Sometimes a hotel is so unique that it stops you in your tracks — and Bodmin Jail Hotel and Resort has certainly been the talk of the Travelzoo team this week. This 18th-century former Cornish prison is now a "sophisticated" (Forbes) hotel following a £60 million renovation, but you'll still see lots of original features.

Two-night stays including breakfast, a 3-course dinner, and tickets to the Bodmin Jail attraction are £369 for Travelzoo members, and save up to 41% on the regular price. It's £489 to stay for three nights.
