We came here in October 2023 for two nights. The ambiance when you walk in is quite neat. Very rustic, lodgey of course. This place is huge. Tons of rooms. The room we were placed in to me smelt like a hospital. Was quite odd but whatever.

We wanted to unload everything when we checked in and then hit up the pool however, the fridge wasn't working and we had food for it. That added a good 45 minutes for someone to come and replace it. The beds are decent. Balconies are a nice touch.

The crazy thing is that there is no housekeeping until you check out. So you go through a ton of towels when using the water park then showering after. Then the towels start to stack up. The bathroom is old. Like a yellowy tub/toilet.

The water park is by far the best of course. However, the little kid slides are ridiculous. There are like 5 different ones but only 1 kids per 5 slides at a time. And it's mighty slow. The lineup was usually around 10 people. So you stand there freezing cold until it's finally your time. Not worth it. The hot tub is great.

All in all, it's an okay experience. But for the money, the rooms need to be much nicer. Props to the hotel for making the other prices affordable for the food, arcade, snacks and drinks.

3/5.
The trip was lovely for the grand children, they all loved it. My only complaint is that there should be more consideration from other guests wearing provocative swim gear around the hotel. There was way too many thongs walking throughout the hotel, swim area and even in the arcade area where they were there to simply put on a fashion show flashing around for the little ones to see. Add a little alcohol and you get a real pretty picture for the children and how to explain the nudity flying around their little faces. Codes of conduct should be natural thing for adults in a child’s venue, clearly they need to be taught at the registration desk.
Great wolf lodge in Niagara Falls has never disappointed us. This will be a yearly trip for our family. They have a much to do. You can never get board. The rooms are absolutely beautiful. The staff each and everyone one is amazing. We don’t drive but wanted to spend the day. They offer to store our stuff in the luggage room. We alway have fun. The ginger bread house is amazing as well. It’s a neat idea. They should add a house for every season! 🥰
Brought the kids here a few times and they love it. While expensive you get a lot of value for your money and the kids love the water park. So many slides and things to do in the water park for all ages. While I would not bring smaller kids there’s plenty for them to do as well. The food was good for a buffet and decent priced as well. Also tons of non water park activities for your kids and getting the paw pass seems to be the best value for our kids as you get a bunch of things to keep them busy. They will definitely have fun and you’ll make some great memories.
This place is so much fun to go to with kids or without. There are so many activities to do and the waterpark is so much fun. I liked the water rapids slide! We booked a room with 2 levels for more privacy for the friends and it was beautiful. Even the view from the room was so peaceful in the mornings. We went around Christmas time so there were pretty lights everywhere and extra activities. It is a 2 hour drive from where i live but it is so worth it.
Great place for a family trip. If you factor in the price a water park into the hotel stay, it's a win-win. Staff was friendly all around. The food plan was worth it. Every restaurant had good food, and adult beverages were reasonably priced. Water park is great for the kids, cool arcade, mini bowling, and story time is an added bonus. Bottom line, you can not go wrong for a 2/ 3-day stay.

Awesome time, nice clean place
Was my first time at Great Wolf Lodge with my boys. The room was clean and nice. The hotel was nicely decorated. Lots of children's activities for them. They enjoyed the Magi Quest (extra expense for the wands and game activation fees) and the water park. The food price is reasonable. Too bad we didn't bring their Halloween costumes because there was a trick-or-treating event, a best costumes contest, and a Halloween dance party. One night is not enough because there's also an arcade, laser tag, and more. My boys are already asking to come back.
We stayed at the skyline hotel and it was attached to the Waterpark via sky Bridge. We got the Waterpark passes through our hotel package. The Waterpark hours are absolutely awful. 11am to 8pm. This is Niagara falls.... pretty much everything is open late except for the Waterpark. We couldn't even go the 1st day because it closed. Poor value, old facility. Hot tubs and wave pool were not operational. I won't be back probably.
This was our first time going to the great Wolf Lodge water park and we had the most amazing time ever. Getting to the resort was a breeze they had everything ready to go, the wristbands (key cards), the paw passes, the room everything was ready for us. The kids did the magic quest around the hotel which they loved and built their bear or wolf.

All the facilities from the water park to the buffet were all very clean and well looked after. The staff were all very friendly and approachable, the staff in the water park were all paying attention very closely to everyone in the water rather than just sitting somewhere which was good to see.

