Description

Kamloops spreads across the sunny Thompson-Nicola Valley, where two rivers meet, a relaxed interior city of grassland hills with Sun Peaks Resort and wine country close at hand. Centrally located in Uptown, the Best Western Plus Kamloops Hotel, Kamloops, Canada, is a comfortable home base near local restaurants, shops, Thompson Rivers University, and the Tournament Capital Centre. One of the most environmentally conscious stays in the city, the hotel runs geothermal heating and recycling programs, and it is both pet-friendly and bike-friendly. A complimentary hot breakfast, fast free Wi-Fi, a large indoor saltwater pool and hot tub, in-room workspaces, and a fitness centre keep work and play in balance, with select rooms looking out over the Thompson-Nicola Valley. Free parking and EV charging make road trips easy, with renowned golf courses, mountain-biking and hiking trails, and wineries close by, and Sun Peaks, Canada's second-largest ski area, a 40-minute drive away. Let the Thompson rivers and the dry hills round out the day.

"Short but very pleasant stay!"
BSchraeder, 15 Septembre 2026

The BW (Best Western) Plus Kamloops is located in front of the city approaching IT from the main highway (west-east/east-west). Thus, very convenient to access. Lots of car park spaces available on-site, complimentary. I had a room with two double/twin beds as a single person and consequently, lots of space for myself. The gym is open till 10PM, opening at 6AM in the morning. Small but includes all vital equipment. Breakfast, starting as of 6.30AM was sufficient, for celiac concerned persons gluten free options are available upon request. Overall, a short but very pleasant stay!

"Nice, clean hotel in Kamloops"
FarAway60338361026, 12 Septembre 2026

We stopped off here for the night when doing a road trip. Location was handy for us, rooms were very spacious which was great. Room was clean, noise level was 0, the reception staff were good, amenities we needed for our quick stop off was there. I had to sign a form saying we had left no valuables in the car which wasn't an issue as we didn't but it was a odd thing for me to sign I thought. When checking out, we were able to grab a quick coffee and snack in the breakfast area which was much appreciated.

Owner Response, 12 Septembre 2026

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience with us! We're so pleased to hear that our location worked well for your road trip and that you found your room spacious, clean, and quiet. It's also great to hear that our reception team took good care of you and that you were able to grab a quick coffee and something to eat before continuing your travels. I did want to clarify the form regarding valuables in vehicles. We provide this reminder to our guests as an added precaution and to reassure them that our team is happy to securely store luggage or valuables at the hotel rather than having them left unattended in a vehicle. We understand that the form may have seemed a little unusual, and we appreciate you mentioning it. Thank you again for staying with us during your road trip. We hope you enjoyed the rest of your travels and would be happy to welcome you back if you find yourself in Kamloops again!

"Title: Extreme Health Hazard & Foul Sweat Odor – Made 3 Guests Sick ​Review:"
Rebecca K, 11 Septembre 2026

I had an awful stay at Best Western Plus Kamloops (Room 216, Sept 8–10, 2026). The moment we entered, the entire room and all the bedding were filled with a suffocating, unbearable stench of trapped stale sweat, body odor, and mildew. ​I asked for replacement pillowcases on night one and a full sheet change on night two, but the "fresh" bedding reeked EXACTLY the same. The smell filled the entire room. Because the bedding was so horribly smelly, none of the 3 guests in our room could bear to cover ourselves with the blankets for two nights, causing all 3 of us to fall sick with severe colds and respiratory infections after checking out. ​On check-out morning, the female manager inspected the room and acknowledged the stench, but arrogantly refused accountability. She claimed she worked there for 15 years, insisted that this stale sweat odor is their "normal standard scent," and absurdly blamed "Canadian environmental regulations" for the smell. ​Getting sick from an unhygienic, foul-smelling room at a 3.5-star hotel is completely unacceptable. I demand a thorough corporate investigation into this property's hygiene standards and management conduct.

Owner Response, 11 Septembre 2026

Thank you for sharing your additional feedback. We are sorry to hear that you remain dissatisfied with your experience. We have taken the concerns you raised regarding our linens seriously. The room you stayed in and its linens were inspected by our Head Housekeeper, a Room Attendant, and our Front Office Manager. None of the three team members detected the stale sweat, body odour, or mold odour described in your review. Following your concerns, we also arranged for our laundry chemical provider to conduct a chemical audit of our laundry system. The chemical levels and dispensing settings were tested and found to be correct. We would also like to clarify the interaction referenced in your review. The manager you spoke with was our Front Office Manager, who explained that during her inspection she was only able to detect the scent of our typical cleaning products in the room. She did not state that foul sweat or body odour is “normal” under Canadian environmental laws. We are also sorry that our breakfast offerings did not meet your expectations and appreciate your feedback regarding the food quality. We respect that your experience and perception of the room differed from the findings of our team. However, we want to assure future guests that the concerns raised were investigated thoroughly, including through an additional audit of our laundry chemical system.

"Reasonable place if you're travelling, Wouldn't want to stay here long."
roz and mark h, 12 Août 2026

Stayed as a family of five (all over 20) in two adjoining rooms. Hotel was a little tired & shabby for a Best Western. Breakfast ok but basic (limited choice / disposable tableware). From the signeage they clearly have a problem with break-in's to cars - we emptied ours so no problem. Good curry house across the road for dinner. Rooms have a coffee machine & microwave.

