Refurbished throughout by a new owner, this Georgian coaching inn in the city's historic heart offers a good choice of comfortable bedrooms, bars and dining options.
Good Hotel Guide Review
The hotel experts at the Good Hotel Guide
In an enviable location in Lincoln’s historic heart, within sight and sound of the cathedral where the curfew still tolls the knell of passing day, this former coaching inn is undergoing a swish makeover by new owner Andrew Long, with a spa and gym due by the end of 2027. 'What stood out for us were the location and the people,' our inspectors said. They noted that it represented 'excellent value'. They enjoyed a large room with cathedral views. All bedrooms have a coffee machine and mini fridge, a restrained autumnal palette (greys, dusky pinks, plum), classic styling. In the 'warm and colourful' Antlers restaurant the menu leans heavily on bar and bistro classics, such as steaks and salads, pies and burgers, along with dishes such as venison loin. 'The caesar salad was very good.'
