The Best Western Plus Waterfront Hotel sits at 277 Riverside Drive West in downtown Windsor, Ontario, facing the Detroit skyline across the river. It is a mainstream, gay-friendly chain hotel, not a gay venue. Many rooms have river views, and the hotel has an indoor pool, a gym and free breakfast. It scores 4.2 out of 5 from over 3,200 Google reviews. The riverfront trail and Caesars Windsor casino are within walking distance, and the Detroit-Windsor Tunnel is close by if you're crossing into Michigan (bring your passport).

A little dated inside the room. Mine smelled like curry sweat a bit. Pool was closed. Paid 150 usd and 20 cad for parking. Stoped by the restaurant and it was nice. Lobby is updated, view is nice.

Rooms and carpet were dirty and stained. We had a broken lamp in our room. Stained bed sheets and so much dust in the ac unit

The location is ideal. It’s walking distance to restaurants, casinos, and bars. Minutes to the Ambassador Bridge and Detroit-Windsor tunnel. Every room offers a waterfront view. Staff are friendly and polite. The hotel restaurant was impressive. Great service, ambiance and food. At night, the main doors can only be accessed via hotel key which is great. Check in/out was smooth except no one offered info about the hotels amenities, unless asked. Parking is behind the hotel in a public covered garage for $20/day. The streets behind the hotel are a bit sketchy. The pool is currently located in the Double Tree hotel next door and shared with their guests. No hot tub. You have to sign in/out to get an access card. The room was clean and comfortable with a beautiful view of the Detroit skyline. The room has small bottles of hair care, bar soap and lotion. A compact Keurig coffee maker to start the day was a plus. TV was cable and there weren’t many channels. A bit disappointed it wasn’t a smart TV. Overall, it was a good stay and would recommend.

The room was clean, comfortable, and well maintained, and the staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming throughout my stay. I especially appreciated the peaceful atmosphere and the stunning view of the Detroit skyline. Overall, it was a relaxing and enjoyable experience, and I would happily stay here again. Highly recommended! 🌟🏨😊
