“Townhouse-style, boutique hotel in a great location for enjoying the city’s sights and shops without having to walk far. Sleek and unfussy rooms in modish shades of grey and silver with an excellent, and lively, bistro-style restaurant.”

Hotel Review

Strolling distance between Lincoln’s two must-see buildings - the Norman Castle and Gothic Cathedral - and looking straight onto the castle walls, this hotel has, arguably, the number one spot in the city. The attractive buildings on cobbled Steep Hill (well-named) housing independent shops, cafes and pubs, are also just a five-minute walk. Originally a Victorian school, the tall, red-brick building has been converted into a townhouse-style hotel with boutique-designed rooms: soft carpets, pale neutrals, sleek furnishings and pops of silver to add a bit of dazzle. Most rooms are in the main building - the top-floor, under-eaves rooms have the most character. Some ground-floor rooms are across the courtyard with a separate, self-contained apartment above (usefully, for families, as this can also be self-catering). There’s a small, smart but relaxed bar and a sassy restaurant which wouldn’t look out of place in the cooler areas of Edinburgh, Bristol or even London. Cooking is confident and bistro-style, virtually everything is made in-house, with an interesting, and modestly priced, wine list. In the warmer months, there’s space for a couple of tables on the small front terrace. A stylish base to explore the city’s culture, history and shops - and with a buzzing restaurant to round off the day over dinner.
