The Lincoln Hotel was perfectly positioned for our 4 day break in Lincoln, directly opposite tge cathedral. Having an onsite car park was a also a key factor. We had a nice Sunday lunch in the hotel when we arrived on Sunday.

A fine if not tired hotel

The stay was comfortable but the decoration and state of the room and corridors was very tired, and one corridor had a horrible smell throughout our stay.

The breakfast room was delightful: light and airy, sunny and with a view of the cathedral. Food was excellent. Room was serviced well every day. Lift was rather scruffy and noisy. Reception staff very helpful and kind, but it was a shame that, when saying 'goodbye', one member of the team didn't look up. Also, suggest having an illuminated sign above the main entrance.

Hotel with parking and great view

Hotel in excellent position overlooking the Cathedral. Slightly dated and chilly in corridors. Breakfast service could be improved by having more coffee machines.
