A Luxury Stay in Name Only - Cold, Uncomfortable & Poorly Managed.
This place could have been incredible. The building is unique, the concept is bold, and it genuinely has the potential to be something special. But our stay at Bodmin Jail Hotel was anything but luxurious.
We were initially given one of the more characterful rooms, and it looked promising. But that’s where the positives end.
No Sleep. No Heating. No Urgency. Within hours of settling in, the problems started. The mattress was uneven with a broken spring, and the heating in the room simply did not work. We didn’t “sleep badly.” We didn’t sleep at all. Two nights in a row we were waking up every hour, freezing cold, sore, and genuinely feeling like we’d done ten rounds in a boxing ring by morning.
If you have back or hip issues.. Avoid.
Reception tried, but there was maintenance on site. At a so-called luxury hotel.. We were told to wait. And then wait some more. Maintenance didn’t arrive the next day either. We ended up asking for three additional king duvets just to stay warm and even used one to cover the broken spring so we could lie down without pain. We spent two hours of our evening just trying to figure out how to manage the room situation.
We were offered one alternative dog-friendly room - functional heating - but completely clinical. Bright white, box-like, stripped of any of the stone or cell character that makes this hotel unique.
