- Derek (8/5): Hotel great, just what we needed to make our visit to Lincoln stress free. - Staff friendly and approachable, breakfast was lovely the requested area of our room was good, the location as in the past also is great. The bin in bathroom was not emptied, this was unusual for this hotel, perhaps it was a new member of staff, but nothing to worry about.

- Joshua (10/5): -
- Issie (10/5): Stylish urban chic with impeccable standards of cleanliness and professionalism in an incredible location. - The staff are extremely professional and welcoming, the rooms are stylish and comfortable. The cleanliness throughout is extremely good. The chef cooked breakfasts are top notch. Nothing - it is super.
- Joanne (8/5): - Location and parking
- Bob Noble (8/5): The location is very convenient,parking is close by.Fairly quiet despite being very busy. Food good. - Breakfast/food is excellent. Entry to bedrooms using key is not easy
Heavy quilts made sleeping slightly uncomfortable and too warm.

- Jasper (10/5): Lovely room breakfast and friendly staff made the stay perfect. - Location perfect to access all amenities. Breakfast first class and plenty of choice.
- Stephen (10/5): - Professional and courteous staff. Immediately we relaxed on entering the hotel due to decor & atmosphere- even after a long stressful drive. Good quality rooms and dining. Parking nearby. Excellent breakfast. Good choice of drinks at bar and dining looked high quality & good value but unfortunately we had no time to sample on this stay. Location excellent for castle, cathedral and old town area walks. There is a 24 hour car park across the road. This gets busy during the day and not reservable. We used this ok though & easy carrying luggage. The hotel offers free on street parking permits for a deposit. Unfortunately, this was not advertised on the booking. However, no guarantee you could park next to the hotel with this.
- R&DS (8/5): Clean and comfortable hotek. Good location. - Clean, comfortable room with a spacious, well designed bathroom. Blackout curtains also muffle some of the outside noise. Hotel is located a block or so from the castle entrance and a couple of blocks from the cathedral. Lots of restaurants, pubs, shopping in surrounding neighbourhood. Breakfast is a la carte and cooked to order. Not a complaint, just a comment: I would personally have liked one or two safety bars to grab onto while climbing in/out of tub/shower. The tub is tall and the surface is very slippery when wet. Even with the rubber bathmat in place, I had to be very careful where I placed my hands when climbing in/ out.
- drumcat (9/5): Nice hotel, very "classy", great breakfast, free parking in front of the Lincoln Castle! - Schönes Hotel direkt am "Castle", nettes Personal, gutes Frühstück, freies Parken! (wenn Ausweise übrig!)
- Timothy Stephen (9/5): -
- tracy (7/5): - Great location and staff Bedroom15 nice but needs better matress and pillows,
- Julia (10/5): All in all loved it here, unfortunately we were only here for 1 night and didn’t have chance to try out the restaurant, - Great Location, Lovely Breakfast. Friendly Staff. The shampoo and conditioner were fantastic Pillows were uncomfortable, 2 were to high, 1 not high enough, bit hard

- Cooper (8/5): Great for a short stay in Lincoln - Very nice hotel. Given an upgraded room. Good facilities. Nice bar and restaurant area. Able to sit outside in sunny area both at front and back of hotel. Lovely ciabatta sandwich for lunch. Great location. Full english breakfast didn't quite meet expectations. Bacon had been pre-cooked and was tough and tomatoes were tinned rather than grilled/roasted as stated on menu. Sausage, mushroom etc all good.

The staff are so professional and helpful and the rooms are all spacious and well equipped. Breakfast is a highlight. There is a great choice of dishes which are all cooked to order. This is a perfect choice for a stay in Lincoln. We loved everything
- Paul (9/5): I always enjoy a stay at the Tower. - Location great, staff great, breakfast great. Parking was expensive in the opposite car park. Nothing the Tower could do about that.

- Mason (8/5): -
- Melanie (9/5): Lovely stay. - Friendly and helpful staff. Breakfast tasty and excellent quality. Location perfect for the Cathedral and castle etc. Bar area was full so nowhere to sit and have a drink. Later in the season it would have been ok as outdoor seating available.
- Tony (8/5): An enjoyable stay and would stay at the Tower Hotel again when visiting Lincoln. - Comfortable room, great location and staff very friendly and efficient One suggestion for improvement would be a more extensive dining menu for evening meal.

- Katie (10/5): - Booked for my parents wedding anniversary. They only had lovely things to say about their stay! Thank you
- Gillian (8/5): Perfectly situated, relaxing, friendly and professional. - The hotel is in a great location. A parking permit for hotel guests is a great idea. The breakfast was excellent and service was very professional and efficient. The room was comfortable and spacious. I could imagine that when the bar gets busy and lots of people are out in the beer garden it could get quite noisy. The room had a very unpleasant smell (like bad drains) and the cleanliness of the room could be better.

Parking permit so free on street parking right outside.
The staff here are always friendly and professional. Nothing
- stuart (9/5): Been before. Excellent location and close to where we were going for the afternoon/evening. - Breakfast was VG.
The Bar was brilliant, very busy. They had White Rat on Cask, one of the finest beers there is !! There was nothing not to like.
