Although the concept is great, ‘staying in an old prison’, the hotel it’s self is over priced for what you get.

We liked the prison but were sad we couldn’t get the upgrade we’d applied for; there were some cobwebs on the ceiling of our room; they need to improve their Night Bites - of the three hot options there was only one available, and it was awful (fortunately, when I wanted to pay for it on checking out, it wasn’t on the bill.) We liked the staff very much and we loved Oxford.

This was a wonderful place! We stayed 3 nights. We had booked into a cell room. The first night, because windows can't be opened, and no AC (listed building, so can't make those changes apparantly) my husband had some clostrophobic feelings overnight. I told reception, and they very kindly were able to change our room, which had AC and able to open balcony door. Food was excellent, we stayed on half board and would really recommend this option!

We booked it due to the history of the property, but got a little disappointed, despite the cool temperatures outside, the rooms were hot and have no AC. The design is dated, could be polished to make it a unique boutique hotel.

Sadly the room albeit an "upgrade" had a unit inside as there was no AC. The unit made a dreadful noise all night, so was turned off. The room then became unbearably hot.

Fab stay in this amazing prison conversion
My husband and I celebrated our first wedding anniversary with a night in a Club Cell Room here. The room was in the main part of the prison and had been beautifully converted from 3 of the former cells. We loved everything about the hotel from the setting, room, staff and food. One small negative was the fact that the air conditioning was dripping but it didn’t ruin our stay and we reported this on leaving so hopefully it will be fixed ready for future guests.

What a fantastic place to stay. Okay no A/C and windows don’t open but for the experience of staying in a prison cell , it was well worth it. Excellent facilities and friendly staff. Parking sounds expensive but all parking in Oxford is expensive and you are right in the town centre. Definitely return.

Beautiful location. Former “cell” room was unique but retained no hint of the original purpose of the room. An odd thing - no mirror close by an outlet for using a hair dryer. Having stayed on a weekend in July we paid top dollar which I would avoid at all costs were I to return. Better signage of the entrance is needed. We circled the block a couple of times and had to call for precise directions. Once on the property however we were warmly greeted at the door and directed to next steps. Breakfast was great. Dinner options also excellent.