Owner Response, 12 Août 2026

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience with us. We're glad that our adjoining rooms worked well for your family of five and that you appreciated the in-room amenities and convenient dining options nearby. We're sorry to hear that you found some areas of the hotel a little tired. We continue to make updates and improvements throughout the property, and feedback like yours is always appreciated as we consider future projects. Thank you as well for your comments regarding breakfast. We understand that our compostable plates and wooden cutlery may not be everyone's preference. As a 4 Green Key rated hotel, reducing our environmental impact is important to us, and our compostable serviceware helps reduce the water, energy, and commercial dishwashing chemicals associated with traditional serviceware. I would also like to clarify that our parking lot signage is intended as a precautionary reminder for guests not to leave valuables visible in their vehicles. We feel it is important to encourage good vehicle security practices rather than give guests a false sense of security when travelling. Thank you again for staying with us and for sharing your feedback. We hope you and your family enjoyed your time in Kamloops and wish you safe and happy travels! Warm regards, Jen - General Manager

"good location, pleasant employees"
Sightseer64074848485, 30 Octobre 2025

This trip was for my friend's surgery and this location provided easy access to the hospital. There's several restaurants in the area and a large breakfast room in the hotel with a wide variety of items for everyone's tastes. The staff were friendly and willing to answer all our questions especially Veronica who does an excellent job of manning the front desk. We've already made a reservation to stay here in November.

"Excellent room and service at a good price ."
rdmiller_pcj, 27 Juillet 2025

From the moment of our arrival we were placed with this hotel . The young Asian man that greeted us was pleasant and helpful . The room was very nice . Good a/c . Quiet and effective . Spacious, well decorated . Comfortable beds and washroom . Plenty of charger capability. “complimentary “ breakfast was quite good . All in all this place is a winner .

"Dirty and Overpriced"
Erik C, 15 Juillet 2025

Stayed at this hotel Sunday July 13th, 2025. After driving from Edmonton we got checked in and went to the pool/hot tub. The pool was slimy and unsafe to enter so we stuck to a soak in the hot tub. We went to shower in our room after and found the shower walls were covered in hair from a previous guest. I raised this with the front desk and we were given a new room. After moving our luggage I gave the bathroom a check and found the tub was full of brown flecks and smears. I provided videos of both to the two women working the front desk. Screenhots attached from the videos. These were two different rooms… We were moved to a third room that they had checked before moving us. In the morning we got up and went for a shower only to find the shower products were empty. We told the man working the desk on Monday morning that our room was again not properly made up. He assured us that we would hear from a manager and that something would be done. We have not been contacted except by automated message thanking us for staying and that holds on our card may take a week to be removed. The pillow cases on one of the two beds were not clean in our last room. The hallway on the third floor was littered with clear plastic wrappers and other trash. We stayed at numerous other hotels on our trip and this was an upsetting way to end the vacation. We chose this hotel as it appeared to be a nicer option and we expected to have my mother with us for the drive back to Victoria. Grateful she wasn't there to experience this with us. I would skip this hotel and stay somewhere else the next time I drive to/from Alberta to visit friends and family. A shameful showing to have been provided three rooms, none of which were properly cleaned, and be invited to leave a positive review.

Owner Response, 15 Juillet 2025

Good day 110erikc, Thank you for sharing your feedback. I'm very sorry that your experience with us fell short of expectations. I understand how frustrating it must have been to deal with room issues, especially at the end of a long trip. I did respond to you directly via email following your stay, and I appreciate you taking the time to respond back to me. As mentioned in our exchange, compensation was provided, and your concerns were shared with our leadership team for follow-up and retraining where necessary. Our maintenance team had inspected the pool earlier that afternoon and no concerns were noted at that time, but your report prompted a reinspection to ensure everything met our cleanliness and safety standards. We're genuinely sorry this stay didn't reflect the level of quality and care we strive for. Thank you again for your communication—it gave us the opportunity to take immediate steps internally. We truly hope to have the chance to restore your confidence in the future.

"Good Hotel in a good location"

Good hotel in a great location just of the freeware or Highway One. Earls restaurant a short walk up the hill and the food was excellent. Lots of fast food and shops in the vacinity.

"Loved our stay"
Dean S, 02 Mai 2025

We were upgraded at no charge to an amazing room with a spectacular view of the Kamloops Valley. The fitness room, pool and hot tub were second to none. The free breakfast had the most amazing selection of food and beverages and was open and available at 6:30 AM. Loved our stay and wish we could have stayed longer.

Owner Response, 02 Mai 2025

Good day deansw3368MH, Thank you so much for your kind words! We're thrilled to hear you enjoyed your upgraded room with that beautiful Kamloops Valley view — it's one of our favourite features too.

We truly appreciate you choosing to stay with us and hope next time you'll be able to stay a little longer. Safe travels until we see you again! Jen - General Manager

"Cozy and Clean"
stayvaca, 17 Octobre 2024

I was greeted warmly and got some great advice. I needed a ride to the airport so they provided the number for the Airport Shuttle company and I felt relieved! The room was so very clean! I enjoyed the breakfast options. It is nice to see actual, real bacon and all the other choices. It is nice to not have to go out for breakfast. Nice, friendly staff who take time to chat and make you feel comfortable!

"No soap, shower gel or shampoo provided"
Philip B, 18 Août 2024

Have just arrived in this hotel at 9 pm after a long journey. Went up to the room to find that there was no soap, shower gel or shampoo in the bathroom. There were blank mounts for dispensers above the bath and they strangely provided a small bottle of mouthwash! I went to reception to complain and all could provide was a bar of soap. Nowhere to put this whilst in the shower as there is no shelf. Pity as the room appears modern and spacious but in 60 years of travelling, I haven't come across this degree of sloppiness from housekeeping.

Owner Response, 18 Août 2024

Good day Philip B, Thank you for your review. I noticed that you also posted some pictures, and it seems like you might have meant to review the Best Western Premier Aberdeen instead of our hotel. I'm sorry to hear about your experience there. If you ever find yourself in Kamloops, we would love the opportunity to host you at our property. Please feel free to give us a call at 250-374-7878 to book your stay. We hope to welcome you in the future!

Room was very clean and had everything you need; tv, internet, fridge/freezer, microwave, coffee and heated bathroom floors. Breakfast was really great! The staff I dealt with were so nice and very professional. Pool and hot tub were an added bonus. The additional security in this hotel is comforting. I would definitely stay here again!

