The Beco Take
Cork Factory Hotel is what happens when a city decides its industrial past is worth preserving rather than paving over. The exposed brick and timber beams of the 19th-century Armstrong Cork Company buildings are still fully present — not as a theme, but as the building itself. Ninety-three rooms sit inside a working mixed-use community of apartments, shops, and a restaurant, which means the street outside feels like a neighborhood, not a hotel drop-off.
