Very welcoming & comfortable. Lovely breakfastWe booked the Lancaster Lodge to start our cycle tour, and it was so good, we also booked it for the last night before we caught the train home. Reception staff on both occasions were very helpful and welcoming. Although there is no formal cycle parking, our bikes spent both stays safely locked in the meeting room among the flip charts and desks. The rooms on both occasions were at the back of the lodge: although the building is separated from the road in front by a canal, we perferred the quieter back. The back currently (2009) faces a building site, but there was no work during the evening or morning. The rooms were modern, clean and very comfortable. TV was a bit small and no biscuits on the tea tray, but those are the only downsides I can think of. No restaruant on site, but the lodge is within easy walking distance of the city centre with a fine range of spots to suit all tastes and pockets. Breakfasts were great: plenty to fuel hungry cyclists all the way to Kinsale, and delicious too. All in all, a great place to stop over. Would certainly stay again.

Great location, would recommend. Full Irish could have been better but good variety on the menu. Room was nice though and parking very handy.

Cleanliness and good serviceI really enjoyed my stay in the Lancaster Lodge. The room and indeed the entire hotel were spotless and the staff very polite and friendly. The Location is fantastic and the fact that there was ample on-site parking made all the difference. The best part of my stay has to have been the breakfast. The choice and presentation was second to none. I will definitely be staying again.

Lancaster Lodge This is a very nice, well run hotel. It is situated within close walking distance to the centre of Cork and very close to UCC.

Very Nice Guest House

Staff were friendly and helpful. The guesthouse is clean and comfortable. Rooms were large and comfortable. Having easy internet access was a real bonus. Breakfast was generous and varied. The location - close to the city centre - is ideal for shopping or visiting places of interest in Cork. We enjoyed our stay and would return to the Lancaster Lodge.

Walls a bit thin. Only a few mins walk to city centre

We found the Hotel easy to get to, just a five minute walk from the main shopping street and bus stop for the Cork City tour. The staff were really friendly and helpful and the food excellent. We really enjoyed our stay and the only disappointment was that it wasn't for longer than the two nights.

This hotel had been given both a 4* and 5* star rating, although how I don't know. The rating had influenced my choice of hotel. No bar facility or evening meals. A vegan breakfast had been requested when making the reservation, but this was not passed on to the kitchen staff until the Sunday morning by which time it was too late. They did offer to go out and buy soya milk, but again this was too late to do so. Apologies were made, but I had to request a deduction for the cost of breakfast. This was not corthcoming on there part. The cost of one breakfast was eventually deducted from the bill when a request was made to the owner of the hotel. The hotel seemed to think that this would make up for not having had breakfast! By way of an explanation the Duty Manager said that they did not understanding what vegan meant. I would suggest that as they are in the hospitality business it is in there own interest to fully understand the different requirements of hotel guests, whether omnivors, vegetarians, vegans, or celiac.

This was the fourth time we have stayed at Lancaster Lodge, and although I prefer a 'traditional' kind of holel (old fashioned architecture and preferably stuffed with antiques!) this hotel is spot on for service and friendliness. This time I forgot my mobile phone charger and they not only found me one to use, but allowed me to take it away on our outward journey and return it when passing through Cork 2 weeks later!A big consideration if you are taking a car into Cork is that the hotel is just a few minutes from St Patricks Street and the bright lights, and you can leave your car with peace of mind in the hotel car park and walk everwhere. Not many hotels in the city have their own car parking, (we know, we've checked them all!), you may have to leave your car in a public car park which might not be that close. The Lancaster's car park is covered by CCTV and is able to accommodate larger vehicles - we often take our Transporter which is too high to fit under the barrier in other car parks.Breakfasts are very good, with a huge choice of cereals and fruit, croissants, juices etc. on a help yourself buffet and good scrambled eggs and smoked salmon. Oh, and the showers are pretty much the best we have come across. We are always made to feel very welcome

Excellent central location, yet far enough away from noisy streets. Very clean good sized room, excellent service & breakfast.

Lovely stay here, perfect location for city centre. Located at end of Washington Street / start of Western road - Ideal for bars/clubs and few minute walk from St.Patricks Street and shopping / cafes / restaurants.Room was clean, comfortable, and breakfast in the morning was lovely. Would definitely stay here again.1 minute away from Jurys Hotel, where the Airport shuttle drops/picks you up. Ideal

No restaurant, No bar, no beureu de chage facility, no room service - it was basically a guest house that charges way to much for the (lack of) services it provides. I would not stay there and I would not recomend anyone else to either - particularly for the money. Breakfast was OK but it just raised the question why they don't have the kitchen open for dinner. Poor show all round really.

Good location and facilities for a stay in Cork city.

	Date of Stay: September, 2008
Excellent breakfasts, wide choice and freshly cooked. All staff were friendly, helpful and efficient. Easy walk into Cork centre.The only mild negative was the tired grouting on the shower cubicle and the lack of a bar on a day of heavy winds and torrential rain! But that's nitpicking and I would definitely recommend Lancaster Lodge.

We stayed in cork for a couple of nights midweek. The weather was not the greatest but the city was fantastic. The hotel location was very central & there was a fantastic vegetarian restaurant accross the road. The breakfast menu was very extensive & hot which is not alway the case in other hotels that i have stayed. I would use this hotel again.

Breakfst very good, rooms spotless, friendly atmosphere and good location.However at back of Hotel new building being erected and I was once woken at 07:30am by a siren from a mobile crane.Advise a call to Hotel before booking..Excellent rate via Laterooms

The hotel was very nice inside, unfortunately the standard of C/service was poor and they actually charged me twice for the room on paying on exit on my debit card, and were not very helpful when I tried to get this refunded.

Nice hotel, good quality rooms and fairly central location

	Date of Stay: July, 2008
The hotel is well located within walking distance of the city centre, has parking and everything except tea & coffee in the rooms. Very comfortable and excellent breakfast with pleasant and helpful staff.
