Lovely stau
Lovely self contained room with small kitchenette and en suite. Comfortable space and bed. The only minor complaint is the shower which only provided a small amount of water and not much power.

So close to the Cathedral, Castle and shopping. Super-clean and comfortable. Lovely to have the cafe downstairs - don’t think it could have been bettered!

Very nice
Nice modern, well appointed, clean rooms accessed by a shared terrace with seating and tables. Kitchenette and basic kitchenware were advantageous

Super spot in the centre of old town
Stayed for two nights and a weekend break for two. Location is excellent but it is on Steep Hill and it’s named that for a reason. We couldn’t drop off outside parked down the hill which was a big mistake. Make sure you park above the place. The room was excellent and was clean and tidy with all the facilities you could want. The cafe is underneath and has great coffee and friendly service and you get 10% discount as a guest. Highly recommended and a great location to explore wonderful Lincoln.

The room was very clean and tidy. Would have liked more coffee bags especially as the cafe downstairs was closed when we arrived on the Monday and only open from 10am - 2 on the other days.
Instructions for checking in and out were very clear.
Stairs and outside areas were gritted prior to. Snowfall.

Great room, comfy bed, clean and convenient for the Cathedral and Castle. Had small problem with the YV which was put right swiftly and with a smile. Great service. I can’t fault this hotel at all. Also great value for money and it’s always nice to buy independent and local

The Rest Inn, located on Steep Hill is right in the heart of Lincoln and close to the Cathedral, Castle and the hustle and bustle of a traditional market town with so much on offer. Our suite was comfortable with many thoughtful touches and an area outside with tables and chairs for occupants of each room to enjoy eating or just being outside. Great shower and comfy bed. Communication was excellent. Great value.

Perfect hotel
This was the perfect little hotel. Very central to the shops and pubs. The staff were very welcoming and friendly. I informed the hotel it was my other halves birthday and they left him a little card and chocolates.
The room was perfect and had everything we needed for our stay. Including and iron and ironing board and hair dryer. There's a lovely shared balcony with chairs and table.
We will definitely visit again.
