We enjoyed our stay very much. The hotel was very convenient for walking into Lincoln and shopping, with many and varied pubs, bars and restaurants within a short distance, but driving was a different matter. Luckily we managed to find a space in the Hotel car park every night - it seemed to fill up quite early - and didn't need to pay the extra to use the NCP down the street, so that was good! On the other hand, and this is no reflection on the Hotel, we seemed to find ourselves stuck in traffic, stuck in one-way systems, stuck on the opposite side of the city every time we tried to leave or return to our base. Lincoln isn't for driving in!
