A luxurious and beautifully styled hotel. The historic architecture and exceptional facilities made for a truly unique experience. A wonderful romantic getaway, would definitely recommend!

We were disappointed when we arrived at the pool and found out that public access times were only from 5:30am-7:30am and that pool access otherwise needed to be booked in advance. We were not informed of this at any stage, including in the pre-stay call from the hotel, when we were checked in by our host, or in our printed itinerary. There is also no mention of this on Booking.com or on the hotel website. We were also unimpressed that we had to wait 25+ mins before being checked-in at the reception desk (we arrived at 3pm).

From booking to check out, nothing could be faulted. Absolute perfection!! I stayed here for a special occasion recently and the entire experience was above and beyond. The building itself with its history and restoration makes the stay so incredibly unique but the incredible staff that ensure the 'extras' are delivered seamlessly and effortlessly make the experience feel personalised with a feeling of appreciation for staying there. Emma is the MOST incredible concierge/experience creator I've ever encountered and her professionalism and attention to detail needs to be acknowledged. Thank you so, so much!

The bed was a little small for two tall people who like to take up space but honestly, it just gave perspective to the fact we were sleeping in a room that was previously a jail cell!!

The developer has done a great job modifying the property to be a hotel while keeping any aspects of the original building intact. It was such a great experience to see the space and hear the history while there.

The hotel is marketed as a luxe hotel with a hefty price tag. Although I understand the cost from an experience perspective, the finer details I would expect for a luxe hotel were missing. For example, bed was not very comfortable, pillows were soft, the water from the shower ran outside the door and on to the carpet.

The Interlude staff were so lovely! From welcoming us while checking in, to the Olivine staff. Thank you for making it a perfect stay! The rooms were spacious yet cosy, very luxurious which was great! The heated pool was amazing for an early morning swim and the drinks at Olivine were superb!

Room service would have been lovely if it was included and I wish the tour of the prison was included as it was a bit confusing to realise we had to externally book a tour however the most minor thing.

The design and fixtures were dark and opulent. The stone was beautiful and the wine bar and restaurant were excellent. The bed was comfortable and the size of the room surprisingly generous. The overall use of space was remarkable. The late checkout was amazing as we had a 7pm flight and there was not a lot to do outside of the property.

Everything was great. Clean and well maintained beautiful design.

Everything was perfect. The room is beautifully designed and feels luxurious, set in the historic prison building. The pool experience was warm and relaxing. Dinner at the wine bar was fantastic - the food was top quality and cooked perfectly. We had a little booth in one of the rooms which was cozy and private, but also felt really comfortable and warm and relaxing. All of the staff were lovely and helpful. We had a beautiful time here!

Beautiful restoration of the prison to make a beautiful boutique style hotel. It was a lovely stay with a difference in the element of not so distant history behind it.

The pool was cold. Please increase the temperature of the pool a little more. Providing some bathrobes to use to get to and from the pool would be nice. Also, an offering of better pillows would be a good idea.

Incredible stay. Absolutely loved the way the hotel has been incorporated into the historic building, very well done and makes the experience totally unique. Lovely staff who are proud of what they do and the place they represent. One of the most memorable stays I've ever had, will stay with us for ever. Luxury and class right here in the exact building where there was none!

Loved the uniqueness and the personalised touches- check in, welcome drink, room, everything! The private pool access was divine! And the personalised itinerary for our stay

The sleeping area was very hot overnight if you pulled the curtain closed. And no opportunity to have breakfast at the property unless you purchased it with the room.
