FAQs about hotels in Lincoln
The Glory of Medieval England
Lincoln was a powerhouse of medieval England and retains amazing monuments from that period. In the Uphill district is the castle built for William the Conqueror. Inside its an original copy of the Magna Carta and its ramparts offer fabulous city views. Across the cobbled square which houses the large Christmas market is huge Lincoln Cathedral whose unusual façade features 2 tall towers, while another at its centre overlooks the Bishop’s Palace.
Connecting the cathedral quarter with the Downhill district is aptly named Steep Hill, a narrow street lined with unique shops and historic buildings including the Jew’s House. Even older are the Roman Newport Arch, Mint Wall and the well on Bailgate.
This road slopes down to meet the River Witham at High Bridge, a stone-arched structure with a half-timbered building atop that is the oldest of its kind in England. Lincoln boat trips depart from the Brayford Pool just west.
Another monument is the 18th-century Ellis Mill, opposite the Museum of Lincolnshire Life. The Collection combines an archaeology museum and art gallery, while The Lawn has a conference centre and the Joseph Banks Conservatory, displaying artefacts he brought back from adventures with Captain Cook.
Booking.com’s Lincoln accommodation covers luxury waterfront hotels, guest houses by the university and cheap apartments near the train station.

Great venue for a weekend away - you can walk everywhere (...
Great venue for a weekend away - you can walk everywhere (steep slope up to the Castle andCathedral). The Cathedral is stunning and the Castle worth the trip on it's own. The £16 ticket seemed a lot, but it was well worth it. A guided tour outside, a walk with audio set around the castle walls, a visit to the old prison and, to cap it all, to see the Magna Carta (one of the four existing copies in existence). With the cafe on site we spent a very full morning seeing everything - allow 4 hours to do it justice.AlanUnited Kingdom - 10Scored 10

Lincoln is an underrated city - it has an amazing Cathedral and Castle, which are well worth a visit. Steep Hill is only for the fit, but worth it if you can. Lovely small shops and cafés line the route, so you can have a break if you wish. Also, you can visit free of charge art galleries like the Usher Gallery (Turner paintings). The people of Lincolnshire are very friendly and this is why I live here!

Good Things: Staff were very nice and helpful.
Good Things: Staff were very nice and helpful. Location was great, close to lots of places. Bad Things: No slippers in room even though I asked for them. Breakfast was not good, not enough food. Bathroom and toilet were too small The staff were really friendly, but there were some problems too. I asked for slippers but never got them. The breakfast did not have much choice. And the bathroom felt cramped because it was so tiny. The location was convenient at least, making it easy to walk around. Overall an okay stay, but could have been better if the issues with amenities were fixedErhan - 10Scored 10

Lincoln is a good place to visit with a lot of history to look around. The cathedral area is walkable from the newer centre albeit up Steep Hill which as it's name suggests is tiring but worth it. There is a bus that goes from the bottom end of the city to the cathedral area.DeanUnited Kingdom - 10Scored 10
Not too touristy.
Not too touristy. Must-sees are the castle and cathedral, and (if you can manage it) Steep Hill. Plenty of independent shops and restaurants, as well as all the chains on the flat part near the river. City walk (most weekends and free, with donations) really worth doing.

Staff all very helpful and friendly. Check in at 2 but able to park from 12. We arrived at 12:45 and we're able to get into our room then too. Lovely converted building with beautiful, comfortable rooms. Plenty of tea, coffee and milk provided as well as orange juice. Croissant, jam and yoghurt delivered to room in morning was a nice touch. Would definitely book again of returning to LincolnSallyUnited Kingdom

It's all lovely and full of character since the refurbishment. All the history and beauty of Lincoln comes alive here, and the staff being so friendly really makes it! Breakfast was perfect - a masterpiece of simplicity made truly exceptional by superb local ingredients. I have many hotel breakfasts in my life, but this is now my new point of reference. Thank you White Hart😊GentleUnited Kingdom
- 9.5Scored 9.5ExceptionalRated exceptional· 91 reviewsBeautiful period property, fabulous location and views over the Lincoln city and Cathedral and castle. Literally a couple of minutes stroll and you are in the historic part, and 10 minutes walk, you're in the more modern, lively areas. Can't recommend this property enough, works so well for exploring Lincoln, parked the car on the first day, and didn't use it again until we reluctantly left to come home.........MikeUnited Kingdom

The location is excellent for the vibrant Brayford Pool area. The rooms are generous and well appointed. Good parking on site is fuss free. The Bar & restaurant are pleasant. The staff are friendly and helpful; shoutout to Arina who looked after during breakfast, excellent service.
Mr.GeoffUnited Kingdom - From RSD 11,416.15 per night8.5Scored 8.5Very goodRated very good· 2,641 reviewsThe room was clean, well appointed, comfortable and warm. Needed to book in at the pub rather than the hotel on arrival. The pub next door was great for an evening meal, even though we hadn't pre booked. Staff friendly and helpful. Breakfast was not cheap, but was hearty. For a night away, on the outskirts of Lincoln you could do much worse, we would go again.JoanneUnited Kingdom
