We're going to Niagara Falls. Is it better to get a hotel on the US or Canadian side? |
Travel Info I've been to Niagara Falls before. We're not going to go to the casinos because we have two small children. We're going to Marineland on Saturday and then driving to Toronto. Do we stay on the US side Friday night and cross at the Rainbow Bridge Sat. morning? Or cross at the Peace Bridge Friday afternoon/evening and stay on the Canadian side. My two concerns are 1) Don't want to wait in a long line at the border 2) Inexpensive hotel. I already have a reservation at a hotel on the NY side but I can change it. Travel Tips stay at candian side then you don't have to wait in line before going to any destination. If you get to wait in line the day before ou can relax afterwards when you get to the hotel. Well the further away you stay from the falls the cheaper it might be..check triprewards.com out to find a hotel near the area you'd liek to stay. Others My pick is the Canada side and you might save money too due to the exchange rate. Well, see which place is cheaper. Im sure the US side since that side sucks when it comes to seeing the Falls. Maybe with the American dollar a lil strong than the Canadian dollar, you might get a price and you wont have to commute to go over to Canada to see the Falls. It's probably not going to be easy to find an inexpensive hotel for a Friday night in Canada. If you already have one booked in NY just stay there and get up early Saturday morning. You never know how busy the bridge will be. Sometimes it takes ten minutes other times an hour. Good luck and have fun. I would stay at Niagara on the Lake , it's a beautiful town near the falls on the Canadian side. If you want falls views from the hotel, ther's no use staying on the US side. Canada side is a must, and I recommend Hilton on Fallsview Blvd. It can be expensive, but really worth the money. Try taking the upper floors, 30th floor and up. There's also a nice cozy German restaurant behind the hotel where you can have good breakfast for low prices. Canadian. There's much more to do and the hotels are closer. Be aware, the Rainbow Bridge is usually PACKED. It's the most used crossing point. We always use the Queenston bridge off I-190 in NY and the 405 in Canada. That a quiet crossing point. |
