Right in the heart of Ontario’s wine country stands a Georgian mansion surrounded by 17 acres of vineyards, manicured lawns and gardens.
With 21 rooms and a gourmet restaurant, Riverbend Inn & Vineyard is the premier hotel in Niagara-on-the-Lake.
The property of Riverbend Inn & Vineyard dates back to 1809 when a modest stone farmhouse was built. We honor that heritage by giving all guests to Niagara-on-the-Lake a warm, inviting home with a sense of history at every turn.
From the grand chandelier in the lobby and the archival photographs dotting the corridors through to the furnishings and vaulted ceilings in our 21 rooms and suites, a stay at Riverbend is as charming as a visit to the wineries down the road.
Complementing any stay is the cuisine at Oaklands, featuring seasonal dishes expressive of the region and handpicked wines to pair. When the weather allows, Ansley Sparkling Terrace is also open with a collection of local sparkling wines.
Facing west, Oaklands offers unobstructed views of the sun setting over idyllic rows of grapevines, capping off a magical experience in wine country.
Surrounded by vineyards, nestled in the heart of wine country and next to the Niagara River.
