From the minute we got there to the minute we left it was exceptional 😁 .. we booked it last minute as our regular hadn't got room availability not knowing what we'd turn up to. However, when we pulled up we instantly fell in love. We were greeted in the Pub adjacent to the Hotel itself where whom I believe was the Manager came and had a chat with us.. he told us where to go walking, pointed out little shops/dining places and was so very informative. From there we checked in to the Hotel which inside the room was absolutely spotless and although we brought our 2 young Children with us (4 in the room, 3 beds) the room still felt cosy, not cramped at all. We did have a little mishap with our room key cards which we laughed about afterwards but still, from the minute the owners found out about this issue they again couldn't do enough for us and put things right instantly. We came over finalizing our Wedding arrangements and are now actually booking up again for the day and following day of our Wedding as absolutely everything about it.. hotel, pub, scenery, information, staff we just can't think of a better place to spend our Wedding Day/Night plus future stays when visiting Family. These people are truly amazing and I wouldn't hesitate in recommending them to anyone.. can't wait to be back in September. Thank you to all at the Woodcocks!! 💖

Booked in a hurry and just wanted a bed for the night. Wasn't expecting much, imagine my surprise to arrive at this little gem of a place. Stylish, spotlessly clean, friendly staff and a great breakfast the next morning. Will definitely be coming back here.

The hotel was absolutely gorgeous throughout! The staff were incredibly nice, stored luggage for us and made checking in and out easy. The bed was comfortable and the room was nice and quiet. It's not often that you can look out the window and see a castle! We loved the convenience of the location and our tapas dinner at Ole Ole next door was wonderful (reservations encouraged). There were lots of quality options at the continental breakfast (beautiful pastries, breads, sliced meat and cheese, fruit, yogurt, and more). We would return in a heartbeat!

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.

    I can not make a review because I made my visit for a family funeral. My mother was born in Lincoln ( METERINGHAM ) & the remaining members of the family still live in Lincoln now. I live in Looe, Cornwall, where my mother moved to when she married my father during the 2nd World War.

    Lincoln is well served by road and rail, has a great transport hub with buses adjacent to rail station. So much history from Roman times to the invention of the tank. Cathedral is astonishing and dog friendly. Many events throughout the year. Much info around the city to help the traveller. Plethora of hotels and accommodation for any purse.

    So much to see and a great ambience...

    So much to see and a great ambience... We had specifically planned to visit the castle, the cathedral and some of the historical buildings around. We were not disappointed with any of these. Both the castle and the cathedral are oozing history which you are helped to appreciate by knowledgeable and enthusiastic guides. Jaw-dropping experiences in both of them! Both are very visitor friendly too. The city itself was a pleasant surprises, not least because of the youthful vibe coming from the very prominent presence of the University. If you are into shopping this is an excellent place - lots of variety and easy to get around. Though with only two nights there we barely scratched the surface. And if you want good old quality fish and chips which really are "cheap as chips" The Sign of the Fish is worth looking out...

    Amazing city, beautiful historic areas to explore.

    Amazing city, beautiful historic areas to explore. The cathedral was beautiful especially at choir practise, the castle was free to go into the grounds and was lovely to read the history. Would go in the castle next time. The history of the streets and all the information panels were so fascinating and the variety of independent shops and cafes was very good.

    It was clean, fresh with new paintwork and carpets The bedroom was roomy and all the facilities were spot on. Staff were a very happy and polite bunch and gave good service. Food in restaurant for both breakfast and dinner had a good selection and was nicely cooked. All in all a very nice 3 day stay. We would certainly recommend this hotel. It also is very handy for visits to Lincoln and nature park which are easy to reach. Good value for money! Plus….. lots of parking out side the hotel!

    Great location for visiting Lincoln and Lincolnshire. On a bus route direct to the city centre, and not far from the northern Park and Ride. If you liked walking, there is a 7 mile route along the River Witham which was very enjoyable.
