Unusual but well executed prison conversion. I hope this is the closest I get to staying in a cell overnight! The room we stayed in was spacious … actually 3 cells knocked together. Reception staff were excellent. Hotel location was very convenient… short walk to city centre.

Great location. We stayed in the Houses of Correction which are a bit tired and our room could do with a deep clean and repair work (broken floor tile in the bathroom). The bar was nice, great ambiance. Prices were very high for what you get. Staff were very helpful.

The building is unique and full of character, and the staff were generally helpful and courteous. While a few elements could be refined for a smoother guest experience, the stay was comfortable and enjoyable, and the hotel’s distinctive setting makes it a memorable place to visit.

A very welcoming feel to this hotel, the staff were helpful and approachable. The room was clean but a few things missing from our particular room for it to be great. EG no area with a mirror in the room to get ready. Seems like it is just this room though and the team took the feedback. The food was really nice and the drink choices at the bar were great. Would recommend.

We enjoyed our stay—the hotel is in a great location and abounding in charm and unique character. The only downside was our heat would cut off after a few hours, so we would awake to a 17deg Celsius room. Other than that, we loved our time at MalMaison.
