Old hotel full of character; log fire needs to be kept going through to the end of the bar closing though.

Recommend

We had a lovely stay in the Bull, Fairford. Luke and the team couldn’t have been friendlier and more accommodating. The room itself was nice, big and comfortable and clean (booked the junior suite) in a central cotswolds location. Would recommend!

What a find

Unfortunately I could not park in the car park adjacent to the hotel due to a Christmas market but I found a parking spot which was only a 5 minute walk. The staff the bar area and the food really made this such a lovely experience. My waitress was so attentive. My room was so warm and welcoming, this place has so much history and it shows abundance with the fixtures and fittings. When I arrived for breakfast there was a fire already burning such a relaxed environment. The £15 breakfast wow what value for money, set me up for the day. I loved my stay so much I will definitely be returning for a few nights, this hotel has everything friendly helpful staff, great food,great rooms

Fantastic place to stay for a staycation with family visiting from overseas. Rooms are beautifully appointed and a great location both in Fairford village and in the Cotswolds to base ourselves out of. Staff went above and beyond to be helpful, nothing was too hard and were friendly and welcoming. Would highly recommend staying here and will definitely be back. A hidden gem!

Great check in and out, lovely food for dinner and breakfast , definitely recommend Only one thing Rm 17 maybe clean the shelf that runs round the bathroom as clearly hasn’t been done and a tray for the hand soap will stop issues further Other than this the room was clean, bed was awesome

The room was musty, had a bad smell, carpets and bathroom floors dirty. All the tables in the restaurant had a reserve sign despite being late and empty. Bartender unfriendly. Disappointing experience. I wouldn't recommend.
