Perfect location for a trip to Lincoln

We were delighted with our stay. Amazing location just off Steep Hill. Lovely welcome and the room was immaculate with everything we needed.

Above and beyond

They left the most beautiful suprise for our 10 year anniversary. The complimentary coffee, water, oj, biscuits and breakfast were a lovely touch. There was also dressing gowns, slippers and a eye mask and ear plugs on the bedside tables. The manager was lovely and explained how to enter the property and gates. Parking was free. View was amazing and windows were stunning. The TV was also a smart TV which made a nice suprise.

The water in the shower was cold or boiling. Wasn't able to change breakfast time as we decided to leave early as no staff to request on an evening for this.

Lovely short break in sympathetically restored unique building with pleasant staff

Quiet location. Spacious and well decorated room, close to all the historic sights and independent shops plus quality restaurants and pubs.

Liked everything, but separate cups for coffee and tea would be needed, and the mini fridge had to be accessed very low down as it was u see the desk on the floor, so would be difficult to access for someone with mobility issues.

Lovely accommodation in a great location

The location was great and the room was very comfortable

Not sure which areas of outside space we could use, this wasn’t made clear. It would be nice to have a levelled area on the grass with table

Very nice accommodation but breakfast could be better.

The hotel is well situated very close to the castle and cathedral The bonus is private secure parking. The staff that we met were very welcoming. The room was very nice with a good en suite.

My main issue is with breakfast. One croissant and a yoghurt is not really sufficient. As there is no kitchen perhaps this accommodation should be room only!! Eating the croissant in the room is also interesting as there is nowhere for two people to sit while eating. The second night of our 2 night stay the room was very warm. We had kept the small window open during the day and reopened it during the night but it was still to warm. Might be difficult to sleep in the height of summer. Be aware that whilst it is perfect for visiting the cathedral and castle the main town is down a very steep hill. Finally, not the hotels problem but we were shocked at how much it cost to get into both the cathedral and castle.

Central Lincoln location

A picturesque and appealing property, extremely clean and comfortable.

The parking situation is poor, Very difficult to access due to their narrow hilly roads but worse was the fact that we weren’t allowed access till midday and we have to go midday so we ended up paying for parking elsewhere overnight and it meant we had to drag our bags up the very steep hill twice! I wouldn’t stay there again purely for this reason. Property seems to have lots of parking space so I don’t understand why they are so tight when you can access or how long you can stay.

Enjoyed the stay but for future stays would book through Palace Lodge and not Booking.com

Location and service were very good. Initial room was unexpectedly small. Management changed that for second night which was very satisfactory. Parking was satisfactory and complimentary breakfast was satisfactory.

Good location, but couldn’t stay in that room again as it’s too hot and a bit claustrophobic.

We liked the quirkiness of it and it was clean and well placed to visit all the local attractions. We enjoyed the continental breakfast as well.

The room was very hot (32), if you opened the roof light, then it was very light early in the morning, therefore would have liked a blind or curtains on the inside, to shut the light out. There was a fan, but very noisy. Didn’t like the Down/feather pillows & would have liked some shower gel. Also in the car park, the sticky mess that comes off the trees is awful, made a right mess of our car.

My stay here was memorable.

The hotel is between the castle and the cathedral. There are plenty of shops, cafes and bars etc down Steep St, but be aware of the very steep walk back up the hill. The staff were absolutely amazing and made me feel very welcome.

Cosy, calm and characterful! Very much needed and very much enjoyed! loved this place! thank you 🤍

so characterful, cosy, clean, amazing location. so welcoming, left you to it once checked in. bed was so so comfortable, bed linen was incredibly soft. everything had been considered, everything of quality including the type of instant coffee, fresh milk, orange juice, water in the fridge. I mentioned it was my husbands birthday and when we got back from our walk about before dinner, there was a birthday card for him in the desk. a very thoughtful touch. thank you for the most wonderful stay. we’ll be back. in fact I wouldn’t book anywhere else ever! we had stayed in The Rest once (ironically called) up the road and it was anything but. this place was so quiet (can’t blame the hotel for noisy people upstairs stomping around a bit) but the walls are thick. just light sleepers, just need a pair of ear plugs. loved this place!

Bit warm but there was a huge fan we were able to switch on in the middle of the night.

I booked a short break for my partners birthday, she loved it so we’re all happy, highly recommended

It’s a lovely looking building in a fantastic location a short walk from the cathedral and the castle and the cultural quarter. Plus it was only a 10-15 min walk from the train station. The room was beautiful and well equipped with everything we needed. Everything was very clean and tidy. We only saw 2 members of staff and both ladies were nice and friendly

These are very minor complaints just nit picking really, The property is at the top of Steep Hill(it isn’t called that for nothing!) we managed it ok but I can imagine it could be tough for older people or anyone with restricted mobility. It would have been nice to open a window to get some air into the room there’s only one small window l, an electric fan was provided though which was needed when it hit a bit warm. I’ve only mentioned it because it was asked, there was no real view out of the window as it was obscured by a tee but just leave the room and the cathedral is right in your doorstep to look at anyway!

Lincoln stay

Loved the features like the big Windows! Very handy for the historical end of Lincoln 2 mins walk from castle and cathedral and some nice cafes and local shops and pubs

Larger dressing gowns needed! Also not a great spot if you have any mobility needs and the hill down to central Lincoln is very steep!

We loved this charterful friendly guest house

location is right next to the cathedral in the old town. It’s quirky, relaxed and really friendly. The room had really high beamed ceiling. Continental breakfast is included and brought to your room. Room had everything you need including a fridge with fresh milk, orange juice and water. Car parking is secure behind locked gates. We liked the personal touches. Very different to the bland corporate hotels.

We went for the cheapest room and so only had a tiny window that looked at a roof. Think we’ll upgrade to a posher room next time.

Superb

Excellent location . Slightly thrown by the minimal breakfast delivered to the room but pleasantly surprised that the croissants had been warmed and fruit juice in the fridge provided a good breakfast. Excellent security for parking. Would certainly recommend the place.

Brilliant location, friendly owners - very high quality, comfortable guesthouse with parking

Light breakfast of croissants & yoghurt hung on door handle with milk, orange juice and filtered water in a fridge in the room included (or choice of going to a local cafe which you paid for) was a great idea. Beds comfortable and shower large and powerful.

Nothing comes to mind! Hadn't realised that the staff weren't on site but were there to greet you. Not a problem to us as comfortable with the fobs and codes but would be confusing for people like my mum! Its such a nice property that you forget it is a guesthouse and not a hotel!
