[Tagging] Pubs with accommodation

[Jerry Clough (SK53)]

Because a guest house with a bar is different from a pub with rooms. At 
least in Britain only residents would be allowed to buy drinks at a 
guest house bar.

As an aside, there may be a problem here with br-en "guest house" and 
"Gasthof", the latter being better translated as br-en "inn". I would 
generally regard Pensionen as more akin to the British guest house.

The issue is far commoner in rural Spain where many bars & restaurants 
will have a sign "Habitaciones" outside. These will usually be decent en 
suite facilities on the floor above the restaurant/bar, comprising 2-3 
rooms. There is often a separate door largely to allow access when the 
main facility is closed. These are very much ancillary features of the 
bar/restaurant to the extent that an overnight stay is sold from the 
till exactly like a beer (and either has to be payed for in advance or a 
passport/id card left until one has payed). These fit the 
accomodation=yes tagging very well. Some high-end restaurants in the UK 
may have a limited number of rooms too, such as Sat Bains 
http://www.restaurantsatbains.com/, usually rooms are available only for 
customers of the restaurant.

Larger places in Spain usually called Hostales are often also run from a 
bar, but will have many more rooms, distinct entrance/foyer areas and 
will be distinctly signed as such externally. I map these as tourism=hotel.
