a good location close to many restaurants

good size room and pretty quiet

Our Family Experience was Great

We booked 2 adjoining rooms for us and our teens. The staff was very friendly and helpful - when kids accidentally locked themselves out of their room, maintenance took care of it within minutes. The kids loved the pool. We found the pool and whirlpool a little chaotic because others weren't supervising their younger kids, but that's not the fault of the hotel... Hotel was in walking distance... more

Not a nice stay

Hot tub was so hot it would burn you. Pool was ice cold. 2 elevaters were broken. Trying to get down stairs with 3 little kids was not easy

It was good.

Awesome Location!

We are a family of 5 and had requested a roll away bed. When we arrived they informed us that they upgraded our room to a pull out couch room. My daughter loved having a big bed to herself. We also had a fridge and microwave which was very handy! We also noticed the extra coffee, and tea, as well as extra soaps and shampoos and towels!!! We felt very pampered! They really prepared the room for... more

Good location

Good location, good price Staff was friendly Pool was ok

Rejected my expedia reservation

This hotel shows as pet friendly, on their website ahows pet friendly, shows fee of $30/night. I called and confirmed they are pet friendly. I arrived at the hotel after driving 8 hours to find out that they have a 25lbs limit and only take small dogs, when i even specifically put in the notes that I had a medium sized dog. They said I couldn't stay and that they couldn't make an exception and... more

Very close to the falls

That was great, the hotel is really close to the falls. You don't need the car to go to the main attractions. It doesn't have a cafeteria but there are several restaurants very close (Denny's is just in front of the hotel).

Great location, close to everything

Close to the falls, Clifton Hill attractions and the casino, we were able to park our car for the weekend and walk to everything.

Close to attractions

Nice clean hotel, great staff. good price. close to attractions.

Where's the Coffee?

The hotel was fine but would it kill them to have coffee bar in the lobt? The room coffee passed as ok instant coffee. There is no way a coffee bar with decaf. and Reg. Coffee with 3 to 4 different creamers and a few packets of hot cchocolate would break their budget and it would go a long way to making their guest happyer.

Decent hotel located next to niagara attractions

The hojo is a decent hotel. It provides all of the essentials. Also, its located next to the falls and all of the attractions, which is convienient. Parking costs $10 a day, exceptionally cheap compared to other places. Tip: Bring your own pillows. I personally found the hotels' pillows to be uncomfortable.

Good Value - Good Experience

Booked through expedia.................. Front desk clerk remarked about our good room rate. Front desk was having issues with computers on check in - frustrating for them, had to come back down to desk as card key didn't work. Those were the only glitches. Good value for the money. We did Niagara Wine Tour - awesome full day with 4 wineries and layover in Niagara-on-the Lake. Parking was about... more

Very good overall y good location

Everything is good with the Hotel the only issue I found was the pillows are so hard . The rest is ok

Not bad price for location

Room did not get cleaned one day but the staff was nice and the parking during the week we were charged was higher than posted on the sign out front, it should have been adjusted

Good, inexpensive hotel in Niagara Falls

Even though the hotel isn't brand new, it was still very comfortable, clean and the staff was very helpful.

Not spectacular, but good enough!

Can't complain given how little we paid! While this hotel isn't a 5 star, it was pleasant enough to stay 3 nights to enjoy our time in Niagara falls. It's obviously an older hotel in need of some modern updating, but it's simple and kept clean. Their proximity to restaurants and attractions if great!

Clean the air filter on the air conditioner

I ask to change the room but was told there no rooms available. The reason was loud noise in the hallway bet 11 pm and 3 am on sept 25.

hotel rooms need some work

water stains on ceiling and wallpaper peeling.Decor need updating.the mattress was probably the most uncomfortable mattress i've ever sleeped on (probably the original mattress from when it opened).

Good Location for Niagara Falls

Good Location for Niagara Falls. Not much else is in its favour.

Good

It was a great stay overall. I think they charge to much for items and they don't have continental breakfast

Nice hotel but facility is not in good condition.

Very nice hotel close to everything. However, the elevator to 7th floor is out of service. We have kid with stroller and a lot of luggage. Thus, it is not convenient. The air conditioner is very much noisy. Generally, it is a good choice with nice price.

Awesome staff, great location.

