It was a good first impression but see the Falls from nearby on the Maid of the Mist was even better

Short elevator ride to top. Great panoramic view of Niagara Falls area. Points of interest locations around top level that shares history of area.

You have to start off with talking about the amazing view while sitting in the rotating restaurant at the top of the tower! It was truly breathtaking and my girlfriend loved it! I surprised her with where we were having dinner at and once she started seeing us getting closer to the needle I think she started to get a... More

I do not reccomend the restaurant. Very overpriced meals, poor service, very disappointing overall. We planned on taking in the buffet but it had not yet opened for the season (you think they would have that noted on line!). We arrived late as we wanted to see the lights on the falls, and were being rushed out before we even... More

Almost nostalgic in style, this is a good spot to get a perspective of the Falls and the surrounding area. Didn't go for the restaurant - seemed pricey - but the view is worth the price of admission. You can find coupon books around town to save a couple of bucks on the admission. The photo-shopped images they offer to... More

Well the view from here down to the falls is great and you will love it. But nearly 20$ for just going up and down is well overpriced.

We visited the Skylon Tower while staying at a nearby Hotel. We had seen the lifts frequently ascending and descending from early in the morning until late at night so we decided to go first thing in the morning (8am). When we arrived (other than staff) we were the only people there and all of the shops in the lower... More

For the price I expected to have a nice quiet dinner while enjoying the view of the "revolving dining" its really foggy that night so I ca not say they're at fault. The food was excellent, the first server we had did an excellent job.Right after our meal is served, I no one came back to check on us, I... More

We had dinner here for a family members birthday. The food was excellent, we were not rushed thru dinner. Saw a fabulous sunset, and after dinner went to the observation deck which is included if you have dinner there, otherwise there is charge.

I am terrifed of heights but did fine here. The view is breathtaking. We actually ate at the revolving dinner room. Keep in mind that if you do not spend enough money on dinner they will charge you an extra fee to ride to the top. I did not like that they advertised another restaruant which was not open. The...
