gorge view is a cozy gem with exceptional local knowledge from staff

Lovely staff, great amenities.

I paid for two nights but only stayed one due to poor public transport in Niagara. Instead of expensive taxis, I took buses to the airport. If you're on a budget, keep that in mind. No Uber here either, so plan accordingly. The location of Gorge View is fantastic, just a short walk from the American Falls. The dorms are neat and spacious, and the bathrooms were clean. The only downside is that there's no food available at the hostel, just water. So don’t forget to grab dinner before returning late at night. Jeff at the front desk is helpful but sometimes a bit condescending. I arrived sleep deprived and after storing my luggage, took the free bus to Fort Niagara. I explored the Falls at night, which was stunning, especially the fireworks. The next day I enjoyed attractions like Maid Of The Mist and Goat Island before heading to the airport. In total, I managed to fit in many must-see spots, so that was great!

gorge view is in an amazing location! it’s a short walk to the falls, and the gorge rim trail is practically at the door. the dorms were neat and spacious, with clean restrooms. i really appreciated the helpfulness of the host, jeff, who offered great local tips.

i do recommend.

I truly enjoyed my stay at Gorge View. The spacious and clean common areas made it easy for seniors to relax, and the handy locations near attractions eased our exploration of beautiful Niagara Falls.

A bit more seating in common areas would help.

I loved how cozy the shared spaces felt with lots of natural light! The convenient kitchen allowed me to whip up some quick meals after exploring. Plus, the short walk to the falls made each morning an adventure waiting to happen!

do recommend 😊❤️

The room was pristine and quiet, perfect for relaxing after a long day of exploring. The location was great too, just a nice stroll to the attractions and breathtaking views.

Not exactly cheap, but definitely reasonable for the quality.

Neat and spacious dorm rooms complemented by clean restrooms made for a pleasant stay. The host, Jeff, offered helpful local tips, though his tone felt a bit condescending at times. The hostel's location is a breeze for walking to local attractions, but it's good to note that bringing your own food is a necessity, as there are no dining options on-site. Perfect for budget-conscious travelers.

Great location near the falls, but Wi-Fi was spotty during my stay.

I loved the spacious common areas filled with natural light, perfect for relaxing after a day of sightseeing. The warm atmosphere made it easy for seniors like me to feel comfortable and enjoy our stay.

More seating in common areas would be helpful.

I had a pleasant stay at Gorge View. The location near the falls made exploring easy, and the clean dorms offered comfort after long days. While the beds creaked a bit, it added to the charm of the hostel experience. I’d come back!

This place is cozy and well-kept, with a kitchen for cooking, clean dorms, and great common areas. I was surprised to have a lovely view near the aquarium.

Felt truly looked after, no complaints whatsoever.

Gorge View offers a clean, spacious environment that’s conveniently located near Niagara Falls, making it easy to explore. The staff, although occasionally condescending, provided useful insights for my visit. I appreciated the quietness of the neighborhood despite some limited common area seating.

The dorm room was spacious, but the hostel had no food options.

Great location and helpful staff

I had a pleasant stay with spacious and clean dorm rooms. The hostel is conveniently located within walking distance of the falls, making exploration easy. The staff was particularly helpful in providing local tips like the best spot for fireworks viewing. However, I wish there were some food options available at the hostel.