Fantastic staff surprised us with a gift certificate to the neighboring Denny's after we mentioned it was our first get away without kids in years, and in celebration of our anniversary! Although the bathroom was a little dated, the room was very nice and extremely convenient!

nice hotel

I would recommend a room away from the front of the hotel next time, as it was quite noisy until about 1:30am, but otherwise it was a great stay. Beds were very comfy!

close to where the action is

Though its a short stay we found the room quite comforting.

Okay for overnight, but not what shown in photo.

Was disappointed that room shown in picture on Expedia website was not what our room looked like. I went to Niagara Falls with my wife for a romantic weekend before she left for 5 weeks of travel to visit family overseas. From Expedia website room reserved was shown as having a heart shape jetted tub in room with mirror next to tub and near bed. There was no heart shaped tub in our room, and... more

Ok hotel excellent location

It was an ok hotel not a dive but not fabulous. Pool was not cold. Express checkout did not work.

close to clifton hill

The room was big, but the bed could have been more comfortable. Could have used more towels.

ho jo by the falls

had a good stay. the hotel is close to everything by the falls. ill we did was park the car and walk. my only disappointment was having to pay to park my car at the hotel. this is just like a cash grab. you have to park somewhere don't you. this cost should be part of your room costs.

Great location. Pool,hot tub, sauna

Easy to locate. Central to almost every place. The staff were informed and friendly. Everything was explained well. The Toronto Star was free in the morning. The pool hours are good. We did not like to have to pay extra for parking and having a breakfast provided would have made the trip better.

nice hotel

Close to shopping and the falls Helpful and friendly staff We really enjoyed our stay

Was great

Stayed two nights in a great hotel nice and close to everything

Nice place

The hotel is close to everything. Restaurants, stores, casino & Niagara Falls.

We enjoyed our stay! Kids loved the pool!

We would for sure come back! Staff were so friendly with kids. Not a far walk to the falls. Close to everything. Kids loved the pool and the slide.

I Go HoJo

Staff was great room was clean but basic wish it had a microwave. Pool and arcade is great for kids. Best part is your right in the middle of everything.

Liked that it was close to everything!

Expected a little more considering the cost, but I guess being a two star it was ok!

This is the first hotel I stayed that charged a deposit for incidental damage! The room smell when first walk in. I have to turn on the ac for a long time for the smell to go away. The pillow is way too high. The mattress is okay. The pool water is muddy maybe because i went during late evening. The whirlpool pool burns your eye after sitting in for a min.

Location was great a few blocks from the Falls

Not bad overall room layout was a unusal staff did not clean our room once during our stay and when checking out front desk clerk was short with us and people over the phone she was talking too

One night stay

Room was clean and a good size. Staff were friendly. Pool was nice with the inside and outside attached so you could swim between them

convinent

I was only there for one night however, it was a pleasant experience, and the staff was excellent. I would go back again.

It needs some updating and the mattresses are old. Carpeting needs to be changed. The hotel is walking distance to clifton hill and the American falls.

You Get What you Pay For

They took a queen size board, threw it on a double mattress and called it queen size. Who does that?

Nice hotel, close to the falls

Booked this hotel for me and my 2 sons. It was in a great location, about a block to Clifton hill. Only took about 15 minutes to walk to the falls. The staff was courteous and helpful. The room was exactly as shown online. Mattresses could have been softer. The pool was a little chilly, and the slide was much smaller than anticipated. There was a 90 lb weight limit. The restaurants in the hotel... more

Couldn't ask for more.

I was pleased with the overall cleanliness and atmosphere of the Hotel. I also liked the convenience of the many nearby places to eat.

I stay here every year!!

I have been coming to this hotel for many years now --at least once, often twice. Always have a room with a balcony as I love to stand out there and look at the sights. Beautiful view of both Casinos,m Tower, Wheel and all the lights and people. Very convenient location for walking to the falls, restaurants, shopping and just having fun!! I love it and will keep coming back!!

Great Location & Pet Friendly

My wife, 10lbs Yorkie Katie and I had a wonderful stay. Awesome location and walking distance to everything. We highly recommend buying the pass that lets you into 4 major attractions and comes with WeGo for two days. Plenty of place to eat and all affordable. Housekeeping was great and didn't complain about Katie's barking which was most important too us as Katie gets worked up when strangers... more

Good location, pet friendly.

