My partner and i have just come back for a one night's stay at Washingborough hall. The building and grounds are very grand but the decor quite disappointing, we stayed in a standard double and it was very 80's- chinzy decor and liminate flooring in the bathroom, and tired furnishings. The redeming factor about this hotels is it's food- probably the best meal i have ever eaten, it was truely delicious, worthy of a michelin star. Check your bill throughly also; they tried to charge us for £50 worth of drinks that werent ours. I would probably recommend Branston Hall more than this, better value for money in my opinion.

We booked this hotel at the last minute after being badly let down by a large chain hotel. We were a large family group needing 5 bedrooms and a dining room to celebrate my mum's birthday.

They were helpful from the initial phone call and I was impressed to note after arrival that they had a sheet of notes about us to make sure all went well.

I saw all 5 rooms ranging from a basic double to a four poster, and all were tastefully decorated, clean and very quiet. I didn't hear a thing both nights we spent there.

Food was excellent. Breakfast a little slow but very pleasant , helpful staff. Both evening meals were beautiful, good menu, well cooked and presented. They were happy to cook for kids and a fussy sister!

We enjoyed the sitting room and bar, yes the bar is a little basic, but it isn't a pub and is quite adequate for most people.

The hotel is in a quiet position in the centre of a large village, only a few minutes drive from the centre of Lincoln. We all agreed it was far better to stay at the Washingborough Hall Hotel than a hotel in Lincoln itself, due to the ease of parking and peace and quiet.

Would definitely recommend this hotel.

What a shame, this hotel, doesn't make its grade very clear, when I arrived on a quiet Sunday evening, it became apparent this hotel, prefers to cater for conferences and wedding market, and not the couple seeking a few days of r&r

Shown to room that was in desperate need of upgrading, but was given a room change when I requested it.

All staff will ask you if you want a reservation for dinner, but be ware very over priced, you will find plenty of eating places at sensible prices in Lincoln. Breakfast was excellent, but annoying things such a small coffee pots, then trying to catch the eye of staff for a refill.

This hotel is basic, it doesn't go the extra mile, eg no remote control for TV, basic furnishings to name just a few, would I stay again? NO!

Stayed here for a birthday celebration. Loved every minute of it. The hotel was full of character and charm. All of the staff that I came into contact with were friendly and really helpful, doing everything they could to make sure our stay was enjoyable. The food was exquisite, I had a vegetarian option made with Goats cheese and it was beautiful. Full and varied breakfast, will set you up for the day. We stayed in a family room, which was spotlessly clean and very appealling. The dressing gowns and slippers gave it that extra touch. Nice complimentary refreshments also available in room as well as toiletries. Would stay in this hotel again and recommend it to anyone.
