Lovely historic home bed & breakfast managed by Maria who is just lovely and an amazingly accommodating host! Very clean! The rooms are cozy but nicely sized, bed was comfortable. Her breakfast was delicious (those scones!!). The house is so close (less than 1 min walk) to the main strip! Highly recommend!

First trip to Niagara-on-the-Lake
Historic Wilson-Guy B&B is fantastic! Maria, the host is very friendly with tips about local places and makes amazing breakfasts. She also provides a tea service prior to breakfast which is such a treat! We will definitely stay here again!

Memorable stay in a wonderful town
This delightful B&B is perfectly located. The Royal George theatre is right around the corner, the Festival and Studies theatres are a 15 minute walk, and in between there are plenty of shops and restaurants. You don't have to worry about breakfast, however. The breakfasts served by Maria are as stunning as they are delicious. Incidentally, the photo below is of our morning treat, which is served prior to breakfast. The rooms are spacious, comfortable and quiet. A lovely property manager by lovely people.

Our stay at the Historic Guy Wilson House was simply wonderful! Maria was a perfect host, paying attention to many small details that made this a one of a kind stay, and will ensure that we will definitelty return! The house and room were spotless, very comfortable, and uniquely charming. The coffee tray with scones and the breakfast in the courtyard made us feel pampered, and were absolutely delicious. You can't beat the location of this fantastic property, and our stay was just splendid. Again, we will most certainly be back!

Lovely place
It is a very well located b&b. Just of the main road but very quiet. It has easy access to all the restaurants at night as they are only a few minutes walk away. In the morning you are delivered a morning wake up tray with your choice of tea/coffee and some delicious scones. Later you have a delicious cooked breakfast with any of the other guests in a lovely small dining room. This is a very small b&b with only 3 rooms so you almost feel like one of the family. I would thoroughly recommend it.
