Spacious Rooms Two Blocks from Niagara Falls

Every night, giant spotlights placed behind the Canadian side of Niagara Falls bathe the cascading water in a rainbow of colors. The sight is arresting as well as romantic—one of the top draws for the honeymooners and vacationers who come through here in droves. Just two blocks away from this site stands the Ramada Hotel Niagara Falls Fallsview.

Guest rooms feature complimentary WiFi, 27-inch flat-screen TVs, and panoramic views of the city. From the recently renovated hotel, you can walk over to the falls or take the WeGo citywide transportation system, which stops right out front and travels to nearby attractions. Your stay includes dining credits for Outback Steakhouse, Ruth’s Chris Steak House, and the hotel’s IHOP restaurant; some options come with additional vouchers for TGI Fridays and The Keg.

You’ll also get a choice of either a wine-tour pass for two or admission for four to Niagara Falls Fun Zone. The wine tour includes a visit to the underground barrel cellar at Peller Estates Winery, as well as tasting flights at Trius Winery at Hillebrand, Wine Country Vintners, and Thirty Bench Wine Makers (transportation is not included). The Niagara Falls Fun Zone has many attractions; some of the newest ones include the Mini Putt Shipwreck Adventure, Niagara’s Haunted Hallways, the Mystic Maze of Mirrors, and Galaxy Quest Lazer Tag.

Niagara Falls, Ontario: Panoramic Views of the Falls near Vegas-Style Casinos and Water Parks

At Niagara Falls—considered by many to be one of the world’s seven natural wonders—water thunders downward from a height of nearly 200 feet, crashing onto craggy boulders below. The falls straddle the border between Canada and the United States, with segments located in both New York and Ontario, but the Canadian side of the Niagara River is universally hailed as the finest vantage point to take in all three of Niagara Falls’ photogenic brinks: American, Bridal Veil, and Horseshoe Falls.

Hornblower cruises ferry raincoat-clad passengers around the base of the falls from April through October, depending on the river’s ice conditions. Year-round, Journey Behind the Falls grants a glimpse behind the curtain of Horseshoe Falls—board an elevator that descends 150 feet into the bedrock, then stand at an observation deck steps away from the cascading water.

A 10-minute walk from the falls, you’ll see the neon glow of the Clifton Hill neighborhood. Its Fallsview Boulevard has plenty of Vegas-style kitsch, including glitzy casinos, indoor water parks, restaurants, and soggy Elvis impersonators.

Mudderella Toronto on July 11

Designed by women, for women, Mudderella is a true athletic event. Across the 5–7 mile muddy course, the non-competitive fitness event finds participants trekking across plenty of obstacles, along with mud-filled pits, mountains of hay, and other challenges to be conquered. Some are designed to be accomplished solo, while others ask runners to team up and lend a hand. With obstacles likes Hat Trick, Wheels in Motion, and Mud Majesty, the event encourages its participants to step outside their comfort zone. Every course is different, but they all guarantee athletes a chance to get their hands—and the rest of them—dirty for a good time.

While plenty of fun can be found on the course, the festivities begin before the start line and end well after groups cross the finish line. The day kicks off with a stretch and strengthen session, after which participants can visit The Works and get free temporary tattoos, purple face-paint, and festive ribbons. Afterwards, they can pay a visit to the rinsing stations, change into some clean clothes—muddy sneakers can be donated to a local charity—and hit the after-party. Drinks, snacks, Mudderella gear, and massages will be available for purchase.

Once

When his girlfriend leaves him, a heartbroken Dublin musician decides to give up on music after playing one last time. But a Czech woman hears his song and convinces him to play again. That chance meeting soon blossoms into a creative partnership and friendship—and maybe something more.

Based on the Oscar-winning film, Once transports the movie’s acclaimed songs to the stage. The Broadway production earned multiple accolades upon its debut—including eight Tony Awards, four Drama Desk Awards, and one Grammy Award—with praise for its talented cast. New York Post critic Elisabeth Vincentelli called it a “gem of a show” that “wins its standing ovations the old-fashioned way: with a love story, great songs, compelling characters and inventive stagecraft.”

Unparalleled Views of Niagara Falls at Four-Star Marriott

Oscar Wilde once described Niagara Falls as “simply a vast amount of water going the wrong way over some unnecessary rocks.” But the falls’ millions of annual visitors tend to have a different reaction when they witness the spectacle. If you really want to prove the cranky Irish playwright wrong, the four-star Marriott Niagara Falls may have the ideal vantage point—the Travel Channel says it’s “the closest hotel to the action and promises the best views.”

In falls-view guest rooms, you’ll find prime views of the Horseshoe, American, and Bridal Veil falls. After 7 p.m., colorful lights illuminate the water, casting a breathtaking glow on their heavy mist. River-view and falls-view rooms each contain two queen beds and a TV with pay-per-view movies.

