By the Numbers
Because Niagara Falls is such a big tourist attraction, every major hotel chain has a location there. Well more than 50 hotels and motels dot the area.
Magnificent Views
The hotels within 100 yards of the falls have the best view. If you can't get that close, opt for hotels that are taller. Request a room on a high floor or with a view.
Reservations
Almost all of the hotels in Niagara Falls take online bookings or you may call directly; telephone numbers can be found on the hotel website.
Planning Ahead
Even though Niagara Falls offers many hotels, follow the traveler's motto: better safe than sorry. To get the kind of room and location you want, it's best to reserve ahead.
Costs
A simple room (one room, queen size bed and a bathroom) can run anywhere from $50 to $400 a night based on location. Better views and bigger rooms increase the price.
