Helena is a superb hostess and we felt welcome from the start. She is a wonderful cook and her breakfasts were WOW!!! Helena was very helful with information on the area and was very... more

We stayed here as it was voted the Number 1 B&B for Niagara Falls on Tripadvisor. And we werent disappointed. Only a 10 minute walk from the falls, this lovely B&B is the perfect relaxing stay. The rooms are stunning, the setting gorgeous and the breakfast? Divine. The lady who runs the place is a real character and will sit... more

I stayed at the Lion's Head during a week-long honeymoon. My husband and I stayed two nights. After getting there, we wished we had just stayed there the whole week! Helena is very nice and knows a lot about the area. She'll even recommend places to visit, eat, etc. She made reservations for my husband and I at a local... more

This place is a must-stay! We loved the location on the gorge & you can easily walk into the falls. We loved the style & decor of the house & the room was very comfortable & clean. But what we loved most of all was Helena the owner who was a fantastic, interesting & genuinely friendly person (irish of course).... more

My wife and I have stayed at many a bed & breakfast in New England and Northeast Canada and we have to say that our stay at the Lion’s Head was excellent…top notch. It’s no wonder that it’s rated as the best b&b in Niagara Falls. First, the location can’t be beat. It’s situated right on River Road, a scenic... more

My husband and I spent are from New Jersey and we spent six wonderful nights (Oct. 14-Oct. 20, 2007) at this AMAZING B&B. Unlike the reviewer who cited a problem with making a reservation, we found the reservation experience to be a very positive one. After our initial e-mails to and from Helena (from the e-mail address on her web-site)... more

My Husband and I visited Niagara for the first time, and Helena (the owner) really made the stay incredible! Helena is an amazing chef. We stayed three nights and had three incredible breakfasts, each uniquely amazing. I’ve always been picky about eggs benedict, but now I know I shall never be able to eat it again unless she makes it,... more

Recommend to call in your reservations and not use the web site unless you want to share your room with a stranger. Web site for Lions Head B&B offers online reservations which formally confirms the reservation with a confirmation #. One would think this is a commitment. Well, think again. I made a reservation online and received an email the... more

Management response from
InnkeeperNiagara, Owner

Choosing one method only would be very difficult. Some people like the personal contact with the innkeeper and need more information and without the online system it would be hard to survive in this business. Every once in a while you take a phone booking and receive an online booking for the same room within a short period of time...

We spent one night at the Lion's Head and found it all other reviewers had mentioned: clean and well decorated, a convenient walking distance to the Falls with a delicious breakfast (dieters beware though!). Helena was very friendly and helpful with dinner recommendations. We chose Wolfgang Puck which had good food yet was pretty casual. more

The love of my life and I just returned home from a six day motorcycle trip to Niagara Falls, Canada. We decided on the spur of the moment to go, and since I had never stayed in a B & B, we thought this was the time for me to experience one. I checked several websites and found some very... more
