Victorian charm
We stayed in the Victorian room, the atmosphere was charming and pleasant. It has an old-fashioned feel which is what is expected and I like. The bed was comfortable and we had all of the amenities needed. The breakfast and coffee prepared was very good too. Overall, we really enjoyed our stay. Our host, Wei, was very hospitable and friendly, thank you for taking care of us.

The owner was there to greet us at our late arrival. He upgraded us to the main floor suite as it was our 46th wedding anniversary. Hearty breakfast. Sarah was lovely as she was helping with the breakfasts. We recommend staying at Blue Gables built in 1876.

Excellent and accommodating host, ensuring we were comfortable and happy with our room and our breakfast. I observed he was very conscientious towards other guests as well, purchasing extra items for their breakfast and such Good location allowing easy walking along the parkway or to downtown Niagara Falls. Just far enough outside the heavy tourist area of Clifton Hill to ensure a peaceful stay but a 2 min drive to get there. Hi My only bummer is that there was no bathtub, shower only.

New Years Getaway
We stayed three nights, ending with New Years Eve. Our room was cozy, but spacious and we had three delicious and different breakfasts served during our stay. The location was perfect to see the local sights and we were in walking distance after the New Years Eve celebrations in Victoria Park to avoid taking our car since there were thousands of people in the Clifton Hill area for the festivities. We would most definitely love to stay again during a summer visit to the area!

Bring your phone to breakfast. You may want to take a picture of the beautiful and delicious breakfasts Wei creates each day. The house is charming with its hardwood floors and decorating. Free parking with very handy WEGO bus stop only 50 meters away - or walk into town and to the falls. You can stay at a hotel, which you won't remember. ...or you can stay at Wei's Blue Gables, which you won't forget.

I would highly recommend Blue Gables to any of my friends and family. The home was cozy, well cared for, clean, and extremely comfortable. Our room was exceptionally quiet, and had it's own unique charm. The owner was super friendly and helpful. The breakfast was *considerably* larger than I had expected, and included small pastries, a yogourt parfait, eggs, sausage, pancakes, fruit, coffee and juice. It was conveniently located--just a 4 minute drive to downtown Niagara falls, and steps away from the river. I look forward to staying there again!

I have already added my story On the Blue Gabbles site but let me give you my story. I feel as I am just a number and you screwed us out of our money. I would not recommend using hotel.com to reserve a room again. After reserving the room we realized that Canada would not allow us over the boarder we needed to cancel which was only 2-hours after I reserved the room and 3-days advance. We never made it to Niagara Falls since the bad taste we had using your site. Perhaps you need to e a little more flexible when dealing with boarders. Thanks for not helping us out

Delightful Stay!
Absolutely lovely place. We had the ground floor room, with the little porch, and it was delightful. As were the breakfasts, and the service. Wei couldn't have been nicer or more helpful, including carrying our bags to the car. It's a short drive to restaurants along Victoria Avenue (probably could have walked even), we were able to walk into the tourist area and across the Rainbow Bridge, and it's only a couple of blocks from a WeGo bus stop, which we took to and from dinner at the Table Rock House Restaurant. Since parking in that area is a mess, you wouldn't want to drive. And, I must say, the mattress is firm and one of the most comfortable I've ever had on a trip. My boyfriend was thrilled since he needs a very firm mattress or his back doesn't forgive him. And good water pressure in the comfortably sized shower.
