Disappointing

The hotel lacked the luxury I was expecting. It looks impressive as you drive up but behind the doors, the furniture is worn, chipped and our suite even had cigarette burns and stains in the leather. I queried if we were actually in the suite, and we were told we were but no questions or concerns were asked. The reception doesn't provide seating so you are left standing as you check in with all your bags which was a bad start to what I thought was a luxury hotel. The bar was equally as tired and inevitably the lack of standard made us cancel breakfast at the hotel. We also cancelled our Malmaison trip booked for birmingham later in the year. It was expensive and although I understand it is perfectly located for walking around Oxford, so was the premier inn. I booked this hotel for a luxurious, quirky stay in Oxford but was let down. The theme was lost, the standard was low.

Quirky. Fun. We had a standard cell room in the converted old prison. Comfortable and had everything we needed. Only negatives were that parking is very limited at the hotel ( the Westgate 24 hour car park is only a 5-10 minute walk away though), the paintwork was grubby in certain areas and that it took a long time to get the temperature of the shower right. Perfect central location for going to the theatre, visiting the university colleges, the shops and the many restaurants and bars. We enjoyed our stay.

Marmite hotel

This was booked by a colleague. It was an interesting experience but not sure how I felt about sleeping in a room previously occupied by convicted criminals… Some would find it fascinating but others might be quite disturbed by the thought

A very unique and historically interesting building. Parking outside the hotel was valet service and very safe and secure although navigating Oxford was tricky. Only negative was that Oxford as a city was not very dog friendly. The hotel however was very welcoming
