The staff were excellent, polite, friendly and efficient. The room was very very good - good standard of fittings, bed extremely comfortable and the bedroom and bathroom were immaculately clean. In a fantastic location with astonishing views out over the city and "easy" access to the castle and cathedral - I say "easy" because although it's a short distance to them, Lincoln is a very hilly place!
All in all, a brilliant stay.

Ideally located for exploring the castle and cathedral, with free onsite parking. Very comfortable, large and airy king sized room with remote controlled roof velux window. Tastefully decorated. Mini bar snacks and cold drinks and fresh milk in fridge.

We had a lovely 2 night stay at The Poplars and would happily return. The staff were very friendly and knowledgeable of the area. The location of the property was ideal for sightseeing and getting to shops, cafes and restaurants, and was nice and quiet at night. Our room was large, clean and comfortable and cane with everything we needed. The breakfast options in the morning were fantastic and delicious each day and the staff were around to offer more coffee or help you plan your day. Thank you for a lovely stay!

Quirky,
Very tight access and parking.
Indeed would not use again purely for this reason.
This is an old fashioned B&B
Clean and quiet.

The hotel was a beautiful, older estate with many comforts. Our host, Martin, was so kind and showed us around the estate. He helped us with knowing what to do around Lincoln and was incredibly friendly. The room itself was beautiful and had lots of amenities such as food, tea, and more. The provided breakfast was delicious and the service was incredible. We were in walking distance close to the castle and the cathedral. Loved our stay and we would do it again!!

Nice B&B centrally located to the key sites/areas. Friendly and helpful staff. Basic breakfast, but included - extra for cooked (eggs, etc). I stayed in a smaller room, but had everything and a roomy shower. In a converted house - narrow stairs and no lifts.
