Well located property about 8 minutes walk to the middle of Cork. Large room appears recently renovated to good standard. Some other areas eg hallway carpets look like they are yet be upgraded. Note the small fridge turns off when you leave the room/ remove your keycard - this is a design flaw. Some larger glasses and coffee cups in the room would be better. Friendly and efficient staff. Buffet breakfast was good.

It is a very good place to stay you are in walking distance of things but sometimes you need a taxi and the front desk will get it for you unless they forget to call them like they did to me and I missed my tour and I didn’t get anything back so I lost a lot of money

There is no a/c so it was very warm in the room. Windows opened fairly wide & there was a fan in the room. 5 - 10 min. walk to some very good restaurants.

My wife and I stayed at 3 supposedly "4-Star" hotels in 2 weeks. The Lancaster Lodge was the only one of the three that really measured up to that designation. Everything was great! The full Irish breakfast had a wide variety of offerings, and everything we tried was well prepared and promptly served. The entire staff was attentive and courteous. The facility was small, intimate, well-maintained, and beautiful! The city center was only blocks away. I only wish we were planning a return visit sometime soon.
