Very friendly helpful staff, excellent location and lovely views of the Cathedral. Our room was clean and bed was comfortable but a view general maintenance jobs made it look a little tired. Edge of windowsill had fallen off and the surface of the bath had seen better days. Coupled with worn furniture and a balcony which needed a good clean lowered the quality of what could have been a five Star stay.

I was a bit worried about staying here having read some 'iffy' reviews, but I needn't of. For being a 3 star hotel I thought it was great. Location was perfect, breakfast was good, lovely choice of food. Our room was good and overlooked the cathedral. The bed was very hard so we asked for a mattress topper which they put on for us. It didn't make difference and we still had 3 nights of not sleeping through the night and waking up in pain!! Could also have done with a hairdryer on the room, but requested one and it came really quickly. The lady on reception who checked us in was fabulous and no complaints with any other member of staff. All in all it was a great stay and we would definitely stay again.

The staff at the hotel are wonderful and are always welcome to great you. The breakfast is lovely and plenty of choice. The evening meal I had with them was okay, starter and sweet were fine, main course was a little bit dry and I told them about a so they refunded me on that item. Ithink they have only one kitchen catering to all and they were also catering to a large wedding party that night, No problem,I got my bill adjusted accordingly. Lovely hotel with wonderful views of the Cathedral, just needs an update on the rooms to bring them to pine furniture and tubular steel furniture, painting around winerssill and a clean windows policy from a good external window cleaners and you are ready to go into inviting long term guests 3 or 4 days stay who would love to look around Lincoln and all its historical background.

Thoroughly enjoyed our couple of days. Location brilliant - with added bonus of very reasonably priced car parking. Staff very helpful and polite. Good breakfast and we also enjoyed dinner at the hotel - which again was reasonably priced along with good bar prices. My only reason for marking it down was the rooms are a little ‘tired’ - especially the bathroom but maybe I’m just nit picking. It didn’t spoil our stay and would recommend.
