The hotel is dated and needs updating. The rom was overly hot and there is no aircon. The lift does not access all bedrooms, only the delux ones. Staff were helpful and friendly but it didn’t make up for the overall experience I’m afraid.

There were shops nearby, the Cathedral was just over the road and there was a bus stop right outside the hotel, so we were able to do quite a lot by bus. We weren't keen on the dinner menu, but the breakfast was very good. The staff were all very pleasant and helpful. The room was ok, but, as with most hotels, there was only one chair so we had to take it in turns to sit comfortably and watch the TV in the evenings.

It's a great hotel, though is starting to show it's age. Which is a shame, it's the best location in Lincoln and the hotel is cool and quircky in a 60's way. Unfortunately it's lacking in some mod cons, no aircon im the room we stayed in. But otherwise all is good. Great staff, sometimes it was difficult finding someone on duty.

We have stayed a few times at this hotel over a 30-year period. We found the price of evening meals and wine prices too expensive so we ate out, however, the breakfast was really good. Take your own shower gel as only 1 tiny bottle in bathroom. Bed and pillows very comfortable.

Needs a lot of updating and refurbishment. We requested a room change as the one they gave us was awful. Bathroom mouldy, rusty, ill fitted and obviously had been flooded as stained floor and carpet into the room. Small bed was collapsing!! Very hot and musty. 2nd room was better - but still poor for what we paid.

Unfortunately, the whole reception area and stairwell had a very unappealing smell, noticeable immediately on arrival. However, staff were kind and courteous. Parking was charged additionally which I hadn’t been previously informed of and car had to be moved before 11am. Room was quite basic, needs updating, especially bathroom. Mattress comfortable and towels were pretty soft. Dangerously low balcony banister without additional safety rails. Breakfast good with lovely view of the cathedral, good variety of breakfast choices but disappointing coffee. Mixed review, didn’t feel overly exited about the stay itself for the price sadly, but conveniently located for our needs.

Check in process & friendliness of staff at check in was great. Didn't feel comfortable using the lift - was waiting for Frankenstein to make an appearance! Room desperate for an upgrade and a good clean, cobwebs, built up grim in corners of table/worktops, whole room felt grubby. Bathroom was the same in need of a refurb. Stayed for our daughters graduation & it put a bit of a dampner on the day, daughter had one of the larger rooms and it was the same, only bonus was she had a good view of the cathedral. Neither rooms were cheap, I'd say extremely over priced for what we got. On a plus the breakfast was good.

Hotel is in a good location. A bit dated and needs some TLC. It was clean and the staff were friendly. However, the breakfast was not so good and waste of money. All self service. No offer of cooked egg selection e.g. poached and no smoked salmon as advertised on the menu. Didn’t like the push pots for tea and coffee. Once seated not a single member of staff spoke to us.

The hotel was a little tired. it was in an excellent position and has a lot going for it and it could be better. Staff generally good, service in restaurant could be better. drinks in restaurant after the meal were slow and had to find someone to serve customers. we would be happy to come again. .

Hotel is in a convenient central position in Lincoln, and benefits from excellent parking at £7.50/day (I think per day, but could be per stay). Buffet breakfast was the highlight, well cooked, plenty of choice and with additional options of items like eggs Benedict cooked to order if wanted. Staff were helpful and pleasant. Downside for us was the heat of the bedroom - unfortunately we were there on a very hot weekend - the room was sweltering with no fan or aircon, leading to a very poor night’s sleep. Corridors to the rooms really need a refurb and had a strange smell. Otherwise a good stay - beds were comfortable with good quality linen (though pillows hard, as they so often are in hotels) and bathroom was clean.

Great location, near cathedral and castle etc. Totally suited our requirements. Having two reception areas is confusing. Seemed odd having to pay for hotel car parking. Throw away body wash rather than refillables suggests that sustainability is not a consideration.
