Not the fault of the people who work there, but I found staying in a former prison to be deeply unpleasant, particularly one where they still have numerous iron bars, gates etc.

Was a cool nice building. Unfortunately seems a little dated in the rooms, and not completely clean, plenty of dust and dirty glasses wouldn’t expect that from a ~£200 per night hotel.

Unique setting, uncomfortable bed

We were drawn to this hotel because of the obviously very cool and unique setting. The rooms were spacious enough for the price we paid, the bath was a great addition and the shower had good water pressure. Unfortunately we found the bed to be very firm and uncomfortable. My fiance and I both struggled to get to sleep, and woke up with aches and pains. Considering the price point of the room for one night, it was one of the most uncomfortable hotel beds we've experienced. Also even though it was a king size mattress, the mattress actually goes underneath the headboard a way, so if you're tall you may find the bed to be too short. We did mention at checkout how uncomfortable we found the bed and were told that they'd pass the information on, but of course we've no idea if it'll be actioned.

Jailtime in Oxford

A great one night stay. We were given a free upgrade. Room and bathroom very nice. Upgraded room wasn't in 'the prison' though so lacked the charm of the older part of the hotel. Staff very pleasant. A bit of an issue with breakfast: everyone's food took a long time to arrive. Restaurant manager refunded everyone's breakfast bill without having to be asked.

The hotel is centrally located to the main areas of the city centre and most places of interest are within walking distance. Staff are attentive and pleasant. Hotel is quirky in the fact it is a former prison but the rooms are spacious and clean.

Interesting hotel.

Interesting hotel history and setting. Not sure it is worth a premium over other hotels. Room was nothing special for the cost. Lack of mini bar, everything including movies (£6.99!) extra
