Absolute gem

Honestly, this is a total gem. Staff we friendly and super enthusiastic and which really set the scene for this stay. The room? I mean, not at all out of place in a boutique hotel in a city like Manchester. Absolutely gorgeous, with lots of thoughtful extras.

Good base for visit

Good base at top of town near Cathedral and Castle.Very friendly staff and tasty breakfast. Room 1 was large and comfortable but on a hot day, even 3 fans could not keep cool and had to leave window open at night. On site parking a bonus. Open top bus tour stops outside and is very interesting. Bomber Command stop worth a visit on the tour. Would stay again

The hotel is convenient for the cathedral and castle and we didn’t need to use the car at all. Good breakfast, friendly staff, room was nice, free parking and we’d definitely recommend it to friends. Can’t find any negatives at all.
Lovely Cathederal. Recommend the tour

If you have a head for heights we recommend the roof tour of the Cathederal

2nd time we’ve stayed here, such a lovely period place, has everything you need, great location, superb staff / service, excellent quality food and drink, Oh, and the included full English breakfast was glorious after sampling a few too many drinks the night before. We’ll definitely be back for more…

Lovely big room and ensuite. Quirky, style with recycled furniture, all used to great effect to create a luxurious yet very comfortable feel to the room. Great location - easy walking distance to all main attractions and shopping. Lovely food, excellent breakfast and good choice of quality evening meals. Fabulously helpful staff - nothing was too much trouble. Onsite car parking a definite plus point too. We visit Lincoln annually and will definitely stay at the Duke William again.
