After seeing all the other reviews’ I had to check this place out just to see for myself. We go to Lancaster 2-3 times a year, and we've had our share of bad experiences with the typical name brand lodges and inns, so we've been looking for that diamond in the ruff. Everything about the experience was great. We only saw a couple of ...

never going back
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 07/23/09
Indoor pool was supposed to be 80 degrees, more like 60. Wood at the mini golf was rotted, hair in the drain of the tub and the door was impossible to open and management said they were packed with 4 cars in the lot

What a disaster
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 07/10/09
I had visited Lancaster Host many times in the past, all the way back to when it was American Host Farms Resort. Back then, it was the premier vacation resort in Lancaster. Now, it is like the deserted version of the Overlook Hotel in The Shining. We walked into the desolate yet clean lobby with hesitation since there was not a car in sight in ...

What an awesome Place
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 01/31/09
The place is awesome. When you walk into the door the staff greats you with a warm welcoming smile. You are treated like royallty from the moment you walk into the door and check in until you check out. Every morning when you wake up you are greeted to a complimentary newspaper outside your door to your room when you wake up. The food is just ...
My woman's group and I had our yearly retreat there and it was horrible. The hotel staff were not helpful or courteous at all. We had a hard time getting past the worn out carpeting, peeling wall paper and the cracks in the sinks. The tv's didn't work properly and 2 rooms had dirty coffee makers(with stuff still in them). The rooms we ...
The very nice marketing write up and pretty picture, do not match, at all, what it actually is. What renovation? They must have missed our room. There are alot of stairs, no ramps, no elevators. Was there for a cat show Nov 1-2 '08, and they had the nerve to charge a $25 non refundable pet fee, for cleaning they say. Not sure how they expected ...

For the Money, a Disappointment
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 08/27/08
The location was very convenient. The rooms were nice, but the halls were dirty, stained and smelly. There was only one person working at the registration desk, even when there was a sizeable line of incoming guests waiting. The cleaning staff was the biggest disappointment. Not once did we get the necessary number of washcloths/towels without ...

SMELLY!
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 08/11/08
We thought we found the perfect hotel by the website, but it was run down and had a strong mold odor. The halls were gross and the room was below average. The pool was run down and there was an AWFUL smell at the pool and in the parking lot. The breakfast was good, but did not make up for the hotel conditions. SKIP this hotel! VERY DISAPPOINTING

What's with all the negative reviews?
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 08/03/08
We just got home from a weekend in Lancaster with the kids, there were a lot of us...maybe 8 families or more in our whole group. After reading the reviews of this hotel, we were worried about the conditions. People are just awful. The hotel was great. Granted, the carpeting could be replaced, and the pool area needs some help, but the hotel ...