Our family will definitely be going back in the near future, I would definitely recommend this if you're thinking about it for a place to stay while in Niagara falls or just want a fun winter break at a water park.
Kids had so much of fun and the rides are great. However, I feel the place needs a good renovation specially the carpets it could be hazard for the kids while running.
We took 4 Grandchilden ages 5 to 12 and there were activities to keep everyone happy. Very well supervised.
First time coming here and my kids loved it! They enjoyed the shallow pool and the crazy waterfall slip and slide area too! Very fun for kids and adults. Has general fast food options and I believe I saw a bar on top. Would bring my kids again but it's pricey. Expect to pay a lot for the experience.
Overpriced they are charging 60 per flip flip at this place no wave pool 3 slides USA is better with water parks not to mention the entrance was a scavenger hunt. It was fun until you run out of stuff to do after 3 hours tops. Floor is rusty also.

It's small, but surprisingly packed full of fun for the kids. With 4 slides, a wave pool, and a section for smaller kids there's enough for everyone to have hours of fun.

Kids had a great time. Could use some refreshing. If your kid below 40" it won't be much for them to do. Kids loved purple slide and it have longer wait as well. Friendly stuff. Food is total fail. I recommend you to bring your own food( even it says no outside food) as nobody really cares or check. Second floor have food tables and playground. May come back in winter time as there is not many options
Not bad water park in Niagara.
There is a zone for children 5-9 years old, a very poor zone for children up to 5 years old, a couple of slides for adults.
There is a cafe with fast food - the quality of the food is very low, you can't take your own, but I think if you take fruit, drinkable yogurt and bread, they won't say anything.
It smells very strongly of chlorine. If you go here for this amount, it is better for the whole day.
At 10:00 they start here and until 8:00 in the evening. I will not say that I am delighted, but the children like it!
Generally a great waterpark, and we had a great time there.
Well maintained and organized. Crowded but a 10-20 min wait for a slide is acceptable. Slides are very fun especially the purple one with the bowl. Staff very helpful.

Something that can be improved: Not easy to find the elevator to the entrance. Not enough showers. No seats in changing rooms. The floor doesn’t seem clean enough with those little stones. The line for the four tube slides sometimes is a big mess. We wait for 10 min for the mat slides and just when it’s our turn , the staff suddenly told us the slides will be closed for 30 mins. How ridiculous is that.

Luckily we went there on Tuesday. If there are more people I don’t think they have enough capacity. There are only 8 slides, and the wave pool is small. The price is a little high.
The Waterpark was a great place for a family visit. The kids have a variety of slides to choose from as well as a hot tub to relax in. As for the parents, they can sit back and keep an eye on the kids at poolside or from the mezzanine while having a snack or beverage before releasing the youngsters to the arcade.
Smiling staff, unlimited service and magnificent view, I would definitely recommend.👍👍👍
Great place for winter indoor water park , well clean and my kids had so much fun , but I wish it was bigger a little or add some more rides that kids have more options, for the price was not bad, over all good and will visit again,
I love the hot tub was amazing
Definitely recommend for families with small kids! Big kids may be bored as they are only two kids of large water slides for big kids. My daughter (3) had a blast as she could go on all the water slides including the two small ones, tot slides, and the big tube slides, and was also able to play with her baby sister in the tot pool! The wave pool was smaller than expected but overall, it was perfect for my kids!
The renovated rooms are a good size and clean. Expect holiday Inn express quality. The water park (super chlorinated) is lovely for younger children (18months-8yrs),so make sure to rinse with soap and lotion immediately! Less crowded and less expensive than alternatives in the area. Great for a midweek staycation.

Prefect waterpark for younger kids. Back right there is a kiddie pool with three small straight slides.

Large kiddie climber with two slides and giant dumping bucket.

Main wave pool and small area attached to it with floating log and basketball nets.

2 tube water slides and 2 body slides. My 6 year old was tall enough to do body slides alone and double tube slide with parent

Pack your sunscreen and sunglasses. They open the doors at the side and parts of the roof so it’s bright and the sun gets in
Bathroom is clean but small only two showers so if it’s busy I can imagine it would be a nightmare.
We stay at the Amaricana hotel and come to the water park once or twice a year. The facility is huge, but the kids really seem to enjoy it. There is a wave pool and a few different water slides for them to choose from.

The rooms have always been clean when we stay. And the staff have always been nice and accommodating. I would definitely reccomend the hotel and water park, especially for a quick weekend get away.
We received a $250 gift card through this company, and when we got there all the venues listed on there website as valid venues refused our gift card, and claimed they never heard of any gift cards before. terrible service our night was completely ruined. Just a heads up for the people planning on going to Hershey world or Niagara distillery.
Falls Avenue Resort.. Like Nowhere else, truly lives up to its slogan. I have worked here for almost two months now and it truly is an amazing place to work previous to joining Falls Ave, I planned to go into social worker, however now I do not see myself leaving Falls Ave, but rather moving up into employee services and making it a career. There truly is a job for anyone and everyone at Falls Ave, when I need an accommodation they had it completed in a matter of 24 hours. It comes down to the old saying treat others how you wish to be treated.

