Sunday evening of June 9, 2023 we rolled into Niagara Falls, Ontario and made our way to our base station for the next two nights, the Niagara Falls Fallsview Best Western. The hotel had been recommended to us by a friend at the dog park in Louisville, who told us how dog friendly the hotel was. They didn’t overstate it. While writing this article, I saw a site that lists the top 12 pet friendly hotels in the world and the Fallsview Best Western was on the list.
In the entrance to the hotel and across from the registration desk was a black board with the names of the dogs staying at the hotel and there was Susie’s name with the dot in the letter “I” in her name as a dog paw. In front of the board were two big water bowls. On the desk there were containers laden with dog biscuits at each end of the counter.
When we checked in, Susie was given a bag of doggie gifts that included a treat to chew on, a small water bowl and bottle combination, a supply of poopy bags and a ball. Our assigned room was on the first floor at the back of the hotel, but very close to a grassy area for Susie’s walks.
The room was large and very comfortable. Susie as usual made herself right at home and enjoyed sprawling on the carpet and chewing her treat.
The Wifi connection was excellent and it was nice to be able to settle in and stay somewhere for a couple of nights without having to shuffle luggage for a day.
The hotel restaurant was very good and the location excellent. We were only a few blocks away from the Falls, although it was downhill all the way to the Falls, but a pretty steep climb to get back. The best bet is to buy the 2-day bus (WEGO) pass that will take you all around the Falls area.
The hotel will keep an eye on your pet when you go out, and will even walk the dog if so desired. These amenities are not free however as there is a charge of $25 per day for your pet, but considering the level of the amenities this is a reasonable fee.
A huge casino, the Fallsview Casino, is across the street from the hotel as well as a wide range of restaurants with a variety of cuisines in the nearby area. I took advantage of the casino Grand Buffet on Monday night and was quite pleased with the quality and offerings available.
Lots of things to see and do – more will be covered in other articles in this series.
We would definitely return for another stay if the situation presents itself.
