Pleasant - 3.0 out of 5

Harriet L, Omaha, visiting 1867 Bar Lincoln Thu, 12 December 2024

Seems like they just kept adding on more and more charges. It ended up costing over $200 and was barely in the room. Won't stay there again.

Liked: Clean and Breakfast.
Disliked: Expensive.

Wonderful hotel and wonderful staff!

Liked: Clean rooms, great location, friendly staff, comfortable beds
Disliked: We had a room facing the street and it was very noisy from the traffic and sirens but that can’t be helped. Next time I would request a room on opposite side.
