My fiance took me to this hotel for a romantic night away. We were checked in very efficiently even though there was a small wedding on. We then went up to our room which was bigger then expected. Lovely big bed, gorgeous bathroom & bbest view in a hotel ever. We went down to the bar after strolling around the old part of towm & had some lovely wine. Dinner was gorgeous. all 3 course where top notch food. The staff were all really helpful & I would stay at this hotel again.
Breakfast again was good, I only had toast & tea, but my fiance had the works and couldn't fault it.

We initially chose The Lincoln as we thought their rates were extremely reasonable; it was our friends wedding and we thought we would make a weekend of it. The building is very 60's and does look a little bizarre when you first arrive but the interior is very 21st century and was a pleasant surprise for this 'post house look a like building'. The rooms are comfortable, light and airy and the interior was up to standard , you do get your moneys worth. The food and staff were remarkable and turned our stay into a joyous occasion. Next time we are up in Lincoln we will most definitely dine at The Lincoln even if we do not stay there as the food and staff are worth the visit.

Located in probably the most interesting part of Lincoln, this sixties style hotel has commanding views of the cathedral, and is just minutes from the heart of historic Lincoln.

If the weather permits, you can take tea or something stronger in the hotel garden. In inclement weather, then the hotel lounge is spacious and comfortable. Similarly, the rooms are clean and spacious.

However do not look to closely. The views to the back of the hotel are a depressing conglomeration of poorly repaired masonry and shabbiness. Unfortunately, this is the same for the rooms and the rest of the hotel. Its location, space and cleanliness is spoiled by worn out furniture, mildew on the steel window frames and tired and dull furniture.

On the positive side, the staff are friendly, efficient and charming. Combine this with a superb location in a beautiful city and the ‘sad’ rooms can be forgiven.

I booked this hotel over the internet after looking at the hotels owv website. There were no external photographs on the website only pictures of the Lincoln Cathedral and upon arrival we could understand why!! The outside of the hotel looked like a prefab 60's building. Then when we got inside the hotel it seemed to a bit better as they say you shouldn't judge a book by its cover. However the reception area looked a bit nicer but its a shame the receptionist's face and attitude didn't refelect this I don't think there was one smile or please or thank you during our transaction so we we made our way upto our room and things went from bad to worse!! The room was tiny and the items in it looked like something from the 60's, the bathroom was also tiny and the bath that looked like it should've been white once upon a time was actually a pale shade of brown. I've never stayed in a worse hotel in my life and believe me I've been to some places! I wouldn't have let my dog bathe in that bath and I would definitely not recomend this hotel to anyone!
