Matisse Bed & Breakfast

Breakfast was a gift card to sports bar around the corner

Outdoor area was great. Breakfast was at restaurant next door which was also great

Host was friendly when we checked in.Lovely bed and breakfast.

We enjoyed our stay at the Matisse B&B. It is located in a quite part of town but still close to the main business district.

Great hosts and location

Only likes clean - has quiet pond in back yard - super helpful friendly customer service - close to everything

The room we booked had an issue with shower so John switched us to another property which was nice and suited our needs

Poor communication when checking in. No instructions for using the coffee machine and no milk available. Breakfast not available but arrangements made to eat elsewhere which was ok. Room well equipped and clean.

Excellent host! John was super nice and our stay was very comfortable.

Great location

We weren't sure what we would be facing when we arrived at the Matisse BnB but communication with John was great. He got us settled, gave us gift certificates for a local breakfast restaurant for the 2 mornings we were there, and showed us the best walking route into town. We parked the car and never moved it again until we left, which is how we like to experience a town.

We didn’t like having breakfast away from the house. But when we got there at the golf club for breakfast it was very good. We had a bottle of wine and drank it outside, beautiful, quiet and private.

Great location and clean rooms. Ample parking.

No AC in the room, just on the main floor, so rooms get warm on hot summer days. Bed was ok. Had plenty of towels and just what we needed in the room. Ideal for a few nights.

Really clean, nice room, in an ideal location. John was super kind. One of the intriguing things for me at a B&B is eating breakfast the following morning with the other guests. This was not an option at Matisse, but we did have an option to eat breakfast at a local eatery and the breakfast was fully refunded. There was little to no sound proofing as we could easily hear the guests in the next room.

This was a great place to stay. We booked it because it is close to Jackson Triggs Winery. I wanted to be able to walk to the concert we were attending. Parking was good, our room was small but everything was clean. The bed was good, but the pillows should be replaced. The TV was small and you could not watch it unless you sat on one of the two straight back chairs. There is not breakfast onsite. You have to go to one of two places and send the bill to the owner. He refunds you the cost. I would definitely stay again .

Very small room. Breakfast was off the property

We stayed for 2 nights and would stay again. Pros: spotless, bright airy room, we liked the breakfast arrangement and submitted our receipts to the host who was very responsive and helpful. Lovely garden which was open to us. Bar/ restaurant just next door was good. I didn’t see the washing machine or dryer but I guess it was there. We had a nice few days and would have stayed longer. Cons: the rooms are small and if other people are staying in the other two rooms, you feel a bit conscious of not wanting to make a noise. There is no running water in the kitchen but they make water available to make drinks.

Nice and clean property. We had forget me not room. The bed was firm and comfy blankets. The ceiling fan kept the air conditioning moving. Our washroom was around a corner, and as a warning, the bathtub walls are VERY deep. With arthritic knees showers weren't an option. We didn't use the breakfast option but were refunded the $70. For a one or two night stay, I would recommend.

Great location, clean and quiet house. Backyard garden is beautiful and tranquil. Breakfast at diner around the corner was excellent.

Well located -- easy walk to the main street and theatres. Very clean.

Bed was very firm, parking and proximity to the convenience store were great. Thanks!

We had a very enjoyable weekend stay at Matisse B & B while visiting Niagara-on-the-Lake. There were 3 rooms available and the one we were in was very clean and comfortable, with an ensuite bathroom. The B & B had most items a regular hotel would offer and at an affordable price. Our host John was very easy to get in touch with by text/phone call. Matisse was about 3/4 of a mile walk to the main attractions on Queen Street. As my spouse and I are both in our 60's, we opted to drive instead. There were 2 very close restaurants within walking distance, where we chose to have daily breakfast and dinner. We will definitely consider staying at Matisse B & B, should we be visiting the area again!

Nice place within walking distance to many restaurants and pubs.

