What a grand place to stay! We loved the decor, the parlor, our room, the breakfast buffet, the staff and the location (easy walking distance to Cardiff Castle, Sophia Gardens, Bute Park, the Civic Center, the river, shops and restaurants). A walk to the bay takes about forty minutes. Bus stops are just down the street, a street lined with... More

A charming hotel in the hip Pontcana district of Cardiff - with cafes, gift shops and chic restaurants just a short walk away. The traditionally dressed room was clean, spacious and well appointed and the staff were warm and welcoming. The choice of breakfast options were fantastic & included a true full welsh with the option of laverbread (which you... More

I stayed here a couple of weeks back and have to say it was a fantastic stay. As soon as I arrived the customer service was so high class and the staff went that extra mile with them getting maps sorted to help us to find carious locations which I wouldn't of known being from Middlesbrough and I even forgot...

We stayed for on night at the Lincoln, and had a great time. The staff were so helpful and friendly. The roon was clean and comfortable and the full Welsh breakfast was fantastic. Its location is good only a few mins walk to the Castle area. We recomend you give the Lincoln a go next time you are in Cardiff.

Stayed here for a night in April. Really great location. Easy walking distance to the castle and main town along the Taft River and through Bute Park. Room was great, Breakfast sensational. The staff could not have been better. Very welcoming and friendly. We had a really great stay. Only gripe was the room was very very warm at night!

A bit out of the "thick of it" and surrounded by other lovely hotels. We enjoyed our stay there so much. The owner and staff could not have been nicer. Breakfast was superb. Sitting area as cozy as it gets. Loved this stay!

Lincoln House is a beautifully restored late Victorian town house on swanky Cathedral Road, replete with lavish original features. The internal layout, with all the imposed compulsory firedoors, can be bewildering; but how much better than some vanilla chain hotel in Central Cardiff with identikit rooms and windows you can't open? The LH is close enough to be convenient, yet... More
