Stephen, Apr 2025
Pros (+) Amazing luxury restoration of ancient prison, great breakfast, and comfortable cells, but no slippers or body lotion
Cons (-) The restaurant needs to become more imaginative and first class to encourage return visits. Prison walls are a tad depressing without an exceptional gastronomic experience.
