What guests think

Cork Factory Hotel is a distinctive converted factory in Lancaster that guests praise for spacious rooms, friendly staff, and character, though recurring drawbacks include noise from floors and walls, occasional maintenance issues, and inconsistent housekeeping.

Many like the on site Cork & Cap restaurant and bar for dinner, but hours can be limited and breakfast is not offered, with lobby coffee and nearby options filling the gap. Rooms are often large with comfortable beds and appealing industrial decor, while several guests mention dim lighting, small or dated TVs, and occasionally loud HVAC. Cleanliness is generally praised, though a minority reported key card hassles or rooms needing minor updates. Overall, expect a unique, historic experience at Cork Factory Hotel with comfort and character, but fewer amenities and variable quiet.

Enjoyed our stay at the historic Cork Factory Hotel. It was very quant and the staff was friendly. My husband used the small gym. We got coffee in the lobby in the mornings. The room was very spacious with a large living room, large bedroom, and large bathroom. Parking was in a safe and secluded location in the middle of the cork factory buildings. Bed was pretty comfortable. Heard the upstairs room walking around a little bit because of the age of the building but did not impact our stay. There's also a small store to buy snacks in the lobby.

This property has multiple buildings housing rooms. If weather is inclement getting from check-in to room my be difficult. There is no breakfast service in the restaurant which could be inconvenient. No real closet in the room just short hanger "boxes". The HVAC system was so loud it needed to be switched off for proper sleep as there was no fan speed settings.

Check in was relatively normal, easy, but all the parking was marked no hotel parking except for 2 small lines right at the lobby building. We had to make another trip in to ask where to park. We were told to ignore the signs and park anywhere. That would have been helpful at check-in. There are no signs leading to the hotel rooms. We got a vague wave 'that way' and had to figure it out. Having said that, once we got parked and found the room, it was more than sufficient, clean, comfortable. The hotel is about 15-20 minutes from the places we were heading this past weekend (Berlin, kitchen kettle, furniture stores). It has clearly become quite the event place as there were weddings both Fri & Sat which added noise and cars, full restaurant, very busy place.

Hotel was unique and has potential to be very nice. But wasn't. Check-in staff was friendly. Stayed for three nights for work. Came back first night to find bed not made and trash left in the can. Second night parts of bedding were left on the floor but trash was taken. Bathroom was not clean when I arrived or when I left. Big stain in hall way just leaves you feeling dirty. Was hoping for more.

Reception staff were fantastic! Housekeeping staff on the other hand need retraining. The bathroom floor did not look as though it had been properly cleaned in a long time. Hair clips and other stuff on the floor from previous guests and behind the toilet was grubby. We also did not have our room serviced while we were there. Not good enough!

Our room was very comfortable, except for the fact that the hotel is a remodel of an old distillery, and in an effort to keep the industrial feel and vibe, the rooms aren't well insulated. We recommend requesting the top floor so you can't hear every step in the room above yours.

We loved our stay here. The rooms are very spacious and the suite we booked had a nice-sized living room, dining area, and kitchenette that was separate from the bedroom. The rooms are sparsley decorated and they stick with the industrial theme, but all the furntiure in them including the bed was very comofrtable. Great location with easy parking, and an outsanding resturant on site.

We had some unique experiences because we had a birds nest on the metal roof above our 4th floor room. So the family of birds was incredibly loud. The television was so small. We travel for work and sports a lot. I haven’t seen a tv this small in forever. The bathroom was clean but needs updating. The restaurant is not open for breakfast which was really inconvenient. I don’t have a problem paying for a sit down breakfast. The staff was friendly. The accommodations were fine but not great and will probably look for something downtown next time with breakfast option.

We like this hotel, it’s newly appointed, centrally located, clean, and the staff was helpful. However, the third floor rooms have open rafters and you can hear every squeaky step the fourth floor occupants take. Difficult to sleep, early morning too. Apparently, management is aware but has yet to rectify the problem.

Great historic hotel with a warm inviting ambience. No breakfast even though there is a restaurant on the premises. Offered great coffee in the morning. Didn’t enjoy getting in my car to get breakfast. Nothing is within walking distance. Would like to see less use of plastic water bottles and cups. Air conditioning is very loud when it comes on in the room.

Everything about our stay was great. There were several wedding parties there and I was there for a swim meet. The staff made sure that we were in a quiet area so my son could sleep. We decided to add a night and Rosetta at the front desk was so kind and called us at 7am to let us know that over the night a guest canceled so we were able to stay in our room. She went above and beyond from check to warm helps as we entered the building. We will definitely be staying there again!!

Property is clean and parking is great. Was able to park right outside my room window. Check in staff was a bit preoccupied and somewhat melancholy from a service standpoint. Also forgot to properly authorize my room keys so I ended up having to make a trip back to the front desk. No big deal but still impacts the overall gist of the service factor. Night shift desk service was much more engaged and helpful. Overall a pretty nice stay. Was meeting some friends at a local restaurant but next time I’ll definitely check out the in hotel restaurant, which got rave reviews from my local friends.

Room were clean and well-designed. That said there seems to be little insulation between rooms so they’re noisy, and our bathroom door didn’t shut all the way.

Excellent restaurant on site and very good pub across the street for dinner, although lacking for breakfast. Overall room was clean and there were enough towels for our 3 night stay, however, housekeeping should be more attentive as to emptying garbage daily. They did respond quickly to any request we had as did the front desk…would definitely stay there again.

It has a lovely restaurant on site for dinner…my only suggestion is to also have breakfast available as that is our only negative.
