HI-Buffalo Niagara

Property Description

HI-Buffalo Niagara is a great base for visiting Niagara Falls, one of the top travel destinations in North America. As Rough Guide USA puts it, 'Once you've seen Niagara Falls, from as many different angles as you can manage, there's no point in sticking around, and you'll have a better time heading on to Buffalo.' There is frequent city bus service from Buffalo to The Falls, return fare $3.50. Take your passport along (and visa if required) so you'll be able to enjoy the Canadian side as well.

Those with reservations who want to check in outside desk hours (8-10am and 5-10pm) simply contact the hostel in advance by phone or e-mail to receive instructions. There is no lockout or curfew for registered guests.

Please note that quoted prices are the rates for members of Hostelling International. Those who are not members will pay an additional $3 per person per night at check-in.

Our modern, clean, friendly hostel is located in the heart of Buffalo's theatre and entertainment districts. New York's second largest city, Buffalo is known world-wide for its architectural treasures; only Chicago boasts a larger collection of buildings by America's foremost architects. In addition, renowned landscape architect F.L. Olmstead designed Buffalo's park system. The acclaimed Albright-Knox Art Gallery boasts one of the top modern collections in the world.

Most guidebooks comment on Buffalo's lively nightlife scene. The hostel is located a short walk from the centre of activity - and just 1km from the Anchor Bar and Restaurant, where Buffalo chicken wings were invented.

Let's Go USA says that a combination of big-city perks and small-town warmth make Buffalo a soothing place to spend some time. Indeed, many travelers stay a day--or several--longer than they originally planned.

We hope to see you at HI-Buffalo Niagara!
