    Nice place but catering staff need to listen to customers. I won't be returning!

    On the second morning one member of staff was disrespectful when bringing my cooked breakfast. I hadn't finished my cereal when my cooked breakfast was brought and when I said I'd not finished she stood there till I let her put it down. She walked away and then came back and said "would you like it under the grill till you're ready". If she'd suggested that first instead of standing over me till I moved my bowl I would be fine. Her attitude makes me not want to return!

    The food was great on both days. The staff was great the first morning but one member was ignorant the second morning.

    Everything about our stay was really good: friendly staff; spacious, comfortable, clean and well equipped room; and a delicious breakfast. A very cozy place to stay if you want to stay a bit far from the busy area, but just a walk-distance from the city centre.

    Not the property’s fault at all however someone in the room behind us was talking loudly for what seemed like hours late at night 😩… it’s difficult to determine at what level to complain …

    Stayed before and will again as good value, great location , parking , pleasant room and breakfast

    Nothing comes to mind.

    I had no idea what to expect as I chose on the basis of proximity to Sophia Gardens. The street is full of solid, well built, late 19th Century villas, one of which is Lincoln House. The rooms are well proportioned and have been tastefully furnished and maintained. Breakfast was filling with a range of items from which to select - but make you sure you obey the timings. The property is not far from the city centre, walkable without luggage, a short taxi or bus ride away. The hosts were helpful and knowledgeable.

    Beautiful traditional place, piped classical music with breakfast and served on bone China. Really traditional and really good quality, very reasonable too, would definitely recommend. 💯

    We liked everything about the property.

    The interior of the hotel looks like a victorian house. It is very clean as well. We enjoyed our free breakfast. We were very delighted as there was a parking area at the rear of the hotel which was very convenient.