"A short stay"
craines2024, 09 Juillet 2024

We were travelling through and decided to book at this location. I was able to get a good rate (so I thought) and checked in. When we got to our room there was a strong odor. Luckily we brought laundry sheets and were able to open the window/put out a few sheets to help mitigate some of the smell. There were leftover forks by the tv and old food in the fridge. Hair in the shower and on the beds. Bedding was stained as well. It was brought up with the front desk who asked for photos emailed rather than just coming to see the room. No additional comment was made from front desk until checkout when offered 50% off my rate. Great gesture until I realized they charged me a rate plan 40 dollars more than I had booked. I didn't bother addressing this as we needed to get back on the road. Breakfast was delicious - ready made pancakes, eggs, ham slices. Freshly cut fruit. Options for ready cooked veggies if you wanted. Good selection of cereal and yogurt. As well as a coffee/tea bar.

Owner Response, 09 Juillet 2024

Dear craines2024, Thank you for taking the time to share your experience with us. We sincerely apologize for the issues you encountered during your stay. Your feedback is very important, and we are truly sorry that we did not meet your expectations. Cleanliness is a top priority for us, and it is concerning to hear about the state of your room. We have addressed this with our housekeeping team to ensure such oversights do not happen in the future. We regret that the odor in the room and the cleanliness issues impacted your stay, and we appreciate your patience and resourcefulness in mitigating the smell. Regarding the discrepancy in your rate and the billing issue, we apologize for any confusion or inconvenience this caused. This does not reflect the standard of service we strive to provide. Please contact me directly ([email protected]) with the name the reservation was booked under, and I will personally look into this. We are glad to hear that you enjoyed our breakfast offerings. It's great to know that the variety and quality met your expectations. We take pride in providing a delicious and satisfying start to our guests' days. Your feedback is invaluable to us as we continuously work to improve our services. We hope you will consider giving us another chance to provide you with a superior experience in the future.

"Would never stay at this Best Western or recommend it to anyone."
AFRICATRAVEL C, 06 Juin 2024

Azmaeen the CSR at the desk was rude and unhelpful. The group rate we assumed was booked under when mentioned to him/they, he said he could do nothing and it was a take it or leave it type rate and to speak with the manager in the morning if she was willing to help. We over paid by almost $80 but had no choice for the night as we were in town for a competition and as participants we needed an early night. As elite members we were not even offered water or juice. Infect more like dishonored

Owner Response, 06 Juin 2024

Good day AfricatravelC, Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. I'm very sorry to hear about your recent experience at our hotel and appreciate you bringing these issues to our attention. Regarding the group rate, I apologize for any confusion and inconvenience. As previously mentioned in your other reviews, all team bookings needed to be managed through the travel agency handling your group. This process ensures consistency and accuracy for all bookings, and I regret any misunderstanding that occurred. I am particularly troubled to hear about your interaction with our staff. Providing excellent service is our top priority, especially for our elite members. It is also important to note that swearing at our employees is inappropriate and goes against our policy for a respectful environment. We strive to make every guest feel welcome and valued, and I am sorry that we fell short during your stay. Regarding the lack of information about amenities and the welcome gesture typically offered to our elite members, I apologize for these oversights. Your feedback highlights areas where we need to improve, and we are taking steps to ensure this does not happen again. Thank you again for your feedback. We are committed to improving our services and ensuring a better experience for all our guests in the future. Take care, Jen - General Manager

"Pet friendly room"
R P, 17 Mai 2024

May 2024 We enjoyed our stay in a pet friendly room on the main floor. The room was spacious and we could have fit a medium sized kennel. We had two queen beds, mini fridge and microwave, desk and chair, lounge chair and small closet. I forgot the dogs bowl and they had one I could borrow. There was a large field beside the parking lot that we took our dog to pee, it was mostly tall thick weeds but did have a little packed down trail to walk on. The pool area was very nice with a little lazy river area in it and a nice hot tub. The breakfast was included and there was choice of fresh fruit, eggs, one type of meat, and a pankcake maker. There was cold and hot cereal and yogurt. There is an expresso machine in the lobby free of charge. I would recommend this place especially if bringing your pet, I saw quite a few other dogs at the hotel but there was no noise/barking issues.

Owner Response, 17 Mai 2024

Good day Moscato-Mama, thank you for your review and all of your kind comments. I am so glad that you enjoyed your stay with us. We hope you will be able to stay with us again soon. Take care, Jen

"Beware! -hidden check in fee"
VncrCanada, 20 Janvier 2024

I would have given the hotel full stars if not for the hidden fee we were asked to pay when we arrived an hour and a half before their official check in time! They said the room was ready BUT they charge $30 for early check in! That was our very first encounter with staff when we arrived after a long, tiring winter journey. It definitely soured our stay! I have never encountered an ‘early check in fee' at any other place we have stayed and we have booked many hotel rooms including Best Western in other locations. What a shock, especially when the room was ready! A huge annoyance as well as we were literally left sitting in the lobby waiting for check in. We were able to store our luggage at the hotel and walk around the block but the location is an urban, commercial strip, not an attractive area to wait in. When I emailed the hotel afterwards to complain to the manager I got nothing but run around and lame excuses for the charge, something about giving housekeeping staff more time to get the room ready. Give me a break, the room WAS READY. The hotel is clean and the facilities new, but we don't recommend it at all due to being asked to pay $30 just to check in an hour and a half early.

Owner Response, 20 Janvier 2024

Good day VncrCanada, thank you for your review. To anyone reading this, please be aware this is not a hidden fee, the room reservation rate is for a room to be available from 4pm to 11am. When people book on our website there is the option to request early check in, and the early check in fee is stated. Our guaranteed check in time is 4pm, and this guest had tried to check in just after 12pm. Our staff explained the policy, and said they will allow this guest to check in an hour early (3pm) complimentary. The early check in fee is something that many other hotels have, and as stated above Best Western has added to the website as an option. If a guest is unsure of policies, the easiest way to find out is to call the hotel direct to ask, and make a request. We strive for superior customer care, and we are very sorry that this guest did not enjoy their check in.

