A last minute overnighter and this place is a great bolthole for visiting wonderful Lincoln. Attic bedroom clean comfortable with v nice bathroom en-suite. Above what looks like a great restaurant and minutes away from the cathedral and castle. I will be back
Lovely little find….lovely staff, very comfortable, beautiful dinner….
Should advertise the fact it’s part of the college more we only found this out during dinner and found it fascinating.
Way nicer than I expected. Like having my own flat in the perfect location.

No service whatsoever.
Reasonable price so didn’t expect a lot but there are no staff on site and the telephone contact number given has an answer machine and no one called back. The shower will not come on, the chef came up from the kitchen but could not get it to work either. Be wary if you book to stay here !
Lovely place, would definitely come back. Very clean and directions to get in all clear. The flooring is dangerously slippy though in the rooms, don't walk around in just socks! The senser/timer for the hall light in room 3 was too long and disturbed sleep. The location was ideal though and right near the cathedral and a great curry place.

Despite booking over a month before we intended to stay, our booking was cancelled at 5pm on the day of our stay. Had to find another hotel with a vacancy which cost more than our original booking.
Comfortable.room.above an excellent restaurant in a convenient location close to Lincoln castle.

Property was very good but we stopped room 3 and there water pump under bath wich was vibratiing very badly all night. I reported it to staff downstairs and all i got was apologies and no one would take any action witch spoilt my sleep all weekend.

Perfect location for what we needed. Room was great although internal doors really heavy and loud so hard to move around quietly. A fantastic couple of days.
Renovated bedroom and shared bathroom. Good location 100 metres from castle. Street traffic somewhat noisy from around 7:30am. Emailed directions were fairly thorough for self-checkin but Googlability would be improved by correcting 'Occupation Street' to 'Road' and mentioning that 'Old Bakery' is a restaurant. Possibly temporary problem, during a warm weather period, is the 'window under repair - please don't open' sign.
