Niagara Falls hotel help

Hi all

I am considering a couple of hotels for a one-night two day trip to Niagara Falls next summer. I have done a lot of research here and at TripAdvisor, and it looks like the Marriott Fallsview and Sheraton on the Falls are both well-regarded. Another well-liked hotel is the Ramada Plaza Fallsview, which I think is part of the Konica Minolta tower.

My questions are:

1. Which hotel is the nicest (ie the best rooms and view)?
2. Which hotel is best located?
3. Which one of these hotels would you stay in, and why?

Many thanks

Grant

Gratn - I don't know those hotels, but just be sure to stay in Canada, not New York State. What are you going to do for two days there? Do you have an itinerary? It would be interesting to know. I have never known what to do there when I go - except to see other cities, too. thanks and have a great trip!

Hi Cabo

We are planning on just doing the major tourist sites - Maid on the Mist, the Journey Behind the Falls etc. We will definitely stay on the Canadian side.

I would recommend Michael's Inn on the canadian side - it's great and next store to Planet HOllywood and a block away from the action and you can get rooms with a view.

Hi Gratn
I vote for Sheraton on the Falls because of location, location, location. You can walk right across the street to Maid of the Mist, Horseshoe Falls is close by and the views are wonderful. The Falls are lighted at night and you can get a balcony room that will face both American and Horseshoe Falls. Although staying on the Canadian side is much better, be sure and go to Goat Island on the American side for some very up close and personal views.

Here's another huge recommendation for Sheraton On The Falls (not to be confused with the other Sheraton). Definitely the best location on the Canadian side.
