Lovely accommodation in an amazing old house located at the top of Steep Hill. Paul was a friendly and helpful host
Had a slightly noisy couple next door

The breakfast was delicious with a good choice . The waitress was polite and very helpful and accommodating. The room was very clean , comfortable , with a great view of the cathedral and although very central, surprisingly quiet throughout the night, we slept very well. Everything excelled our expectations
Everything was tickety boo, would have liked a bigger tv, but not everyone likes to be in bed early like me, so that’s my issue not the establishment’s fault

Fantastic location. Very helpful hosts. Great breakfast.
We had a smaller room in the annexe. Another time I’d book earlier and get one of the bigger, more charming, rooms in the main building.

We were at the top of the house in a very nice room, but the heating struggled a little.

Amazing location, lovely hoste who allowed us to use the parking space early and after check out, also allowed us to check in early. Great breakfast, beautiful building, clean rooms and comfy beds. We could not fault how we were taken care of and would definitely recommend.Next time id like to stay in the rooms with the beams across the ceiling.
That we didnt stay longer.

Perfectly situated for the cathedral and castle with lots of shops, cafes and restaurants close by. Large comfortable room with lots of character in an historic building. Good cooked breakfast prepared by friendly host. On site parking is behind the property via a narrow arch.

You will not find a better location visiting the Tourist information shop, Post Office, Cathedral and restaurants, bus stops, etc etc. All within 5 minutes and free parking! Breakfast cooked to order great selection of fruit, cereals, yogurt or Paul cooked anything on the menu.
The entrance through the arch is not a problem, just line up slowly and squarely fold in mirrors. I drive a VW T Roc it was easy. Plus I backed up to the accommodation so my vehicle was out of site an added bonus helped by Paul

The location was perfect at the top of Steep Hill. The hosts were lovely, friendly, and informed us well about everything, including the best places to eat. The breakfast was all freshly cooked to order, with the usual extras, cereals, juices, etc. We had room 7 at the top, and it was lovely, really quirky with a low ceiling and all the original beams, plenty of storage space, a good-sized bathroom with a shower.
The bed was too soft, but that's personal taste. It was lovely, though a little expensive.

Location and cooked breakfast ok no choice for continental
Room was very small for a double. Parking was a nightmare, no space for cars and my husband helped a couple of people to get cars out.

The location couldn`t be better right in the centre of Lincoln and only a 3 min walk from the cathedral and castle. Breakfasts were excellant and the staff very friendly and helpful.
The room was a little cramped around the bed , the bathroom was in need of some cosmetic treatment . The extractor fan was either not working or not strong enough for the room.

Excellent location. The Cathedral View Guest House lies midway between the cathedral and the castle, a few yards from each, at the top of Steep Hill. Although plain and nondescript from the street, the guest house, a former coaching Inn, has charm and character as well as history, creaky stairs, oak beams and friendly, knowledgeable hosts hosts. It is clean and comfortable and I wish I could have stayed longer..
Access to the Cathedral View's car park is a little tight, manageable but tight..

8.0 / 10.0
The location is excellent for exploring the historic Cathedral Culture of Lincoln, with its many independent shops.The breakfasts were superb with a good choice of cooked or cereals and as much tea /coffee and toast as you would like. The staff and owner were very friendly and helpful. The bathroom was very nice and the walk-in shower most welcome after a day’s exploring. Having free off-street parking is a real bonus.
The room we stayed in was just okay for a couple and there was no room for a chair, although there is a lounge in the main building that could be used for relaxing in. The room would be an ideal size for a single traveller. The walls seemed a bit thin as you could hear guests in the next room coughing, extractor fans etc. We visited in a heatwave and there was an electric fan provided although at night with the blinds down it could be a little stuffy, even with the window open. Be aware that the entrance to the rear car park is a bit narrow for modern day cars, with just a few inches of wiggle room either side, but the building itself is listed so nothing can be done about that!
