Branston Hall Hotel  

There are two very nice lounge areas to relax in and the breakfast rooms are beautiful with lots of light filtering in through the windows. The staff were very polite and helpful, the location is beautiful. An excellent evening meal and helpful restaurant manager who is happy to cater to your needs if you require something a little different.

The room I booked was rather too small and too warm. We had a view to the fire escape, disappointing when there are such beautiful grounds to be looked at and the four poster pine bed looked tacky against the grandness and luxury of the rest of the hotel.

Everything you need for a relaxing break is here. The staff are friendly and helpful, the room was on the small side but comfortable with a good view of the lake. The food in the restaurant is superb. We had a lovely relaxing break.

really pleasant staff really good food a very nice place to stay

Friendly, warm, quiet, no noise from traffic. Very pleasant staff. A good base for a trip in to Lincoln city.

As my godaughter had got married at Branston several years ago I decided to treat my husband [for birthday] and our friends to a night at this luxury hotel. It brought back fond memories of the beautiful setting and surroundings. The food was outstanding and the staff were all very pleasant.

Its friendliness and ambience, the quality of the food, and the attentiveness of the staff

State of the car park

Staying in a country house was very pleasant. The breakfast menu was very good.

Bedroom could have been dusted and hovered more thoroughly. One receptionist was not very welcoming nor friendly.

The location of the hotel is fantastic, the swimming pool, sauna and jacuzzi were really good. The breakfast was great - the waiters were very attentive.

The rooms were a bit tired looking, we had a hole in our ceiling right above our bed which I wasn't very happy about - especially when reception said they didn't know anything about it and couldn't do anything about it until the next day when they spoke to the maintenance man. The receptionist offered us a move to another standard room but the view was horrible - the room we were in had a lovely view over the lake. So we opted to stay - the hole made me feel uncomfortable though. The shower wouldn't stay in its holder when switch on - the power of the water going through the flex made it shoot of the wall - not good when you have a head full of shampoo and you are hit with the shower head!! I think the location makes the place and they have become a little slack in keeping the insides as well maintained as the outside.

Good location nice reception

Poor quality tired old room under the eves which meant it was too hot with paper thin walls which is ok but then dont charge a premium rate for it. Proper english Breakfasts dont reheat particularly eggs poor quality bacon too rather glaring oversight for this class of hotel

The hotel is in a lovely parkland setting and we loved the quiet relaxed calm . The room was very comfortable and the breakfast very good. We stayed only one night as we were travelling through and would like to have stayed longer.

The food in the restaurant is first class for both evening meal and breakfast. This sets Branston Hall way above similar rated hotels in the Lincoln area

The excellent food means a limited menue and this could be a problem for a longer stay. It would be good to cater for vegitarians - although I suspect the chef would obligue if asked

Being able to totally relax, to enjoy a swim and jacuzzi, to look out of our bedroom windows on to the lakeside, to indulge in afternoon tea in the sunshine on the terrace (with every single item home-baked) and eat a superb dinner in the evening.

After Checking in I was told by the Receptionist that the Restaurant was full and that I could not eat in the Restaurant. I was also given a Guest Questionaire to Complete. After speaking with the Hotel Manager the issue was quickly resolved and he opened up another room as an extension to the Restaurant that quickly filled up. Following this initial shock and upset the Manager and the rest of the staff could not have been more helpful and friendly. It really made me change my iniitial thoughts and as a result I would certainly be going back in the near future and would also recommend the hotel to other people.

The Initial check at Reception when I was told that the Restaurant was full and I could not eat in the hotel but that there was a Pub in the Village that served good food. This was corrected later and we did eat in the Hotel Restaurant.
