The lights, sights, sounds, music, smells, and energy are infectious and fun. Ferris wheel, roller coasters, mini golf, arcades, and all the neon signs made it so fun. We only did two rides, the ferris wheel was fun and a great way to see. The Franken Coaster was thrilling and scary! By the end of the night, my wallet was lighter, my camera was full, and my inner childhood was so joyous! Individual rides are quite expensive, the key is to buy a multi pack that will save you lots of money and much more hours of entertainment and happiness.

The reason for the 3 stars is just the prices for everything is astonishing. I get it's all tourist so that's the reason but definitely figure out what you want to see and do before coming down as things add up. Also, it's called a Hill for a reason. Trouble walking, or young or super tired/ sore this street is a pain to walk up. Did it many times and boy are my legs sore. The lights and sounds are nice to see at night. Could be super crowded at times. Overall 7.5 out of 10

Racing duel mat slides, a toilet bowl type slide and a few other ones. The slides are basic and fun as they can be. What they fall short is with the Wave Pool. The size is tiny. The wave comes every 40 minutes and last 3 minutes. Not the biggest waves either since the area is tiny. Rude lifeguards as well. You work with kids, you can atleast talk with them when asking a question. The outdoor pool has no thrills, just basketball nets and a handful of lounge chairs. After a kids vomited they had to Remove everyone from the wave pool for sanitation reasons obviously but then never gave an update on how long. After about 30 minutes , it was back open. Like I said my older kids went on every slide and that was enjoyable. The rest kept us very underwhelming. The price is steep but again it's a tourist attraction. Didn't try any food or drink. I would not recommend or come again. Overall a 5.7 out of 10

We wanted to ride at night to see the lights on the Falls. It was a rainy kind of day but it was…read morestill nice out. We bought tickets at the kiosk there were some other options for other places on Clifton Hill. We opted to just get a ticket for the Wheel. There was a bit of a line, but the wait was minimal. The nice thing with it being a little busy, they still let you just be with your party. They didn't mix others in your pod for the ride. It is a climate control so you won't be cold or hot depending on the day. The view is great but on a rainy day I couldn't get any great pictures of the falls even though we would see them. Great experience for anyone young or old. And you get to see all of clifton hill as well.

We bought a pass where you could choose 3 different attractions and save some dollars as well. This was one of the attraction that we all enjoyed doing! It felt scary coming inside because of the weird lighting (as shown in the picture) they also have some weird looking mannequins inside the mirror. Lol. I don't know. Maybe I'm just a scaredy cat because my 9 year old nephew was totally ok with it. I think it was just me who felt scared about the whole experience? Lol. It was not too crowded inside although you'll bump into a few people who are also trying to find their way out of the maze. It was a fun activity for the whole family! It's also nice that it was cool inside the mirror maze. I recommend this place for adults and kids!

You start with two pre-show history lessons, ensuring your mind is as thoroughly pre-soaked in local lore as your clothes are about to be in actual water. As you're gracing flying , the ride lifts you up and hurls virtual scenery, gusting wind, and mist directly into your face. It is basically Disney's Soarin' Ride, but the Canadian version. The movement is so surprisingly convincing that you might briefly forget your feet are safely hovering mere inches above a carpeted floor...so fun! Just make sure to arrive at your exact ticketed time, unless you enjoy getting publicly scolded by park staff for being fifteen minutes early! $33 is rather pricy, but it was included in my Niagara Falls Pass, which you should purchase as well.

My husband, nineteen-month-old daughter, and I thoroughly enjoyed our day at Marineland. There was…read moresooo much to see and do. We enjoyed seeing the dolphins, beluga whales, and sea lions at a show. They and the trainers were terrific, and the show was also educational. We spent a lot of time in both Friendship and Arctic Coves watching the beluga whales both above and below ground. They are beautiful creatures and so hypnotizing to watch. My daughter and I did the beluga encounter at Arctic Cove. She was a little too young yet, I think, and got too nervous to pet Skyla, but I loved feeding and petting her. The park was super clean, relaxing, and literally every single employee we talked to was friendly, knowledgeable, and kind. We rode several rides (Black Dragon coaster was especially fun) and enjoyed all the animal exhibits, land and sea. We stayed 10:00-4:40. There was a wide variety of foods at the restaurant near the gift shop (Hungry Bear? Spacing on the name.). We definitely recommend this park to others! Left feeling refreshed and very happy.

Now I am having to fight for my pay as the dishonest HR and owners don't want to pay us properly. On top of not entering our hours properly in the payroll and refusing to give me a punch#; so I had to rely on Lan Tran the manager to enter my hours. According to the ADP their payroll for this May 20 pay period they are paying me for 11 hours of work, pay day June 11, 2021. Yet I worked more than 11 hours, and it was during May 2022 not in June 2021. Cause in 2021 we weren't even working, that was during the pandemic. Thankfully I found a better job elsewhere, but still need my paycheck to pay bills.

Would I recommend this place for a first-timer. Sure.

