We enjoyed this quiet, peaceful and classic hotel as the base for a college reunion. The bedroom, reception and dining room where all in good Lincoln heritage style. The breakfast was good and everyone friendly.

I have just had a one night stay at this lovely hotel. Usually I don't tend to book 2 star establishments but I had looked at this and thought it was worth a go and I am so glad I gave it a chance. The welcome was warm and friendly and nothing was a problem to the staff at all.... More

I stayed one night on business as the usual chain hotels I use in Lincoln were fully booked. I was warmly greeted and found I had room 10 on a corner aspect looking over Lincoln and a local park; very peaceful. I had a large room with four poster and high ceiling which was a pleasant change from the the... More

Hillcrest is in a great location for Lincoln, being just a short walk from the cathedral, castle and Steep Hill. The hotel overlooks the aboretum, which makes for a quiet, peaceful location. We enjoyed the views both from our room and the delightful conservatory, where we enjoyed a pre-dinner G&T later. The room was an adequate size and the en... More

This lovely hotel is in a wonderful location overlooking the Arboretum, but a short walk from the Cathedral, shops & pubs. We were really pleased with the room ( apart from the fact that the previous occupant had been selfish enough to smoke in the room despite all the no smoking signs!! an open window & air freshener soon sorted...

Upon arrival we were greeted with open arms, almost like returning home to a family even though we'd never visited the Hillcrest previously. We were given directions to our room and were offered information on surrounding areas which was very nice and unexpected as we have never even been offered by much larger hotels in larger cities such as Sheffield....

We booked here as it was stated "Dog Friendly" and we needed to stay over following an unexpected death in the family. It is a lovely family run hotel with nice rooms and great views. The hotel accepts a well behaved dog and as the garden opens onto the park, it is great for an early morning or evening stroll.... More

My mum and I booked 2 rooms for 5 nights in October 2012. The location was perfect for exploring both uphill and downhill Lincoln. It was an easy walk both ways. We favoured uphill which is where the cathedral and castle are. There are some lovely smaller shops in this area and I highly recommend The Lion & Snake pub... More

I first used this hotel back in 1983 for work trips to Lincoln, I have been back on occasion over the last three decades with family and friends. The last stay was Saturday 16th Feb 13 - It really is a great place to stay either on a trip to Lincoln or passing through. As a few other advisor's have... More

We have visited the Hillcrest on numerous occasions and only have wonderful things to say about the owners and their customer service. The food is always fabulous and the service attentive, personalised and efficient. We will continue to visit again and again
