Subtle, comfortable luxury in a compelling and dynamic location

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.

A very very special hotel experience

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!

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.

Strongly recommend for lovers of history and those wanting to experience something different on their special day

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
