10/10 Exceptional

Great location and unique hotel
Darren, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

An unusual and well appointed suite. Lots of stairs so be prepared to climb. Minor issues were speedily remedied. A bit pricey, but mostly worth the cost for location and quirky quaintness of building.
Andrea, 4-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Nice room, clean, warm, spacious. It would have been nice for bottled water to be complimentary. The room was expensive and having to pay for water from the fridge was a little excessive.
Andrew, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Really nice hotel and the staff are fantastic, great location.
Mark, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Friendly, comfortable and central.

Really lovely hotel, bang in the middle of Oxford. Very friendly staff, comfortable rooms and interesting building. It is an old prison so the layout can be unusual but it's a very interesting building. Our room had (very good) air conditioning which was handy, I don't think every room has it.
Peter, 3-night trip

Amazing, so much better than when I stayed before.

Enjoyable stay.

10/10 Exceptional

Great location, property. Staff friendly and helpful. Could do with openable windows in rooms
Sundeep, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

The concept is interesting but can’t excuse neglecting updates. For the cost I was surprised by the cheap fixtures and industrial carpeting. Mildew in the shower and dirty room service dishes left in the halls. Definitely not worth the price.
Andrea, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

The cell rooms do not have a window that opens , there is no AC. The rooms are hot and stuffy, glad to be home . A basic fan was provided, reception said the issue was being addressed. Although similar reviews go back a long time.

Vibhu, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

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.
David, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Stylish and original

Great hotel, original and stylish.
zoe, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Nice and interesting hotel at a competitive cost - friendly staff - room was clean and smart but a bit warm and fan/air con didn’t work - breakfast display was good but not special (didn’t have any cooked options though so can’t comment on those) - I would go back but as I say, it didn’t feel as special as it could have done
