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.

    The historic centre of Lincoln is very picturesque.

    The historic centre of Lincoln is very picturesque. Lincoln Cathedral is the finest I have seen and we spent a long time exploring it. The castle with its Victorian prison is interesting too and the wall walk gives another view of the immediate area. There are lots of lovely independent shops including small craft and art galleries. The Usher Gallery in the cultural quarter has a good collection of art and is small enough not to be overwhelming. The choice of restaurants is good. We ate at Thailand No. 1, Cafe Zoot and, down in the main shopping area, Mowgli Street Food, all the the meals were excellent, which I particularly appreciated as a vegan who avoids gluten. I would unreservedly recommend a visit to Lincoln, but one thing to note is that there are lots of cobbles and it is hard to avoid steep hills when exploring, so accessibility for those with mobility issues may be tricky.

    First time either of us had been to Lincoln and, since we came to play in a chess tournament, we didn't get to see very much of it. However, what we did admire on our stroll along the High Street was some beautiful and interesting architecture, the Cathedral and many other churches, sculptures and agreeable people. There was a nice atmosphere and lots of families, so it felt very safe to walk in the evening. We enjoyed dining at the Ritz, a beautifully restored art-deco Wetherspoon.

    Beautiful city. Small so you don’t feel overwhelmed. Impossible to get lost as you see the cathedral on hill from everywhere. Very green, trees everywhere. Lovely views of surounding countryside. Great restaurants with good vegan choices. Attractive canal area. Friendly people. Very safe.

    Lincoln is a lovely city to visit with a wide variety of shops and excellent tours of castle and cathedral. Plenty of choice in respect of eating places to suit most budgets and parking around the city was good with reasonable pricing.

    We have been to Lincoln before, on a work related trip. This time, it was a welcome half-way stop when going home. The castle, cathedral and old part are fascinating, which I would have liked to explore more fully. The new city part was also very buzzy. There are some fantastic shops, from delis to clothing and specific interest groups (aircraft parts).

    The staff are pleasant and were helpful when our room wasn't cleaned (due to staff shortages). We would describe Woodcocks as a good budget hotel offering value for money. The rooms are very similar in style to the Travel Inn chain. There is a family pub adjacent to the hotel; we didn't eat there as the menu was limited in terms of healthy vegan options. The location is good being a 20 minute drive (traffic permitting) of Lincoln City Centre. Also, good for the A46.

    Not a chain hotel. Quirky with lots of character. Converted from a former hospital. Set in parkland. Excellent location in historic Uphill Lincoln. Also close to Museum of Lincolnshire Life. Adjacent to the Castle and close to restaurants and pubs. Cathedral 10 minutes walk. Twenty minutes walk via Steep Hill down to city centre. Nice continental breakfast included with good coffee/tea, cereals, juices, croissants,toast and some fruit. Staff excellent throughout.

    Lovely, comfortable, clean hotel with very friendly and welcoming staff. Our room overlooked the Brayford wharf area which is attractive both night and day. The hotel is situated a short walk from a large number of bars, restaurants and Lincoln City Centre itself. The breakfast options and quality are absolutely top drawer, the choice is formidable. This was our third mini break here this year and it certainly won't be our last.
