We stayed for 2 nights.
The location was perfect for dining options and walking into Lincoln centre of town.
Carparking around the back was a bonus as was having hotel lifts.
Breakfast was excellent.
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay but we did have just one glitch.
The room air conditioner did not get cold enough for our liking.
I definitely recommend this hotel
Fabulous hotel, our favourite in Lincoln for the location, parking, lovely rooms and comfy beds. Breakfast selection is excellent and a lovely dining room with helpful pleasant staff
We will be returning soon :)
The Holiday inn, Brayford along the canal, wasn’t far to walk the steep inclement to the cathedral, castle or to little shops.
Lincoln is a beautiful place to visit, full of historical and character buildings, mixed with new.
The people are very nice and helpful here.
Easy parking, friendly receptionist, She noted we came as a family and gave us interconnecting rooms without having to be asked, Extra Brownie points. The rooms were large and clean with excellent air conditioning. Good Continental breakfast at a reasonable price. The hotel is located in a good location and is reasonably priced. As a result I strongly recommend it.
The room was clean, staff were very helpful and moved us room quickly when one of the beds wasn’t right. Nice breakfast plenty of choice. We managed to get parked in car park with no problems. Great location.

Clean and cheap(ish) hotel to stay overnight whilst visiting my Daughter at University. Room clean and comfortable bed, but apart from sleeping I was barely in the hotel so can really rate food or anything else.
We booked to attend a music gig at Lincoln Castle. Great location, 5-minute walk from the main city centre, 10 minute walk from the Castle and Cathedral. Hotel in good order, room spacious with everything we needed. But very expensive for what it was (marked-up price due to the gig, no doubt).
We have stayed in various hotels in Lincoln and this was by far the best. Although we only stayed 1 night, we were impressed. The location is excellent and the staff were very attentive and friendly. The location of the restaurant where breakfast was served was stuuning as it overlooked the Brayford. Again, all staff were excellent as was the buffet breakfast and the variety of food available. We will definitely return. Thank-you for a great stay.
