We had a fabulous stay at Malmaison. The staff and service was really good and the decor and ambiance of the place is perfect . The authenticity and decor is fantastic and its location is perfect. We loved the little museum show cell , which showed how the cells were originally. A nice little touch. We also ate in the restaurant and the food was delicious. .

Great accommodation. Very interesting & feels very unique. Standard of refurb is very high. We stayed in the house of corrections. Very comfy, warm & quiet. Great staff, very friendly & alway there to help. We arrived earlier than our check in time & we were allowed in check in early which was great! Walking distance to Oxford centre, with lots of shop & lively pubs/restaurants.

We were able to check in early, which was very appreciated! Initially we were given a room that smelled bad, but when I spoke to the front desk they immediately offered to move us to another room. Very happy with the attentiveness of the staff and the quality and comfort of the room. Location is perfectly situated in Oxford.

The hotel was lovely and clean, the first room had noisy cold air blowing out, cold room, but hotel were very quick to move us into a bigger much warmer room,, Barman bit rude almost telling us we couldn’t eat as busy,, however very lovely waitress got us a table,, half way through starter mains arrived couldn’t eat soup, mac lobster was awful, pasta had the guts boiled out of it hardly any cheese sauce lobster bisque poured over the top was very brown, not presented very well, partners steak over cooked, chips were great,, they gave us discount,, now breakfast was beautiful so delicious well cooked lots of choice of drinks juice coffees teas cakes and hot menu was fantastic,,

Great stay, in a non-cell room. The location of the hotel couldn’t be better. Close to the sites as well as the bus terminal. The only minor issue was with a sink and shower that wouldn’t drain properly. (They tried unsuccessfully to fix.) I would have to mention though, the cost of the continental breakfast was outrageous, at 22£ each.

Great how they have converted rooms and used decor in rooms relating to prison theme. Disappointed in the bar relaxing area: only options were to sit at the bar or in a small room with upright tables and chairs. No settees to relax with a drink.

it's a great place to stay and is close to everything! only problem was that I didn't find out until I checked in that I was in the annex. I wanted to be in the actual prison. Luckily they were able to upgrade me to a prison room without a problem but please be aware when you book.

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.

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.

We spent a night in a cell room in the A wing and really enjoyed the unique decor and interesting building, the ambiance in the bar and restaurant, location of the hotel and the complimentary glass of Prosecco on arrival. Minor cons but they didn’t spoil our stay: Shower temperature control was very temperamental, there was an unpleasant drain smell coming from the sink in the morning, and the potato croquettes at breakfast weren’t great. A warning to fellow tall people: The bed head design resulted in our feet hanging over the end of the bed, which was a bit perplexing in a king size bed until we realised why! The bus for the Oxford park and ride stops just 2 minutes from the hotel, which is convenient if you’d rather use the park and ride than the valet parking at the hotel.

Had a good stay at the Malmaison in Oxford. Good location in city centre (10 min walk from train station, 5 min walk from Westgate shopping centre). The breakfast and bar was nice, though service was a little slow. I think more staff would be beneficial, especially on weekends. I stayed in the House of Corrections section. The rooms were nice, but it wouldn't be great for someone with accessibility issues as there's no lift and it's separate from the main building (have to go outside to access it and go down some stairs). Bear this in mind if you have luggage. It can also be noisy outside as there's an outside area for dinner and drinks plus bins going out etc. Overall, it was a great stay and it was cool seeing a former prison reformed into a hotel. I'd like to stay here again, but I'd stay in the main part of the hotel instead (A-Wing).
