Built 122 years ago, the Keefer Mansion is a Niagara Region landmark.

The Keefer’s were one of Canada's most important engineering dynasty, planning and directing the building of our railways, bridges, water & sewer works, the Welland Canal and our nation's new Parliament.

The 9,000 sq ft mansion is owned by The City of Thorold and was restored privately to reflect the "privileged life" of its prosperous builders.

We offer ten guest suites beautifully appointed with hand carved reproduction antiques and oil paintings. Our dining is sensational, featuring regional and seasonal ingredients paired with the culinary skill of Executive Chef Jay Sawatsky.  Enjoy our VQA Gold wine list with lunch and dinner daily.
