Niagara Falls

[Anonymous]

We're planning a trip (no kids!) for august 29th-sept. 1st.

Any information/hints/etc are needed and welcome!

We'd love a view of the falls, but trying to keep costs down to a reasonable point as well (prefer not to spend more than $150-$200/night if possible for a hotel. Are there any websites better than others for finding great deals?

Does it matter if you pay beforehand in USD or at the hotel (in cd?) Is it even possible to pay in CD instead of USD if the trip is booked ahead, or will they just charge the USD rate?

Thanks for any help!

If you use a credit card and the hotel is in canada side- then, it'll be converted to USD when you get there- unfortunately not a great rate and potentially some international surcharges depending on credit card. I never tried this- but you could ask about reserving w/ cc and then paying cash in cdn? I think most people for convenience sake just use cc.. frommers and fodors are great for location info.. have fun!!!!!!!!!
