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.

Hit this place up for a late NYE gateway.
Great hotel,
great location,
great bar with various areas to sit and enjoy a cocktail!
Breakfast (hot) £26 PP was decent and did include a drink at the bar .
Room was clean and tidy and very cosy. Water, coffee and safe in the room.
All Staff were helpful and bar staff knowledgeable on drinks and cocktails.
Parking was steep (but it was valet parking and secure outside the hotel) so all good.
Only gripe I had was we were charged twice for breakfast but were refunded swiftly when we called and informed them
A well converted prison into a boutique hotel. Would visit again in the future

Malmaison is such a cool concept. We loved that we walked almost everywhere in Oxford. The room was comfortable in general but the bathroom shower is quite small and somewhat uncomfortable. The bathroom was large enough to hold a much larger shower. Even with this minor issue, we would stay here again.

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.
