Couples overnight stay in Oxford to visit theatre

Very comfortable, quiet room in the 'House of corrections'. Excellent nights sleep in comfy bed. Great large shower. Good selection of drinks on the courtesy tray. Super stylsh, unique hotel, conveniently placed just 5-10 mins walk from Oxford train station and 5 minutes from nearest shops & restaurants. Quality of breakfast ingredients was very good, althugh I did receive baked beans despite saying I didn't want any, and the full English Breakfast was not very warm.

Amazing experience keeping luxury hotel feel

Loved our stay here. The converted prison was such an authentic experience without taking away from the luxury feel you want from a hotel stay. Nice comfy beds. Loved the prison yard which was the brassiere gardens a lovely sun trap for drinks.

Lovely place but bedrooms too warm

We had a lovely one night stay in this quirky hotel. Only downside was room was too warm. When I asked at the desk was told they can only cool so much because of age of building. Other guest areas cool just bedroom. Be helpful to warn guests and maybe supply a fan? Otherwise excellent stay. Breakfast delicious.

The hotel exceeded my expectations. They have done an excellent job of providing comfortable rooms while maintaining the character of the prison. The double cell room I had was a large room with a comfortable bed and with ample storage for a suitcase. The breakfast was excellent with the hot items cooked fresh to order.

Characterful Hotel in Perfect Sightseeing location

I stayed in room 116 and it was perfect for me. Very quiet, but spacious, in the "main body" of the hotel, close enough to reception and the restaurant. Some of the rooms are in offshoot extensions to the main building and just lack the same character. The downfall I would say to this hotel was the customer service and service at the bar. On both Friday and Saturday night it wasn't particularly busy, but generally there were only 1 or 2 people working on the bar at it's busiest time. The bar staff were very pleasant, but we were given a voucher for 3 cocktails (I verified this) on behalf of reception but the bar staff only allowed cheaper drinks, odd! They called reception but it was a change of staff since they provided the voucher. The voucher was given by the hotel as a friend had called up to get us drinks. 100% perfect location to explore the hotel.

4/10 Fair

Disappointing

The hotel lacked the luxury I was expecting. It looks impressive as you drive up but behind the doors, the furniture is worn, chipped and our suite even had cigarette burns and stains in the leather. I queried if we were actually in the suite, and we were told we were but no questions or concerns were asked. The reception doesn't provide seating so you are left standing as you check in with all your bags which was a bad start to what I thought was a luxury hotel. The bar was equally as tired and inevitably the lack of standard made us cancel breakfast at the hotel. We also cancelled our Malmaison trip booked for birmingham later in the year. It was expensive and although I understand it is perfectly located for walking around Oxford, so was the premier inn. I booked this hotel for a luxurious, quirky stay in Oxford but was let down. The theme was lost, the standard was low.
