Room was spacious, clean and well maintained. There was no shower in my room which I prefer, and instead a bath was in the actjual bedroom with a shower attachment. The food was very good. I had the cured trout and fish and chips, which although expensive, was of top quality. The cooked breakfast was one of the best I've had, but as i don't eat much bread or pastries, they could have done with some yoghurt and a better selection of fresh fruit. Overall thoiugh, I would recommend this place. ##### John Stayed 2 nights in Nov 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Susan 10 Jan 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Visiting friends who live and are regular visitors to the pub.

The room was lovely, clean, and welcoming. Bathroom was modern and clean with good shower. The staff were very friendly and the service was great! We had a meal in the restaurant which was wonderful, the breakfast was equally as good! All in all a great stay and I can see us revisiting. ##### Gary Stayed 1 night in Nov 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Maria 26 May 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities #### Overall good with some room for improvement The room was decorated nicely and bed was comfortable but no air con, which was an issue in May but would be uncomfortable at the height of summer. Location is lovely and picturesque. Dinner was nice but felt overpriced for what it was. ##### Maria Stayed 1 night in May 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Phillip 3 Jun 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Loved the restaurant and the amazing staff and the location is wonderful. Only downside was the room that we were allocated while comfortable had an unimpressive aspect and was missing some finer details e.g. could have done with an extra chair and a small coffee table (the room was big enough) and it lacked hanging space. Overall though a lovely stay.. ##### Phillip Stayed 2 nights in May 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Joe 19 Jul 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Very pleasant inn for business or couples trip! The Packhorse Inn was a very pleasant inn to stay at for my business trip! The room itself was well air conditioned and the amenities were very comfortable. Any extras needed such as ironing board, etc were readily available from the staff. Had breakfast and supper multiple evenings of my trip and always enjoyed them throughly. Generous portions and reasonable pricing. The inn itself is located next to a quiet and quaint village which is a short few minute drive into Newmarket which is loaded with eateries and walking areas. All very nice due to the presence of the racehorse facilities surrounding the area. Would highly recommend the packhorse for business or a couples getaway. ##### Joe Stayed 3 nights in Jun 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Fiona 2 May 2024 Liked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Weekend visiting Newmarket. We had a lovely one night stay in the Warren room, it was very comfortable with a beautiful bathroom, two small notes, there is no accessible plug socket near the right hand side of the bed & the TV was not working while we were there but that wasn’t really a problem for us as we were out most of the time. The food was excellent and staff very friendly and attentive. ##### Fiona Stayed 1 night in Apr 2024 ### 6/10 Okay #### Verified traveller 30 Jan 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities #### Great hotel but let down by noise in room Was staying for business, hotel and service were excellent and food a high standard. My only issue was the bedroom (The Folly) was directly above the kitchen so very noisy until just after 11pm and then again from 7am. Wouldn't return as I value a good night's sleep which is a shame as otherwise ideal for my needs. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Jan 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### D J 2 Nov 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities Room was spacious and nicely decorated, had a great bath and toiletries. The pub was lovely and we found the evening meal delicious. The breakfast was very good also. Location was great 👍 not too far out of Newmarket itself . Easy parking, would definitely recommend. ##### D J Stayed 1 night in Oct 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Lucy 1 Nov 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort From the start to the end our stay was amazing. The staff met all of our needs and Ben was great looking after us at dinner. Dinner was delicious and the breakfast catered for myself and 10 year old son with the waitress being very accommodating and professional. ##### Lucy Stayed 1 night in Oct 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Alice 12 Aug 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities My room was absolutely lovely - fan on and window open ready for me on what was a very hot day.

The great wine list with many options by the glass, nice outdoor areas. Unfortunately, I was woken early by the cleaners outside my room running water and banging buckets. Breakfast was okay, only one person was serving and quite a lot of other staff standing around. ##### Charles Stayed 1 night in May 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jon 29 Jul 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Best in Class Hard to say much more positive about these guys and the group - they are just the best!

The room was nice, and the bed was comfy. Quiet area. Disappointed to see the tables weren’t cleaned from the previous day at breakfast (which also wasn’t great). I wouldn’t choose to return here. ##### Christopher Stayed 1 night in Jun 2025 ### 6/10 Okay #### jane 6 Oct 2022 Liked: Cleanliness Disliked: Staff & service I was disappointed to not be told until after I had booked that there would be no dinner or breakfast on offer. ##### jane Stayed 1 night in Oct 2022 ### 6/10 Okay #### Verified traveller 19 Jun 2018 Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Disliked: Staff & service #### Lovely setting ruined by terrible service.
