Top Upstate New York Hotel Reviews

Quality Hotel & Suites At The Falls

10/10 Excellent

"Staff was very helpful answering our questions about parking, and about where the bus would pick us up for our Niagara Falls tour. Beautiful pool. The gift shop in the hotel was very reasonably priced compared to the gift shops in the actual park. The only negatives I could think of was that there were some crumbs on the floor of the room, and the plug to the bathtub was broken, but we also didn’t mention this to the staff, given how friendly they were, thy likely would’ve offered solutions, but at the time it didn’t seem worth mentioning. Parking is a bit abysmal Overall, it was a very positive experience and we would highly recommend."

Buffalo Airport Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Staff was welcoming. Room was clean and bed was comfortable. My only complaint was the weed smell coming from one of the rooms. It was really strong. But went away after a bit."
