Hotels in Lincoln

Written By Ben Doyle

Lincoln City has a vibrant history which is why it attracts thousands of visitors each year. The hospitality industry has grown in and around Lincoln, providing a variety of accommodations for travelers of all types and budget size. There are a number of hotels in Lincoln, all exuding the kind of charm, character, warmth, friendliness and professionalism unique to the area that entices people to come back again and again.

Below are Lincoln City hotels that will suit all manner of requirements and budgets:

The Old Palace

Located just steps from the Lincoln Cathedral in the heart of the city’s historic quarter, The Old Palace is a Georgian and Victorian building built on medieval foundations. Carefully restored between 2007 and 2009, and deliberately decorated and furnished to harmonize with its interiors’ era, The Old Palace was very recently opened as a hotel. It offers 16 bedrooms and suites that have been decorated with elegant fabrics and draperies, and feature beautiful and comfortable furnishings. The traditional bedrooms have been combined with modern bathrooms that are equipped with power shower and come with thick towels and toiletries. All rooms also feature complimentary broadband access, flat-screen television, telephone and hairdryer.

The Old Palace takes travelers back in time with its medieval structures and romantic ruins that are still in evidence, surrounding one side of its front courtyard and its eastern boundary. Stunning views welcome guests, whether they look out at the Cathedral or across the city.

Complimentary breakfast is included with a choice of full English breakfast and a variety of continental breakfast.

The Old Palace is also the perfect venue for special occasions such as weddings, anniversaries, Christmas dinners or even business meetings.

Plans to extend the The Old Palace to include the neighboring former church of St. Michael on the Mount will be soon underway to create 16 additional and equally beautiful rooms including 2 suites.

The Castle Hotel

The Castle Hotel is located at the heart of Lincoln’s historic centre and offers 18 luxurious rooms and a 5-star rated self-catering apartment. It is the ideal choice for both leisure travelers who want to explore the historic city of Lincoln, and businesspeople, as it offers complimentary on-site parking and Wi-Fi to help keep them connected.

Simply stated, The Castle Hotel has everything that discerning travelers need and want: ideal location, breathtaking views, luxury accommodations, scrumptious food, and modern amenities you can’t do without. It radiates a ‘home from home’ vibe; the highly modern interior design by award-winning designers Treehouse Interiors notwithstanding.

Each en-suite room is beautifully appointed, featuring 80-channel media centres, free Wi-Fi, with bathrooms outfitted with drench shower with most including a full size luxury bathtub. The hotel’s Luxury Apartment is perfect for long-staying visitors, or those who just want a bigger space and more freedom.

An on-site restaurant called The Reform features contemporary European cuisine that include fresh, seasonal ingredients using local produce whenever possible. Diners can enjoy their meals in the restaurant’s stylish and relaxing setting.

The Castle Hotel is perfectly situated, especially for those who wish to steep themselves in the city’s rich history. Located in the Bailgate area, sitting between the spectacular Castle and extraordinary Gothic Cathedral, The Castle Hotel is built on the site of the old Roman Forum. The surroundings take guests to days gone by with ancient cobbled streets, the 2nd century Mint Wall located at the rear of the hotel.
