You have a ton of options. Right at the south end of Fallsview Blvd are 2 Marriotts, an Embassy Suites and a Radisson, all clustered together. Up the road a couple blocks is the Hilton. The Marriott Gateway is an old Sheraton, and has more of a view across the horseshoe, rather than looking at it. Across the parking lot, to the north is the Radisson. It has a low rise section as well as tower, so I'm sure your status will get you the room you want. I can't say for sure, but I think part of the falls view from this hotel could be obstructed by the Marriott Fallsview, across the road. Right beside that Marriott is the Embassy Suites. A couple blocks up is the Hilton, which has 2 towers and is the largest Niagara hotel. It's right across the road from Fallsview Casino and there are many restaurants, as well as attractions in the immediate area.
I would personally pick the Hilton or ES if I had the choice, with the Marriott Fallsview my third choice.
