About this category

This award recognises a pub offering rooms where the bar, the food and the stay all stand out. Judges look for the guest experience, the quality of rooms and how accommodation and pub work together.

Eligibility

Open to UK pubs with letting rooms.

Judging criteria

  • Guest experience
  • Room quality
  • Pub quality
  • Value
  • Reviews

Qualitative criteria

Guests who want to come back.

Metrics

  • Occupancy
  • Guest review scores
  • Repeat stays and food and drink trade

Additional criteria

Entries should include a short description of the pub, photographs where helpful, supporting figures such as trade, covers, events or reviews, and, where possible, comments from regulars. Figures can be given as ranges and nothing in an entry is shared beyond the judging panel. Every entry should show a commitment to responsible serving. Judges consider the size, setting and ownership of every pub, so a single room village local competes on equal terms with a large town centre pub or a small group.