Very nice room. We were relocated to a super suite at Weatherpine Inn. The bed was nice but a bit soft for our preference. The upper windows could have used some blinds or curtains. Otherwise, excellent accommodations.

We really enjoyed our stay in this cute home. Very clean, great location and John the property manager was very friendly. There was a shared coffee and tea station which was a nice touch. The breakfast was offered at a couple close locations, we went to Butler’s restaurant which was a couple minutes walk and it was good too. We just had to send a picture of the receipt ($35 max allowed per couple) and it was deducted from our bill.

Very comfortable place. Terrific if attending Shaw.

Great location, friendly & accommodating host. Good value for the area, we enjoyed our stay here.

Terrific quiet location minutes from downtown Niagara on Lake. Host is very hospitable and gave us gracious personal orientation. The breakfast arrangement at nearby restaurant is terrific! Beautiful common spaces and backyard. Would definitely return.

Very nice and clean property. The owner John is providing great amenities

Room and bathroom size was tight, not a place for larger individuals. Furnishings need updating.

Cozy and the breakfast at the Golf Club was great!

Everything was wonderful.

The property is very clean and organized and the manager is very helpful and professional. Only the room set up is a bit strange as the TV screen is put in a corner making it impossible to watch while being in bed. Apart from that everything else is very good

Very clean but a little small. Appreciated the flexibility for breakfast; ate at one of our favorites - the NOTL Golf Club.

A nice quiet Room in a house that is 10 minutes walk to downtown Niagara on the lake. The host met us late as we were delayed getting in on the first night. Note that this property does not make breakfast, but provides coupons to use at local restaurants. These were very nice

Great location

Very clean and quiet

The room was great except the shower is extremely small, so be aware if you are a bigger person. Otherwise, the property was nice with a lot of space to share. Garden was beautiful and the common space very nice. This is a little less than a mile from restaurants and town, but we like to walk. Also, breakfast is not on site, but you have two restaurant choices and host reimburses you. Please note that there is no one there all the time and you may need to wait for someone to let you in upon arrival and to give receipts to upon departure. They use a keypad system, so not the traditional B&B. Still very nice and good price.

Host John is helpful.

Beautify room and garden, very clean, very quiet. We had a marvellous breakfast by the water. The staff is super friendly. Will come back.

Matisse is an excellent bed and breakfast. While BNB's lack some of the privacy of a hotel Matisse has done a great job to give guests the best experience. The off site breakfast options were very good and fit well in our schedule. The room and bathrooms were very clean and the yard was lovely to sit outside and have a glass of wine.

lovely well maintained home. Garden needs some TLC. Very clean!

Bed and Breakfast but no breakfast on site, host covers breakfast off site We were a bit disappointed wanted the full Bed and Breakfast experience. Also the lower floor has a very musty smell the room was great but the bathroom was across the hall which was annoying

I chose this place because there are not reasonable priced hotels close to the city. I don't like to drive at night after a show. I am not a B&B person I guess. Place was clean and had plenty of supplies. The owner doesn't live in the facility. The breakfast was offer in an adjacent restaurant or at the club house of the golf club a mile away.

We really enjoyed this property Fresh, very clean, great location with a friendly owner We would recommend Ray & Anne

We had a lovely stay. Would recommend this b&b to all my friends.

Beautiful and clean home. Owner was very helpful and accommodating. Lovely stay!

John is friendly and informative. Room was very clean but small/cramped. The TV is located in the corner near the head of the bed and very inconvenient for watching. We were able to walk to the main business district, restaurant and theater. We were surprised to find out that breakfast was NOT ON SITE and we needed to go to one of two restaurants for our breakfast. The restaurants were good especially the one at the golf club, however, we were a disappointed that breakfast was not on site. That's part of being at a B&B. I see that other people have commented on this. Maybe the price should be reduced and advertised as "accommodations only".

Good B&B for a night or two. Walkable to downtown (a good walk), some wineries and dining options.