Hotel was good for the price, nothing fancy, old decor, a bit smelly but one of the better ones that's pet friendly.

Not worth the money.

We entered a hotel that took us back to the seventies. The staff were excellent. The hotel had ripped lobby seats, holes in the bed blankets and torn bed sheets. The room air conditioners only got colder if all the lights in the room were out. The pool and Whirlpool were scummy. This hotel needs a major renovation from top to bottom. If not for the staff and the location this hotel would be... more

staff was very helpful with all my questions, if they didn't know they looked it up..

Close to the main road but staff no clear

It was everything ok, but when we checked in (it was already payed the 1 night) they asked us for 200 dollars per room as a security deposit and that of course before living they would give us back the money. Too bad I used my credit card thinking they would have done a per approval of the amount, surprise was the next day when they told me they got the money from my credit card and it would... more

Great pet friendly hotel

Staff was very friendly and efficient. Our room was clean and well maintained. It was an easy walk to main attractions and the bus stop was right on the corner. The second floor was for guests with pets.

2 day stay

overall clean and room was large. our request to have the 4 rooms near to each other was met. staff was friendly. hotel was within walking distance to main street and there a few Chinese restaurants nearby within walking distance. we can also view the skywheel from our hotel room

Great Hotel to stay when visiting Niagara Falls

Stayed here with my two adult children ( aged 19 and 21) . A little dated in decor but was clean and staff were friendly. We liked the fact that the hotel was a five minute walk away from amusements. I would recommend this hotel.

Another enioyable stay

Overall we enjoyed staying at the Howard Johnson. The rooms are well appointed and clean. It was good to be able to make use of the fitness room to get our exercise because it was too rainy for a walk. The one disappointment is that there is not even a basic breakfast or a voucher to cover breakfast provided. The... more

Best place for families

Reasonably priced, CLEAN, great staff, pool, close to the hill and it is very quiet. Denny's is next door for breakfast, but I would recommend the half block walk to Golden Griddle for half the price. There really are no downfalls to this hotel. All the rooms now come with a fridge, so they are listening. The building is not... more

Warning. Please read before booking with them

This is why its not worth going to a poor hotel:
you are on vacation, you dont want to get upset and have to fight and argue for everything.. you dont want to have to write unpleasant reviews.. read on
They lie about things when you make your reservation.. like they tell you parking is included then when you get... more

Noisy on weekends

THIS HOTEL NEED SOME UPDATE. It's WAS PRETTY CLEAN AND THE RECEPTIONIST WERE GREAT. They need security on weekends it was very noisy on the weekend. I don't recommended it. Also the rooms need a microwave a small refrigerator.

Great location

We stayed 2 nights over Victoria Day weekend. The hotel was full. We were given a free upgrade to a heart shaped Jacuzzi room. Place was clean, quiet and there were plenty of nice towels. The hotel was located close to Clifton (the fun street), walkable to the casino and the falls as well as dozens of restaurants. They had... more

2 Queen room with balcony

We have stayed at this HOJO's By The Falls several times and love it. The reception is awesome and very accommodating. THe only thing is the balcony rooms are in need of a bit of upgrading, and some still smell of smoke.

Hojo & Family with Dog

Hotel was clean and conveniently located, not far from Clifton Hill amusement area and between the 2 casinos. Not too far from the falls also.
Our room was quiet enough and clean and extra towels and coffe supplies were provided upon request. Our dresser drawers were coming apart, but we managed. We were surprised to find out at check in... more

Back to the future: Shaggadellic baby

Although this place hasn't been redecorated since 1963, it has been cleaned. The cleanliness level was a ten. The TV was a vintage SD viewing experience. Limited channels. The staff was very friendly. Overall it was a comfortable visit, very close to the falls. The pool looks like a good place to entertain kids. We recommend getting your passport though,... more

Great Location

This hotel is in a great location away from all the traffic and noise yet close enough to walk to everything. I really like that they are pet friendly and I was able to take my dog. They also have an indoor/outdoor pool which is great for the kids. The hotel itself is okay (nothing spectacular). It is an affordable... more

