We had a wonderful stay at the Finlay House B&B! The location couldn’t be better—just a short walk to the historic and beautiful downtown area. Our room was comfortable and inviting, but what truly made our visit unforgettable was our host, Yvonne. She was beyond welcoming, attentive to every detail, and went out of her way to make us feel at home. Her warmth and hospitality made this a truly unforgettable stay. Highly recommend!

Great trip

It was our managers third day but it seems like a great fit for her! Very good food, personable morning chats. Location was excellent - could easily walk to town and felt safe and easy. I was worried about the Shakespeare room because the bathroom is down the hall but since it was a first floor suite, and they had a curtain dividing the dining area, it actually felt fairly enclosed.

A Lovely B&B

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Finlay House. The hostess, Yvonne, was super friendly and helpful. Her breakfasts were delicious and presented beautifully. Our room was very spacious, well-appointed and clean. The bathroom was large with much storage space. Finlay House has a great location within walking distance to most attractions. We would definitely stay here again! Thank you, Yvonne!

We had a great stay right in the heart of NOTL at the Finley House. My daughter and I loved our stay in the Bernard Shaw room with a private bathroom. The room was spotless and well appointed. Instructions on arrival were easy to follow. Breakfast in the morning was a real treat, homemade French toast, real Canadian maple syrup, bacon, orange juice, coffee and bananas. What a great way to end our stay. If you’re looking for a place to stay in NOTL I would highly recommended Finley House. I’d stay again.

The hosts were friendly and helpful with a warm smile and a genuine heart. The breakfasts were delicious. For an establishment that is not specifically handicapped accessible, it was more accessible than many places I’ve been. That being said if you need accessible accommodations this is not the place to stay.

Finlay House was an excellent spot for our overnight stay. Our room and the entire facility were very well appointed. The bed was wonderful. We enjoyed that it was easy walking distance to the restaurants, the shopping area, and the Shaw Festival theater. We look forward to returning here for an even longer stay. Highly recommended!

In try own for the 2024 eclipse

I was staying in Niagara-on-the-Lake for the total eclipse but also to see “Witness for the Prosecution” at the Shaw Festival and to take a “Ghost Tour” of Fort George. The Finlay House is very conveniently located within walking distance of Lake Ontario and downtown Niagara-on the-Lake. That make my stay in town very enjoyable.
