Very friendly and accommodating staff. The hotel was spotlessly clean and the breakfast selection excellent. We did find our room too hot and there was a droning noise on and off all night which wasn’t related to the room itself. We mentioned it to the staff on check out and they immediately said they’d investigate. Excellent customer service throughout our stay.

Staying at Malmaison Oxford felt like doing time… The room was spacious, spotless, the bed was actually comfortable (shocking for a former prison), turning on the lights gives you that prison sound and the location is dangerously convenient for wandering Oxford. Add in the juicy history of the building and suddenly your overnight stay comes with a side of true crime vibes. Clean, central, and delightfully dramatic — 10/10 would get “locked up” again.

The hotel and its amenities were great - welcoming, good breakfast, interesting architecture. The suite I stayed in was not great, and I'd advise against booking a suite. It was split level, with the thermostat on the upper level. Due to how the heating worked, the upper level needed to be set at 25C to get the lower level to 19C and the bathroom remained much colder. The wrap around bedhead - the mattress end slotted into the bedhead - took 10-20cm from the bed length meaning my feet stuck out the end of the bed and I had to sleep diagonally. The mezzanine level - the 25C room - was fully occupied by a large conference table with four chairs, with no easy chair / armchair. Am sure the hotel has had this feedback before, and should just change the furniture, throw out the conference table and the wrap around bedhead, and sort out a better heating arrangement. Will not stay again. Quite possibly the more economical regular rooms do not have these problems

I realize that this was an old prison but be aware that the food is still prison quality. A club sandwich which was fantastic 5 years was a singed yes not even charred assembly of chicken and ham both also singed The smell of singed flesh was nauseating.

Really enjoyed our stay. Hotel staff were very friendly and welcoming. The room was beautiful and spotlessly clean. We stayed in a Clive double cell and it felt very spacious. Nice bathroom with a separate shower and tub. High quality linens and towels were thick and plush and generous sized. Good location, close to the station and walkable to everything. Breakfast is pricey but very nice. Service excellent