Mini vacation

It was great place to stay to bad I had to pay extra for parking and also for a microwave it should have been included since I had 2 small children and need the bottle to be warmed up

they do not honour the quote they give you & Suites are not so sweet

Phoned the Howard Johnson hotel by the Falls to get a quote for a girls weekend away. I was honest about the number of cars and number of rooms I would need (just 2 joining rooms). When we arrived they were training the ladies at the front desk so she didn't really know what to say to us when the... more

Hotel was clean and close to the falls and attractions

Hotel was clean and close to the falls and attractions. Would definately recommend for people visiting area for a few days.

very good hotel clean good room good location . just one

very good hotel clean good room good location . just one thing the parking is not free i am positive to go back to this hotel

Nice Experience

Stayed here for two nights with no problems at all. The staff was nice and the room was quiet and we slept very well. The location is convenient to the falls and many restaurants nearby. I would definitely consider to stay here again. We had a dog which is an additional $20 per day, so beware. But we were put... more

A Convenient Night Stay but nothing more

I booked online with Expedia & didn't expect much. Now I have to say the $10 parking fee is ridiculous, you get a parking pass that should be the end of it. The $200 fee on your credit card when you check-in is dumb "in case you smoke or steal towels fee" then will take it off after we clean... more

Excellent considering the price

No problems at all, kind of self service ... no one asking you a question ...
Important ... room was clean and service was good .... close to most attractions just walking.
Parking lot just at the hotel ... very easy and confortable.

Four out of five is not bad

This hotel is perfect for those on a budget who want to be close to the falls and entertainment. Our first night was a Saturday and it was busy! There was a lot of noise in the passageways and adjoining rooms, however this got a lot better over the next two nights. The rooms are quite comfortable and room service... more

Very nice stay

Stayed for 3 nights and it was an excellent stay at a great location. The staff were very helpful and always ready to help.
Had a room on the top floor with whirlpool bath which was very nice. The room was large and clean.
The exercise room wasn't great,but who wants to exercise when you are on vacation, have break.

miniholiday

Staff courteous, followup on any concerns done immediately, rooms clean great location will visit again.

I'll never be back

I chose this hotel for it's proximity to everything and the price.
I wish I could go back and pay a little more for a better place.
The pictures looked great, and I even read some great reviews, but this was not our experience at all!
We found the place using GPS easily.
Check in was simple with nobody in... more

Great location

This was my 5th trip to NF, Each stay was at a different hotel. While I really enjoyed the time I spent in a Falls-view room with a separate family and dining area but spending 400 hundred US a night isn't really practical.
Anyway, the Howard Johnson's location without a falls-view is excellent. You are right in the heart of... more

20th Anniversary

I would like to thank the staff for making our 20th anniversary one to remember and thank you for the room upgrade

Enjoyable stay

Our room was extremly clean. The entire hotel was very nice. Although we did not use the pool or workout room we did look them over and saw no problems. The staff was friendly and courteous. Overall a problem free stay.

Great location and value

Great location. Everything was within walking distance.
The WEGO stops outside the hotel.
The staff gave great advice and help with sites and restaurants.
Room was clean
Parking was safe
Overall a good value. Would stay again

Great, inexpensive place for the night

We just wanted an inexpensive hotel for one night so we could go to Niagara and celebrate a birthday. HoJo's fit the bill. The room was clean, maybe a little dated but bed was comfortable and the price was right. Close enough to Clifton Hill that we were able to walk everywhere
I would stay here again for a quick... more

Right in the Heart of Everything

I took my kids to Niagara Falls for spring break in April 2014. The pros: Conevient to all the attractions and restaurants, 2 blocks from the falls, food court was inside the hotel, indoor pool w/slide and rates were cheap if you stayed more than 2-3 nights.
Cons: Hojo hotel was old, building was outdated, pool was overpowered by clorine,... more

happy but some complaints

Overall the hotel was great the room was beautiful and we had a great mini vacation just the of us :)
The good points were the room, it was big, clean and the jetted tub was great. The girl, Rachel, who checked us in was very nice! The hotel was also very clean.
My complaints however, first the night manager... more

Wonderful Stay

This is out 3rd year in a row staying at the HOJO by the falls. The staff is wonderful! Clean Rooms, Comfortable beds, and great service. Very competitive prices for the area making the stay with them even better! Short walk to the Falls and the attractions on Clifton Hill. Plenty of restaurants close by with loads of variety to... more

Not bad

The hotel is located on Victoria street, an easy 10 minute walk to all Clifton Hill attractions, 12 minute walk to the Falls, and a 10 minute walk to the water park. A KFC and Baskin Robbins have street access but are located right inside the hotel lobby.
Tons of restaurants in the immediate area, including the 24-hour Denny's 20... more

pleasent

short walk to falls , casino , lots of restaurants near by . upgraded room , no charge.very busy hotel , but in the room was quiet . pleasant reception , no waiting checking in or out. room was clean , jetted tub was fun

A Bad Experience

Booked in January, called to confirm in April. Gave our rooms away and then charged us an excess fee to book in larger room.

