendly.
Really friendly at check in and throughout. Free parking a bonus. Room was great for what we needed with good facilities. Loved the fact there was a bar downstairs - very convenient for a nightcap. Not noisy at all. Room very hot (weather was extreme) and only one window to open but there was a fan. Would definitely stay again when in the area,
