“Unlike the luxe five-star brands invading the area, the Keefer Mansion Inn radiates Gilded Age opulence and is a refreshing tonic.“
London Free Press, Doug English, Travel Writer
“Keefer Inn gets it right!”
Buffalo News, Janice Okun, Restaurant Reviewer
“The main courses, were pleasant if not extraordinary”
Toronto Star, Martha Chapman, Travel Writer
“The Keefer Inn is slated to make a name for itself, not just on its history but based on the divine furnishings: hand-made reproductions ranging from four-poster beds to paintings. Add a charming restaurant, and you have a delightful base from which to explore the Falls and the 70-plus wineries of the Peninsula”
Toronto Sun, Doug English, Travel Writer
“Keefer will satisfy inn crowd!”
Justin McHenry, Wine Expert and Writer
“The rooms are magnificent and the restaurant superb! I had lamb which was amongst the best dishes I have ever eaten. Their wine list features almost nothing but good Niagara Region wines as should all the other restaurants in the area. If you want a treat while touring Niagara, stay and dine at The Keefer Mansion”

The Keefer Mansion is a real find. The home, its remarkable history, beautiful rooms are outdone only by the quality of the food.
I look forward to dining there again whenever I am in the neighborhood.

Last week my friends and I were at the Mansion for the first time, celebrating a farewell for our dear friend! I could not imagine a more fitting setting to give our guest then your establishment. Your staff was so wonderful and accommodating, and the food fantastic!
A resounding thank you for making our evening memorable...and a special thanks to Terry who gave us the best service ever. It was like coming home to an old friend!!!!
We'll be seeing you again next week...and this time...I'll be introducing a whole new circle of friends.
(P.S. Beautiful job on the restoration of such a marvellous home!!!!)
Have a great day and much success to you!

Gerry and I would like to thank you so much for our Keefer Mansion experience. Your historical tour was so informative, and the whole dinner was superb. We felt so comfortable in the dining area, we felt just like we were in a house not a restaurant, the service was great the wine went down very smoothly and we all enjoyed and will cherish the memory we made that evening and night, on our 25th Anniversary, a very good time was had by all we couldn't have picked a better place.
Thank you so much for the opportunity to enjoy the Keefer Mansion to its fullest.

I had the opportunity to view the house in its early stages of restoration. Last week, I saw it again for the first time since its completion and I was very impressed. The guest rooms are beautifully appointed and the decor and atmosphere of the main floor certainly transport one back to an era of elegance. Add to this a delicious dining experience and friendly staff and one can't feel anything less than pampered and welcome. Thank you for a wonderful birthday.

Just a note to thank everyone for our truly great experience at Keefer Mansion. The dinner was excellent and the rooms are exquisite. Top that off with an in room massage from your spa service and it was the perfect overnight getaway. Congratulations on providing Thorold with such a magnificent Inn. We look forward to future visits.

From the moment we stepped onto the grounds, everyone went out of their way to make our brief stay a memorable one. The Inn itself is beautiful and lends itself to creating a very relaxed and pampered environment, and every staff member with whom we interacted was most attentive and friendly, with no pretensions.
The tasting menu was excellent, and thanks so much for the offering and personally presenting us with a 5th course – totally unexpected and much appreciated! He is a wealth of information on food, and we appreciated the time he took to show us his herb garden and educate us on the joys of tomatoes!
Please convey our sincere thanks to everyone associated with the Inn – we will surely be back!

We visited the Keefer Mansion for dinner last weekend and had a very enjoyable evening. It truly is dining in luxury. The home is gorgeous; the food is delicious and served beautifully. We were very impressed with the maitre’d, who greeted, served and worked the bar with such compassion and efficiency. She was serving 20 guests that evening and did her job in a confident manner. Thank you so much for introducing us to the Keefer Mansion Inn— we will invite more friends.