Great place for the price

We came for a cheerleading competition and stayed here, they are a standard hotel room, small bathroom but served our purpose! There is a pool indoors and a hot tub, the fitness room is small but works well! Parking was good, a little tight on Saturday night but it was very busy in town and we still got a spot,... more

Passing grade

The accommodations were ok. With the nearby restaurants very expensive, a simple continental breakfast would be a big plus, but then Denny's wouldn't be too pleased with that. The whirlpool jets didn't work, and the shower lacked a curtain. These serious problems could be easily addressed with a little attention.

Great Location

I really enjoyed my stay here. The location was just perfect to reach all kinds of attractions, and the rates were very reasonable. The room was clean and spacious, and I loved that it could accommodate all five of us, rather than splitting us into two rooms! The beds were comfortable, the staff was friendly, and I loved that there... more

Excellent service

Very pleasent week with smiling people and clean rooms.
Pets allowed in the room, which made us very happy.
Near the Niagara falls and various attractions.
Outlets also at 6 mns from Hotel.

Excellent Hotel

We stayed as a couple for our third anniversary in September 2013. It was our second time at the hotel and we will gladly be returning. We were able to check in early but realized that we had booked two queen beds instead of one king. The woman who checked us in said that she would change our room and... more

Great Location

Great location to the falls, quick 10 minute walk. 24/7 Denny's right next door great for late evening arrivals. Rooms were comfortable. I wish there was better water pressure in the bathroom, but that's the only complaint.
Reception was very helpful, chasing up our tour that was late, which was very helpful.
A great stay overall.

Clean, convenient, basic

I'll admit it: I'm a bit if a snob, and very picky. That said, I was pleased with tis place. Rooms were exceptionally clean. Quiet rooms. Easy parking. 15 minute walk to the Falls. Comfy bed. Perfectly clean bathroom. If I have to have a complaint, it's that the room was a bit small... not a problem... I only use... more

We were treated royally ... and the kids loved the pool area

We celebrated my daughter's eighth birthday here and could not have been more pleased.
All the staff, from Karey and Kevin and others at the front desk, to Vlad and the housekeepers, were unfailingly friendly and willing to do all they could to make our stay enjoyable.
They routinely went above and beyond ... and then asked if there was... more

The location was perfect as it is close to Denny's such

The location was perfect as it is close to Denny's such great food my mouth still waters at the thought.

Nice hotel, tourist trap policies

We decided to visit Niagara Falls to celebrate our anniversary. We chose the Howard Johnson because of the company name, and it offered the best rates in the Clifton Hill area.
Anyway, upon arrival, we noticed a sign on the driveway featuring public parking at a rate of $5 for the day (Friday/$10 Saturday). We were being charged $9 per... more

Incredible Customer Service

Skip the big hotels! I booked our annual trip to the falls today for my wife and I. This is our 11th weekend at the falls and our 7th straight year at Hojo. We stayed at other popular high rise hotels in the area as we like to shop around try different places but found we just enjoyed the staff,... more

well worth it

was very happy with the stay, front desk was very modern and clean. rooms were large and clean, and they looked like the were updated recently. the pool was the best part. water slide was great. location to the strip was excellent. no complaints.

Memorial weekend trip

things were just great, nothing but good with this stay.

My husband and I stayed at the Howard Johnson at the beginning of February. We were greeted by friendly staff at the front desk and they were very helpful answering all questions we had. The room was a little dated but still very nice and clean. We had a great night away and would definitely return there again. Thanks for... more

Extremely Great Value for Money

I was not expecting much other than a bed for the night in Niagara Falls. I travel there frequently and have stayed in a few hotels in Niagara area.
Very central! Clean very very spacious rooms with free wifi being a bonus. The pool and hot tub was open til late 11pm which was a bonus for me and my... more

Anniversary getaway

As always, the staff at this hotel were pleasant,helpful and very friendly!
The room was awesome!!! I can't wait to go to my home away from home really zoo.

