The Lancaster Arts Hotel is a boutique hotel located in Lancaster, Pennsylvania.

It is a contributing property to the Harrisburg Avenue Tobacco Historic District, which is listed on the National Register of Historic Places, and is a member of Historic Hotels of America, the official program of the National Trust for Historic Preservation.
The building that now houses the Lancaster Arts Hotel was originally constructed in 1881 as a tobacco warehouse. Developed by Arnold Falk, a New York-based entrepreneur, the warehouse was built to support Lancaster's burgeoning tobacco industry. The structure served this purpose until 1945, after which it was repurposed to house a paper and twine business, as well as an electronics company. In 2006, the warehouse was redeveloped into a boutique hotel, maintaining many of its historic architectural features.
The hotel preserves elements of its industrial past, including exposed brick walls, wooden beams, and original hardwood flooring, while incorporating modern boutique luxury elements. The interior design blends historic preservation with contemporary art, featuring a curated collection of paintings, sculptures, and mixed media from local and regional artists.
The Lancaster Arts Hotel Gallery is a focal point of the property, showcasing over 260 original pieces by 36 local artists working in 15 different mediums. The gallery includes a tribute to Blanche Nevin, a Lancaster-born sculptor best known for her statue of Peter Muhlenberg in the National Statuary Hall Collection at the U.S. Capitol Building. Another space within the hotel highlights works inspired by Charles Demuth, a renowned American modernist painter and Lancaster native. Additionally, past exhibitions have included works by Warren Rohrer and David Brumbach.
