Niagara Falls - U.S. side

[DCDisney]

I'm planning just a one-night stay in Niagara, New York, for just 2 adults. Looking for hotel suggestions. Possibly something with a view of the falls ? Any suggestions ? Any experiences you've had, good or bad ? Visit will be late Feb. 2010 or early March.

We stayed on the American side in the summer of 2005, I really don't remember any hotels close enough for a 'falls' view, most of them are on the Canadian side.

I would say that it's going to be pretty cold in February....but beautiful. If you get the opertunity to travel around check out Fort Niagra especially if you're into histrory.

If you want a view, I would definitely cross to the Canadian side. It's only about a five minute extra ride and the border crossing is really no big deal. I've never stayed on the American side, but it looked to pale in comparison to everything on the Canadian side. Not that it won't be wonderful for you anyway. I hope you find something that works out.

The Seneca Niagra Casino has a 25 story Hotel that is a short walk from the Niagara Falls State Park. If you floor is high enough you will be able to see the River going all the way back to Buffalo. If you want a real good view of just he falls though, you may want to cross the boarder into Canada. Just make sure you have a passport or and enhanced Drivers License if you cross. Have fun.

Thanks for the ideas so far. We have both been to the Canadian side before at various times in our lives, before passports were needed. Darling Significant Other does not have a passport.
I was wondering if the Senaca Niagara had some views of the river/falls, if room is on high enough floor. Good to know that is the case.

Most of the hotels with a falls view are on the Canadian side. You must have a passport to cross the border. It is now the only ID they take. Have a great time.
