Clifton Street was nutty – there were so many businesses crammed into every square foot of available space that you could hardly walk. Seems a travesty of justice to have put Hard Rock Café, Burger King, Wax Museums, haunted houses, water parks and TONS more into a small space with a natural wonder. If you stay closer to the needle/casino,... more

We went to the HOUSE OF FRANKENSTEIN to be scared. The outside said LIVE ACTORS. We saw none. We walked through and the path to take was not really well marked. It appears several items inside had sensors to trigger them that were lit so you knew what was coming. However several of the sensors did not appear to work.... more

We were staying at the Comfort Inn, Clifton Hill, so we were smack in the center of this tourist area for four days. Upon arriving in Clifton Hill my husband commented that it was "like being in the middle of a circus" and in a way, it is. He said it wasn't at all what he was expecting to see.... more

Clifton Hill has many attractions. I went in May/June 2008 and during that time they had passes you could buy that gave you 5 or 6 different things to do, such as the sky wheel, ripley's believe it or not, mini golf, arcade, a moving ride in the arcade and so on. It really did save money because most places... more

Clifton Hill is a good place to go if you want to visit tons of wax museums and attempt to make your way through the ridiculous crowds that gather there. There is nothing to see of value. This is just a tourist trap. more

We are a couple in our 30's with no children. So we walked through a few times, took in what we wanted. I would NOT want to go with a few kids of different ages all wanting to everything! It was touristy, but not pushy. more

Hear a name like Clifton Hill and you might conjure up images of strolling down tiny streets lined with art galleries and quaint cafes. Nothing could be further from the truth here. Clifton Hill is the armpit of Niagara and an unfortunate representation of why world treasures like the Falls need extreeme protection. Clifton HIll is a mosh pit of... more

Ok so we had to go there but it was a total waste of time. Even the kids werent enthuased. THey played mini golf and went on the ferris wheel but that was all they(and us) were interested in. It was fake, boring and third-rate. Go for a look but dont waste your money. When there is such natural beauty... more

What a great tourist area! Lots of fun stuff for everyone to do and I highly recommend getting a multi attraction pass to save money. Enjoyed a lot of attractions, but the Dracula Haunted House was not worth it (not included in pass). I have been to Haunted houses all over the world and this was subpar and we elected... more

Ahh... Clifton Hill! Before I actually saw Clifton Hill while on vacation, I had read alot about the place being a tourist trap and being jam packed with attractions. I must say the reviews were true! First, let me start by saying that Clifton Hill is indeed a hill. So a word of caution for people who have issues with... more
