    WOW! Is all I can say to begin this review! What an incredible experience! Helena is an amazing hostess. As soon as we arrived, she made us feel right at home. We stayed for 3 nights. Our room (and ensuite bathroom) was absolutely beautiful (the Van Gogh Room), clean, wonderfully decorated and so comfortable! This was our first Bed and Breakfast stay and both my husband and I are so happy we chose the Lion's Head B&B instead of a hotel! What a personable and enjoyable time we had! The breakfast was out of this world!!! I'm not speaking lightly, each day was a gourmet 5-star breakfast, like nothing you have ever tasted before. Absolutely delicious!!! Helena is an incredible chef and took great care in accommodating to my special dietary restrictions. The house is a beautiful place decorated with incredible artifacts and pieces from Helena's travels around the world. She provided incredible tips and advice on different must-see sights and tourist attractions that helped make our trip the best! We had such an amazing time, and the Lion's Head is so close to The Falls and Clifton Hill, and all of the main attractions of Niagara Falls, we walked everywhere! It was so convenient! Yet also so peaceful and relaxing! Even sitting around the table each morning having breakfast with the different guests and listening to Helena's stories was an unforgettable experience. I recommend Lion's Head Bed & Breakfast 110%! This awesome woman knows what she's doing and you can tell she loves what she does! You won't be disappointed!

    Quaint 100+ year old house with tons of character. Helena was a great host and always had interesting stories to tell. She also served amazing breakfast dishes that would be $15+ at a local restaurant. Definitely would recommend this B&B!

    Good location . 15 minutes walk to Niagara Falls. Free car parking. Very restricted owner, but very friendly and helpful. You are not feeling that you are in hotel, its like you are living in your best friend's house. Very delicious breakfast .

    My husband and just stayed here for the first time July 2017. I have always wanted to stay at a B & B. Helena is great! Food is great! Our room(s) were the third floor. Very private and very comfortable. Our king bed was one of the more comfortable ones we've slept on besides our own.

    If I could do 6/5 stars I would! Room- very clean, super comfortable bed with fresh linens, en suite bathroom was excellent!! Big shower, fresh towels, beautiful design. Food- Delicious hot breakfast prepared each morning. We had bacon, eggs, local tomatoes, English muffin and fruit. Helena, the innkeeper is incredible! Very kind, knowledgeable and friendly. We had plenty of privacy. We will be back & will be recommending to friends!!

    Great place, my first B & B. Leaving out one star because I didn't know I'd have a suite not advertised on website. The owner was really nice so I didn't want to hurt her feelings and tell her. She makes a great breakfast but it would be nice to have her wonderful coffee later too. She's a great host, friendly, interesting, and professional.

    My girlfriend and I came to stay for a weekend. We had a wonderful stay at the Lion’s Head Bed and Breakfast. The location was perfect being a very short walk to the Clifton Hill entertainment area and to the falls viewing area, the included breakfasts were fantastic and much better than anything you’d find at any local breakfast restaurants, the room was incredibly clean, spacious and comfortable. Damien was an excellent host. Very accommodating and interesting to talk to. We look forward to our next stay here at the Lion’s Head as the stay was much more comfortable and we received much better value than any of the hotels could have provided.

    Our stay at Lions Head B&B was pretty spectacular. It was comfortable, welcoming, clean, and breakfast was amazing. Our room was clean, bed was comfortable, and I loved the bathroom. Helena is a gracious host. It was a pleasure talking to her over breakfast. She recommended that we go to Niagara on the Lake and she definitely did not steer us wrong.

    My wife and I stayed here recently and thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Lion's Head Bed & Breakfast. Our host/Inkeeper, Helen was delightful. Very personable and great to chat with about the area hot spots or travel in general. She was very welcoming and made us feel very comfortable in her beautiful Victorian home. There is free parking out back and it is about a 15-20 minute walk to the Falls. Our room had it's own bathroom with shower and the bed was very comfortable. Key highlights: - The breakfasts are absolutely amazing. Helen is a fantastic chef and you will not be disappointed. - Quite area with easy access to the Falls. - Beautiful historic building

    I stayed for 4 nights during a family get-together in Niagara and found Helena a truly amazing host, helpful, gracious, and efficient. Her breakfasts were the best I've ever had while on vacation (restaurant /B&B/hotel) .... french toast with blueberry compote and crispy bacon? Yum! The rooms are gorgeous, comfortable, immaculate. The overall space of the B&B is spacious and beautiful -- I loved spending time on the enormous porch and listening to the river just across the street. The location is perfect walking distance to all the sights, enough away from the bustle surrounding the falls, but only a short 10 minute walk. Thanks Helena, I can't wait to return!

    I really love this Bed and Breakfast. The hostess (Helena) is very welcoming and she made sure that my husband and I had a relaxing and comfortable stay. I was delighted to see that the bedrooms are named after famous artists which is in keeping with the layout of the house itself - very tastefully furnished with a lovely old world sensibility. Our room, the "Van Gogh", was very clean, comfortable and spacious with full en-suite bathroom facilities. I also enjoyed the breakfast which was nourishing, tasty and different each morning and was the perfect start to the day. I will definitely pay a return visit.

    NOTE: If you're an introvert like I am, get ready to step out of your comfort zone and meet new people 😉 Great location and friendly hosts! It only takes 15 minute walk to the Falls and Clifton Hill. Damien was also masterchef so be prepared for some real good breakfasts! I'm not a fan of old-styled, antique rooms but they were very well decorated and cleaned. The only minor downside to this 1910 house was the creaky floor on the second floor!

    Very quaint, attractive establishment! The are very clean and unique! Helena is a very friendly social person, who's vast knowledge of Niagara and the surrounding area really add the the enjoyment of your stay. The breakfast was outstanding!! Perfect location, most things are within walking distance. Would definitely recommend!

    The Lion's Head Bed and Breakfast was the perfect location for walking everywhere around Niagara and the perfect laid back atmosphere we were looking for for our Anniversary. Helena's breakfasts were exquisite and the conversation was interesting and gave us new plans for trip there. We were able to come and go as we pleased, we had free run of the home, and I was able to sit on the front porch swing drinking a scotch smoking a Cuban cigar watching 20+ minutes of fireworks on the American side. Helena keeps a clean and tidy home, yet she is as entertaining as she is carefree. We really enjoyed our stay at the Lions Heab B&B! I would highly recommend staying here over any of the much more expensive Fallsview Hotels. When we come back, the Lions Head will be our home base for any trip to Niagara!

    We were so happy that we chose this b&b to be our home away from home for our trip. Helena was a vivacious and informative host. Her breakfasts were superb. We loved our attic room for its charm and spaciousness. We actually took a whole day to chill and read in our room. Helena gave us good tips on what to do around the falls and how to use the bus transportation. Our trip was memorable because of our accommodations and host. We could walk to the falls which made the location perfect.
