The front desk staff was so welcoming and actually a hoot to talk too! 🤎 Golden, the bartender, made some of the best drinks I've had in a while.

We loved the Giacomo! Historic building- wow it is so beautiful. We stayed in room 1203 and had 180° views of the Niagara Falls area. Watched the fireworks and enjoyed the clean comfortable large unit/condo. Parking for no additional fee in a gated lot across the street. Breakfast included. Will return to the Giacomo when we are in the area!

The free parking (in a secure gated lot just across the street...

What a wonderful place to stay. For the age of the hotel, it is elegant, beautiful. It's just a place to enjoy. The observation room is incredible.You can see many sights during the day.
