The Spotlight on Pillar And Post Inn & Spa

Historic Charm Meets Concert Night Comfort

Modern comfort wrapped in rustic elegance, the Pillar And Post Inn & Spa is a charming retreat in Niagara-on-the-Lake, just minutes from the area's vibrant performance halls and theaters. Housed in a beautifully restored 19th-century canning factory, this full-service resort-style hotel blends luxury with laid-back vibes—perfect for unwinding after a night of live music.
The hotel boasts an outdoor swimming pool, a heated indoor saltwater pool, and a full-service spa, offering a peaceful contrast to the buzz of concert energy. Whether you're here for a music weekend or a quick overnight after a show, you'll find plenty to love.

Why Concert-goers love it

The location is tucked away enough for a restful night, but still close to local music venues and downtown Niagara-on-the-Lake. It’s just a mile to the bustling main street, filled with bars, cafés, and performance spaces. The hotel offers a complimentary shuttle connecting sister properties, adding a flexible travel perk. With 24-hour front desk service and plenty of cozy lounge areas, late-night returns are no problem.

Who this Hotel is great for

  • Groups of friends looking for something upscale and social
  • Solo travelers treating themselves to a spa weekend and a concert
  • Couples planning a romantic music-filled getaway
  • Fans wanting a quieter post-concert recovery in a spa environment
  • Budget-conscious music fans who still want a touch of luxury (especially when splitting rooms)

Food and Drink Options

The on-site Cannery Restaurant offers breakfast, lunch, and dinner, including a late-night pub menu at Vintages Wine Bar and Lounge. There’s also poolside patio dining in warmer months, and breakfast is available—perfect for those who sleep in after a night out. While there’s no 24/7 room service, the on-site dining options are varied and high quality.

Nightlife Options

While the hotel leans more spa than scene, it’s within walking distance to downtown bars and lounges. The hotel bar is a cozy spot to unwind with a local wine or craft cocktail, and you’re never far from the action thanks to the shuttle service.

What People Say

Guests rave about the peaceful atmosphere, spotless rooms, and the relaxing spa facilities. Many mention the hotel’s beautiful setting and say it’s ideal for recharging after a full day (or night) out. The complimentary activities like yoga and food tastings are often highlighted as a fun bonus.

Areas for Improvement

Some guests note that the hotel can feel a bit quiet or remote if you're looking for a party scene. The Wi-Fi can be spotty in certain areas, and while the spa is amazing, treatments book up fast—so reserve early if that’s on your list.

The Bottom Line

If you're looking for a relaxing, upscale home base after a concert in Niagara-on-the-Lake, Pillar And Post Inn & Spa delivers comfort, charm, and a touch of indulgence.

Great for Shaw Festival shows....

Liked: We had little time to use the facilities, our fault. They looked nice and busy. The room was a generous size, which we loved.
Disliked: For the cost, it would be nice to have a continental breakfast included in the price, since the only option for breakfast was a buffet. Our mattress was okay, but I could feel metal springs; it could use a new one, room 260. Would we return? YESWe happened to arrive as a large group was checking it. It was very chaotic; they should have a separate area for large groups. We had to wait in line for a while to check in. Bathrooms are large, with one sink, the countertop is nicely sized, but the shower has no place for women to place their leg while shaving, which is a safety concern.

Dissappointing - far prefer the...

Liked: Walking through the beautiful garden.
Disliked: Our room needs some attention with painting, and fixing the cupboard door which was very difficult to open, and it made a loud squeak when you opened it. The air conditioning was very noisy and the whole unit had to be replaced so we could get some sleep. The bathroom was small for two people to use, and the mattress on one of the beds was uncomfortable as it had a ridge down the centre of the mattress. The hotel does not have an elevator to get to the second floor.

Superb

Liked: the Cannery dining room was great.
Disliked: the room was good but the bath room was not. the shower was hard to operate (stiff handle) the shower head squeels and the fan roars loudly. Also you might want to invest in a non slip bathtub application.
