8/10 Good
"Located virtually next to the Cathedral and within easy walking distance of all the 'upper' streets of Lincoln, with their restaurants and bars, it is in an ideal location with it's own carpark too! Should you venture downhill to the riverside and modern shops, the bus back up the hill stops outside the hotel!! The only thing to beat the excellent breakfast is the stunning view of the Cathedral from the restuarant window. The room was quite comfortable and quiet with all ammenities and our 5 days there were very satisfactory."

"I was asked to phone the property on arrival about parking but the number I had was a call centre, but they gave me the direct number (this was a bit of a faff as I was parked precariously on a double yellow so having the direct number in advance would have been helpful). It turns out that you can't always park on the property - they give you a residents parking permit and send you off to look for a space. It very steep hills around the property, so be aware and accept the offer to take your luggage from you unless you fancy a bit of a work out! Amber welcomed me well and I was taken to my room which was good, stylish and well equipped. The walk into the main town and cathedral was only about 5 minutes. I managed to get a map from tourist information as they did not have one at the property. I slept ok and there was no noise from other rooms. Breakfast food was good and lots of choice but the atmosphere was a bit frantic; we were sat on large tables together with other guests and people were coming and going the whole time and talking on their phones and to each other across the table which is great if you like that first thing. If like me you like a peaceful breakfast....no chance. The view across Lincoln was lovely. Check out was non-existent. I had eaten a chocolate bar from the fridge but there was no-one around to tell/pay. I walked to my car with my luggage, got my permit, drove back to hand it in and still no one around. I left it on the table. I owe you for the choc!"

"Grayz Studio was perfect. I’d visited the tea room before, but never knew this lovely place was just upstairs. It was a lovely place to be, whether for wandering around Steep Hill, or for getting breakfast downstairs and staying in to work. Clean, sunny, well-appointed—and a giant welcome scone when I arrived! Thanks for a marvelous stay. 10/10 will stay again."
