Great place to stay in Lincoln, perfect location for visiting attractions; all within walking distance. The pub was cosy and the food was five star, we ordered Salmon and mussels, chicken & leek pie and a steak, all were delicious, we had no complaints! Staff were always helpful, room was gorgeous, a highly recommended place to stay.

A pub with rooms is a better description rather than hotel, staff great and well situated for cathedral and castle. No overnight staff on site, breakfast had to be booked night before. Good parking and safe area.

Thai is a beautiful historic hotel right on the Bailgate, so close to the cathedral and other sites. The pub below is very quaint and enjoyable. The included breakfast was very good and a big selection for all tastes. The in room amenities, like coffee and water were great! Our only complaint would be the pillows. They were all rock hard and lumpy, even the one softer one. Better quality pillows would take this place up a notch for a boutique hotel.

Staff very welcoming, small hotel, historical premises so lay out not symmetrical but our room was comfortable and quiet. Food excellent, definitely need to reserve dinner as the restaurant is very popular with a good varied menu. Breakfast equally varied and well presented. Location very central, cathedral and castle both close. Thank you!
