Lincoln: Where History Towers Over You

Lincoln, a city nestled in the East Midlands, presents a rich tapestry of English history, dominated by its impressive medieval architecture. It's primarily known for its formidable cathedral, a structure that once held the title of the world's tallest building, and its well-preserved castle, home to one of only four surviving original Magna Carta documents. The city's steep hill, colloquially known as 'Steep Hill', connects the historic Cathedral Quarter with the lower High Street, offering a distinctive urban experience.

Beyond these significant landmarks, Lincoln's character is shaped by its Roman origins, visible in parts of its ancient walls and the Newport Arch. The Brayford Pool, a natural lake in the heart of the city, serves as a point of interest for leisure activities, while the surrounding area offers a glimpse into the agricultural landscapes of Lincolnshire. It’s a place where historical narrative is ever-present, offering plenty to explore.

Where to book your hotel in Lincoln

For those seeking accommodation in Lincoln, the Cathedral Quarter often proves to be the most popular choice due to its central location and proximity to historical sites.

The Cathedral Quarter, also known as Uphill Lincoln, is dominated by Lincoln Cathedral and Lincoln Castle. Hotels here typically occupy historic buildings, offering boutique experiences. This area is home to the Magna Carta exhibition, Steep Hill, and numerous independent shops, pubs, and restaurants like The Old Bakery Restaurant. Accommodation here tends to be at a higher price point, reflecting the prime location and character.

Moving downhill, the Brayford Waterfront area provides a different atmosphere. Here, you'll find modern hotels, often with views over the marina. This part of the city is bustling with chain restaurants, a cinema, and leisure facilities. It's a lively spot, particularly in the evenings, and offers easy access to the University of Lincoln campus and the Engine Shed, a key music venue.

The area around High Street and St Marks Shopping Centre offers a mix of budget-friendly hotels and guesthouses. This central commercial district provides convenient access to various shops and eateries. While it lacks the historical gravitas of Uphill Lincoln, it’s practical for those prioritising shopping and accessibility to the main Lincoln Central train station.

When considering hotel bookings, Lincoln is well-served by its train station, Lincoln Central, offering connections across the country. For air travel, East Midlands Airport is the closest major international hub, with regular bus services linking it to Lincoln. Doncaster Sheffield Airport is another viable option, typically requiring a taxi or bus connection to Doncaster train station for onward travel to Lincoln. Taxis are readily available from all hotel areas.

Find the best hotel deals in Lincoln

To save a bit on hotel bookings in Lincoln, consider visiting outside of peak times. Prices tend to rise significantly during the summer months, particularly July and August, when the weather is generally at its best and families are on holiday. You'll also find higher rates around major events, such as the Lincoln Christmas Market, which usually takes place in early December, attracting thousands of visitors to the cathedral quarter.

For better value, aim for the quieter periods. January and February are typically the cheapest months, as demand is lower after the festive season and before spring tourism picks up. You might also find more competitive prices in late autumn, once the summer rush has passed and before the Christmas market preparations begin. Booking well in advance, especially for popular weekends, can also help secure better rates.