Fantastic Hotel! Wonderful staff

Great Room, Nice pool, indoor and out(in season), Great packages and enhancement packages to make the stay that much more memorable. 24hr Denny's on site. Also KFC, Pizza Hut & Baskin Robbins! The Hotel staff could not have been more friendly!

Clean hotel with great pool and amazing customer service

The staff at this hotel are top notch. The hotel is closely located to Clifton hill. The pool has a slide which is super fun for the kids. And there is a kfc, baskin robbins and pizza hut in the lobby. Rooms were clean.

Great Package

As we purchased the family fun package the extras which included food and attraction coupons really added to the great value. Our room was very comfortable with a really soft bed. The pool was also very nice and is heated. We found the front desk to be very helpful and incredibly friendly which made us feel welcome. If you decide... more

Not all that it said in add

Didn't expect to put up $100.00 for securing the room.They wanted to put it on my credit card to make sure no damage to room. I said i'll give cash so I can get it back in the morning.Wasn't going to wait for them to put it on my card after I got back whose to say what damages we did? Also said there was Restaurant & Lounge NO GO.There was nothing except a Dennys next door very overpriced,but... more

Everything you need for a decent price

This is the 2nd time in 6 mth's we have stayed here and we will continue to stay here every time we come back to the falls. The hotel is only 5 mins away from Clifton Hill so you save on parking and everything is in walking distance.Staff are very friendly and our room is very neat and tidy. Not sure why it only gets 2-3 stars on most sites but this is a place everyone should stay at.

My room no 526 at the end of corridor so it was quite . They were very helpful when the safe box didn't open when I am about to leave hotel .
\n\n
No refrigerator in the room .

I loved the rooms three queen size beds.most comfortable beds . Staff was excellent.

Everything from location to access to surrounds!
\n\n
Nothing! It was perfect!

everything!great room great staff lovely pool sauna and whirlpool .very convenient location we could easily walk everywhere. superb value for money
\n\n

I loved the free upgrade. Convenient in and out parking. Close proximity to many restaurants and tourist sites.
\n\n
WiFi was choppy at best

The price for what we received was excellent! Close to the falls easy access to many amenties! The hotel was very nice and comfortable would stay again!

Our room was upgraded to a more comfortable room that was larger for our family. It was great!
\n\n
N/A. Everything was great!

for the money it's perfect! the rooms are clean and comfortable , and the staff is awesome!

Deluxe Suite was very spacious, cozy, and clean.
\n\n
Suites did not include a refrigerator or any way to heat up food. For an
extended stay was not convienent unless you want to go out 3 meals a day
and bring back no leftovers.

Quiet, comfortable room
\n\n
WIFI was a bit weak in our room

location was excellent. Parking had a overhead. Staff very pleasant
\n\n
$9.00 a day to park! No micro-wave or fridge in room. To use E-mail you had to get a code from the front desk and you received 10 minutes of time. At times when using this a notice of some sort appeared and you had to wait 30 seconds which was subtracted from you time limit. They also only had 1 computer to use.

great location, great price
\n\n
no airconditioning, bed too soft, pillow too hard

A great hotel with friendly, helpful staff - within walking distance to
tourist attractions -could park car and walk everywhere. The wego system
right by our hotel worked out fairly well, except for one time - the bus
never showed.
\n\n
Restaurants and attractions were very pricey. Prices were bad enough
with the 13% tax, but most places added on a "destination
charge" which, in my opinion, is... more

Close to to attraction. Big room. quite.
\n\n
Little expensive for for what you get. Room Room might have been facing the falls but there was no view.

the location

everything was fine no complaints

The hotel is close to the Niagara falls without being too expensive. When booking I tried to find a clean hotel within walking distance to the falls, without the room being too expensive. That is what I got as the room was clean, the shower and jacuzzi was clean and everything else. No weird smells, which is always good. We walked everywhere during our stay even though we had a car (parking is... more

The Mirror over the bed

very helpful staff
\n\n
beds were hard and seemed undersized

location, location, location! Front desk staff very accommodating. Was in town to run a half marathon and getting a late checkout was great!
\n\n
The floor in the bathroom needs a little more work.

