Merry Christmas!
Historic building with a lovely hotel and nice restaurant. Good location and beautiful property. Not sure what my VIP amenity was with the hotel, but the evening service (turndown, maybe for the amenity?) included a delivery of a rose and a couple chocolates for my wife and I. Would higly recommend!

Favorite Lancaster Hotel
This is my favorite hotel in Lancaster mostly due to the attention to details. The first thing you’ll notice is the subtle fragrance which reminds me of a spa. After our 3rd visit I finally asked the name. (It’s Australian Coast) The elevator ride up to your room showcases sketches by some of the guests as they provide sketchpads and pencil in each room. Most of the rooms are in the original part of the old factory building and newer rooms are over the small parking garage. Free parking in the city! Both types of rooms are lovely but it is nice to enter your room and see a brick wall and wide plank wooden floors. There are fluffy robes, real glass lowball and wine glasses plus corkscrew. We always request a small fridge. Artwork on walls and turndown service with chocolate and a rose are special touches not to mention a magnifying mirror and decent lighting for applying makeup. Also provided was mouthwash and a separate cloth for makeup removal. Basic breakfast items are provided plus if you sleep in and miss that, there’s a great donut shop located just outside the parking garage. We haven’t eaten in the restaurant but the bar is a fantastic place to wind down after a fun day. If the weather is nice it’s a doable walk downtown to Central Market, unique shops and restaurants of numerous cuisines.

Hotels can blend together, even nice ones. This one doesn’t. Yes, it has beautiful rooms and attentive staff happy to go above-and-beyond, but the hotel itself is respectful of the beauty of creativity and inspires it in their guests. A departure from the same old same old…and I’m leaving with a long stem rose and memories of a fantastic stay.

I have stayed at Lancaster Arts several times and each has been perfect for me... pleasant and artful spaces and rooms, friendly staff, clean, convenient location and accessible by car or with a reasonable walk from the train station. I would give the included breakfast 4 out of 5 stars - quite good by American standards. I am vegetarian and the restaurant is not an option for me, but there is a tavern and a Thai restaurant nearby. I enjoy seeing the repurposed interiors - and exterior. I think it is great value.

My new favorite hotel, anywhere. The whole vibe, service, character of design with heavy art influence was a breath of fresh air. Cool pub next door, TheFridge, for casual option. Convenient easy parking was a plus for such a nice hotel too.
