5.0/10

My stay at the Cork Factory Hotel was a mixed experience. I appreciated the unique historical atmosphere and charming architectural details, but the maintenance and service left much to be desired. Overall, it had potential that wasn’t fully realized, particularly with regard to facilities and breakfast offerings.

Rooms

6.0

The room featured a stunning brick wall that added character. However, it felt a bit worn, and the furniture had seen better days. I found the lighting somewhat lacking, especially in the bathroom, where I could have used more light. The bed was fairly comfortable, but not quite to my liking.

Service

5.0

The front desk staff were friendly and helpful, but I did notice some issues with breakfast service. The staff seemed preoccupied with personal conversations instead of attending to guests. This diminished the overall dining experience, especially since breakfast was taken away promptly at 10 a.m.

Location

6.0

The hotel's location was ideal, allowing easy access to local attractions in Lancaster. However, I found the parking situation quite confusing, with signs indicating where not to park but none clarifying where hotel guests could park.

Dining

I was disappointed with the breakfast options, which were limited and did not inspire confidence in their quality. The absence of hot protein items and a lack of fresh pastries meant I chose to skip breakfast altogether, which is unfortunate for a hotel of this caliber.

Facilities

5.0

The hotel boasts a unique character as a converted factory, but I encountered notable maintenance issues, like a missing fire extinguisher in the hallway. The elevator and hallways lacked air conditioning, making them quite uncomfortable during warm days. This is something I think needs urgent attention.