A bed and breakfast without the breakfast…. We did get the cost of our breakfasts reimbursed, but it wasn’t the experience we hoped for. Needed to use our car to get into the town center. A reasonable spot to stay, but not “exceptional “

All good!

We had a wonderful stay at Matisse B&B. It was very quiet and relaxing. We had one breakfast at the local golf clubhouse where we dined while looking out over Lake Ontario. Another day we ate a delicious breakfast at a nearby restaurant. Breakfast was included in the cost of accommodation. We found the town to be very walkable. We enjoyed the Shaw Festival, Fort Henry, and winetasting at a local winery/vineyard. Matisse B&B was our "home away from home" ... a comfortable place to return to in the evening.

BED BUT NO BREAKFAST ON SITE. Pros: located near central Niagara-on-the-Lake. Comfortable bed with ample closet space. Clean. Front door required a code to enter. The owner/manager John was friendly and informative when he met us to allow us in. Cons: No breakfast is offerred on site which is weird for a B&B. You have to go to one of 2 nearby restaurants and John will deduct the cost from your final bill. Not convenient if you are expecting to eat on site. John does not stay in the house while guests are there overnight which we thought was uncomfortable. Room 1 has no ensuite bathroom. You have to go across the hallway to access your own private bathroom. I had asked prior to arriving whether each room had its own bathroom which we were told "yes". it never occurred to us that it would be located outside the room!

Some noise from the street

Host was pleasant, attentive, and easy to contact. He took time to answer questions and suggest interesting local features. Room and property were clean and well supplied and decorated. Would highly recommend this.

Lovely, well-located bed and breakfast.

The host (John) was very kind and helpful. He gave us many good recommendations for things to do in NOTL. The accommodation was cute, clean and comfortable. There is a beautiful, shady yard to enjoy and we were glad we could walk to everything. Rather than having breakfast at the house, John said we should just send him a pic of our breakfast receipt and he reimbursed us for it! We think that’s a great option.

Everything was nice

Everything was as stated. Very clean and professional. Location offers an enjoyable walk to the highlights of Niagara on the Lake. Would definitely stay again!

Relaxing, quiet, beautilful property. Highly recommend. Owner, John, is delightful.

The rooms at the Matisse are very small. On the other hand they are immaculate, as if new (maybe they are new). Instead of breakfast we were given credit at restaurants. We missed breakfast-table conversations.

Had to leave property for breakfast. That was not stipulated

Home was very inviting clean and quiet. Breakfast was superb! Convenient for shopping, eateries and theatrical plays which we enjoyed all of the above! Would like to thank our host and hostess for a great escape from family life for just a night! Amanda &Ty

Janet was welcoming and lovely. Excellent breakfast. Quiet, comfortable, clean. Perfect B and B.

Excellent location, beautiful premises and the breakfasts were fantastic!

Hostess was the best... well prepared and ready to help with any needs... recemmend this place to all... The grounds were amazing as well... we thoroughly enjoyed taking advantage of the comfort provided to take in the beautiful garden and evening sounds.

The breakfast was soòoo good. And such a nice home

Delightful stay. Clean and the breakfast was amazing. Excellent location.

Wonderful stay and lovely breakfast. A kind and thoughtful host.

Beautiful B&B!

Excellent homemade breakfast Beautiful garden space Room and shower were small Close to tourist attractions

Great property, very quiet room, very clean. The hostess was fantastic, breakfasts were wonderful (including fresh peaches!). Very affordably priced as well!

Great hostess!

Janet was a very friendly and gracious host. Breakfast was interesting and very tasty Would definitely go back .

Everything was lovely and we would definitely stay again!

Hostess was very helpful and friendly. Exceptional breakfasts.

Our interaction with Janet and Guy, the owners, was truly delightful. Janet prepared an incredible breakfast, and Guy's guidance on local wineries and point of interests was very helpful. The really go out of their way to accomodate guests. The property was immaculate and provided a secure and clean environment. Without a doubt, it was a memorable and worthwhile experience. Stayed there one night.