"Hot tub is my favourite part"
jlenko, 15 Janvier 2024

I stay here often, because my work brings me to Kamloops often. It's my favourite hotel to stay in, parking is never a problem and can accommodate large vehicles. I can plug in my block heater overnight. They have electric car charging now (not that I will ever willingly own one.. but kudos to you for saving the planet if you do). Never had a bad stay, the staff are great and always able to accommodate my strange schedule (late arrivals, early departures with a bag lunch since the Ok, the breakfast is pretty decent too.. I recommend room # 201 because there's a massaging chair in there!

Owner Response, 15 Janvier 2024

Good day Jlenko, thank you so much for your great review. Our salt water pool and hot tub are really great, thank you for mentioning them. Thank you for your continued patronage, I have added a note to your profile that you prefer 201. For anyone else reading, please note that 201 is an accessible suite, with a roll in shower. Thank you again J, we look forward to welcoming you back to the hotel. Jen - General Manager

"A perfect pitstop in Kamloops"
IrelandsIslandHopper, 02 Janvier 2024

This is such a nice hotel. Very clean and modern inside. The bedroom was very comfortable and spacious. The bed was amazing. The bathroom was great. Breakfast is complimentary and plentiful. Loads of choice including various coffees, cereals, omelettes, pancakes, waffles, etc. The reception staff on New Year's Eve and New Year's Day were professional, friendly and accommodating. The breakfast lady was a gem. We just needed a place to rest our heads half way between Jasper and Whistler but we genuinely had an excellent stay and totally recharged! Thanks guys, keep up the amazing work :-)

Owner Response, 27 Décembre 2023

"Great staff, clean rooms."
vickyrensby, 27 Décembre 2023

We had one pet-friendly room which was clean. Family member was in for a medical appointment, and staff gave us clear directions and assistance to get to the hospital. Staff provided dishes for the dog, and gave us information about where to walk the dog, etc. Breakfast was good. Overall a great experience.

Owner Response, 27 Décembre 2023

Good day Vickyrensby, thank you for your review. We are so glad that you and your family enjoyed your time with us. All of the staff here do love animals. Thank you for staying with us. We hope to see you again soon.

"New favorite hotel in Kamloops"
Wally S, 06 Octobre 2023

I've stayed at quite a few hotels in the area. This is where I will be staying from now on. Clean rooms, friendly staff. Quiet. No strange odors, nothing out of order. Keurig coffee in the rooms, another coffee machine in the lobby. Breakfast is a treat. Self-serve, more than enough options, food was above hotel standard. You can tell that staff take pride in their hotel.

"Very Comfortable Stay"
H K, 25 Septembre 2023

I only stayed here for 1 night but I enjoyed the hotel. My room was spacious and clean with good quality linens and towels. The AC and internet worked fine, and the bed was very comfortable. The included breakfast featured scrambled eggs and bacon - both done well. It was also well located and had amble parking. The hotel could use a little updating on decor. Otherwise, it's clean and well kept. I did not use the pool nor fitness facilities, so I cannot comment on that.

Owner Response, 25 Septembre 2023

Good day H K, thank you for your review. I am glad you enjoyed your time with us. We did finish the upgrades to our flooring in beds in the spring, and will be working on the outside of the building in the coming winter and spring. Thank you for the comments on the our great breakfast. We hope to see you again soon. Take care, Jen - General Manager

"Great accessibility."
maryjofetterly, 18 Septembre 2023

Super accessible room, which had one of the best, Rowland showers and bathrooms I've ever been in. I appreciated that. As well as the flooring was all vinyl laminate, which made it very easy to get around.

Owner Response, 18 Septembre 2023

Thank you for your review. We have had many great comments and thank you for the extra space we built into our handicapped rooms and bathroonms.

"Great hotel"
Meander752576, 15 Septembre 2023

The service was great, very friendly and helpful Beds were comfortable, rooms were clean and roomy. Quite, the breakfast was great. I would definitely stay here again. Was able to walk to the restaurant for our meal to eat out.

Owner Response, 15 Septembre 2023

Thank you for your review and comments. We have many cuisines within walking distance of hotel which our guests enjoy experiencing!

"Amazingly quiet!"
IamLindyLou, 12 Août 2023

We only stayed one night, and did not have a reservation, so we appreciated that the staff was able to accommodate our request for a one-bedroom, quiet room. It's an older hotel, but our room was roomy and clean. It's located on a busy highway but our room on the top floor was very quiet.

Owner Response, 12 Août 2023

Good day lamLindyLou, thank you for your review. Our location is on one of the main streets in Kamloops, close to the hospital, which gives our guests easy access to all areas of Kamloops, and close to all major highways coming into town. Our hotel is 13 years old, and we recently renovated. We are glad you enjoyed your stay with us. We hope to see you again soon.

"Great place to stay & recharge!"
lslepage, 09 Août 2023

Loved this BW better than most! It had an EV charging station for our car too! Loved the salt water pool & hot tub! Great Breakfast with lots of variety & hot food. Our bed was very comfortable! I was very happy that the toilet was a higher standard & not a low, short one.

Owner Response, 09 Août 2023

Good day Islepage, thank you for your review. I am so glad you enjoyed your time with us. Our salt water pool and EV charger stations are definitely a hit amongst our guests. We hope to see you again soon.

"Great Stay, Nice Pool!"
633evand, 09 Août 2023

I stayed with the family on a road trip through kamloops. the best western was very well taken care of and in a nice part of town. There was lots of parking and the pool was really nice for the kids to enjoy. We would definitely stay there again.

Owner Response, 09 Août 2023

Good day 633evand, thank you for your review, we are so happy that you enjoyed your time with us. We do have one of the largest hotel parking lots in Kamloops, which makes parking easy for our guests with larger vehicles. I'm glad that glad that you and your family enjoyed our salt water pool. We hope to see you again soon.

