About Niagara Falls, NY

One of the world’s most famous natural wonders, the roaring rapids of Niagara Falls make for a breathtaking visit, with plenty of scope for adventure, attracting romantic honeymooners and active families alike. Whilst there are lots of hotels in Buffalo and beyond, there is just a small selection of great properties in the town of Niagara Falls itself, including self-catering apartments and charming traditional hotels allowing travellers to base themselves as close to the Falls as possible. Our pick of the best places to stay in Niagara Falls, NY is a classic historic inn, promising gorgeous views of Niagara Falls from its rooms and suites.

Formed more than 12,000 years ago, Niagara Falls now marks a dramatic point on the border between the United States and Canada, attracting millions of visitors each year. Hop aboard the iconic Maid of the Mist to admire Niagara’s outstanding natural beauty from below, or clamber up to the Hurricane Deck on the Cave of the Winds to feel the torrential rush and sheer power of the cascading waters. Active explorers will adore Niagara Falls State Park, where you can follow trails through 400 acres of lush landscapes, home to protected wildlife. Alternatively, hike up Niagara Gorge, take a spectacular helicopter ride over the Falls, try fishing on the Niagara River, or zip across it in a high-speed jet boat.

Beyond the Falls themselves, there’s the Aquarium of Niagara — a sure-fire family hit — the lovely Castellani Art Museum, and the almost-300-year-old Old Fort Niagara. Built by the French and later held by the British before being ceded to the United States in 1815, the Fort has a fascinating history and an excellent programme of annual events.

lluminated every night, and the setting of impressive seasonal firework shows, Niagara Falls is a spectacular destination for those looking to marvel at the sheer beauty and power of nature. With our choice of the best places to stay in Niagara Falls, NY just 500 yards away, you’ll be able to fall asleep to the sound of water rushing over the edge of the Falls, as it has for thousands of years.
