The location of the hotel is perfect , literally on the doorstep of Lincoln Cathedral and the castle. Parking is opposite to the hotel - although it is a public car park and a fee charged by meter upto 24hour parking available. The hotel itself is lovely, well presented and very clean. The restaurant area is tastefully decorated and very comfortable. I really thought the breakfast was outstanding and very tasty with a large selection on the menu. The staff were lovely and very accommodating . I would highly recommend . Please note however there was no lift and the stairs could cause inconvenience to some guests.

We had a lovely stay at The Castle Hotel but be warned they operate a direct booking policy for using their car park. As we had booked through Expedia we had to pay to use the council car park across the road even though there were spaces in the hotel car park ‘in case’ someone who had booked direct wanted to use the car park.