At the hotel’s mezzanine level, the Terrapin Grille Fallsview Restaurant’s floor-to-ceiling windows offer a close-up look at the falls. The restaurant cooks up steaks and seafood and pours local wines (this getaway includes a $ 40 voucher toward the purchase of two dinner entrees). Head to the lobby lounge for cocktails and even more great views. To sample local wines, take the tour at Jackson-Triggs, or visit Inniskillin for daily wine tasting, included with this getaway. You’ll also get daily breakfast for two, and a $ 40 voucher toward treatments of one hour or longer at Serenity Spa by the Falls.

Once

When his girlfriend leaves him, a heartbroken Dublin musician decides to give up on music after playing one last time. But a Czech woman hears his song and convinces him to play again. That chance meeting soon blossoms into a creative partnership and friendship—and maybe something more.

Based on the Oscar-winning film, Once transports the movie’s acclaimed songs to the stage. The Broadway production earned multiple accolades upon its debut—including eight Tony Awards, four Drama Desk Awards, and one Grammy Award—with praise for its talented cast. New York Post critic Elisabeth Vincentelli called it a “gem of a show” that “wins its standing ovations the old-fashioned way: with a love story, great songs, compelling characters and inventive stagecraft.”

Unparalleled Views of Niagara Falls at Four-Star Marriott

Oscar Wilde once described Niagara Falls as “simply a vast amount of water going the wrong way over some unnecessary rocks.” But the falls’ millions of annual visitors tend to have a different reaction when they witness the spectacle. If you really want to prove the cranky Irish playwright wrong, the four-star Marriott Niagara Falls may have the ideal vantage point—the Travel Channel says it’s “the closest hotel to the action and promises the best views.”

In falls-view guest rooms, you’ll find prime views of the Horseshoe, American, and Bridal Veil falls. After 7 p.m., colorful lights illuminate the water, casting a breathtaking glow on their heavy mist. River-view and falls-view rooms each contain two queen beds and a TV with pay-per-view movies.

At the hotel’s mezzanine level, the Terrapin Grille Fallsview Restaurant’s floor-to-ceiling windows offer a close-up look at the falls. The restaurant cooks up steaks and seafood and pours local wines (this getaway includes a $ 40 voucher toward the purchase of two dinner entrees). Head to the lobby lounge for cocktails and even more great views. To sample local wines, take the tour at Jackson-Triggs, or visit Inniskillin for daily wine tasting, included with this getaway. You’ll also get daily breakfast for two, and a $ 40 voucher toward treatments of one hour or longer at Serenity Spa by the Falls.

Niagara Falls, Ontario: Panoramic Views of the Falls near Vegas-Style Casinos and Water Parks

At Niagara Falls—considered by many to be one of the world’s seven natural wonders—water thunders downward from a height of nearly 200 feet, crashing onto craggy boulders below. The falls straddle the border between Canada and the United States, with segments located in both New York and Ontario, but the Canadian side of the Niagara River is universally hailed as the finest vantage point to take in all three of Niagara Falls’ photogenic brinks: American, Bridal Veil, and Horseshoe Falls.

Hornblower cruises ferry raincoat-clad passengers around the base of the falls from April through October, depending on the river’s ice conditions. Year-round, Journey Behind the Falls grants a glimpse behind the curtain of Horseshoe Falls—board an elevator that descends 150 feet into the bedrock, then stand at an observation deck steps away from the cascading water.

A 10-minute walk from the falls, you’ll see the neon glow of the Clifton Hill neighborhood. Its Fallsview Boulevard has plenty of Vegas-style kitsch, including glitzy casinos, indoor water parks, restaurants, and soggy Elvis impersonators.

The Deal

• $ 79 for entry for one to Mudderella (up to $ 119.55 value)
• When: Saturday, July 11
• Where: Bingemans
• Full offer value includes ticketing fees
• This event is ages 16+

Package includes:

• Mudderella Participant Entry
• Mudderella sport band
• Mudderella t-shirt
• Mudderella Pure Protein energy bar
• Post-event alcoholic beverage (21+ only)

Mudderella Toronto on July 11

Designed by women, for women, Mudderella is a true athletic event. Across the 5–7 mile muddy course, the non-competitive fitness event finds participants trekking across plenty of obstacles, along with mud-filled pits, mountains of hay, and other challenges to be conquered. Some are designed to be accomplished solo, while others ask runners to team up and lend a hand. With obstacles likes Hat Trick, Wheels in Motion, and Mud Majesty, the event encourages its participants to step outside their comfort zone. Every course is different, but they all guarantee athletes a chance to get their hands—and the rest of them—dirty for a good time.

While plenty of fun can be found on the course, the festivities begin before the start line and end well after groups cross the finish line. The day kicks off with a stretch and strengthen session, after which participants can visit The Works and get free temporary tattoos, purple face-paint, and festive ribbons. Afterwards, they can pay a visit to the rinsing stations, change into some clean clothes—muddy sneakers can be donated to a local charity—and hit the after-party. Drinks, snacks, Mudderella gear, and massages will be available for purchase.
