Brilliant value for money. There are spacious rooms, en-suite bathrooms, comfortable beds and pillows and coffee in the morning. The hosts are very warm and friendly and took time to show me how to get around the area. A lot of attention goes into the experience of the guests and with that price the proximity to the falls is amazing.

Gorge view is great if you are looking for a clean and affordable stay close to Niagara falls. I stayed with my family for one night. The beds were very comfortable. Thanks to Jeff, the landlord, for giving us a good idea of how long it takes to see the different points of interest. We were able to finish sight-seeing in one afternoon/evening. The kitchen was very clean and fully equipped. I highly recommend this place.

Highly recommend Gorge View hostel. Unbeatable for the price, comfort, and location - it's directly on the gorge, with trails for the Niagara River Falls, Devil's hole, and all the attractions along the Niagara river. Host is attentive, and the place is unbelievable clean. Full kitchen available (again unbelievably clean). The beds are comfortable, with all linen provided (and NOT the cheap scratchy type) and blankets. I am an older female on a fixed income, traveled from Richmond VA to attend a funeral. Without this hostel I would not have been able to afford to make this trip. Also i did not feel uncomfortable due to my age. I truly appreciate and much gratitude for my stay here.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Gorge View Niagara. The hostel is in a gorgeous red Victorian building with 723 written outside it. The kitchen is spick and span. The rooms are also clean, the beds comfortable and wide enough for adults, with 2 lockers for each bed. The restrooms are also well-maintained. There is a kettle, a microwave, a gas stove, and a refrigerator in the kitchen, where by the way you'll find lots of board games. I don't know what more people expect out of a hostel. The locality is quiet and safe, we were walking just outside the building as late as 1 am. There's wifi and pin secured door. The owner Jeff is super helpful, considerate, and has a sweet humorous side to him. This will be more than adequate for people visiting Niagara. Go ahead and book your stay without any second thoughts...highly recommended!!

After spending a week at this hostel I'm going to recommend it to everyone that comes through Niagara Falls. It's awesome to have an option to stay a night for ~$40 in a community room. It's in a great location, across the street from the aquarium and awesome views of the gorge and Canada. The owner worked the front desk and was very pleasant and knowledgeable.

I enjoyed my stay here and I would recommend it to others. It is very affordable and the hostel is walking distance to the falls. The Amtrak train station is about 1 mile from the hostel. There is a nice nature trail that takes you there. When I arrived, the owner provided a lot of helpful information about Niagara Falls and his recommendations. He made change, and provided detergent for laundry. In the room, there was a washroom, plenty of sinks and 2 large lockers. It also had AC. Separately, there is a kitchen with anything you'd need to prepare a meal. I thought the owner was very responsive through email. I planned on arriving on a certain date, but had to cancel my reservation because my train was canceled. The owner was quick to cancel the reservation and there were no issues. When I rebooked at a later time, I contacted him to arrange a late check-in. Again, no issues. There was a small fee associated with the late check-in, which is to be expected, as he is the only person operating the hostel and cannot be available 24 hrs.

When we pulled up to this, we was really surprised at how close it is. It is literally right across the street from the aquarium. The park is a quick two minute drive. You could not ask to be any closer. The price was really reasonable. I booked a queen room with bunk beds and boy was I surprised by the room. I felt like we had our own little apartment. The rooms were huge. The worst part about this place was if you are the first person to take a shower I’m the morning or the hot water is not being used much throughout the day, it did take forever for the water to get hot, at least five minutes. The common kitchen and dining area had all the necessities to cook and eat. The toaster doesn’t work very well, but that’s only because we like to toast both sides of our bread at a time and not just one. The host was super helpful about places to eat or hidden gems must sees. He definitely knows what’s what. Bottom line, I would highly recommend staying here no matter what your budget is.

I’ve stayed here twice both during 4th of July holiday, ; the rims are clean, beds are comfortable, the location is ideal. Literally across the street from the Aquarium and trails. Jeff is accommodating and always pleasant. This is my place to stay whenever I visit.

Jeff (Manager) was really cool and helpful, he allows early check-in and provides guidance to tour around and enjoy the falls and its view. The place was very comfortable and right across the street was the view of Canada and the trail to the Falls, at nights the scene and the overall experience is better Overall, the place is definitely recommended, The Manager is not rude he's just straightforward but willing to help to the extent he can, and the rules of the place are well specified on the sites so there shouldn't be any misleading or miscommunication.

I really enjoyed my stay at this hostel. The place was comfortable, well maintained, and had a warm, welcoming atmosphere even during the winter season. The host was very informative and helpful. He took the initiative to get me very acquainted with the area. Communication during normal hours was smooth. The host genuinely cares about the well being of both the guests, the hostel and the community around Niagara Falls. I had an awesome experience overall and would happily stay here again. Highly recommended!
