休息酒店(The Rest Hotel)

Quick stop for lunch and what a lovely lunch we had at The Rest. I opted for one of my fave lunches cheese and tomato toasty which was really good but soon had envy when I saw hubby’s loaded cream cheese and smoked salmon bagel … ! It was actually deconstructed (I believe that’s how to describe it) - so you had very tasty cream cheese, smoked salmon, red onion, beef tomato and capers to top your bagel with as you wished - absolutely delicious - the best I’ve tasted - I usually dislike this mix when buying at a cafe etc as they are normally stodgy and way too much cream cheese. Wish I’d got a photo of it !! Highly recommend.

The Rest is a great place to stay and in the best part of Lincoln. You can walk up Steep Hill and be at the Castle and the Cathedral in a few minutes, and there are lots of independent shops/cafes etc nearby. Our room was really nicely presented and very quiet. The bathroom was fantastic and the bed was extremely comfortable. We had breakfast in The Rest coffee shop downstairs and our croissants, pain au chocolate and cake were all delicious, as was the coffee. I can't imagine a better place to stay in Lincoln. Highly recommended.

Located in the prettiest part of town on steep hill ( it’s steeeeeep ) The host Steph was really nice and the girls very helpful. Would recommend having breakfast there too . Steph upgraded me to a bigger room which was amazing. I would recommend the pie shop just up the hill & the cheese society just down the road for lunch . Thanks Steph & the girls for a lovely stay

Great accommodation which was spotlessly clean and well maintained, ideal location and super hosts. Used the Flaxengate car park for overnight car parking which is nearby. Would have no hesitancy in recommending 'The Rest' and would definitely return here.

This is a perfect location on the beautiful Steep Hill. Our room was immaculately presented, extremely clean, and very comfortable. It had a lovely big modern bathroom, great shower and there's a fab little kitchenette too. We didn't use this as we only stayed one night but I can see how it could be really useful. I'd definitely recommend this hotel, the owners are really friendly and welcoming too.

This small hotel is ideally placed for a short visit to Lincoln, a short walk from all the main attractions. It's admirably run, and could be described as airbnb in style were it not that the owners, Paul and Steph, are often to hand in the café below and are most helpful to their guests.

Situated halfway up Steep Hill the Rest is ideally situated to explore the Old Town of Lincoln. A converted chapel the rooms are very small, basic but clean and quiet at night so had 3 good nights sleep. The cafe below is handy for breakfast. Check in was hassle free and well explained in the confirmation email. Not recommended for anyone with mobility issues.

Lovely place in the beautiful old part of Lincoln. Its on a steep hill, and theres external steps up to the rooms - something to be aware of if you have mobility issues. But I dont, so, I really liked the location. Close to the cathedral and castle, and lots of lndependent shops and cafes in quaint old buildings. The room I had was a decent size, with a small kitchenette squeezed in. The bathroom was clean, everything was modern and well maintained. Easy to check in and out, everything was a dream and I would definitely stay here when visiting Lincoln again.

In a nutshell; beautiful hotel, beautiful location, beautiful owner!! From the moment me and my 4 friends arrived we were given the warmest and friendliest welcome, and nothing was too much trouble. The hotel itself is perched on steep hill and everything is done to a superb quality. Super clean and beautifully decorated rooms! The owner is a wonderful welcoming and genuine lady and I would most definitely return! 5 ***** Xx
