Best Hotels in Lincoln
Lincoln divides into uphill and downhill, and where you stay decides how much climbing you do. Here is how to choose.
Uphill, by the cathedral
Staying in Bailgate or around Castle Square puts the cathedral, the castle and the old streets on the doorstep. It is the calmer choice, and the most atmospheric.

Questions to ask before booking
Is reception staffed late? Is there parking at the door, especially uphill? Can you have a quiet room away from the lift and the street? The answers say more than the photographs.
