The Inn at Lock Seven

We have stayed there twice this season and love it. First time was to ride our bikes on the Welland Canals Trails. Second to ride the trail again and to golf. Excellent golf was nearby. Watching the ships in the canal is fascinating to watch. You won’t be disappointed.

We stayed 4 nights while hiking pieces of the Bruce trail which runs close by. The passing of ships through the locks, which you can view from the small balcony was pretty entertaining. From the hotel there are a number of walkable restaurant choices, which was great. Yes, the decor is dated but I think it was very well priced for the comfort, convenience and service we received. I'd stay again. Maybe just bring a cooler of beverages and watch the shops go by instead of hiking 5 hours a day. Lol

For a cheap hotel, this is quite good. The downsides are that the beds are pretty hard and the decor could use an update (tiled walls?). The upsides are that it feels very safe - it is in a quiet neighbourhood and, although it is a motel style with separate exterior doors, to reach the exterior doors requires a key to access a locked staircase. The rooms themselves are clean and seem very well maintained. The view of the lock, while it could not be called beautiful, was neat. I did not realize massive barges pass through the locks and it was interesting to sit on the room’s private balcony with a coffee at sunrise to watch that happen. Best of all was the customer service though. I stayed here as a rest stop from hiking the Bruce Trail and the person who checked me in saw my gear and offered me mineral water, which was very thoughtful. I would stay here again and recommend it to others. Would be 5/5 if the bed was a bit softer.

Great location which allowed us to walk to our event. the Inn is quaint bit overall the facility needs some serious upgrades. overall the rooms were comfortable and clean and price was fair. We stayed at fancy Inns at Niagara on the lake in the past and their Inns needed upgrading also but still charged 3 x the price per night. Watching the ships move through the locks was an added bonus. We will definitely use this facility in future

Amazing customer service, very friendly. Rooms are clean and comfortable. Amazing views. Will be returning again 100%. Highly recommend if you're looking for a spot. Only 15 mins from Niagara falls too. Thank you so much.
