Hilton Niagara Falls/Fallsview Hotel and Suites' North Tower is a skyscraper-style hotel in Niagara Falls, Ontario, Canada. It was originally slated to rise 58 floors to a height of 177 m, but the building was subsequently reduced to 53 floors as verified by the hotel operator themselves and the new height has never been publicly released.[1] It has, however, clearly surpassed the Embassy Suites as tallest building in Niagara Falls and still has more than 500 rooms.[2] It is also the tallest hotel in Canada.[1][3][4]
The CTBUH lists the building as being 581 feet tall and still having 58 floors.[5] Frommer's has stated the floor count at 59.[6] Skyscraperpage lists the building as being 162 m tall with 53 floors.[7] A visual floor count of the building yields only a total of 49 or 50 stories.[8][9] The actual height is easily verified using Google Earth's measurement tools, and is 162 m (531 ft).
