Stayed three nights. First night booked via hotel. Second and third nights cheaper through Expedia…. Hotel would NOT price match as their website states!! Rooms AMAZING… but make sure you ask for a room with stone walls and ceilings to get the full cell vibe… our first room had mainly white painted walls and white ceilings… When I realised I asked to move rooms and eventually it was sorted. Reception staff friendly but need more training in customer service. The housekeeper was more helpful and professional… she was fab and should really be on the front desk or working as dining staff rather than cleaning rooms!!! Was a great experience, real unique and was fun staying in a prison and I would definitely recommend for couples and families alike!!

Hotel fantastic, atmosphere and location brilliant. Restaurant for dinner was unfortunately sub par for the cost. My wife's starter was not great, not hot enough and too pickly tasting. The apple crumble, was not an apple crumble, it was a sultana tart, and I dont really like sultanas! The breakfast however, amazing.
