The Scotsman is a true gem! With just 6 suites, you’ll feel right at home. The staff was EXCELLENT, providing an amazing breakfast and one-on-one assistance all day. The decor is beautiful and the outdoor area is so comfortable you won’t want to leave! It isn’t cheap but you certainly get what you pay for here. Highly recommend!!

The epitome of beauty, elegance, luxury and romance! Enjoyed a lovely stay with my wife for our anniversary here and we enjoyed every minute. We were in awe from the moment we walked in, the attention to detail regarding decor and the warm welcome from staff made us feel at home. We loved our stay and cannot wait to return!

Whole property is truly focused on customer comfort Everything about the property is indulgent and fabulous - the staff absolutely delightful If you want to stay somewhere that had only 6 beautiful rooms in a location that is full of upmarket individual shops and small bistros then Then Scotsman at Niiagara on the lake is your dream destination - loved every moment there

This is a spectacular property! Every single detail of this hotel was magical from the five star service, the stunning decor and design, beautiful bedding, charming details on everything! I cannot say enough about what a wonderful time we had. The hotel helped us book a private wine tour, we were so close to the shops, and walked to dinner! The breakfast on the veranda in the morning was also so delicious! We will most definitely be back.

You must stay at this gorgeously renovated "hotel"

My boyfriend and I stayed at The Scotsman for a quick overnight getaway. We were absolutely blown away from start to finish: from being greeted with sparkling wine, to the kindness of the waitstaff (specifically the hostess and manager), and to the exquisite touches in all of the rooms. It is evident how much care the owners took when remodeling this gorgeous property. When leaving, my boyfriend and I were only half joking when we assured the manager that we will be back for the pancakes alone (breakfast is complimentary)! Thank you for making our stay so special; we can't wait for our next trip.
