Nice place there is plenty of parking places but it is expensive to park I stayed 2 nights and it would have been £44 but they gave me a voucher so it cost me £22 instead but apart from that it was a nice place

I recently stayed at the Holiday Inn in Lincoln after my usual accommodation was fully booked, and I was pleasantly surprised at every stage of the visit.
From the start, the fast charger for the electric car was a welcome convenience. Check-in on Sunday, 13th September, was handled by incredibly friendly staff who made us feel immediately at home. They were also wonderfully welcoming to our dog, providing a helpful list of local dog-friendly spots.
The room itself was very comfortable, featuring a safe, a cosy bed, and a good shower. Breakfast in the morning exceeded expectations, with a surprisingly enjoyable buffet selection.
Overall, this stay has made the Holiday Inn my new favourite in Lincoln, and I will definitely be returning.

Very friendly helpful staff
Room spacious and clean, basic but has everything you need
Bed comfortable, pillows quite hard so I take my own
Breakfast quite basic but enough
Parking was £11 for 24 hours, plenty of spaces
Hotel is on a busy road, room overlooking car park was quiet
Location is about a 15 minute walk across the bridge to plenty of restaurants
Cathedral is a long walk uphill, Uber was required
Very good value for what we paid £99 inc. breakfast for a Friday night and I would stay again
