Review:: Sterling Inn & Spa

We went away for Valentine's Day.  Our first night away without the Bug.  It was so tough to leave her, more for me than DH, but breastfeeding and co-sleeping are two of my favorites things.  The best ways to spend time with my baby.

We went back to the hotel where we went for our honeymoon two and a half years ago.  Sterling Inn & Spa in Niagara Falls.  It was comforting to know we were just a short drive away if we needed to get home quickly or if I just missed her too much and wanted to come home... Didn't happen though :)

Sterling is a beautiful hotel.  They refer to themselves as a "Boutique Hotel" and they definitely live up to it.  From the moment you walk into the lobby,with the grand staircase, the fireplace and the modern decor, you feel the richness and luxury.  Everything seems so upscale and posh, I was worried about feeling out of place as an average mom but the staff are amazing.  Everyone is warm and welcoming, they all go above and beyond to make your stay special.

Like I said before, we stayed at Sterling for our honeymoon.  When I called to book our room the gentleman asked how we had heard about the hotel, I told him we had stayed there previously.  I don't know if he looked up what room we had stayed in or if it was pure coincidence, but we got the exact same room.  Walking in the door felt like coming home.



And then there is that bathroom, that everyone dreams about... A shower that you could fit about ten people in and a bathtub that is definitely made for two::



They also have a mini-kitchen, complete with sink, coffee machine, and mini fridge::

Another great service that Sterling provides is complimentary breakfast in bed.  The put a door hanger in your room, you choose what time you would like it delivered and the options you would like (coffee, tea or both; apple juice, orange juice or both; etc) and then hang it outside your door by 8pm::

And this is what arrived the following morning at 9:45 (the latest time we could choose)::

 Overall, our stay was fantastic and I would recommend this hotel to anyone looking for a quick, romantic getaway or even an extended stay.  The price is phenomenal for what you get, and the stay is much more appealing than some of the other chain hotels.

Check back tomorrow for my review of the restaurant inside the hotel AG Inspired Cuisine
