<![CDATA[<img src="http://www.hotelchatter.com/files/1425/Presidential_Suite__1_.jpg" class="top"> Did you know that Canada's tallest hotel tower is actually the <a href="http://www.hotelchatter.com/hotel-reviews/Hilton+Niagara+Falls/ian/169940">Hilton Hotel and Suites Niagara Falls/Fallsview</a>? We did not know this until we got word that the hotel has completed a pair of Presidential Suites atop the hotel tower's 50th floor, giving guests views of both the American and the Canadian side of the falls. (So both President Barack Obama and Prime Minister Stephen Harper can stay in Presidential digs at the same time.) <blockquote>Designed to magnify the beauty of Niagara Falls, the brand new Presidential Suites feature floor-to-ceiling windows, accompanied by remote controlled blinds and shades, and a chic atmosphere created by the décor in shades of white, silver and black.

<![CDATA[ We are suckers for a room with a killer view.  We find that we are even more likely to forgive some minor hotel inconveniences if we can stare out the window at something pretty--yeah we are that shallow. Let's help out our fellow hotel mavens by uploading rooms with killer views to the <a href="http://flickr.com/groups/hotelchatter/">HotelChatter/Flickr photo pool</a>, or by <a href="mailto:tips@hotelchatter.com">sending the photo along to us</a>. We will feature our favorites in this space from time to time. Remember to tell us the name of the hotel and the room number of the hot view.<img src="http://www.hotelchatter.com/files/1425/kvmarriottfalls.jpg" class="top"> Way back in 2006, in the early days of calling out hotel website photos for being a little too embellished, we made

This newer hotel is the best stay we have had in Niagara. The Doubletree experience was amazing from the start; they give you warm cookies at check-in. The room was spacious, clean and had the best beds I have ever slept on. The hotel has an amazing Aveda spa, and an excellent restaurant - my husband had the lamb, I had the salmon - excellent. There is a really neat little art gallery and a Starbucks. Take it from a local, this

Note: One of our tipsters, Lindsay, decided to take a chance on the <a href="http://www.daysinn.com/DaysInn/control/Booking/property_info?propertyId=14561&brandInfo=DI">Days Inn Niagara Falls,</a>, booking the room through Travelocity. Figuring it was a national chain, she thought her stay should be trouble-free. She was wrong. Here's her side of the story. Enjoy.] First of all we are told this is a large king room with a desk and fridge. Well it was a king bed but the bedroom was more like a closet and the bathroom was so small the sink had to be in the bedroom. We are also told they have full cable television and high speed internet, we got about 10 channels, most of which were out by the time

We got a kick out of perusing some of these pictures of the Niagara Falls Marriott which looks like someone at the place has been having a bit too much fun with photoshop.

When you head to the bookings page, you can select from a variety of room choices which all conveniently have thisclose views of the falls and a pretty little rainbow too.

We decided to put our Google Earth obsession to investigative use and check out how close the hotel is to the Falls.
