Frequently I receive e-mail
regarding which is the "best hotel" in Niagara Falls. This is a difficult
question to answer because a lot of different criteria comes in to question.
Most people consider the view to be the most important aspect. The Marriott &
Embassy Suites offer a truly amazing view of the Canadian "Horseshoe" Falls
during daylight hours. At night, the American Falls illumination is much
more impressive. Most of the light shined on the Horseshoe Falls is dissipated
in the mist. This is why you never see postcards of the Horseshoe Falls at
night. The Sheraton on the Falls & Brock hotel are directly opposite the
American Falls and the view at night is great. We found the best compromise
between the two is the Niagara Falls Hilton.
I've spent the night in every
Fallsview Hotel and personally I prefer the Embassy Suites Junior Presidential
Suites. They are located on the top floors of the Hotel. It's the tallest hotel
and on a clear night you get one of the most spectacular panoramic views of not
only the Falls but the surrounding area as well.
When considering room quality
and hotel amenities, Embassy and Hilton have spacious rooms and are the two
newest hotels. Marriott has the best fine dining, but the Hilton's Watermark
restaurant has the view bar none.
Yes it does rain in Niagara
Falls and nothing could be worse than being cooped up in a hotel room all day
with kids. For this reason I give Hilton and Sheraton on the Falls high marks for their indoor splash
parks.

I hope you find this
information helpful. Please feel free as always to send comments directly to me.
Best regards & have a pleasant
stay in Niagara,
