We stayed just the 1 night in 2 rooms in this hotel which is in a most pleasant part of the city on top of the hill facing the castle walls and a 3 minute walk to the high street with its many bars and restaurants, 5 mins to the cathedral and maybe 15 mins to the ralway station. Both... more

We fancied a last minute break and decided on Lincoln, to visit the Cathedral and Castle. we stayed in the Castle court hotel, its a small hotel, only 18 or so bedrooms, but it was very warm, comfortable and clean. The staff were friendly and helpful, we arrived before 2pm, which is their earliest check in time, they kindly locked... more

We had a very enjoyable stay at The Castle Hotel in November. Our stay was for three nights to do Christmas shopping and visit Cathedral. The hotel in good position to visit all attractions of City. The hotel very clean, we stayed in a deluxe room with lovely view of Cathedral, beware of the bells on Sunday mornings! Great choice... more

Nice location and lovely view of the cathedral, but the room was smelly (possibly an ex -smoking room) and it was all a bit drab. Only five channels of TV. Everything worked and it was just about OK for a one night stay. Breakfast was quite nice - good bread and excellent sausage of course. more

We stayed for one night and found the hotel excellent, good beer and a first class breakfast. It is situated in the best part of the city amongst the castle and cathedral grounds with some excellent pubs nearby. The only criticism is that they give directions from everywhere on their website, well, everywhere by car that is! Not by foot... more

This was our second stay at The Castle Hotel. On this occasion I booked directly with the Hotel and paid slightly more for the second grade of room, identified as traditional. The price was still a little less than a nearby competitor which I know has very compact rooms which are designated as standard. The room was actually in the... more

Generally a really pleasant experience , great location and good value. Reception check in was easy and friendly. The room (deluxe double) was of average size , clean , bright and well lit. It had an excellent and modernised bathroom although the shower was pretty useless as it had a broken showerhead (do staff check these things nowadays?!) Although it... more

Just returned from overnight at this hotel. Had a very nice stay, great location in the cathedral quarter -so near to everything, nice welcome ,great breakfast, very clean. However the bed was really uncomfortable and shook and squeaked all night and every time my husband turned over I 'rolled down the hill'! Shame because otherwise a very homey comfortable place.... more

We stayed at this hotel for one night on 30.12.06. We had upgraded to the traditional room, which I believe is slightly larger than the standard rooms The room was lovely and quite spacious. However we were in what seemed like an attic conversion with sky light windows, so we had no view. On arriving the hotel seemed warm and... more

The Castle Hotel is ideally located to explore the historical part of Lincoln, being between the castle and the cathedral. All the rooms had either castle or cathedral views accordingly. We stayed in a standard double which was by no means enormous but was adequate and clean, as was the bathroom. The staff were helpful and the breakfast was second... more
