The Kindler Hotel is simply the best hotel in Lincoln, hands-down. Quite honestly, there’s not a close second. Spotlessly clean, timeless decor, super friendly/attentive staff. Just wish they weren’t so freaking expensive over game day weekends, or it would be my automatic go-to. Also wish they would be a little more accommodating for late checkouts (especially since their check-in isn’t till 4 PM), but I understand the cleaning staff has a job to do also. Despite these two minor complaints, it’s still merits of five star, simply based on it overall awesomeness.

The staff came outside to greet us, check-in was quick and efficient. The two individuals working the front desk were very personable and helpful. Elevator was secure and quiet, hallway immaculate as was the room. Bed very comfortable, large shower, even a heated bathroom floor. Snacks, drinks, including wine were available to purchase in the room. Tea and coffee maker also available. Quiet and luxurious, not one complaint. And, Lied Performing Arts Center a short walk across the street. We give the Kindler 5+++ stars.
