Booked a couple of rooms B&B for one night. Hotel was ideally located and had a car park which was useful. All the staff were very friendly and helpful. Food at breakfast was good with a good selection. There was a nice atmosphere in the bar. Food in the Grille restaurant was ok. Service was good. Rooms were clean but probably needed updating but perfectly acceptable. We would definitely go back and stay there.

We really enjoyed our stay. The suite (205) was exceptionally comfortable for a weekend stay. It was large, quiet and had a good view up to the cathedral. Bed was very comfortable and breakkie was perfect. We were in a group with 6 rooms total. Others didn't have such a great experience with their rooms but we really did. Definitely ask for 205 if you can. I wouldn't recommend staying if you have mobility issues.

The corridors are like narrow rabbit warrens and the lift was broken. As everyone mentions, our car got hammered by the pigeons in the car park. But overall we really enjoyed our stay and would definitely stay again.

The furniture in the room was really dusty. We had room service breakfast on Saturday morning, the housekeeper asked us to put the tray outside our room to be collected, it was still there on Sunday morning. The staff were lovely, polite and friendly.

Lovely hotel central for all attractions. Cathedral and castle literally round the corner. Restaurant food a bit pricey but well worth it. Staff very helpful hotel very warm and comfortable. The only slight downside we couldn't see out of our windows as they were frosted! Which made the room seem very closed in. So if booking and you want a view I think it better to request one just in case.

If you are planning a trip to Lincoln I can't recommend the White Hart Hotel enough. Right on the doorstep of the Cathedral and Castle, you'd be hard pushed to find a better location. The Cathedral bells do ring every hour but not all through the night thankfully! The staff were fabulous, breakfast was well managed and delicious and the hotel and rooms were spotlessly clean. Next time we are in Lincoln theres nowhere else I would want to book.

Staff were very friendly and helpful but the room was quite small and very warm with no opening windows. Only one set of towels was left for 2 of us although we were given an extra set when we asked. The onsite parking was a bonus. The location is excellent particularly as we were in Lincoln for a Graduation ceremony in the Cathedral.
