In a great position overlooking Lincoln Castle, this is a friendly hotel but also stylish and efficient. I ate in the bar and the food was delicious and very reasonably priced. Breakfast was generous and varied. I hope to return.

From my room I could view the Lincoln Castle wall. The hotel is ideally located close to the Cathedral, Castle, restaurants and shopping. There is a very popular bar downstairs but I found the crowd to be mostly young professionals, so well behaved. Despite the popularity of the bar, there wasn't too much noise, even on the weekends. My room... More

Great staff, great location and great room (apart from the curtain that didn't fit in room 10). Also a wine bar and was full throughout the day until midnight. Breakfast very good and one of the best - picture below.

Stayed here on a Saturday night in May. Nice hotel with friendly staff. The room was generally ok apart from a couple of small faults; stains on the carpet and the bathroom was in need of a deep clean. However, it served our purpose as a base; we spent most of the weekend out and about exploring Lincoln. The breakfast... More

Stopped over the bank holiday weekend, great hotel room nice, clean and spacious. Staff friendly, arrived in Lincoln early before check in time and they allowed me to drop in my suitcase while I went shopping. Breakfast was good nice selection freshly cooked. Great location

I would love to give this hotel a four but there's just a couple of things that let it down. Though our superior room was very comfortable (if small) and very nicely appointed it was let down by a utilitarian bathroom that was in need of a makeover. The over-bath shower sprayed copious amounts of water onto the floor regardless... More

It's true that this is a night spot first; in fact the restaurant is excellent, really recommended (dining in Lincoln can be a problem, so this was a great find). There was definitely some noise from the bar, but luckily it's not a very late bar. apart from that the room was extremely comfortable. It had excellent amenities such as... More

This review only covers the restaurant. I am aware of the bar which is normally busy through out the day and night and can get very full at weekends. Age group mix would generally be between 30 and 45+. The restaurant is a small intimate room removed from the bar environment. On the two occasions I have visited the service... More

I stayed here about a year ago and really enjoyed it. This time was OK (2 nights) but not quite as good. The two nights we stayed were Friday and Saturday, with the bar packed and noisy, not rowdy, just very popular, but impossible to get a seat and have a quiet drink. Ordering from the bar menu was not... More

Stayed here for our first wedding anniversary and took our 8 month old son with us. On a positive the room was lovely well presented and was clean. The views were nice and location ideal. Overall though we were not overjoyed with the stay. The Tower only offered A La Carte that evening which was expensive and not at all... More
