Hotel Review: Malmaison Oxford

After my horrible experience to book this hotel...

It's been a while I have stayed in a Malmaison hotel. Oxford was a quick destination of choice for going away from London during the weekend. Malmaison again didn't fail me with the quality of their bedrooms, lounge, restaurant and originality. Even though I have struggled to make an online booking on their website, I have managed to get a god deal with a double room from the centre of the converted prison priced at £109 per night and also a twin spacious room priced at £139. Rooms are very well decorated with good taste and they kept some features from the old  prison like the door of the room. You could spot that our room was in fact 3 cells in the past. The shower room with powerful shower was very nice coming up with fantastic amenities. Also each room is with a lcd screen and a dvd player playing divx (if you bored with tv channels). The restaurant is typical of other restaurants I have tried from the Malmaison brand. A mix of French / Italian / English food with good quality ingredients. I was a bit disappointed by the breakfast buffet. I didn't found it exceptional and was lacking of croissants and pains au chocolat. £15 for a breakfast, you expect a lot usually.  Finally don't forget to pay a visit to the "Visitors Room" in the evening. The room is gigantic all painted in black from top to bottom.

Definitely a hotel to recommend for your next Oxford weekend breakaway with friends or with your partner.
