Top Lincoln Children's Zoo Hotel Reviews

Drury Plaza Hotel Lincoln Downtown

10/10 Excellent

"From all the staff to all the amenities. Couldn’t be more pleased. Thank you"

Lincoln Hotel

8/10 Good

"I booked the wrong dates and there was confusion over the room type selected. The staff was super cool about it and very accommodating. (No pun intended.) Too many places these days penalize you for "using a third party" (Expedia), but the nice woman at the front desk put the 'hospitality' back in 'hospitality business' and I would stay here again just based on how awesome she was. The rooms were unique and very roomy BUT there were no coffee makers in the rooms. There was a Keurig in the lobby, but there was a line for the single cup machine and it kept running out of water. (Not a big deal.) It is a MOtel where you can park right outside your room if you request a ground floor (a tip I learned from another review). I'd stay here again and really appreciated feeling like I was a valued guest."

Town House Extended Stay Hotel Downtown

10/10 Excellent

"I really enjoyed my time here, great price for the quality and location :)"

Martha's Bed and Breakfast

10/10 Excellent

"I have stayed here previously and loved the quietness and the luxurious and well thought out decor. I like parking the car and being able to walk to restaurants and feeling safe walking through well manicured and maintained neighborhoods. As a widow I travel alone often and would re immensely a stay at Martha’s Bed and Breakfast. I will stay again as the opportunity arises ! Thank you for great memories!"

Holiday Inn Express & Suites Lincoln Downtown by IHG

10/10 Excellent

Embassy Suites Lincoln

"We chose this hotel because we wanted to stay downtown. Our daughter lives in Lincoln. The breakfast was better than we could imagine. Made to order omlets and pancakes! The number of TV showing the football game made it very enjoyable for watching the game."
