Very nice hotel would recommend a stop there but wouldn't put up with the poor breakfast mains next
Pros:

Enjoyed room nice size plenty of light.

Cons:

Breakfast was a disappointment mainly the mains.My wife had egg Benedict it is was cold we even googled afterwards to check if it was supposed to be served cold which it isn't. We didn't complain mainly because we had to leave early as we were due in Newmarket to meet a tour guide at 7.45am just didn't the hassle of waiting and making a fuss !!!!!

Great place to stay
Pros:

Clean, comfortable, great location and excellent food in the bar. Love that it’s in the heart of Newmarket and surrounded by racehorses. Also, plenty of free parking.

Cons:

Nothing I don’t like - it’s my go-to place to stay when I’m in Newmarket

They over charge then charge extra for early check in

Comfortable room with exception of power in appropriate locations, with pleasant staff m
Pros:

Location was perfect for us.

Cons:

The room we had suite 2 - didn’t have a mirror with a socket for a hair dryer / hair straighteners and a phone charger, for the room you would expect this facility. Only sockets were behind the tv unit that needed pulling out to access them.
