The sleeping arrangements were difficult for two of us sharing a bed-we needed to be very limber to climb in and out, and for the person who gets in first to climb over the other in the dark!

Expensive but unusual, staying in a historic prison.

Stayed in March 2025

The only thing I didn't like was no fresh milk in the room and everything from the mini bar had to be ordered.

Loved the layout and feel of the rooms and building.

Stayed in February 2025

Some face washcloths in the room would have been pretty good. And patrons of the wine bar and restaurant can easily view you while swimming (I think I was filmed at one stage, which was not at all welcome).

Location is great, and the free bikes on offer are such a great idea! Wish I'd utilised this more, but there's always next time! The facilities on-site are impeccable - the pool even supplies towels, so that's one less thing to pack! And there's a supermarket within the Pentridge complex, which is insanely convenient.

Beds a little hard but that is personal preference. Also couldn’t seem to get the room aircon to cool down so was a bit warm in the night.

Beautifully designed, very unique experience. Pool is amazing and rooms are just awesome. Love how original parts of the prison have been incorporated into the new lux design

Needs more signage indicating where elevator is situated.

Quirky but exceptionally comfortable room

Stayed in February 2025

Skip the breakfast at the restaurant - they missed items & what they brought took forever. Walk 200m for multiple options that looked better.

The room was amazing! So special to relax in & notice all the wonderful design details. The service team was also wonderful. They made it feel special from checking in. Also, the mini bar is very reasonably priced ($22ish for a full sized bottle of wine). Dinner at the restaurant was very special too!

We did try to have a glass of wine at the bar however we found limited options for ordering by glass but if staying for something to eat, then selection for a bottle of wine was great.

The staff were amazing and very accommodating, always approachable and went out of their way to help. The room was very luxurious and exactly what was expected. The pool was easily accessible and convenient with towels, and shower facilities provided.

Absolutely amazing! We were able to stay in the original cells which were converted to hotel rooms. The blue stone was kept in place and overall the vibe was fantastic

The only thing we did not love was the wine bar stops service at 10:30pm. But the service and facility was exceptional.

Fantastic experience great feel.

Stayed in December 2024

Everything was great. Clean and well maintained beautiful design.

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.

I would go again without hesitation.

The restaurant food was flawless and delicious, if anything it took nearly 45minutes to arrive.

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.

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.
