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.

Staff were very polite and helpful. Was not overly impressed with the room however but ok for one night. I doubt I would use this hotel again. Free parking and friendly helpful staff were two positives.

Friendly staff, although Hotel access seems a bit like a backup plan. Heading in behind the bar to get to the rooms. The showers also were iffy on temperature, solid temp for first few mins, then ice cold and steaming hot cycles.

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.

Clean rooms but surprised my room was not en suite, with a private bathroom up the corridor. Excellent staff. Dodgy door for access after 11pm. I was locked out and had to knock on the window. Also no breakfast available. Good beer in the pub itself.

Pleasant enough

The bathroom was shared and along the corridor - just as well we weren'f shy as we had only towels to wear!

Avoid pub quiz night!

Pleasant, spacious room, friendly staff on arrival, however no parking available so had to park on the road outside. It was pub quiz night and my room was directly above the bar, so it was very noisy (suggest avoiding Tuesdays or arriving in time to get a parking space and joining in the quiz!). Other than this a pleasant stay.
