Holiday Inn Lincoln is on the edge of the city well located and is clean and comfortable. Increasingly hotels have automated parking this hotel charges £20 for the night reduced to £10 with a discount I appreciate this not a great amount but should be free like the hearty breakfast. I think I would rather pay for the breakfast and have fee parking!
