I liked the edge of town centre location, everything was walkable, the staff were very helpful and friendly The parking was good, but expensive at £11.25 per 24 hours I have stayed in many Holiday Inn Expresses's and the one thing that let this one down was the breakfast, when compared to elsewhere, the breakfast buffet itself was in a very cramped alcove and the selection wasn't that great.

As always a Hilton hotel gives you the what you need. Beds were comfortable and the parking was reasonable. Staff very helpful. It’s about 25mins walk away from Lincoln Castle and Cathedral and about 10mins from main high street. Easy to get to. Good place to stay.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the hotel. The whole place was clean and the bathrooms particularly spotless. The beds were comfortable and the rooms well appointed. The staff were, without exception, extremely helpful and accommodating. Breakfast was a pleasant surprise with plentiful and enjoyable buffet with lots of choice. Parking is discounted for hotel guests, to £11 for 24 hours. All in all we would definitely stay again and would not hesitate to recommend it.
