- Qué tiene: Former prison · Oxford Castle · Brasserie and bar

A hotel inside the former Oxford Castle prison: joined cells turned into rooms, a brasserie and a bar, ten minutes from the station.

The house
Malmaison occupies the former Oxford Castle prison, on New Road, between the station and the centre. The iron galleries and the cell doors are still there: the rooms in the prison wing are made by joining several cells together, and there are suites in other buildings on the site. Downstairs, a brasserie and a cocktail bar.
Who it's for
For anyone who wants a different night in Oxford, as a couple or with teenagers who think the idea of sleeping in a prison is great. It is five minutes from the Ashmolean and ten from Christ Church and the train station, so it works perfectly well without a car.
Practical details
Wi-Fi is free. The cell rooms have small windows, which is part of the fun; if that feels claustrophobic, ask for one of the suites.
