Best Western St. Catharines Hotel & Conference Centre

Relaxed Comfort Minutes from Niagara’s Music Scene

Modern and comfortable, the Best Western St. Catharines Hotel & Conference Centre blends convenience with laid-back charm in the heart of St. Catharines. Just a short drive from popular Niagara-area music venues and only 12 miles from Niagara Falls, this hotel offers a great base for concert-goers looking to mix music with a little sightseeing. With both indoor and outdoor pools, an on-site restaurant, and even a mini-golf course, it's more than just a place to crash after the show.
Rooms are equipped with free Wi-Fi, a microwave, fridge, and flat-screen cable TV — everything you need for a relaxed stay, whether you're pre-gaming or winding down.

Why Concert-goers love it

You’re just a quick ride from major music venues in Niagara and St. Catharines, with easy highway access and free parking. Post-show, the hotel offers a peaceful retreat — no downtown noise here. Late check-in at 4:00 PM gives you flexibility to travel in, and with check-out at 11:00 AM, you’ve got time to recover from the night before. The on-site Wrigleys Sports Bar is ideal for a casual drink or bite after the encore, and the fitness center — now with a Peloton Bike and Treadmill — means you can work off last night's indulgences.

Who this Hotel is great for

- Groups of friends road-tripping to catch a show near Niagara Falls
- Solo travelers ticking off their bucket-list band
- Couples making a romantic music weekend out of it
- Fans who prefer a quiet place to relax after the concert
- Budget-conscious music lovers who want value without sacrificing comfort

Food and Drink Options

The on-site Wrigleys Sports Bar and Lounge serves breakfast, lunch, and dinner, making pre- and post-show meals a breeze. While there’s no 24-hour room service, the in-room microwave and fridge are perfect for late-night snacks. Breakfast is available for early risers or those recovering from a late-night encore. Plus, there are plenty of eateries within a short drive.

Nightlife Options

While the hotel doesn’t offer live music on-site, the sports bar provides a lively atmosphere to keep the night going. You’re also just a short drive to downtown St. Catharines or Niagara Falls, where you’ll find bars, lounges, and late-night spots to extend the party.

What People Say

Guests love the hotel’s clean and spacious rooms, friendly staff, and easy access to Niagara attractions. Many reviewers mention the value for money, especially with the included breakfast and free parking. The pools and mini-golf are a hit with groups and families tagging along for the ride.

Areas for Improvement

Some guests mention the hotel’s decor is a bit dated in places, and the location is more suburban than central — but for those driving to a concert, that just means less noise and more parking. The lack of walkable nightlife may be a downside if you're hoping to bar-hop on foot.

The Bottom Line

A solid, budget-friendly base for concert-goers who want comfort, quiet, and easy access to Niagara’s music scene — with pools, a gym, and late-night bites to make your stay complete.
