We just returned home from a wonderful weekend away in NOTL. We stayed at The Merlot House and could not have been more satisfied with our accommodations and our hosts. We arrived Friday afternoon, parked the car and did not need to drive anywhere we went for the remainder of the weekend. Walking distance to the downtown shopping and dining... More

I chose Niagara-on-the lake for spending the weekend while I was on a 2 weeks business trip. I found the Merlot House by chance in the internet and I decided to book there because of the pictures which I saw and which I liked. This is the way how I came to one of the nicest B&Bs I ever stayed... More

We had an absolutely delightful stay at the Merlot House. We selected this property at the recommendation of friends (who also joined us for our stay) and it served as our home away from home for an extended weekend to take in the splendor of Niagara wine country, which is easily accessible in abundance relative to the Merlot House's location....

I was torn where to book a room, but I kept going back to the Merlot House and I am oh so glad I... More

The Merlot House, hosted by Mike and Shirley, was the highlight of our trip to Niagara on the Lake. We were welcomed by a sign in the lobby displaying congratulations on our wedding anniversary. In our room, there were beautiful red roses and a chocolate dessert with the message, "Happy 7th anniversary." These were just some of the wonderful touches.... More

We stayed at the Merlot House with friends. It is a wonderful place with lovely guestrooms, well decorated and the hosts are very friendly and extremely helpful. Breakfast was excellent! More

We stayed at the Shaw room. The professional pictures make the room and beds look "really big". The room could best accommodate a single double bed. The beds are uncomfortable if you are anything above 5 foot. The small room is further cluttered with cheap made in China "old" looking bits and pieces. Highly overpriced for what it offers!! Breakfast... More

My mother-in-law and I stayed at the Merlot House for two nights in Oct (the Shaw room--2 twin beds). I wasn't sure I'd feel comfortable in a bed and breakfast, but this was great. We had our own big bathroom, the beds were really comfortable, and the breakfasts, served at 9:00, were delicious and sustaining (we didn't need lunch). The... More