"A good hotel for disabled - limited access persons"
Alex H, 01 Août 2023

I am paralysed from the chest down and permanently in a wheelchair without the ability to stand. This is one of the very few hotels that I can use because of my condition. it has a very good roll in bathroom for my commode chair and the bed height is very close to my wheelchair base height so I can use a transfer board (brought myself) to move from wheelchair to bed. Overall there are few if any hotels I know of between Calgary and Vancouver that allow this level of accessibility. Pity they do not have a rolling roof rail so people that need to move by sling could also use the hotel. Install that and tell people they have to bring their own lift/sling devices and chargers and you would have a room that darn near any disabled person could use and be a step ahead of the competition.

Owner Response, 01 Août 2023

Good day Alex, thank you for your second review of us, and I am so glad you enjoyed your stay with us again. We take the safety and comfort of all of our guests very seriously, and I really appreciate you offering us suggestions to approve. I have passed over your comments to our owner to look into. We look forward to seeing you again on your next trip through Kamloops.

"Kamloops Trip"
Gateway1_10, 25 Juillet 2023

Travelled to Kamloops and stayed at the Best Western in Aberdeen. Some concern about the Ross Moore Lake fire but turned out to be a minimal issue even though other guests cancelled during our stay. The suite was quite large with only a few negative comments. Assume others staying in a King Size suite would also be tall and yet the height of the counter in the bathroom was quite low. Also, not sure if this suite is typical for the 4th floor but the sound from the adjoining suite was quite prevalent...possibly from the connecting door. The view was spectacular. The guest services including the breakfast were fine but recommend you try to determine potential noise issues when making your reservation.

Owner Response, 25 Juillet 2023

Good day Gateway1_10, thank you for your review and I'm glad you enjoyed your time with us. The fires in the area can be scary for all, but we are very lucky that there is great infrastructure in place to keep the town safe. The counters in all of our rooms are of standard height to try and accommodate the wide range of people who stay in our rooms. I'm sorry you found your neighbours loud, when a noise complaint is expressed to our team we do our best to try and fix it as quick as possible. Thank you for mentioning our great breakfast. We hope to have the chance to see you again.

"A very nice hotel in a good location for easy access to downtown"
PaulKurucz, 04 Juin 2023

This is an older and very well-kept Best Western hotel, one of two locations in Kamloops. This location is closer to downtown with easy access for shopping, dining, and walking along the river. The front desk staff are friendly and professional, the rooms and building are well maintained and clean, and the breakfast good.

Owner Response, 04 Juin 2023

Good day PaulKurucz, Thank you for your review. I am so glad you enjoyed your time with us. Yes, our hotel was built 13 years ago, and our owners take great pride in making sure that it is well taken care of, thank you for noticing. We hope to see you again soon. Take care.

"Excellent place to stay"
Mick765, 19 Mai 2023

We were visiting in Kamloops and preferred not to be directly downtown and this was a great option. Very clean, breakfast was great for an included breakfast, hit the spot. This is the first hotel in a long time that was quiet every night. We slept so well here. The bed was very comfortable. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

Owner Response, 19 Mai 2023

Good day Mick765, Thank you for your review. I am so glad you enjoyed your stay with us. We have adjusted our breakfast options a lot over the last year to try and have something for everyone, including people with dietary restrictions. Thank you for confirming our changes are being enjoyed by our valued guests. We hope to see you again soon. Take care, Jen

"Most comfortable bed I ever slept in"
Eithne C, 10 Mai 2023

This hotel was very comfortable, we stayed as part of the Rocky Mountaineer package x the room was beautiful, the bed possibly the most comfortable I have ever slept in, beautiful bathroom products x staff very helpful. The only downside was the restaurant under its roof. I am unsure if it's the same management however I imagine not.

Owner Response, 10 Mai 2023

Good day Eithne C, thank you for your review, but I believe this review is for the Best Western Premier Aberdeen, as we do not have an inhouse restaurant. We do offer a complimentary hot buffet breakfast. I can pass on your comments about Katch to staff at the Premier. It is a separate company that manages that restaurant. I am glad you enjoyed the great amenities that BWH Hotels are known for.

"Positive experience"
aprils365, 09 Avril 2023

Good location, friendly staff, clean and spacious room Only issue I had it's the sound proofing and I can hear the water is being used from other room during the nights I stayed. Overall great experience

Owner Response, 09 Avril 2023

Good day April, thank you for your review. I'm sorry you heard water from other another guest room. I am glad you enjoyed the rest of your stay with us. We hope to see you again soon.

"Clean Hotel..Customer service.meh."
TaleenV, 07 Avril 2023

Nice clean hotel. Easy access to hotel. Close to numerous stores and restaurants. Seems like a safe area. Customer service could be better. Back rooms had a peek a boo view of the river. Saltwater pool was clean and relaxing. Hot tub was clean and in working order. No towels in the pool area, even though we called and asked if they had them down there.

Owner Response, 07 Avril 2023

Good day Taleen, thank you for your TripAdvisor review. This guest also filled out one of our internal surveys and I have addressed their concerns about customer service. Thank you for mentioning our view, our location and our great salt water pool and hot tub. I am so glad you enjoyed most of your stay. We hope to see you again soon.

"Dirty bedding covers"
Rogerjame, 10 Février 2023

I noticed the bedding cover had a big stain on it. The staff should be concerned of making the best impression for their boss/hotel owner. Do not use stained covers it looks bad for the hotel. I liked it overall.

"Overpriced musty old hotel"
promana604, 21 Janvier 2023

This hotel is old, dingy, musty and very dated. The room smelled, it was dark and the towels in the bathroom were dirty. The breakfast is mediocre at best. I was booked to stay three nights but checked out the first night and went to the Fairfield instead. Save your money, don't stay here.

Owner Response, 21 Janvier 2023

Good day Promana604, thank you for your review, and I'm sorry you did not enjoy your stay with us. I don't have a record of who this guest is as the name doesn't match any in our system so I can only speak generically about this review. In the last year we have finished our renovations, which consisted of replacing all carpet, flooring, window treatments, beds and linens/towels. We use an outside laundry company for all of our linens, but I will make sure the housekeepers are checking all linens/towels to ensure there is no stains on them before they are placed in a room. Thank you again for your review and I hope you enjoyed your stay at the other hotel.

