My boyfriend and I were looking for a nice little getaway for a weekend needless to say we ended up wanting to head toward Niagara Falls without being in the middle of all the hussle and bustle. We decided on The Inn at Lock 7 ... only 11 minutes from Niagara Falls .... close to great shopping in St Catherines... More

We have stayed at The Inn for many, many years and still love to watch the ships go through the locks. The Inn is a no frill, very clean and very friendly Inn of 24 rooms. Each room has a balcony overlooking the locks. There isn't an elevator so be aware. The main attraction is watching the ships. We even... More

For anyone interested in large seafaring ships, this family-owned motel offers a ring side seat to watch commercial vessels transit Lock Seven on the Welland Canal System. The rooms are a bit pricey at $112 USD for what you get room-wise. The accomodations are comparable to budget chains in the USA. The walls are painted cinderblock and the air-conditioning is... More

My husband and I had 3 free days on our hands. Since neither of us had ever seen Niagara Falls, we decided to go. We had no reservations and no agenda. Our first night was spent in $500 room overlooking the falls. That broke the bank for us, so we left Niagara Falls, looking for less expensive lodging in a... More

I'm of two minds about this inn - after reading all of the reviews, my husband and I stayed here over a long weekend. We've stayed in all sorts of places over the years, from high-end to very basic, and I think that on a scale of 1 to 10, we'd rank this place at about a 4. First, the... More

A very unique place to stay! We were on a biking trip and spent 1 night here. Watching the ships go through the canal was fun. Everyone comes out on their balconies/porches to watch. A very casual place with very basic rooms but has everything you need. They told us where to go to get beer and dinner. It was... More

If you're planning to spend a weekend in the Niagara area, the Inn at Lock Seven is a great location. You're easily within a half hour's drive of anything you might want to see in the area: the Falls, N.O.T.L., the Niagara Parkway, the fruit belt, and - of course - the Welland Canal, which you can see from your...

Watching the ships being lifted or lowered in the lock outside your balcony is great. The ships are from around the world. It is very relaxing, Close to St Cathrine's(about 2 mins.) and great dining establishments. Lots of places to shop and other attractions to see. About 15 minutes from Niagara Falls. I highly recommend this hotel. We have stayed... More

We came to Inn at Lock Seven quite accidentally: we were tired after a long day of cycling, so we stopped for tourist information, and they directed us to the inn. The service was wonderful and personalized -- you can tell this is a family-run establishment. The rooms were clean and reasonably priced. What's more, we had a fun view... More
