I stayed 1 night for work, the place was tidy and clean, I was in a room at the front of the property so could hear road traffic. It wasn’t too noisy. Kitchen area was clean and tidy, bed was comfortable. Parking only for 5 vehicles if people park correctly. I would stay again as it’s good location for travel to the centre of Lincoln isn’t to far away. But its convenient for my work place when I’m in Lincoln.

Ok for short stay.

Stayed in room 3. Ok for short stay. Mattress needs replacing, sunk in the middle. Street light comes into the room at night. Blinds had a lot of dust on them. Nice modern bathroom. Not enough parking.

Overall the stay was OK, however, few little jobs needed a handyman to fix and this would have made all the difference.

No continental breakfast

It was very clean and warm but was advertised with a continental breakfast. There was no breakfast other than 4 slices of bread in the room with cheese and a yoghurt in the fridge. Very poor!

Mediocre stay, property very clean and set out to a high standard. The beds were very soft and hard to sleep on not very comfortable. The heating was very high and made for an uncomfortable evening. Other than that a great stay and good value for money for a night to stay. -fyi the bread in the sandwich bags was a weird touch.

5 star treatment without the 5 star price!

It may not be a 5 star hotel but I would give Tennyson 5 stars for the way guests needs are catered for. Entry was simple and effective thru key safe. the room was clean comfortable and warm - I returned from a meal at the local Wetherspoons (brilliantly converted cinema covered in lights!) to find the heating had come on and the room was warm as toast. Breakfast items were in the room with access to a kitchen kitted out with microwave, toaster etc. The bed was clean and comfortable and the bathroom had a decent size shower you could move in. For a handy overnight stop it was perfect and very reasonable. Woke up the next morning fully refreshed to be greeted by the first snowfall of the year..... Full marks Tennyson, keep up the good work.

Loved this place. Not 5 star posh but 5 star different in a good way. Self check in easy peasy and room was just like being a home but tidier! Nice little breakfast bits in room and a lovely kitchen downstairs to use. Excellent price for a good night's sleep. Road was a little noisy but I use earplugs so no worries for me there anyway. Would recommend for a night or 2.

Overall, an enjoyable ovenight stay. Room very clean as was the en suite facility. Bed comfortable too. Good to have access to an electric fan and room fridge too. Slightly disappointed with the continental breakfast. Was expecting danish pastfies not breaf and jam. Parking for drivers new to Lincoln could be explained in a little more detail Would certainly stay again if in Lincoln.

Very noisy position on a main road with constant traffic. Milk in room fridge was off. 2 cereal spoons in breakfast room for up to 24 guests and I had to put the dishwasher on and empty it in the morning otherwise all crockery would have been left dirty. Used cups in room not replaced with clean. No obvious housekeeping between the two nights stay apart from bag of rubbish left hanging on newel post. Would really really not recommend.
