Very cute little inn, a bit far out from the city centre, but still walkable. Maybe 10/15 mins to Queen street. The room was very nice and comfortable with a spacious bathroom. Only thing to keep in mind: there are no fridges in the rooms so if you want to buy groceries or have leftover food from a restaurant you can only put it in a big shared fridge in the back. Breakfast was good, just wish there were a bit more protein options (scrambled eggs, bacon, etc.). Overall though, very pleasant stay with polite staff and comforting interiors.

A small hotel, about 10 minute walk from the heart of Niagara on the Lake, through chocolate box residential streets. Room was comfy, spotlessly clean, great staff, especially the lady that sorted our breakfast every morning.

Just lovely!

Spent a wonderfully relaxing couple of days at the Canterbury Inn. The hotel is very comfortable (we were in the very large bedroom #9) and the gardens are delightful. Be sure to check them out and spend some time there in the sun (if possible). The breakfast was excellent and the staff extremely friendly. We walked into town every day and discovered more and more each time. Don't miss a trip to the Museum (very interesting and engaging) and we also walked out to Peller Estates & Winery (about 30 minutes) for lunch on the last day - highly recomended!
