Luxury Hotels in Oxford
If you want to make your visit to Oxford extra special, it is best to book some luxury accommodation. Oxford used to only have one luxury hotel to speak of, The Randolph, but things have imporved in recent years and Oxford now has plenty of luxurious hotels located in the heart of the city including the award winning prison hotel run by Mal Maison. Oxford's most popular luxury hotels start with the famousRandolph closely followed by the less central Raymond Blanc's Le Manoir Aux Quatre Saisons but a new favourite has recently arrived on Oxford's luxury hotel scene, in the form of Mal Maison, Oxford Castle. This is a strange nomination for one of the best hotels in Oxford because it was formerly a prison, but it has been transformed in to an award winning luxury hotel maintaining many of the original features - worth a visit even if you dont stay there! Our recommended best hotels are listed below based on local knowledge and feedback, we hope you agree!
Le Manoir Aux Quatre Saisons is the ultimate in decadence, offering the famous Raymond Blanc Michelin Starred restaurant and luxurious accomodation on the outskirts of Oxford. Le Manoir is set in an old Manor house in beautiful gardens, including a kitchen garden used to supply fresh fruit and vegetables to the kitchen.
Raymond Blanc also offers Le Manoir cookery school for French, Italian, Indian and other cuisines but it is advised to book this in advance. Raymond Blanc can often be seen at Le Manoir Quatre Saisons or his other establishment, the Petit Blanc in the centre of Oxford. Le Manoir is reputed to be the best restaurant and hotel in Oxford and the BBC featured Raymond Blanc at the hotel as part of his recent UK television series "The Restaurant".

Le Manoir, is well what can we say, very expensive, but reputedly well worth it if you feel like spoiling yourself or your other half! To quote the great man himself "Le Manoir aux Quat Saisons is the fulfilment of a personal vision, a dream that one day I would create a hotel and restaurant in harmony where my guests would find perfection in food, comfort, service and welcome."

The Oxford Malmaison hotel is a truly spectacular boutique hotel which has won many awards. What makes this hotel so special is that it has been converted from a prison, but has managed to keep many of the unusual original features. Guests reside in the former cells of the prison, although as they are quite small three have been joined to make a larger room and ensuite bathroom.
There is also a central open plan cast iron walk way spanning several floors that was originally used for parades. The old prison is also famed for its use in a classic British comedy television series called porridge which was based at the former prison.
If you are looking for truely unique boutique hotel in Oxford this is the one for you. As boutique hotels go you dont get much more unusual than this. The whole prison complex surrounding the Malmaison hotel was redeveloped in 2006 and now the hotel is a centre piece to a leisure area that includes a number of pizza restaurants, bars and shops as well as the Oxford Unlocked visitor attraction.
