My husband and I, as well as several friends, booked this hotel because we were all attending a wedding in a village a few miles from Lincoln. The room was modern, clean and comfortable, and the bar and breakfast room were nicely furnished. Breakfast was served in a small bright dining room with a huge window overlooking the Pool, and...

I stayed at this hotel in the end of May 2012. The room I had was a king size room, and had a very large bed, was large, and had modern interior. The bathroom was large and had a combined tub/shower. There were four pillows in the bed, and two of them are marked "firm" or "soft" so you can... More

Rooms are lovely, location is fabulous, one direction the river, other direction a stunning view of the cathedral. Several annoying incidents that could have been easily avoided spoilt my trip so unfortunately I won't go back. The staff werent impolite but certainly lacked something. When I checked in I wasn't told about breakfast arrangements. My key card stopped working on... More

I stayed here with my partner for a few nights in October. Really easy to find and good to have a car park. Location was perfect for us, along the waters edge close to lots of good restaurants and the cinema to. A nice walk up the Steep Hill and you are at the castle and cathedral. Our room was... More

Location is brilliant for getting into Lincoln by foot, right on the water front with lots of restaurants in close proximity. The room was very spacious, with all the usual ammenities, but we were on the ground floor so the views were limited. We rated the hotel experience as 4 blobs because: the heater (which looked new) in the room... More

We got married last Saturday and wanted a romantic weekend away to celebrate. Having read previous reviews we found the car park easily (drive down what appears to be a pedestrianised area). The friendly receptionist informed us that we had been upgraded to an Executive King room - this put big smiles on our faces. The room was large and... More

Recently returned from a 3 day Superbreak at the Lincoln Holiday Inn. We had a twin room on the front of the hotel with great views out across the water. Huge comfortable beds, decent bathroom -(water could have been set a bit hotter!), large flat screen TV and usual tea and coffee facilities. We ate breakfast in the hotel each... More

We stayed for a long weekend in this hotel over the Easter holidays. Huge room with a view of the wharf, giant bed and powerful shower. It was really well situated for the city centre and right next door to the hotel is a Wetherspoons (Lloyds), a Harvester and a Nando's and various other restaurants. The staff were brilliant and...

Stayed here for one night and enjoyed it. Didn't have breakfast, so can't comment on that. Bed was very comfy with lovely pillows (am fed up of hotels with rock hard pillows). The room was adequate and clean, bathroom also good. The area is very nice, it is a bit of a distance to the cathedral quarter, but I would... More

Not bad but not great. We spent three nights here and a mediocre experience it was. The location is good in that it's on the Wharf with restaurants nearby. It's also in easy walking distance of the High Street and main shops. However, it is a distance to the Cathedral and all uphill. The hotel is a little tired and... More

Dear Guest, Thank you for taking the time to post a review of the hotel. I am delighted to hear you enjoyed your visit to the historic town of Lincoln, as you mention the walk up Steep Hill is certainly not for the faint hearted! I was a little disappointed to hear the bedrooms did not meet with your satisfaction,... More
