“Great value!”

1/1 found this review helpful

We booked this hotel last minute, but we liked the standard and price. Nice to be out of season sometimes.. It was very easy to find when crossing the brigde. I was a bit worried once I saw it though. It seemed old and run down from the outside. And entering the reception from under a garage-like area was not the ideal thing, but things look better when we entered the lobby.

Friendly staff was of great help. Lobby gave a good impression once inside. We wanted to upgrade a room to a fallsview which was no problem for an extra 30 dollars. Not too bad, but the room was only 50 to begin with. And once we saw what was considered a view of the falls, it was the worst spent money ever. If we leant out from the terrace we could barely see the American Falls through the pillars of the Rainbow Bridge. My own room faced the parking lot quite low down, but room itself seemed to be a notch up from the fallsview room.

If I should say anything bad about the hotel, it must be this silly man selling bus trips in by the elevators in the lobby. I wonder what he was on.. He seemed nice enough at first, but then he just went overboard with incoherent stories about his family's origin and Danish tourists visiting some weeks before us. It was really annoying after 6 hours on the throughway in NY. It took us nearly 15 mins to get away from him. We are probably just too nice..

Also, the breakfast is good! Buffet style egg, bacon, toast and pancakes with maple syrup (why all these sweet things for breakfast in America!!) at an acceptable price.

The hotel is very recommendable!

“Staw Away - fraudulent charges”

Michael's Inn By The Falls

14 Apr 2008

I have stayed at this Hotel many times with pleasant experiences.
However, the last time I stayed I was shocked to find an additional charge of $250 on my credit card the next day. I called the manger to resolve what I thought was simple mistake. I knew something was wrong when calls to the manager went unanswered. After almost a week the manager responded stating that cigarette butts had been found and I was charged for smoking fee. Needless to say I was shocked as I never smoked in this room. Cigarettes in a garbage can? I guess in their mind it isn't possible to smoke outside, put the cigarette butt in your pocket and throw it out. I protested and would rather have my credit card deal with this irrational manager.
I overlooked the broken TV as I brought my laptop and the missing smoke detector but this is to much

Management Response
MIBTF, Hotel manager
(Management representative)
24 Apr 2008
We pride ourselves on making sure our Non Smoking rooms stay Non Smoking. It is against Ontario Health bi-law to smoke in a non smoking room or on its balcony (2 walls and a window)

It states on the registration card of this policy which all guests sign when they come in. Our rooms are cleaned daily to be sure this policy is kept in place.

Many hotels in Ontario have this policy now.

We are sorry if this guest did not agree with our policy.

This hotel is located on a quiet street at a very convenient location, within walking distance to Casino Niagara and Clifton Hill. Free parking is available at hotel level and more parking on a hill right behind it.

Some renovation may be needed (just the hallway and bathroom), however, the rooms are decent with nice wood furnitures.

It does have some sort of tobacco smell along the hallway, but not in the rooms.

For the price and convenient location I would definitely stay again at this hotel.

“We were very impressed!!”

Michael's Inn By The Falls

14 Mar 2008
1/1 found this review helpful

We loved Michael's Inn! It was in an ideal location, being only a block from the Rainbow Bridge, a block from Casino Niagara and two blocks to fun-filled Clifton Hill.
The staff were very friendly and courteous and every area of the inn was clean and tastefully decorated.
We were so impressed with our room which had two queen-size beds and had a balcony with a view of Niagara Falls, the Niagara River and Rainbow Bridge. It was spotless and the beds were very comfortable.
The pool and hot tub were really well-kept and we liked the fact that the hot tub was actually hot!
We plan on returning here every year...trust me, you will not be disappointed!
