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
The hotel we stayed in
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.

Nice but noisy…

My husband and I stayed here for a night away. The room was beautiful - it was very clean, decorated lovely and was spacious. The room was directly above the beer garden which was incredibly noisy until just gone 11pm when the bar shut. Word for word you could hear what was said outside and obviously people were there enjoying themselves - loud and rowdy as to be expected in a popular pub. But, if you want an early night or are a light sleeper, I wouldn’t recommend. Unfortunately for us too, in the morning the person in the next room was up at 7am and the walls are very thin so it sounded as if they were showering in our room. The pub / restaurant was very busy when we went, so quieter times might be better. Overall I enjoyed it - the breakfast the next morning was delicious too - but I wouldn’t stay again.

Lovely hotel.

Lovely hotel, old, cosy and quaint. Staff very friendly and pleasant. Parking at the back was a bonus ( note, a little sign would help, missed it the first time and had to go around again). Great breakfast to start the day.
