I had a wonderful stay at the Tower Hotel. The location was spot on, just a short stroll from Lincoln's key attractions. The food was a highlight—especially the breakfast, which had so many awesome options. However, I wish the service had been a bit more organized, as it felt a little chaotic at times.

I enjoyed my stay at Tower Hotel overall, especially because of its fantastic location near the historic Cathedral and Castle. The food, particularly breakfast, was a highlight with great options like Eggs Royale. However, my experience was slightly marred by some cleanliness issues in the room. I'd definitely consider returning for the great value for money and the charming atmosphere! 😊
