I had a good stay at The Lancaster Hotel. The staff, especially Alex at the front desk was very helpful and attentive! They offered amazing service from the door to your hotel room and it was a great experience. One downside is that if you’re a light sleeper like me, the rooms aren’t sound proof so you can hear your neighbors and those in the hallway. Other than that, I had a great time.

100% worth it- will stay here again

This was a slight splurge and worth every penny! The location was ideal and the lobby and rooms were luxurious and comfortable enough to work from. The decor was impeccable throughout. I enjoyed the included breakfast and also chose to have lunch in their ground level restaurant, which was fantastic. 5 stars all around!
