Your Perfect Room

✨ AI-generated · Jul 2026

Before you check in to Damons Motel, here's what to know about choosing the right room.

Best rooms to request

Request a room on the higher floors (3rd floor or above) of the hotel for a quieter experience, as the lower floors may be more prone to street noise from the city centre location.

⚠️

Rooms to avoid

Avoid rooms on the ground floor, especially those near the service entrance or lift, as these areas may be more prone to noise from staff and guests.

🪟

Best views

Guests may be able to see the city skyline or the surrounding rooftops from the higher floors, but this is not guaranteed without specific room numbers.

😴

Quietest floors

The 2nd floor and above are likely to be the quietest, as they are further away from the street and lift noise.

🔊 Noise notes

Be prepared for some street noise from the city centre area, especially during the evenings and weekends. The hotel's location on a main road means that some noise from traffic can be expected.

Insider tips

Arrive early for check-in to ensure a smooth process, as the hotel may get busy during peak hours. Consider requesting a room with a view, but be aware that this is not guaranteed and may depend on availability.

How to request your preferred room:
  1. Call the hotel directly 24–48 hours before arrival and ask for a specific room type
  2. Add a note in your booking comments field
  3. Ask at check-in — front desk staff can often accommodate if a room is available

Top Attractions in Lincoln

Steep Hill and The Strait Free

💡 Take the 'Lincoln Lift' from the bottom of the hill (50p fare) if legs are tired. The top has a bench with a cracking view over the city — best at sunset.

The Collection and Usher Gallery Free

💡 The museum's cafe does a good budget lunch — the soup and bread is under a fiver. Check the website for free family workshops on weekends.

Brayford Pool Linear Walk Free

💡 Start at the 'Tower Hotel' end and walk south along the water — you'll see the old warehouses converted into bars. Best on a clear weekday evening when it's quiet.

Lincoln Castle

💡 The free audio guide in the prison is worth it — you hear actual prisoner accounts. Arrive after 3pm for cheaper entry if you want the walls.

Lincoln Cathedral

💡 Visit during a weekday morning for quieter moments. The cafe in the cloisters is decent but pricey; skip it and head to the nearby 'Bailgate Deli' for a cheap flat white.