"Tiny Overpriced Suite"
fromthe40, 15 Décembre 2022

The Staff and cleanliness was great but the Suite for the price was tiny and poorly lauded out. The bathroom/walk-in shower stall was located diagonally across the suite from the bedroom. The walk-in shower was so narrow I barely fit! The bedroom was so small the luggage rack had to be out in the Mai part of the suite. The hotel is only a few years old but the suite looked outdated. Look else where for better priced way nicer suites in Kamloops.

Owner Response, 15 Décembre 2022

Good day fromthe40, thank you for your review. I have responded to the guest personally as well. I am sorry that this guest did not enjoy their stay with us. The luggage rack might not be able to be placed beside the bed without blocking access, but there is definitely room at the end of the bed, or in front of the TV stand to have a luggage rack in the bedroom. We have many of our elite and corporate guests who love the king suite this guest stayed in, as it is actually our most requested room number. We finished all of our renovations this year, just before the summer season started. Thank you for mentioning how great our staff is, we are very fortunately to have such a great team here.

"Winter stay at Best Western Plus"
wendymbergman, 13 Décembre 2022

Our room was cozy and clean. The breakfast was a variety of delicious healthy foods and the staff were polite and friendly. The only issue we had was that our television did not work and the staff were unable to help trouble shoot the problem, due to the hotel being so busy - but other than that it was a great stay. The tv was not a big deal because we had an iPad to watch movies on anyway.

Owner Response, 13 Décembre 2022

Good day wendymbergman, thank you for your review and I'm glad you enjoyed your stay with us. Thank you for also letting me know about the TV in your room. I will be following up with the front desk agents and coaching them on how to better handle issues with the TV. Thank you for staying with us, and we hope to see you again soon.

"Great stay. Accommodating"
obsafe, 03 Décembre 2022

The stay was great. Hassle free, very helpful. The room was clean and warm. There was coffee in the room. The vending machines worked. All very good. I was travelling with young pups and the staff helped accommodate and take the stress away. I got the room closest to the doors going out for easy access

Owner Response, 03 Décembre 2022

Good day obsafe, thank you for your review. I am so glad that you and your pups enjoyed your stay with us. We hope to see you again soon.

"Clean rooms, friendly staff"
grantlake, 05 Novembre 2022

Great place to overnight between the coast and Calgary. Rooms are up to date, clean and comfortable. Staff was proficient and friendly. I've stayed here 8 or 10 times in the past 3 years and plan to stay again.

"Hospital stay"
candimariea2022, 26 Octobre 2022

We had some issues with the billing of rooms and unwillingness to listen when they made a mistake and had to wait for shift change to deal with the mess they made Other than that the breakfast was amazing. Rooms were clean and staff friendly enough

Owner Response, 26 Octobre 2022

Good day Candimariea2022, thank you for your review and I'm glad you enjoyed our breakfast. I am sorry there was some issues with your billing. I'd like to discuss this with you, if you could please contact me directly at the hotel. We strive for superior customer care, and I'm sorry we could not achieve that with this stay. I would like the opportunity to coach my staff on how we could have handle the issues better. I look forward to speaking with you.

"Great stay, breakfast variety a highlight"
infoR4262WB, 25 Octobre 2022

Comfortable and spacious room, fun pool and hot tub for the family, although the pool was a few degrees too cool for an extended hangout with the little one. Breakfast was a highlight; good breakfast variety and selection, including various self-serve bread products including pancakes and French toast, oatmeal and a variety of toppings, and hot items that changed daily. Fewer options for vegans, but they certainly would not go hungry. Overall great value for the price, appreciated the bit of festive Hallowe'en decor in the lobby and breakfast room as well.

Owner Response, 25 Octobre 2022

Good day infoR462WB, thank you for staying with us, and your great review. I'm glad you and your family enjoyed your time with us. We hope to see you again soon.

Electra2022, 17 Octobre 2022

Happy with our stay. We had a nice big room, for 4 of us. The location was central and convenient. The hotel & room were clean and the staff was helpful and accommodating. Overall, we were very happy with our experience.

"Room wasn't fully prepared for our arrival"
kirkemamali, 11 Octobre 2022

We only had one towel in our room for 5 guests and one of the beds had stained sheets. Our room had 2 queens beds and a pull out couch, the room should have had a minimum of 4 towels sets for this size. The towels we finally did get had so much bleach in them that our eyes were burning and swollen the following morning. Our sheets should have been changed or the stains noticed if they were changed.

Owner Response, 11 Octobre 2022

Good day Kirkemamali, thank you for you review. In our rooms with 2 queen beds and a pull out sofa our standard is to have 4 set of towels in the room. One on the towel rack, and 3 on the shelves below the sink. If there is more than 4 people, an additional set should have been provided. Sometimes people don't notice the extra sets on the shelf. I will be having a conversation with our housekeeping team to remind them they need to make sure enough linens and towels are in the rooms. I'm sorry the towels had a lot of bleach, I will be following up with our laundry company and asking them to lower the usage of bleach. We hope you will give us another opportunity to show you how we strive for superior customer care.

r0xanne02, 13 Septembre 2022

Stayed during surgery standby, and staff were very accommodating. Quite costly but it was Labor Day weekend. Enjoyed our time, and heard the breakfast was very good. My daughter really enjoyed the pool as well.

Owner Response, 13 Septembre 2022

"Clean and comfortable room."
peterwD3532YG, 12 Septembre 2022

Definitely worth the stay, the value of the room is worth it. I don't have a pet but they also do provide pet friendly rooms which is always nice to consider that as well. The beds are very comfy and being across the road from a Starbucks was a big bonus!

Owner Response, 12 Septembre 2022

Good day PeterwD3532YG, thank you for your review. I'm glad you enjoyed your stay with us. All of us here love pets, so we really enjoy when guests bring their fur kids with them. We hope to see you again soon. Take care.

