A Niagara-on-the-Lake B&B is worth the 20-minute drive from the falls if you're staying 2+ nights

Niagara-on-the-Lake is genuinely charming and usually better value than the Fallsview hotels, but only if you’re around for at least two nights. For a one-day trip, just stay closer to the falls and save the charm for next time — the drive adds up.