Location was great! The bed was super comfy and I loved that they had a fitness centre and a pool.
\n\n
The cost was too expensive for the size of the room.The heart shaped jacuzzi was too slippery and very loud. The a/c wasn't on in the hallways so it was very hot. Not a lot of parking area.

Plenty of parking on site.Pool and whirlpool were nice. Foor
court in hotel.
\n\n
A/c did not well. We had to keep bathroom door closed to make it
bearable in room.
Fitness equipment old and worn.

Good value and location

The hotel is held really close to the Clifton area, the tourist area. Also there're good restaurants like outback and TGI in front of(my taste) . The rooms are clean and the hotel is ok. In general I like it ,because for the price it was kind equivalent.
\n\n
I extremely be shocked with the fact that they do not offer fridge for free. Also we had a small misunderstanding about the room packet... more

Great location. Very friendly staff.

clean and friendly.
\n\n
pillows to bulky. need a varity.

Great location, good price, clean and comfortable room, reasonable parking cost.

Spa/Relaxation Maid service we had a great maid by the name of Kimmie, Close to everything we wanted to see and do.
\n\n
Internet not worth turning your computer on, paying for extras', like parking and refrigerator, Every thing to costly in area.

The king room with whirlpool was excellent for the price and the wifi works great.
\n\n
I thought parking should be free for guest and it was difficult to find a spot sometimes.

Reception desk staff very friendly and helpful--knew the area and
answered all questions.
\n\n
Additional $9 per day for parking.

Central location on Victoria Avenue. Close to restaurants, etc
\n\n
I was charged an extra $20.00 on 08.08.2013. Hotel staff stated that
this was preferred rate for this this day, and that rate can change. The
prior rate is guaranteed????. Request refund of over charge

Location and staff
\n\n
Wifi inconsistent

It was in a great location just five minutes from Clifton hill, ten
minutes from the falls. Hotel clean, comfortable and efficient check in.
\n\n
When leaving they charged us for parking even though we didn't bring
a car. (Used the go transit) this was quickly rectified to the right
amount. Minor detail for otherwise a great comfortable stay.

I like about the hotel is that everything was there the locations was

The bed mattress on both queen beds soft and bumpy. I would say not comfortable

I liked pool and big beds, also a door between our rooms.
\n\n
I didn't like a carpet in the room, the stale smell of the carpet after cleaning. In my opinion, carpet is not the best idea, it creates rotten air, herewith a non-opening window. In additional, the beds are big, but not comfortable.

King Bed was very comfortable and we like the heart shaped jacuzzi.
\n\n
We wanted to stay one more night and the rate they quoted was far too high. No courtesy was offered.

Position, pool area.
\n\n
Staff wouldn't phone our taxi as it was on the American side so we
had to get change for a public phone.

Staff were friendly, room was nice
\n\n
I am still waiting to hear back from the hotel manager about being double charged for my stay. Also, booking.com seemed to lose our reservation and we had a hard time with the checkin process. The staff were accommodating but overall I think these issues should not happen in the hospitality industry.

Everything
\n\n
Pay for microwave

Spacious room with heart-shaped jet tub for very little cost. A few minutes walk from the falls.

It was great, a stuff and ewerithing.
\n\n
The windows were scewed in, no fresh air inside

Clean room, Wi-Fi nice, free upgrade to jacuzzi tub
\n\n
Streets really crowded, noisy

We were expecting a regular Room and was pleasantly surprised when we got a large Room with a Hot Tub.
\n\n
I found the stand up shower a little small, I kept bumping my elbows. Air condition was good but a bit noisy.

Location was central to the area. Front desk check-in was very friendly!
\n\n
Hall carpets needed vacuuming Room safe didn't work - called front desk and said they'd be up within the hour to look at it bit we had a dinner reso and couldn't wait Dirty facecloth found in drawer Chlorine in the pool and hot tub was so strong we couldn't stay because it hurt our eyes

The room was excellent and the staff was very helpful.
\n\n
Parking fees and charge for refrigerator.

Easy access to stairs/trail to the falls.
\n\n
No continental breakfast.

