Hilton Hotels Corporation has announced the opening of the newly constructed 512-suite Embassy Suites Hotel® Niagara Falls-Fallsview, in Ontario, Canada, representing the newest addition to the growing roster of more than 170 upscale Embassy Suites Hotels. The largest hotel in the portfolio, the opening of the Embassy Suites Hotel Niagara Falls-Fallsview marks the brand`s rebirth in Canada.

The hotel is owned and managed by Niagara 21st Group, Inc., based in Niagara Falls, Ontario, Canada.

“The Niagara 21st Group is delighted to be flying the Embassy Suites Hotels flag on this hotel,” said Carmen Menechella, chief operating officer, Niagara 21st Group. “In addition to the hotel`s ideal location, the winning combination between Niagara 21st`s dedication to excellent service and product, and the value-added amenities inherent in the Embassy Suites Hotels brand, will greatly benefit this market and set this hotel apart.”
“We are thrilled to announce the entry of Embassy Suites Hotels into Niagara Falls, where there is a clear need for upscale all-suite accommodations,” said David Greydanus, senior vice president - brand management for Embassy Suites Hotels. “The spaciousness of authentic two-room suites, enabling guests to spread out, will greatly appeal to leisure and business travelers in a market where customers traditionally have been relegated to less-spacious, one-room hotel accommodations.”
Located 100 yards from the brink of the Falls, the new 42-story Embassy Suites Hotel Niagara Falls represents the tallest hotel in Niagara Falls and offers breathtaking views of the Falls from nearly every suite. The hotel provides guests with a full complement of services and amenities, including seven meeting rooms representing 9,000 square feet of meeting and banquet space (some with views of the Falls), a business center, an indoor swimming pool, a whirlpool, and health club featuring fitness and state-of-the-art cardiovascular equipment.

The upscale hotel features guest amenities consistent with the Embassy Suites Hotels brand, including spacious, two-room suites that offer: a separate living area with a sofa bed and desk; private bedroom; bath; two televisions; complimentary high-speed Internet access; two dual-line phones with Dataport modems; a wet bar, in-suite safes, refrigerator and microwave oven; and an iron and ironing board. All “king suites” feature a whirlpool.

All Embassy Suites Hotels offer a complimentary full cooked-to-order breakfast each morning and a two-hour Manager`s Reception* each evening. The hotel`s full-service Fallsview restaurant, The View, serves breakfast, lunch and dinner. TGI Friday`s? and Starbucks® also are located on property.

The Embassy Suites Hotel Niagara Falls is located in the heart of the Fallsview Tourist District—surrounded by shops and attractions—and one block from the Casino Niagara Complex (opening in 2004), at: 6700 Fallsview Boulevard, Niagara Falls, Ontario, Canada L2G 3W6; phone: 905-356-3600 or 800-420-6980; fax: 905-356-0472.
