Airport Guide
Compare 5 airports near Buffalo
For the majority of travelers, Buffalo Niagara International Airport (BUF) is the only practical option located within Buffalo itself, offering direct, affordable, and high-frequency ground transportation options like the NFTA Metro bus or local taxi services. The other airports are located in neighboring cities and should only be considered if flight options or pricing at the main hub are insufficient. Toronto Pearson International Airport (YYZ) acts as a major international gateway; it is further away but served by consistent cross-border coach services. John C. Munro Hamilton International Airport (YHM), Billy Bishop Toronto City Airport (YTZ), and Region of Waterloo International Airport (YKF) are situated in Ontario and require significant travel, including international border crossings, which can add substantial time and cost. Travelers opting for these secondary airports should prioritize pre-arranged, private flat-rate shuttles or taxi services to manage the complexity of the international journey, as public transit between these airports and Buffalo is generally not integrated and requires multiple transfers.

Breakfast is too simple. Just some cakes, milk and biscuits and such. Can't expect breakfast here at all.
The room rate is pretty good inside. Clean and upscale, the bathroom has flush faucets in different directions, the toilet seat is insulated, and there is a flushing function. There is also a hot spring on the first floor, which is very comfortable and highly recommended.FromUS$296

Heat in our room wasn't working at 1:30 am. Keith was responsive and although he couldn't get the heat to work, he supplied us with a couple heating towers. We were also given a discount on our final bill due to our inconvenience, which we greatly appreciated. Also, we waited quite awhile to order our breakfast (Starbucks). Otherwise we enjoyed our stay and would certainly stay at this hotel again in the future.FromUS$192

The room was nice, but the breakfast was a rip-off. It cost 800 bucks more per night than the room without breakfast, but it was not a buffet breakfast at all. It was a $15 voucher for purchasing food at a restaurant that was much higher than the market price. After choosing, you had to pay tax, and after paying the tax, the waiter would ask for a tip (and the attitude of the restaurant waiter was not very good, much worse than the hotel front desk). It was terrible.FromUS$299

The hotel is located in the center of Buffalo, very close to the Civic Center. The hotel is decorated in a classic style. I booked a suite, not including breakfast. The western restaurant on the first floor of the hotel can be ordered by myself. The room is very large, with kitchen, living room, 2 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, very much like it! The hotel service is good, the front desk is very welcoming and can store luggage.FromUS$124