"Pleasantly surprised"
brianwI1206VA, 05 Septembre 2022

I had a great stay here. It was a busy long weekend and I was exhausted, but they offered me an early check in to place my bags and unwind before my tournament. The location was very easy to access and travel about. The breakfast room was clean, practical for a solo traveller or group, and there was plenty of food and beverages. Will definitely come back and use this facility again

Owner Response, 05 Septembre 2022

Good day Brianwl120VA, thank you for your review. I'm glad you enjoyed your stay with us, our breakfast is definitely a great way to start your day. We hope to see you again soon.

"Not worth the price stay at Marriott Delta same price"
denielleclermont, 31 Août 2022

272$ for one night on a Tuesday, really wasn't worth the price tag thought I'd treat myself to a nicer room and paid 300$ for a pretty average mediocre room stayed at Marriott two days later what a world of difference for the same price.

Owner Response, 31 Août 2022

Good day DenielleClermont, thank you for review, and I'm sorry we did not meet your expectations. Your comments were very concerning for me, so I watched the camera so I could see what the room attendant brought into that room. I can confirm that she did bring in all new linens and bath amenities. I have had a conversation with her about making sure all of the amenities are full and that there is no left over amenities from the previous guest, as well to make sure there is no stains on the new bedding when she puts them on the bed. I'm sorry again that you did not enjoy your stay with us and we hope to have another opportunity to provide you with superior customer care.

"55 plus Canada Games"
Frieda V, 28 Août 2022

Owner Response, 28 Août 2022

Good day Frieda V, thank you for your great review. We really enjoyed housing the 55+ Games athletes and family, all the staff are still talking about the great stories they were told last week. We are constantly updating our breakfast based on the reviews we have received, thank you for noticing we have added many healthy options.

"Underwhelmed"
PigaPiga60, 16 Août 2022

First impressions count and the BW doesn't really scream "Plus" to me. A hotel that locks it's main doors for safety reasons over night, and IMPLORES you to remove all valuables from your vehicle is a bit worrying from the get go. The room itself was basic and seemed vaguely clean. If hotels are going to suspend cleaning during a guests stay the REALLY have to do a better job of cleaning between stays. Actually cleaning with a vacuum cleaner and elbow grease. Oh and BW toilet paper is some of the flimsiest I have ever come across.

Owner Response, 16 Août 2022

Good day PigaPiga60, thank you for your review, and noticing that here at the Best Western Plus Kamloops Hotel security is very important to us, and preventative maintenance is key to keeping our area secure. We follow the suggestions by the local RCMP to remind our guests not to leave anything in vehicles to limit our area being a target. This is a good reminder for anywhere you park, as the crime rate has went up across the country. I am concerned about your comment in regards to housekeeping, as we have a very high standard for cleanliness. If you could please contact me personally so I could look into who cleaned your room, so we can offer coaching to that staff member, I would greatly appreciate it. Thank you again for your review.

"Very good room for disabled persons"
Alex H, 30 Juillet 2022

As a disabled person, I like to travel. My greatest problem is getting around how most rooms are setup for people that still have some ability to stand or turn. I am paralysed from the chest down and getting older. This means I cannot climb up onto high beds from the wheelchair because I cannot stand in any way. I also use a commode chair for toiletries and showers and most accessible rooms do not have showers I can take a commode chair in. They expect me to transfer to a bench and shower that way. Because of my high paralysis, I have terrible balance. I cannot control my stomach muscles and that would be dangerous and once I hit the floor, almost impossible to get me back into my chair. That said, this hotel has a great, large bathroom that allows me to use my commode chair easily. The bathroom is probably 10x10 feet and showering and toiletries with a commode chair is relatively easy. Bed height is a touch high but not terrible. I know the bed in the second accessible room was too high for easy transfers but I do not know if they have changed that mattress to lower it a bit. A shorter woman who had used that room before me has commented that it was too high for her to get on the bed easily. I would simply ask the front desk to measure the mattress height and compare it to your wheelchair seat height. I would like to see the Hotel have a transfer board available for the accessible rooms but I always bring my own in any case.

Owner Response, 30 Juillet 2022

Good day Alex H, thank you for your review. I have messaged the guest personally to discuss his review, as he states the majority of his stay was good. We are constantly adapting our facilities to be as accessible as possible. We take reviews and comments we receive as a way for us to do better.

"Hotel fine / Parking lot a theft hotbed"
terry48kirk, 18 Juillet 2022

This hotel presents a nice breakfast and rooms are pretty standard. However this hotel has a RCMP documented history of theft from their guests vehicles. Do not leave anything on your vehicle or visible inside.

Owner Response, 18 Juillet 2022

Good day Terry48kirk, thank you for your review. Kamloops, like many cities in the country has seen an uptick in crime. We had an RCMP security review done in 2021 and followed all the advice given. We upgraded our lights, cameras, locks and have a large, easily accessed storage room available for guest use. Thank you for the reminder about not leaving stuff in vehicles, this is a reminder we can all use everywhere we park in this day in age. We hope to see you again soon.

"Great"
493donaldb, 05 Juillet 2022

The Hotel was closed lots of different types of restaurants and fast foods all within walking distance. Also close to lots of food stores and within 5 minutes of three different malls. We were there for a baseball tournament and it was only 8 minutes the the diamonds. Looking forward to coming back.

Owner Response, 05 Juillet 2022

Good day 493donaldb, Thank you for your great review! Our location is really great for easy access to most of the cities amenities, without being in the busyness of downtown. I'm glad you enjoyed your stay with us, and I hope your team did well. We hope to see you again soon.

"Serious Consideration"
riverslb, 13 Mai 2022

Suggest that BW Work Plan do not include work Construction when Guests are on the floor below, who will hear the loud noise while trying to sleep at or up to 11:13 pm. At 7:30 am construction work started again. We checked out early as we could not even sleep in.

Owner Response, 13 Mai 2022

Good day Riverslb, thank you for your review. We did speak on the phone in regards to your comments, as we did not have any construction going on at that time. From our investigation it must have been the guest above you rolling on the desk chair. When alerted of noise our staff go up to the room right away and ask the noisy guests to quiet down. We unfortunately were not aware of this noise.