It has an easy access to almost everything.
\n\n
Paying extra for a microwave

parking fee,

Great location, Awesome price

This HoJo is a short walk from all the Niagara Falls attractions...but that doesn't matter since the bus stops outside the hotel!! It was clean, the sheets smelled great, and it is in the heart of all the Niagara fun.Parking was an extra $9 a night, but WiFi was free.You pay so much less just to be a block away from the main drag, it is so worth it.

Good for the Price

We stayed here for two nights and overall it was a comfortable experience. Parking was easy, though there is a charge, and the hotel was walking distance to all the major attractions. The only real complaint was the wifi. It is very slow and spotty. I had some work to do while away, and the wifi made it painfully difficult. Otherwise, though, a good hotel with helpful staff.

Vacation

The room was a little high for a older room. very close to all attractions walking distance.

Good place to stay

Great location. Met all expectations. Friendly staff.

great staff but NOT one block from falls

The staff was very friendly & accomidating. The hotel claimed to be 1 block from falls but it was at least three blocks from a fall view.

Better than expected.

My wife and my Mother-in-law were with me. My Mother-in-law is handicapped and travels with her toy poodle. The staff was very accommodating to our special needs and very pleasant at all times. The rooms were very spacious and the beds were very comfortable. We would stay there again if we go back.

We had a great time Howard Johnson

We had a great time Howard Johnson was clean and in the prime location within walking distance to everything definately staying here again on our next trip to the falls

“Fantastic value for what we spent. Would most definitely stay here again!”

Mixed Feelings

The hotel is in a great location at the top of Clifton Hill. Plenty of restaurants in walking distance and other things to do. The Hotel is in good condition and the front desk associates are nice. The HUGE problem we had was with the pool. We were looking for a good deal with a pool for our kids. The pool was the coldest I have EVER been in! The pool was kept at 58-60 degrees. They have a... more

good place

Very clean and updated

Hotel "Falls" a Little Short

This hotel was advertised as being a block from Niagara Falls, but that block was approximately a 15-20 minute walk, which included a very steep hill on your return to the hotel. That should be noted, also it was advertised that you could take the hotel shuttle to the Falls and other attractions but the ad never said there was an almost $8.00 per person charge. In every other hotel I have... more

Horrible Hotel

The room was horrible, the bathroom was very small, no fridge or microwave in the room, the mattress was uncomfortable. Dirty carpet.

Good location

Exelent

Great family get away

we did a little site seeing, played in the arcades, visited some of the museums, and went out for dinner and breakfast...location of the hotel was excellent,just minutes from everything..... more

wow

the hotel staff was very helpful.

Niagra Falls

We had a great vacation. The staff was friendly and hepfull.

“I liked it. great location. clean. should have had breakfast offered. should not have had to pay for parking. Nice and friendly staff who were responsive. Comfortable room. Air conditioner could have worked better.”

“The hotel lobby was inviting, however, the hotel itself sorely needs updating. There were cigarette burns in the carpet and a not-so-pleasant smell to the room. We stayed in the same hotel 17 years prior and not a thing (except the updated lobby) has changed, including the red one piece tub unit. Give the rooms a facelift.”

“Disappointed with this hotel, will not stay at this location again.”

My review of Howard Johnson Hotel - Niagara Falls

Was not so much that the hotel was a not a nice place in its self to stay. Staff was not knowledgeable of area, and not friendly.

Great Staff, great rate

The Howard Johnson at Niagara Falls was about what I expected for the rate. This is an older hotel and could use a little remodeling. The beds were comfortable and we had a balcony with a sliding door we could open. However this was not offered at the original rate. The staff at this hotel was wonderful. I found everyone to be very eager to please. We had a problem with our tv and... more

Good Location

Convenient to local attractions walking distance to most.

“The hotel in general is okay for the money....it could use a little more care in cleaning and things like that. I didn't think the pool was appealing at all. It was supposed to be heated it was not. It was supposed to have a waterslide. It does but sign says it will be out of service and they don't know when it will be functional again. The worst thing I have ever seen is having to pay for... more

“Our stay was ok. I would not recommend it for anyone who planned on being in their room for most of their stay. Our bathroom was dirty which made us question the cleanliness of the rest of the room. We were not as close to the casino as we had anticipated but the distance was not so far that we couldn't walk there. The cost was a bit more than I wanted to spend but I also believe the whole... more
