Nice clean room. Efficient and friendly staff. Great location and the parking is a godsend. We didn't eat there so cannot comment on food but as somewhere to lay our heads on a trip to explore Lincoln it was ideal.

Unfortunately my room had an over powering smell of curry. However, staff reacted extremely swiftly in allocating another room with a couple of drinks vouchers to boot. Sometimes things go wrong but it's how you re-act that matters. Holiday Inn staff take a bow, first class.

Will definitely go again

We could not fault the hotel in any way. The room was clean, well equipped and very comfortable. All the staff were fabulous. Friendly, helpful and extremely efficient. Breakfast was a delight with lots of choices (though I was sorry to miss the black pudding) and all the plates were warm so the food didn't cool quickly. In all wonderful stay. Thank you.
