The White Hart Hotel Lincoln, hotel in Lincoln

Located in the heart of Lincoln’s historical quarter, The White Hart Hotel Lincoln offers newly refurbished accommodations with a restaurant, a cocktail lounge and a bar within the shadows of the...

Location , food , staff . Location easy parking 2 minutes walk , 2 mins from cathedral and same again for castle . If you're into shopping only 10 mins walk to town centre high street and a nice walk around the waterfront . But a hike back up "steep hill" not for feint hearted but really not too bad ..... Food plenty of bars and restaurants around the hotel but we stayed in the antlers restaurant which is part of the hotel which also offers bar food . Drinks are well stocked however surprised at lack of "whisky" .... Breakfast plenty to choose from however our last day wife ordered fruit and french toast with maple syrup but the syrup did not materialise but the breakfast is a good choice .staff ....very good but chap who booked us in was a bit like end of shift and was polite but just "pointed" the way to the room however guy who was on door with bowler hat and tweed jacket on was top notch really helpful "showing us rather than pointing"... One other thing 10% service charge is standard on bill , don't do what I did and tip more !! ..... Definitely worth a stay though .....

FAQs about hotels in Lincoln








The Glory of Medieval England

Lincoln was a powerhouse of medieval England and retains amazing monuments from that period. In the Uphill district is the castle built for William the Conqueror. Inside its an original copy of the Magna Carta and its ramparts offer fabulous city views. Across the cobbled square which houses the large Christmas market is huge Lincoln Cathedral whose unusual façade features 2 tall towers, while another at its centre overlooks the Bishop’s Palace.

Connecting the cathedral quarter with the Downhill district is aptly named Steep Hill, a narrow street lined with unique shops and historic buildings including the Jew’s House. Even older are the Roman Newport Arch, Mint Wall and the well on Bailgate.

This road slopes down to meet the River Witham at High Bridge, a stone-arched structure with a half-timbered building atop that is the oldest of its kind in England. Lincoln boat trips depart from the Brayford Pool just west.

Another monument is the 18th-century Ellis Mill, opposite the Museum of Lincolnshire Life. The Collection combines an archaeology museum and art gallery, while The Lawn has a conference centre and the Joseph Banks Conservatory, displaying artefacts he brought back from adventures with Captain Cook.

Booking.com’s Lincoln accommodation covers luxury waterfront hotels, guest houses by the university and cheap apartments near the train station.

    Lincoln is a city dating back to Roman times with many buildings and ancient remains to see. It's more recent history associated with WWI and the invention of the tank can be discovered in the museum of Lincolnshire Life, and its WWII connection to bomber command, the Dam Busters and the RAF can be explored in the poignant International Bomber Command centre and memorial. Lincoln has a very lively pub and restaurant scene, catering for every taste. The cathedral quarter is the most scenic although car parking can be at a premium.

    Stunning cathedral - would recommend the floor and roof tours and the cafe. The Victorian prison in the castle and the ramparts walk are well worth visiting. There is a very steep hill (called Steep Hill!) linking the lower and upper part of the city where the historic centre is.

    I love Lincoln!

    I love Lincoln! I have been 3 times now and keep finding interesting places to go that I either didn't have time for before or hadn't come across. The view from the Castle is amazing - suitable for all weathers. The Victorian Prison inside the Castle is unique and well worth a visit. The Cathedral is breathtaking with a wonderful restaurant attached, helping to extend my visit there. Lots of shops, cafes, bars, cinema, theatre, galleries, etc. Everywhere is welcoming and good value for money. Perfect for a long weekend but also enough to do for a week's stay. I travelled by train there and could walk to everywhere easily. I have used the buses as well, which are easy to navigate.

    I regularly go to Lincoln to visit family and stay for a few days when I can. Some parts of the old town area are difficult to access due to cobblestones and narrow pavements with mobility aids. The cathedral is well worth a visit. Shops and restaurants are plentiful.

    Lincoln is two towns, a lower one which is like many towns in England and an upper town, which is special. At the centre is a square across which the cathedral and castle face one another. The cathedral is so large and impressive that it dominates everything else

    Great venue for a weekend away - you can walk everywhere (steep slope up to the Castle andCathedral). The Cathedral is stunning and the Castle worth the trip on it's own. The £16 ticket seemed a lot, but it was well worth it. A guided tour outside, a walk with audio set around the castle walls, a visit to the old prison and, to cap it all, to see the Magna Carta (one of the four existing copies in existence). With the cafe on site we spent a very full morning seeing everything - allow 4 hours to do it justice.

    Staff really helpful. Room had everything and more that I needed for a visit to the University for which it is ideally located. Room was in first-class condition with everything needed being available. My second visit and a hotel I can both recommend unreservedly and will use again. As a bonus Lincoln, with its cathedral and castle is a great city for a visit and is within easy walking distance of this hotel. If you are lucky you may also see the Red Arrows RAF display team flying over the city as they are based nearby.

    The location was terrific. I was working at the cathedral which was just across the road. The room was big enough, comfortable with a desk to work at and plenty of sockets. Wi-Fi was good enough for me. The car park, just £7 for the whole stay, for a hotel in the city centre was amazing. Couldn’t fault the breakfast. Would stay again whenever I go to Lincoln.

    The hotel is located overlooking Lincoln Cathedral, with Lincoln Castle just a few minutes walk away. The hotel offers on-site parking (at a reasonable charge), with a bar and restaurant on site. Ideal for exploring the Cathedral, Castle and higher level above Steep Hill, with bars and restaurants within a few minutes walk.

    Amazing location we could hear the Cathedral bells and it was a two minute walk to the castle. The place had everything we needed to cook meals and a comfortable bed. The patio was lovely and would have been even better if the weather had cooperated! The parking spot in Lincoln is a huge plus.