This resort has everything from the Adventure City Arcade for Kids, The Family Friendly Falls view Indoor Waterpark, The Casino Niagara. as well as a plethora of dinning options - from fast take out (Starbucks, Freshii, Terrace Food Court which features a Pizza Hut and Great Canadian Burgers) to Pub Foods, such as Niagara Brewing Company and Billy Bones BBQ. To themed restaurants such as the Rain Forrest Café, to fine dinning restaurants such as Prime Steakhouse, the Rainbow Room and the Sheraton Falls view dining level.,

Having some of the best amenities in Canada along with top tier views of the 7th wonder of the world - Falls Avenue is not cheap but you 110% Get what you pay for, and is sure to please every traveler. And when you thought the amenities could not get better - they do! They are all connected and you never need to leave the resort! I highly recommended checking out Falls Avenue Resort, it turly is like nowhere else!
On Thursday, July 25th, me, my wife, and 5 of my kids were trapped in the elevator at the back of the Crown Plaza that leads to the water park and parking garage for 50 minutes. The doors would not close all the way on their own, and could not be opened from the inside. My eldest daughter (12) is claustrophobic, and did her best to not have a full melt down, but she now refuses to go on any elevator. My next eldest daughter (10) got sick due to the heat inside the elevator, which got rather hot. This experience ruined our vacation. We will not be coming back for a long time. I would like to thank the staff that were on hand that gave us what help they could, the cold bottles of water were appreciated, and the fact that you stayed on hand while we were stuck meant a lot, thank you!
I've been here several times now but today we celebrated my son's 9th birthday and everyone had so much fun! Their birthday party deal is amazing. Everyone had all the pizza they could eat, all the pop they could drink and could come and go as they liked all day. We were there for over 5 hours and had a blast. The staff was so nice and helpful and the slides and wave pool were a hit with everyone.
My biggest complaint here is that it is not stroller/wheelchair friendly. Yes, there are elevators, but there are certain portions that can only be accessed by stairs, unless you go up and down the elevator multiple times. It is also a little confusing and can be stressful if you've got a cranky kid in a stroller and can't get to where you're going. it's 2018; it shouldn't be that complicated to add a ramp.

This is another one of those casinos that don't do anything extra for you. They will kick you out easy if you don't spend enough . Their food is basic and you pay for basic food. I would have a picture but we forgot to take it because it was laughable. Unless you want to drop bills you're nothing. Society at it's best. P.S. I make more than your security guards.
On top of having the largest indoor waterpark in North America, this resort property is affiliated with Starwood- Sheraton on the Falls hotel, IHG- Crowne Plaza hotel also Skyline Hotel and Waterpark which has a direct walkway from the hotel to the waterpark, and just across the street Clifton Victoria Inn which also has their indoor pool, parking free of charge and the only one out the four hotels listed that gives you breakfast free of charge. That's what accomodation offers are provided that are affiliated/attached to not only the waterpark with indoor access, but it also gives indoor access to Casino Niagara, Adventure City Arcade, Boutique shops such as Hershey Chocolate world, Always Refreshing Coca Cola Store and Maple Leaf Gift Shop.
If you get hungry from all the fun there's also indoor access to the dinning options within the resort, these options include Hard Rock Cafe, Rainforest Cafe, Subway, Pizza Hut, and KFC. At Sheraton there's Fallsview Buffet that serves breakfast, lunch and dinner that also looks over the falls on their 13th level, and Windows Restaurant serves a fine dinning dinner option, a business casual dress code is required for this restaurant, but both are available to the public as well as hotel guests. At Crowne Plaza, The Rainbow Room on the 10th level offers breakfast buffet and a fine dinning dinner with a business casual dress code, also with a view of the waterfalls and available to public as well as hotel guests at either four hotels listed.
Now if NONE of that sounds good or you don't think any of these attractions will catch your eye, walk right through the resort and right next door is Clifton Hill with all the main attractions, which include haunted houses, fun houses, The Skywheel, and right across the street from the resort is the waterfalls of Niagara Falls itself, as well as the ever famous Hornblower formally known as Maid of the Most boat ride.
The most wonderful part of the resort is it's open to anyone, anytime.
Keep in mind your visiting one of the 7th wonder of the world's so it's won't be a budget friendly trip, but at Falls Avenue Resort you will get what you pay for :)
