If Britannia hotels ran this it would still be prison cells!

They REALLY missed an opportunity by not naming the restaurant "The Last Meal."

£130?! I've paid a lot more for a lot less!

This is how you do a refit. It looks beautiful but still has all the elements of the original building either featured or as a novelty talking point. The architects and designers who worked on this should be applauded. I would love to stay here but I get the feeling just from the video that it is 100% haunted. I’d definitely need a sleep buddy, too!

In my humble opinion this is easily the best and most interesting hotel you have ever visted on the channel, and I think the price you paid of £130.00 a night including breakfast was very reasonable given the high quality and general ambiance of the place. I live up in Nottingham but am definately going to make the effort to have a couple of nights here at some point. Maybe all the staff should dress up as 'screws' to add even more to the theme....Just kidding, but being serious, this hotel looks fantastic!

Who ever rehabbed that prison is brilliant, it’s beautiful.
That baby is ridiculously cute.

Stunning. The designers and tradesmen have done an amazing job. The attention to detail that other places miss, like the spot on lighting to create the atmosphere.

I visited Bodium Jail a couple years ago. Really interesting place.

Top quality video as always. Like seriously, your production values are so good. You make everything look so easy, which is a sign of a well put together video. Makes you focus on the content.

My wife and I stayed at Bodmin jail in September 2022. And, strangely enough, we stayed in room 208 - SPOOKY! 😂
I honestly can't say enough good things about the jail and the staff. It was amazing! The room, the food, the ambience of the place was amazing. In fact, it was so good, we're going back this year! And the cocktails were stunning and the guys mixing them were hilarious!

They should take a mugshot when you check in

I find this is one of your best episode. The rooms merged history and contemporary in one design. It was spooky and historical at the same time. Cant wait to see more like this!

I love this hotel room, Tim makes so many worst hotels videos this feels like a massive reward. This is still so enjoyable to watch.

I imagine that's what every Daily Mail reader thinks a normal prison is like 🤣

[jacquelinesherlock]

I visited Alcatraz in San Francisco many years ago when they were in the early days of preparing it for the public to visit. During the tour we were taken to a solitary confinement cell which felt very authentic because it was dirty and stank. They asked for volunteers to go in and have the door locked, so of course my boyfriend and I volunteered. We were locked in there for three minutes. The heavy door was a foot thick and there were no windows, pitch black for three minutes felt like a lifetime!

That's the nicest hotel I've seen you review so far ! Clean, stylish and understated. I also think £130 with brekky is a really good price. Thanks for sharing 👍

[barrywood]

Everything about this hotel looks good. Comfy bed, great lighting, and so much attention to detail about the whole place. And you even had a proper, large mushroom for breakfast instead of the rubbery button version.

[janicester]

They did great with transforming this into a Hotel...very classy. I watched your other prison hotel video before this one and I agree with you...this hotel is better. The bathroom sold me! 😍😍😍

[suzyq]

The designers did a really good job with the subtle lighting.

[rossdivinagracia]

I don’t think i can sleep in there, despite how beautiful it is now.Thank u.

[bridgetteparker]

Thanks for a really interesting video. It’s nice to see an old building being used rather than being left to rot. Casper is sooo cute, bless him. Thanks Tim and Gaby😊

[NYKIRA]

The first thing that came to my mind was 'wouldn't this be a haunted hotel' & then you said the thing about your audio being cut 8 times... The hotel does look lovely, I'd definitely go for the experience!

I googled, built in 1779 and closed as a prison in 1927. The room price sounds really good value
