    The only slight issue was the shower that didn’t work correctly. I also bumped my head in the bathroom on the sloped ceiling but that’s part of the rooms character

    The location is amazing and we love the rooms here

    Light breakfast was provided but this had to be eaten in the room, which was ok, but it would have been useful if the room had a tray provided to make that easier - if there was one, I couldn't find it. Also I thought that for an hotel of good quality furniture and facilities, the quality of the loo paper was terrible!

    The location was the main usp, even though a bit challenging to find, closely followed by the unusualness of the building. Having secure car parking, in that location, was a big advantage. The room and the place itself was very well furnished.

    Excellent location and property in the middle of the old town

    In room breakfast was provided which was fine but was conscious that croissant made a lot of crumbs and felt a little sorry for cleaners.

    Located in the middle of Lincoln old town within 300 yards of the cathedral, shops and restaurants and pubs this is superbly positioned to use as a base to explore from. Secure parking is provided with warm welcome. Room was well equipped, very clean and warm and wi-fi worked well. Would stay there again and recommend to others.

    The only downside, even though so minuscule but thought I'd mention is that, it lies just off Steep Hill. The clue is in the name. This is the road that leads from the old part of the city on the top of the hill to the newer part of the city, at the bottom of the hill. It's steep but short. If you take your time you'll be fine. People with mobility issues may struggle, but don't let this put you off. Get a taxi. It's worth it !!

    The Old Palace Lodge is simply one of the best buildings we have stayed in and the setting, in it's own grounds, with parking is amazing. Room was spacious. Very comfortable bed. Tea/coffee facilities outstanding. Continental Breakfast was just enough to get you going in the morning. Location was spot on in the centre of the old town with the Cathedral & Castle on the doorstep. The staff went above and beyond to help with any request from more milk to local attractions. Stunning ! Stunning ! Stunning !

    Lovely converted church in a beautiful city with a different take on accommodation but very good!

    The shower arrangement over the bath was not good I was fearful of splashing and soaking the floor! The hotel doesn’t do a cooked breakfast (but supplies a cold offering left on your door in the morning) However I did book a breakfast with a local cafe but being disabled I could not negotiate the steep long hills so had to miss out!

    Excellent room and furnishings. Room was warm when we turned on the radiators so we turned them off when we retired to bed but in the morning when we opened the heavy beautiful curtains it became very cold due to the fact it is a converted church! But it did not affect our appreciation of the room at all.

    Everything was as good as you could possibly expect - I simply liked it all!

    The Old Palace Lodge is as good as it looks. Lincoln is great especially the Castle and the Cathedral. Evensong in the Cathedral is magnificent. Stokes cafe astride the river Whitham is lovely. The Walk & Ride bus service is very handy if you want to get back up from the far end of the High Street quickly.

    Didn't really see any staff, would've been nice to have a chat or see some faces!

    The fridge in the room and the breakfast on the door was a fantastic touch. Was so nice to wake up to the smell of warm croissants! The hotel was in a great location and close to old and more modern parts of the city. The room was cosy and comfortable, would definitely visit again.

    Very central with secure gated parking just by the castle. It was warm and comfortable and the staff were exceptionally friendly and helpful. I liked the breakfast hanging on the door handle every morning- the croissants were lovely, warm and crispy. The smell was a great wake up call and the juice in the fridge was fresh and of good quality.

    Amazing accommodation. Spotlessly clean and comfortable. The Lodge is perfectly placed to explore Lincoln. The staff couldn’t do enough to help and are a credit to the Lodge. Loved the breakfast of croissants and yoghurt, perfect for someone who doesn’t have a huge appetite! Would definitely recommend and will be booking again!
