Michael, New York

Disliked: Amenities
I stayed for one night at the Lancaster Arts Hotel on my way to holiday in West Virginia from New York. I was attracted to the tasteful decor in the deluxe room I selected and to the bar and breakfast offered on site. I arrived in a downpour of rain and was glad to part in a covered lot, but less glad to then have to walk a distance long enough to get drenched by the rain. That said, I was eager to get to my room and I was given a room on the second floor of what looks like the newest part of the hotel over the parking garage. This room looked nothing like the room in the picture: no exposed brick, no hardwood floors, furnishings below expectations. The receptionist granted my request to move rooms and placed me in a room on the fourth floor by the elevator. This room did have exposed brick, but still had wall-to-wall carpeting that made the room look like a highway hotel chain. The furnishings were odd, as was the lighting. The bar had a good selection, though the bartender was distracted by conversation and was not attentive. The breakfast was very poor. I am always especially disappointed when a hotel located in or near agriculture supplies a breakfast with cellophane-wrapped apples and other Sysco-looking options. I had coffee and a snack at the cafe nearby, which was good. I chose this hotel as an alternative to cheaper options by the interstate and did not find that this hotel was worth the added cost. I would not recommend it.

Cool artsy hotel, loved the vibe. A mile from the convention center, easy drive. Make sure you park in their parking lot, I pulled in too soon and had to turn around, no biggy. Loved the covered parking area. They have luggage carts easily available, I didn't see bell hops. Staff is super helpful and kind. Breakfast is self serve and loved the pancake machine, awesome! The bed was firm, I prefer a softer one but the pillows were super fluffy! Lots of TV Channels too. The toiletries smell like orange, it's so lovely. They do use wall dispensers, make sure you check what comes out. Mine were mixed up, they accidentally put the wrong products in the dispensers. so ended up using hand soap instead of conditioner, oops, no one is perfect. Overall great stay!

This hotel went above and beyond to make our stay enjoyable. From an upgraded room to the incredibly helpful staff, we really appreciated the attention to detail this hotel offers. Having laundry onsite would have been helpful and having a way to buy bottled water, soda, or other toiletries would have also been really nice. Otherwise, the hotel was beautifully decorated, comfortable, spacious, and clean. Highly recommend!

Very cool hotel in a restored warehouse building near F&M. Lots of exposed brick and modern features. Breakfast included and there is a bar as well. A great value as well, half the price of the hotels around the convention center and it is only a mile away.
