The Niagara Falls Marriott on the Falls is a separate property from the Marriott Fallsview Hotel and Spa elsewhere on this site, and it earns its name with a location and a view that put the Horseshoe Falls at the center of the stay. The tower rises 31 floors on Fallsview Boulevard, with 404 rooms in a mix of fallsview, water-view and city-view categories. Rooms and public areas face the Canadian Horseshoe Falls, and an outdoor terrace and observation deck give guests who are not in a fallsview room a place to enjoy the sight. Queen Victoria Park is about a one-minute walk, the Niagara Falls Tower Observatory and the Convention Centre are about three minutes on foot, the Burning Springs spa and thermal pools are about three minutes away, and Fallsview Casino is about eight minutes. The hotel has an indoor heated pool with an adjacent whirlpool, a twenty-four-hour fitness center, a garden and meeting space. For dining, it offers Milestones on the Falls for lunch and dinner, a Marriott cafe for breakfast, a Starbucks and a lobby lounge and bar. Parking is a daily fee, on the order of fifty Canadian dollars for self-parking, with valet at a higher rate and an electric-vehicle charging station on site. Family trips, couples and business groups all use it, and it suits anyone who wants to see the falls from the window rather than a long walk.
The view
The Fallsview district exists because of the Horseshoe Falls, and a high floor with a direct falls view is the whole point of staying here. At night the falls are illuminated in color and, on many nights in season, fireworks light the sky, which you can watch from your room or from the observation deck.
If the view matters to you, book a fallsview category rather than city view, and request a higher floor, because lower rooms may look over other buildings. The terrace and observation deck are worth using even if your own room is not on the falls side.
Living in it
The pool and whirlpool are a good rest after a day of walking, and the fitness center is open around the clock. Breakfast at the cafe is a buffet at a set price, which suits families, while Milestones on the Falls is the dinner option with a view.
Because this is a large tower hotel with meeting space, it is popular for conferences, and the lobby can be busy at check-in times. Parking is charged separately, so budget for it if you are driving, and note the height restrictions in the garage if you have a tall vehicle.
Base math
From here, Queen Victoria Park and the Table Rock area are close for boats and the Journey Behind the Falls, and the Niagara Falls Tower and the Clifton Hill area are a short walk. The Power Station, the Niagara Parks gardens and the Niagara Parkway are a drive or shuttle away, and the airport on the American side is about a half-hour drive. For a stay that puts the Horseshoe in the window with a resort-style pool and good dining on site, this is among the strongest choices on Fallsview Boulevard; if budget is the priority, compare rates on city-view rooms or consider the American side.
