Quite outside of Franconia located. First impression from the outside may be not the best but as soon as you open the door - you will love it. Beautiful interior. Ok it's quite old, and the room door has quite a gap to the floor, but ok it's an old building. Tremendous food for dinner and breakfast. Compliments to the... More

A group of us stayed at this lovely Horse and Hound Inn over the weekend. Some to ski at Cannon and Bretton Woods and some to shop and antique. The innkeepers, Ron and Ken, were welcoming and attentive. The food was outstanding including the clams casino at the bar right down to the delicious chocolate pie for dessert! The three... More

We were so happy to have found the Horse and Hound. We had a lovely time at this lovingly restored yet not pretentious inn. Ron and Ken have done a great job creating a comfortable, relaxed spot with a very good vibe. The setting was beautiful, the bed was comfy, and the scones and omelets Ron made in the AM... More

We stayed in the inn over new year's for 2 days on a stay-eat-ski package at this impeccably restored 1800s inn. Despite the lack of snow, we had an excellent time; the service was top notch from the very involved and personable owners Ken and Ron. if you have special dietary needs, they will go out of their way to...

My partner and I just spent a weekend at the Horse and Hound Inn in Franconia. It is a beautiful Inn that has been lovingly restored by the owners. The owners are obviously very involved in the running of the Inn and the restaurant and were very friendly and helpful. They obviously care a lot about the Inn and their... More

We stumbled upon the Horse and Hound by accident after skiing at Cannon. We were told dinner began at ,but we were welcome to come in for an Apres ski cocktail and try some of the vegetarian chili they had in the library. The Chili was of the charts as was the impeccable restoration of a late 1800's building. We... More

We stayed in the inn last weekend. The owners are very polite and helpful. They keep the beautiful inn spic and span. They served us hot tea in our room, just the way we wanted it and offered us tasty vegetarian dishes when wetold them we donot eat meat. The ambiance of the entire place is very soothing. More

We stayed for 2 nights. While the weather didn't cooperate (we only had a dusting of snow, not enough for the cross-country skiing and snowshoeing we were hoping to try), it was nonetheless a wonderful weekend. The Horse and Hound has been recently renovated and everything has been very tastefully chosen. The library and dining areas are very handsome, and... More

I went there with friends this evening for dinner... and, all I will say is that I am in my late forties and tonight was the first night I have ever gotten goosebumps from a dish....the Salmon with the Blood Orange Buerre Blanc was amazing.

Stayed for 2 nights in October. Very welcoming, great food and generally good service. Breakfast is casual and all home made and freshly prepared. If you stay and want to have dinner, and you should as the menu is excellent, book in advance as the restaurant gets busy with locals, and you can see why. We had some poor dinner... More
