Our Story

Grand lobby of Aurelius Grand Resort with marble floors and sweeping chandelier staircase

Built on a Passion for
Exceptional Hospitality

When Aurelius Grand first opened its doors in 1998, the vision was bold and clear: to create a resort destination so remarkable that guests would choose to return not simply for what it offered, but for how it made them feel. A quarter of a century later, that founding vision remains the heartbeat of everything we do.

Our 38-storey tower, rising above the Niagara Gorge, has welcomed over six million guests from across Canada and around the world. We have hosted state dinners, world-title boxing matches, record-breaking concerts, and countless weddings, milestones, and moments that guests carry with them for a lifetime.

Guided by a commitment to service, sustainability, and community, we continually reinvest in our property and our people — because we believe that a truly great resort is only as extraordinary as the team that brings it to life each day.

Everything We Do

Excellence

We pursue excellence in every detail — from the thread count of our linens to the sourcing of every ingredient on our menus. Mediocrity has no place at Aurelius Grand.

Integrity

We operate with transparency, accountability, and respect — toward our guests, our team members, and the communities we are privileged to serve in Ontario.

Sustainability

Certified carbon-neutral since 2022, we source locally, minimise waste, and invest in renewable energy — because protecting Niagara's natural beauty is a responsibility we embrace gladly.
