Review by hotel critic
During our recent corporate retreat at Horse & Jockey, I found it to be an accommodating choice for business travelers. The conference facilities were impressive, featuring ten purpose-designed rooms catering to various group sizes. Free Wi-Fi was a major plus, as we needed to stay connected for our research activities. We opted for the bar/restaurant for dinner since our schedule was uncertain. While the place was busy, we were seated without a long wait. The waitstaff seemed stretched, leading to a fragmented experience with our order. That said, the food was decent, reflecting good standards. The hotel's location was ideal for me, as I have family nearby. The room was kept clean with regular changes of towels and bedding, which is often overlooked in many establishments. I also had the chance to relax in the indoor pool and steam room, a nice way to unwind after a day of work. Horse & Jockey provides a well-rounded experience for those looking to blend business with comfort.
