The Pillar and Post is a landmark hotel in the heart of Niagara on the Lake. It combines modern amenities within a historic setting. Pillar and Post's original structure was built in the late 1890s as a canning factory, and since has been lovingly transformed into a fine Niagara on the Lake hotel. You can still see its original purpose in the clean lines of the brick walls and in the impressive post-and-beam construction. The hotel has a relaxed elegance with sunshine streaming in through skylights, beautiful terra cotta tile floors, indoor and outdoor pools, and an exotic hot springs pool at 100 Fountain Spa. The hotel is now home to The Gardens a 21,000 square foot garden inspired by the Monet Gardens in Giverny, France. This impressive space is planted with thousands of perennials, shrubs, ferns, rose bushes, seasonal flowers and hundreds of trees, complete with stunning water features. Beautiful lighted pathways are woven throughout, making the gardens a uniquely romantic location for celebrations and ceremonies during the day or evening. It is also home to The Outpost a café concept serving fresh sandwiches, cocktails, beer and wine. With our prime location in Niagara-on-the-Lake wine country, attentive service and commitment to the comfort of our guests, Pillar and Post is an ideal location for a romantic spa getaway, business meeting or a family vacation.
