The property of Riverbend Inn & Vineyard dates back to 1809 when a modest stone farmhouse was built. We honor that heritage by giving all guests to Niagara-on-the-Lake a warm, inviting home with a sense of history at every turn.
From the grand chandelier in the lobby and the archival photographs dotting the corridors through to the furnishings and vaulted ceilings in our 21 rooms and suites, a stay at Riverbend is as charming as a visit to the wineries down the road.
Complementing any stay is the cuisine at Oaklands, featuring seasonal dishes expressive of the region and handpicked wines to pair. When the weather allows, Ansley Sparkling Terrace is also open with a collection of local sparkling wines.
Facing west, Oaklands offers unobstructed views of the sun setting over idyllic rows of grapevines, capping off a magical experience in wine country.
Riverbend is the premier hotel in Niagara for thoughtful, productive corporate meetings or other social events. Everything is custom-tailored to your needs with catering offered by our in-house team and access to a series of offsite activities.
Oaklands celebrates simplicity, the season and a sense of place. We connect people to place through respect for our history, our land, artisans and our commitment to warm hospitality and service.
Open for breakfast, lunch and dinner (times vary), Oaklands at Riverbend takes its culinary cues from Executive Chef Ross Midgley as well as Niagara’s ingredient-driven cuisine, rooted in the breadth and depth of global French culinary influence.
Weather permitting, Ansley Sparkling Terrace features seasonally inspired lighter fare with Niagara’s own sparkling wine and creative cocktails.
Includes a double occupancy guest-room, a prix fixe three-course dinner at Oaklands starting with an amuse bouche created by Chef Ross Midgley and an experience at one of our three Niagara-on-the-Lake partner estates (Peller Estates, Trius Winery or Wayne Gretzky Estates)
