Staying In The Most Luxurious Hotel Suite In Niagara Falls - It was terrible

Niagara Falls, Ontario has a bunch of very mediocre hotels that all feature rather average hotel rooms. But what if you want to go all out and spend an enormous amount just for one room? Well, I did just that! I’m taking a look at the exclusive Presidential Suite at the very top of the Hilton. We’re going to find out if this often greedy town lives up to its name, or if this massive suite is actually worth the money!

This is the most Niagra Falls thing I have ever seen. For arguably one of the most well-known tourist attractions in all of Canada it is shocking how badly everything around it is taken care of.

I would love to hear if Hilton reaches out after this, because the state of that room is pretty damn sad and they should be embarrassed. The suites should be perfect. They should be the most up to date styling, everything should work, and the balcony shouldn't be locked. Also, self parking should be included.

[samwolf]

They LOCKED the Balcony!?!? If that’s not false advertising, I have no idea what is

A dated hair salon was the best description 😂. You seriously need to post more of these! These are my favorite hotel reviews.

[jeffdecola]

I can safely say this. Jake is hands down the best reviewer of ANYTHING. Period. I spent 20 minutes of my life listening to you describe a hotel room and it was fantastic. Well done.

13:06 I like the look of confusion on her face when she realizes the menu is one-sided.

Former Hilton corporate employee here. This hotel has had issues in the past with incorrectly honouring Hilton Honors benefits. Technically they should be offering the full continental breakfast for two and not limiting it in this was as a non-US property.

Gonna be honest, when this channel first launched I balked at it; I though "Oh great, Youtuber swinging his success around, showing off ultra luxury top dollar experiences that 99% of his viewers will never be able to even dream of having for themselves. The nerve of this guy!" But after seeing these episodes so far I've realized I had it all wrong. Every one of these mega priced hotels, cruises, etc. has been varying degrees of crap, and Jake has been shelling out the big bucks so we don't have to. So thank you, Jake, for taking the hits for the rest of us and showing that top tier vacations aren't nearly all they're cracked up to be.

I am by no means rich, but pre-pandemic times, when I would go on holiday with my other half, I would always save up for the best hotel and room I could afford. I can't even imagine the disappointment of someone saving up for a special occasion to stay here, and being greeted with this. I think the worst part is actually that it's the best room in the area - knowing that this is as good as it's gonna get for such a magnificent landmark.

[brendan]

It’s Hilarious how savage Jake can get in these reviews 😂

[valeriepark]

As soon as Jake said "liminal space hallway" I knew this was going to be SAVAGE

[TheMeganExperience]

The sarcastic, "I get why they're doing this, Niagara Falls is incredibly dense and there really isn't any room for parking at all." While simultaneously zooming out to show approximately 7 taller buildings in an absolute sea of nearly empty parking lots.

So, I worked at a Radisson for a few years in the pastry department. Your complementary breakfast consists of pre-made place-and-bake frozen mini-danishes, and it looks like they didn't even bake them properly for how deflated they are, nor did they do anything to finish them (which even at a business-class hotel that was on its way out, we dressed these up with glazed fresh fruit and/or icing drizzles and chopped toasted nuts when we used them in the morning buffet because they're so sad as they are). A box of 120 pieces runs about $80 USD these days so your plate of pastries at most probably cost them about $6.50 USD to produce, including the berries, the muffin liner, and the (very minimal) labor involved.

*DEFINITELY NOT TOO NITPICKY* Every single “Presidential Suite” I’ve stayed in at Hilton properties have the same issues. Stuff that’s broken, worn down, and dirty. The last time I had this happen, we canceled the rest of our stay as the staff wasn’t willing to do anything to fix any issues. As we were leaving we walked by one of their other “lesser suites” and it was FAR NICER than their “Presidential Suite” smaller, but everything in the smaller suite was at least 5 years newer, the carpets werent worn out, and it was absolutely *spotless*. This is definitely a problem with the brand as a whole. A completely inexplicable one IMHO.

Buffalo native relocated to VA, here. Jake is 100% on his call of stay at Niagara-on-the-Lake and day trip to the falls! Niagara Falls has always been a bit grim outside of the Falls themselves.

[adellis]

Stayed at the Hilton last year and this review is spot on. I preferred it way back in the day with its original pool, it has since lost all its charm.

[johnathansawicki]

Wow! We stayed at the other Presidential Suite (similar layout - just on the other side of the floor) back in 2019 and so much of this was true back then. So many things not working or not clean. Balcony (and whole room there in fact) was locked off. And the hotel wasn’t too helpful with offering any fixed, or any Keurig pods. We got it as a day-of paid upgrade, which was fun and fine value. But I’d absolutely not pay for this room. I always wondered if the other suite was similar, not surprised to see that’s the case. Great video though, thanks for sharing! Brought back a few laughs of a fun (but quirky) night.

[smugshrug]

holy sh*t... you got FLEECED! I wonder how the Hilton PR folks would feel if they saw this. you might get a very nice discount off your next stay...

[imeldahiggins-wiffle]

Wow!!! $1600 and you get cold pastry items for breakfast? No complimentary tea or coffee? THAT right there would be the straw...great video!!!! Thank you!!!

[willgander]

I actually choked on my food when you mentioned the 18 dollar cold cereal... wtf is that price????
