Lincoln
Lincoln’s hotel market centres on its UNESCO-listed cathedral, the revitalised Brayford Waterfront and the University of Lincoln’s academic calendar. Our coverage examines occupancy spikes during Open Days and the annual Christmas Market—which attracted over 200,000 visitors in 2023—and ADR trends around city festivals such as the Lincolnshire Show. We report on new openings, from boutique B&Bs near Steep Hill to branded hotels on Tritton Road, and track RevPAR comparisons with Nottingham and Sheffield. Sustainability strides—like the 2024 launch of a low-carbon boutique hotel—and partnerships with university conference organisers and cathedral events shape our analysis of Lincoln’s evolving hospitality landscape.
