Review summary
Based on recent reviews
Powered by AI
The Jockey Club Rooms offer a unique experience, often described as stepping back in time, particularly with the crisp white tablecloths in the breakfast room. Many guests appreciate the spacious and beautifully furnished rooms, some featuring large bathrooms with roll-top baths. The location in the heart of Newmarket is ideal, and while some have noted that the bar area is limited, others found it adequate, especially considering the hotel's proximity to the High Street where takeaway options are available.
