History

Lincoln College was founded in 1427 by Richard Fleming, the Bishop of Lincoln. Lincoln's architecture is medieval stone and, unlike other Colleges, there is no modern annexe to distract from the 15th-century atmosphere. The library is located in the All Saints Church, an 18th-century church given to Lincoln in 1971. The Church tower gives a notable contribution to Oxford's skyline of Dreaming Spires. Lincoln was among the first of Oxford's Colleges to admit women students in the late 1970s. Lincoln's most distinguished Fellow was John Wesley, a Methodist reformer appointed in 1726. Other notable alumni include Edward Thomas, John Radcliffe, Lord Florey, John Le Carre and Theodor Seuss Geisel (Dr. Seuss).

Food & beverage

Breakfast is not provided, however, tea and coffee-making facilities are provided in each room and there are numerous cafés, restaurants and bars within easy walking distance.

Grounds & Gardens

All guests, regardless of which Lincoln accommodation you are staying in, are welcome to visit the College. The main site is built around three quads: Front Quad, Chapel Quad, and the Grove. Guests are invited to visit the College Chapel - Jacobean Gothic in style, the Chapel's windows feature painted glass by artist Abraham van Linge, the most important glass painter of 17th-century England.

I enjoyed my stay and pleased with en suite room. Central location excellent. Breakfast not included, but many places serving breakfast close to the college, so no problem. Porters very helpful and considerate, assisting me with my suitcase at check-in and check-out and storing it on the day of departure. I felt reassured by knowing that the Porters Lodge is staffed 24 hours a day. Want to stay again and will recommend. Thanks also to the Scouts and everyone working behind the scenes.

The staff in the Porter's Lodge were very friendly and welcoming despite the fact that I arrived late in the evening. They were also very accommodating and helpful, allowing me to store a bag for the day and giving me access to my luggage later in the day. The room was small and quite basic but very clean. No breakfast is served but there are a number of cafes in the area. I need to reiterate that this accommodation is not for someone with mobility issues as there is no lift.

Overall, most of the GATC delegates had a pleasant experience staying at your hotel and appreciated the comfort and service provided. However, there were a few minor concerns raised that we hope can be improved for future stays. Thank you for your hospitality and support during our time there.

Excellent value for money for a single traveller. The room is a student room, but everything was clean and organised. They even provided a little shower welcome pack which was a very welcome surprise!

Honestly it was pretty great. The room was a little small, but nothing I didn't imagine. Also pretty nice view on the college beside. I'll be back.
