Best Resorts in Niagara Falls

This 220-room property sits on 13 acres of Ontario wine country, about 8 miles northwest of Niagara Falls. Many guests come to White Oaks for romantic getaways thanks to its serene ambiance and upscale amenities. The Spa at White Oaks caters to twosomes with its extravagant Luxury Suites, which come outfitted with gas fireplaces and deep soaking tubs. Plus, visitors can take advantage of The Spa at White Oaks, which offers indulgent treatments like honey and yogurt body wraps and therapeutic massages. And past patrons here agree that the Italian- and Asian-inspired dishes at LIV Restaurant — along with its extensive wine list and contemporary design — set a sumptuous mood. The other restaurant, Play Urban Cafe, serves up casual and healthy fare like spinach salads and California clubs. Meanwhile, guests praise the clean, comfortable accommodations; each room comes outfitted with Keurig coffee makers, complimentary Wi-Fi access and 37-inch LCD televisions (plus an 8-inch or 15-inch TV screen on the bathroom wall). While White Oaks has all the trappings of a quiet getaway, the property is also well-equipped for conferences and events, with more than 67,000 square feet of meeting space.

Upon entering the DoubleTree Fallsview Resort & Spa, guests can't help but comment on the sleek, modern design of the lodge-like lobby. And the fact that visitors can be wowed by the hotel itself is saying something, since the property sits only a few blocks west of the falls themselves. After a day of ogling the rushing water or tasting wine in the surrounding area, guests can rest their heads on a DoubleTree Sweet Dreams bed in one of the hotel's 224 guest rooms. Each guest room and suite, which travelers describe as spacious, is appointed with a minifridge, a 37-inch flat-screen TV, free high-speed internet access and views of either Niagara Falls, New York, or the American Falls. When you're ready to eat, head to Buchanans Chophouse for a buffet breakfast (a-la-carte lunch and dinner are served later). Though some guests weren't impressed with the breakfasts at Buchanans, most enjoyed the ability to grab a cup of Starbucks brewed java at Moose & Squirrel Coffee Bar. For more variety, venture across the street to Yukiguni Japanese restaurant, which serves flavorful sashimi, teriyaki, tempura and sushi dishes. Looking to relax? Visitors suggest making an appointment at Five Lakes Spa AVEDA, where you can luxuriate in a Rosemary Mint Body Wrap or a Fusion Stone Massage. Because of this hotel's Hilton ties, Hilton Honors members can earn and redeem points here (and enjoy warm chocolate chip cookies upon check-in, a DoubleTree specialty).
