Anyone done a package deal there? I am looking at heading over there this weekend for a couple of nights with the girlfriend. I have been searching around and have found a couple of really cool things but I just thought that I would throw this out there and see what comes back

I have been looking around at stuff like this: http://http://nfhd.niagarafallshotel...es/#packagetop
(it is near the bottom sightseeing package for two I think)

But would like to get the prices down a bit more...any ideas?

I have tried expedia.ca and travelocity.ca and they come back with about the same stuff so anything new would be appreciated

We stayed at a B&B near Port Dalhousie and did a bit of a vineyard tour. The B&B's are much nicer for a getaway with the SO than a hotel IMO.

I have been looking into those more and more and I think that being "annomous" in a larger hotel may not be such a bad thing either

I am still considering the B&B's though, there are just sooo many to choose from

Well, on the Canadian side it's pretty well geared up for tourism. The American Side is pretty much a dying city except for the Casino trying to bring business back in. You can find plenty to do on Clifton Hill. Couldn't tell you where to stay though since I grwew up in Buffalo and we just had to drive 20 minutes to get there when ever we went. have fun.

Canada side for shizzle, no questions. As for the hotel, drop the $$ at the Fallsview Marriott. Confirm, re-confirm, and double confirm on the way there. Make sure you get a view OF the falls, specially if you're not considering leaving the room much. But if you do, be sure to take a ride on the whirlpool jetboats (I rode the covered one since I didn't feel like swimming in October) www.whirlpooljet.com is their url. Pricey but a real fun trip, you'll have a new respect for pressure rapids and what Class 5 means even though it's not your elbows doing the work

Niagara

If you want to do something besides wax museums Niagra-on-the-lake is a nice heritage spot. Lots of interesting stores, buildings and restaurants. Less than half an hour away. You can search it up to get a better idea.

I just got back from Niagara On the Lake. Beautiful town... Too many idiot drivers there. (Half with American plates too... ). Over 8 hours on my new DRZ400SM with a buddy and his dad.

Get there, pull down a side street to park, and walk the rest of it. Don't forget to visit at least one winery on the way there and on the way home.

Agreed. I will NEVER stay in a hotel again if i have a choice. B&B are SSSSOOOO much nicer and cost roughly the same, usually alittle more, but well worth it. look at bedandbreakfast.com

must have been a harsh ride with 3 ppl on one bike.

You've seen pics of 12 people on a scooter from India... 3 is easy!!!!

My buddy has a GS500 and his dad has an old '78 CB750. Sadly; I had the slowest bike of the bunch.

I visited when I was 7 or 8 and remember wondering why the room we were in had a RED heart shaped tub. I think it was at the Holiday Inn. It was along time ago.

Did you ever find out the reason for that funny tub?
