“Exactly what I had hoped for!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 7 April 2010

person found this review helpful

Me and my girlfriend decided at the last minute to go to Niagara Falls for the long weekend. I felt a little unsure, but knew it would be nice to get out for a little bit. Upon our arrival I was happily surprized at how friendly Clark and his wife Fran were. We were welcomed to our rooms and shown around, also any questions we had about the area and the location of certain sites were answered promtly.

You walk out of the house and the first thing you see is the gorge, its really something and you really feel like you're apart of the experience right away. It was only about a 15 minute walk until your right in the thick of things. The strip(Clifton Hill) and also a few more minutes walk until your at the actual Canadian Falls, it was really convenient! Parking was not very accessible that weekend so this helped with the price you would sometimes have to pay, which I hear can go all the way up to about $20 during the summer months.

You spend all day walking about town taking part of all the activities and going site seeing and then you either go back to your room. This is what probably surprized me the most is how quiet and peaceful it was there at night. You never hear anyone else in the bed and breakfast and there is ample things to do while you are there. The rooms are furnished really well, and it really feels like your at home with the friendly company that comes with it. Definately a good investment as the rooms were around $100 a night and the hotels in the area went for about $300 a night. Its a beautiful place, the breakfast was amazing and it also has a lot of history which I found really interesting and unique about this particular bed and breakfast!

I would definately recommend it to everyone going there, and I really hope you choose Gretna Green B&B next time you decide to visit Niagara Falls, it was absolutely amazing!

“Absolutely Magnificent.. a home away from home!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 7 April 2010

Me and my boyfriend took a trip to Niagara, I have never been there before so we wanted a nice little getaway. Gretna Green surpassed my expectations. The owners Clark and Fran were excellent. Clark prepared a breakfast that would fill you up until dinner! He was very friendly and would talk to about the history of his B&B and the surrounding area. Any questions you had he would be more than willing to answer them. He was very helpful when it came to where to go and when. We stayed in the Mcloed room with the Jacuzzi. The bed was so comfortable I didnt even want to leave it in the mornings! The Jacuzzi was the perfect way to end the day after walking the streets of Niagara. The B&B is in a perfect location on the gorge that it is a nice walk to the falls and Clifton Hill. The house was cute, clean and we would definately stay there again!!

“Gretna Green..The place to stay in Niagara Falls.”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 2 December 2009

Once again,I made it a point of staying @ Gretna Green during my recent visit with the family.which is becoming a yearly event. I noticed the minor renovations taking place in the back since our last stay ( work in progress,eh Clark! lol),I look forward to seeing the end result next year when we make our trip down. The breakfast & hospitality provided by Fran & Clark is second to none,and what I enjoy the most is how I am treated almost like family when we stay. It is great to see Fran is recuperating well since our last visit,and the accident hasn't kept her bed ridden.I understand how the stairs can be a challenge @ times Fran.
Thanks for everything Fran & Clark!!!,and look forward to seeing you next year.

“I cannot believe the reviews on this B&B!!”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 29 October 2009

First Impression? Not nice. Not to disparage their livlihood, but when the hostess comes out of the house in unfashionable sloppy joes, cigarette in hand, grass overgrown, boarded up back windows, cigarette smells in the vestibule of the house (sign on the door "No smoking"), and the images displayed certainly not like the beautiful image on the internet, we chose not to stay. Hostess could not climb the stairs so we wondered who cleaned the rooms?