All very clean, information, excellent breakfast, good location and great facilities. we would definitely go back.

We loved our 5 night stay at Matisse. Janet is super knowledgeable about the area attractions and has a wealth of tips on wineries to visit & how to get to them . Both E bikes & pedal bikes right nearby. There is a convenience store across the street with a huge variety of groceries & sundries. It is just over a km to walk to Queen St where the quaint shops & restaurants are. The breakfasts are large, tasty & innovative! You won’t need to have lunch till mid afternoon!

We loved this B & B! Meticulously clean, comfortable bed and an amazing host who made the best breakfast. The location is easy walking distance to the heart of town. I will say the room we stayed in had windows facing the road- which is very noisy, esp as night. And the shower would be a very tight squeeze for any larger person. These were not issues for us really, but thought the info might help the next person choose a room. Would definitely come back for another stay!

We loved our stay at Matisse & highly recommend it to others. The was very charming, clean & comfortable. Janet provided an amazing breakfast..I'd love to have the recipes! The back gardens were perfect for relaxing with a glass of wine in the evening. The location was great for walking or biking into town. We only stayed one night but would definitely consider coming back for 2 or more nights in the future.

The breakfasts were excellent and each unique. Every need is addressed without asking: coffee kitchenette, angled mirror, night light showing the way to bathroom. Appreciated the personal info about parking and other community notes and the personalized quality toiletries. Loved it.

Great hosts, no surprises, good price point and knowledgeable advice.

Wonderful host,delicious breakfasts. Would recommend highly

Excellent breakfast. Janet was very helpful and provided a bagged breakfast the second day as we had to leave early. Janet was a very friendly hostess who was very welcoming.

The room was very clean and there was so much attention to detail. Janet the host was friendly and open and we loved the breakfast.

Janet and Guy were AMAZING hosts. So friendly, kind, informative, beautiful home and neighborhood. Food was terrific, way above and beyond. We felt "Connected " to Janet from first sight. We are so thankful we chose this destination for part of our dream " 25th anniversary trip- 3 years late". Guy is fun to listen to being a Frenchman, and personality is contagious. A must go.to and well worth place to stay. The bed was comfortable and almost like home. Amenities were terrific. Sad they are trying to sell it.

Liked everything. Disliked nothing

We had a great stay. The room was spotless and the bed very comfortable. It is very close to everything that Niagara on the Lake has to offer. The breakfasts were unbelievable ... we haven't eaten that well in a long time. The host was very friendly and knowledgeable. We will be back.

We thoroughly enjoyed Matisse Bed & Breakfast! The proprietor was friendly and helpful with our plans. Her breakfasts were delicious, nutritious and artistically presented. We enjoyed chatting with her and her other guests over coffee - a very interesting lady!

What a lovely last minute find. The room was bright and clean. The back yard is a nice oasis. The host is wonderful and prepared a delicious breakfast. I would definitely stay there again.

We liked everything about the property. Beautiful house, B and B rooms tastefully decorated. Host was delightful and very helpful. Breakfasts were Five Star!!

My wife and I traveled to NOTL for a "getaway" and to attend a show. Matisse was an excellent choice for our trip; clean and welcoming ! It was conveniently located for our needs and, we were pointed in a great direction for eating out, shopping, and yummy gelato! The breakfast for our stay was tasty, warm, and (important to me) came with a bottomless cup of coffee! Bravo!

Wonderful experience. Breakfast rivalled every other meal we had around town.

The rooms are rather small.

The room and bathroom were spotless. We stayed for two nights and breakfast for each morning was exceptional. Our host was knowledgeable and informative about the area. Could not have had a better experience. Highly recommend!!

Overall experience was excellent Room was impeccably clean Breakfast excellent, with great table conversation with other guests from Germany and U S Highly recommend!👍👍

Everything was excellent. Breakfast was amazing - don't miss it. Janet and her husband super hosts.

Nice location, nice garden/grounds, comfortable bed, great breakfasts. Hosts very helpful. Coming back
