All things Niagara Falls tourism…

As regular visitor Adam pointed out, the Niagara Falls Doubletree has changed their name. It used to be:
Doubletree Resort Lodge & Spa Fallsview
It is now:
Doubletree Fallsview Resort & Spa by Hilton
I contacted the Doubletree to get the scoop and this is what I found out. The addition of the “by Hilton” at the end was done by the brand. Apparently all Hilton Family Hotels outside of the US now have that in their name. As for removing the “Lodge” portion, it wasn’t mandated, but it was suggested. They found that too few people understood Lodge and that tipped the scale to Resort. However they still are promoting the “architectural elements” of the hotel.
Personally, I think the “by Hilton” is clunky, but I like the main part of the name. “Resort & Spa” seems to flow better than “Resort Lodge & Spa” (it seemed redundant). On the other hand, I guess it’s unfortunate that the word Lodge is gone, as people won’t be able to tell right away how beautiful the hotel really is. As I wrote before, it is absolutely gorgeous, and the lobby/atrium definitely feels like a lodge.
From Hotel Business Magazine:
The Doubletree Fallsview Resort & Spa by Hilton-Niagara Falls here has earned a Three Green Key Eco-Rating from the Hotel Association of Canada.
The program is a voluntary program designed to recognize hotels that have taken significant steps towards sustainability through participation in environmental programs, best management practices, training programs, and engineering solutions which have benefited the environment and the local community.

Last Thursday I received the latest newsletter from the Americana Conference Resort & Spa. They are promoting a special rate for August. I’m not sure what the 72 hour sale is referring to. It doesn’t indicate when that rate is available to be booked. If it was 72 hours from the time the email went out, then the deal is done.

Someone with a LiveJournal blog posted about some trips to Niagara Falls:
Things have definitely improved in the five years since George and I have been together. I remember getting a phone call the first January, saying he wouldn’t be home for three days. He’d gone to a spa for a retreat. What the #*#*#???? Turns out he’d gone off to the spa at Niagara Falls, and yes, they have gambling there. The next time he went to Niagara, I went along for the ride. We went on one of those buses where they charge you twenty five dollars, and then give you a coupon to be redeemed for twenty dollars at Fallsview Casino. The next time, we spent the day together at the Falls, and rode on the Maid of the Mist. How romantic. How wet.

From the Globe and Mail:
The Sterling Inn is a fusion of luxury hotel and fine inn. It offers packages ranging from the one- or two-night Retreat, which includes dinner, breakfast in bed and a couple’s treatment in the hotel’s Spa One, to the Experience, which begins with a limousine ride from your home.
The building has an interesting history. In 1930, it housed Borden’s Dairy, whose horse-drawn carts delivered milk and cream to the residents of Niagara Falls, Ont.
On Friday I received the latest newsletter from the Marriott Niagara Falls Fallsview & Spa. They are promoting a spa getaway that could be used as a Mother’s Day gift.