Reducing 1-star due to recent visit (2 years since last)…read more We went on a Friday, expecting reduced crowd volume (non-US holiday). Crowd volume still seemed heavy, but manageable. What wasn't manageable was their processing of entrees to get in. They had a single station to process everyone, and the payment system was taking forever. We arrived at 10am when the pool opened, and didn't actually get in until 11am. A full hour wait is pretty outrageous. Having a second payment station would have made it much quicker. Of course you can expect lower food quality at these types of places, but this was still disappointing. Frozen-pizza quality pizza, for more than a legit pizza, and then they overcooked it on top of that. The waterpark itself was still fun, but eventually our kids will outgrow it. Still good for small kids though (ages 2-8).

It felt like a tropical resort in Ontario. The temperature outside was about 5 degrees Celsius but…read moreyou couldn't tell inside and you really didn't need to leave for any reason (unless you wanted to). Room: Comfortable for 4 people, including an infant. They happily supplied a crib but you can't reserve it ahead of time. You had to request it when you check-in. They will then deliver it to your room within 10 minutes and leave it to you to set it up. Yes, you can hear tons of noise but it's a family resort. We had a technical malfunction during our stay with the door and they were quick to repair it and offering us a different room if we wanted (which we declined). The cable in the room is WEIRD! I wish they had supplied an outline of the stations because it wasn't obvious where to find what. Otherwise, room was clean and comfortable and loved having direct access to the parking lot as well as the hotel. Water park: Tons of fun for young kids! Lots of life jackets for young swimmers. Lifeguards appeared very attentive and were quickly stopping any unruly behaviour. It was nice and warm inside the park and they have a shop that sells anything you might have forgotten...except swim diapers, they don't sell those! Arcade: Everything was working when we were there and lots of fun for the kids. Lots of options for prizes as well. The oasis poolside snack bar, which is fully licensed, is my new favourite place. I made no less than 8 trips there during my stay. Their mocktails and cocktails were delicious. Food was fresh and 4 flavours of dippin' dots as well. The only breakfast option is a paid all-you-can-eat buffet. $10 for kids and $20 for adults. This part was frustrating as my child was sick most of the weekend and if you just wanted a cup of juice you were stuck. Also, I was never hungry enough to warrant the adult buffet price. I just wanted coffee... For those who only want a cup of coffee in the morning: they do offer complimentary coffee and tea to the room or you can go to the lobby and pay $2.80 for a delicious cup of coffee that comes out of a preset machine. After my first cup, that became my second favourite part of the hotel (after the Oasis snack bar). The one downside? The front desk staff! On Saturday morning, while I was enjoying the coffee described above, I saw at least 3 different parties at the desk asking to speak to management for various issues. On our checkout day, I wanted to delay our checkout as I had 2 sick children and we had an hour before an important meeting. My son just wanted to stay in bed while we waited. Upon asking the front desk if we could delay our checkout I heard a curt "no" on the phone before they hung up. Instead he used the little energy he had, to walk around the arcade for the hour. It wouldn't deter me from staying there again but just wanted to let others know, they aren't flexible on their policies. Overall, it was an amazing weekend away! I would definitely stay there again!

Came here with the Clifton Hill Fun Pass. This is a 3D zombie shooting experience. Your chair will…read moremove and that's about it. Nothing too intense. If you think the moving chair will be a problem, no worries, you can ask them for a static seat. This attraction did not live up to the hype. While waiting in line, you are given various info about the ride, including the fact that everyone will get a score at the end. However, only the top 4 players got a score. When we asked the worker why that's the case, they said they didn't know, but that it hasn't shown scores for everyone for as long as he's worked there, so it's "normal" we didn't see it (okay, but then why are we told we'll see it while waiting in line?). Also, while in queue, we could see the live scores of the people currently playing (along with a photo of them in their chair). That's great... Except only those that aren't actually playing sees this. Again, how does that make any sense? The 3D glasses were also not that great. They were old and blurry. My friends all said theirs was the same. It worked, but it was quite blurry. Another problem is that there's no way to see which dot on the screen is yours. My friend said she shot a single point to the far left and realized the laser landed much higher than where she was pointing, so hers was unfortunately not accurate at all. Two of the top 4 players were sitting right behind us. As the scores were displayed, one of them said, "I held down the trigger the entire time!" The other responded, "Same!". I don't think that's how laser guns should work, but yeah, don't bother continuously pulling the trigger as you'll only risk tiring out your hand. Just spray and pray lol. I don't know exactly how long each ride lasted, but it definitely wasn't super long. Imo, not worth it unless you have the Fun Pass. Note: If you're carrying things with you, you'll either have to keep it in your lap or on the floor. There's no storage area.

This was a fun ride!…read more Zombie attack was part of our Clifton Hill fun pass, it's normally $10 to get in and I would say it's worth it if you get the pass. The ride last about 10 minutes. Guests are strapped into a bucket-style seat that moves, vibrates, shimmys, and shakes during the interactive game. Users wear 3D glasses and have a Lazer scoped gun available to shoot zombies. These aren't your typical zombies as these ones are fast and extremely aggressive, so if you're not on your A-game you're going down. The game is fast-paced and there is a lot of movement and action on the screen and in the seat so if you can't handle this type of motion this ride might not be for you. All-in-all, if I was in town and looking for a fun time I would definitely come back.
