We had a wonderful welcome at the Colonel Butler Inn. We came for the eclipse, which was a bit of a bust because of cloud cover, but the stay at the Inn was really special. We brought our dog and their "dog-friendly" room was set up with a special carpeted platform and dog dishes, as well as a welcoming treat (call ahead to arrange this special service). The staff were all very friendly and thoughtful. We humans got special eclipse-cookies and other considerations while we were there. The room was clean and, miracle of miracles, had no odors (either underlying mildew or perfumy cleaners). This is a big plus for us, because one of my daughters and I are both sensitive to smells. Additionally, the free breakfast is fresh and varied with many delicious and healthy options. If we ever go back to Niagara-on-the-Lake, which is a lovely community, we would plan to stay here. Also, the area around the Inn is a quiet neighborhood which was great to walk through, with and without the dog.

We could hear an alarm from the other room next to us. We were also right across from where they served breakfast. It was super loud and we didn't get much sleep during breakfast hours. There shouldn't be a room right across from where they offer breakfast. Otherwise it was a clean hotel and the staff was great.

The hotel was clean and comfortable. I liked the breakfast and the fitness room. There is no elevator, so that could be an issue for someone not good with stairs. It's also a bit of a climb to get into the shower, so that could be an issue for older folks. There's a nice bar and restaurant pretty much attached to the hotel, which is handy.

A nice property just outside the NOTL main drag. Not a whole lot close by so you would need to walk/drive to the Main Street. Room was spacious and breakfast was enjoyable.

We had a wonderful room with a jet tub in it. The issue was the noise that started with the cleaning staff at 6-7 am and then the breakfast crowd across the hall from our room. I would have given up the neat tub to have a quieter room. Staff is AWESOME! Very well run place

It’s a quaint property, like an upscale bed and breakfast. It’s beautiful and fitting for Niagara on the lake. The images on Expedia and Google make it look shabby while the hotel is actually quite nice and upscale. I usually stay at the Sheraton for work, and I would say that this is a nice hotel compared to 4 star hotels with other brands. Also, Penny is an excellent host.