"Weak Wifi on Third Floor"
SuperDave47, 03 Mai 2022

Quick and efficient Reception, spacious room, comfortable bed & duvet, weak WiFi kept disconnecting us from internet, good TV channel selection for sports & movies, good breakfast selection & quality, close to several restaurants along urban highway.

We are sorry your Internet was not as good as expected. We have a Optik program that gives each device a seperate bandwidth. Please let the front desk next time and we can trouble shoot the issue.

"Disappointing"
hockeychicc, 02 Avril 2022

Room was clean, however walls must be paper thin as we could hear the kids in the room next to us quite easily. The breakfast offered was extremely disappointing. The "hot" items sit in a warmer..don't be fooled thinking you are getting a fresh omelet. It was a folded piece of carboard sitting in a warmer. NOT prepared for you. No fresh waffles etc. 2 varieties of muffins, 2 varieties of sweet granola bar, cold boiled egg, green apples. Oh.. packaged oatmeal you could mix in hot water. 2 types of cold cereal- rice krispies and chex. Bagels were offered, however i have never had a bagel like this before- textures was not the typical heavy bagel, it was light and airy. Needless to say, we went out for breakfast the next day.

Owner Response, 02 Avril 2022

We are sorry you did not enjoy our breakfast offerings. As we are not a full service hotel, we do not have a kitchen so yes, our omelettes, protein items are precooked product. We do cook our eggs in skillets when we have scrambled eggs. All our pastry are ordered from a local bakery and we do have a fresh pancake machine instead of a waffle unit which is very popular with families.

"Awesome Staff !!!!"
bhartiamit2011, 28 Mars 2022

Mohit at reception was awesome and made us feel so special. The rooms were so clean with excellent view. Awesome customer experience. I would definitely recommend BW at Kamloops if you are travelling from Calgary to Vancouver or vice versa.

Owner Response, 28 Mars 2022

Thank you for the kind words. We are glad to have Mohit join our Team!

"Best Western fits the bill!"
JoanandDoug, 22 Mars 2022

Clean, quiet, service oriented; we were just passing through Kamloops en route to Vancouver, didn't know exactly where we would end up so didn't prebook but it was no problem finding the hotel and checking in. Excellent wifi and good choices for the included breakfast.

Owner Response, 22 Mars 2022

Thank you for your comments. Many guests enjoy our facilities and yes, our wifi is great!

"Great hotel"
Daydream18033588021, 17 Mars 2022

The hotel is easy to get to, the room was clean, the staff was friendly and efficient. I really love the ease of check-in and check-out when you are a rewards member. I would definitely stay here again.

Owner Response, 17 Mars 2022

Thank you for your comments. Our BW Rewards is a great program for many travellers to our town!

"Kamloops, great weekend."
Nishni, 28 Février 2022

Went to Kamloops for a weekend track meet. Hotel was idea forbour purpose. Close to where the meet was and plenty of choice of restaurants nearby. This BW is an excellent place to stay in Kamkoops for any reason. I try to use this chain whenever I can but as it becomes more popular it is often difficult to find accommodation, especially at short notice.

Owner Response, 28 Février 2022

Thank you for your comments. Yes, it is a good idea to book early as we do fill up when any major event is happening in town!

"Great value"
Sophiemeister, 25 Février 2022

Family of 4 on a 3 night stay to ski at sunpeaks. Usually we stay in sunpeaks and pay $350/night but this year I couldn't afford that so this $180 full suite (microwave and fridge) was perfect for us just a 45 min drive to the mountain and the pool was a huge hit with my young kids as was the full breakfast. Planning on staying here next year too. Clean, modern, easy Highway access to sunpeaks, right near dominos and Tim Hortons- great choice!

Owner Response, 25 Février 2022

Thank you for your comments. We are a great winter value for skiing Sun Peaks. With many family activities around the hotel (Fun Factor, bouncy ball, etc) and a short drive to the hill.

"Unsatisfied"
Orbit6400, 21 Février 2022

Beds were grossly soft! Sunk right in. Stayed 5 nights with 4 people room was not cleaned or refilled until I complained the fourth day. One front desk clerk was very rude but the others were good. Hot tub had no jets,they said they were waiting on a part to fix it.

Owner Response, 21 Février 2022

WE are sorry your stay was anything but great! Our new beds on the floor you stayed on are upgraded pillowtop beds which are softer than normal but loved by many of our guests (we do have standard non pillow top rooms available). We are still waiting for a part for the jets which hopefully will come in this week (Feb. 22, 2022).

"Our go-to place to stay"
2Nikkels, 19 Février 2022

Passing through town and needed to stay 1 night, this location is our 'go to' spot in Kamloops. The rooms are always clean, staff are friendly, and the beds are consistently comfortable. We know it's going to be the same, consistent experience each time.

Owner Response, 19 Février 2022

Thank you for your review. We pride ourselves in our service and it is always great to hear we are achieving our goals!

"Central location"
shayhebert13, 30 Décembre 2021

Staff awesome and friendly, check in and out smooth. First room had some noticeable and concerning stains on the sheets. Staff quickly rectified and got us a new room. Central location for shops and food as my husband and I stayed to go shopping for Xmas and are from out of town. Breakfast had options but eggs bland.

Owner Response, 30 Décembre 2021

Thank you for your comments. We are sorry abou the situation in your first room and are reviewing how it was not caught in our cleaning process.

"Quick stay overnight for business"
MichaelJGunther, 26 Décembre 2021

Speedy check-in and check-out was great for a night doing a long distance delivery. I didn't book ahead, but they had a spacious room for me, access to the pool and because I left too early for their complimentary breakfast, they had a few packed breakfasts to give out to go for early guest checkouts (at 2 am!)

Owner Response, 26 Décembre 2021

Thank you for your review. Our Grab n Go for early risers is always appreciated.

"Great getaway"
720sherril, 13 Décembre 2021

Great hotel. The front desk employees were very friendly at both check in and check out. Bed was super comfortable and room was very clean. Loved the coffee machine in the lobby where you could get fancy beverages like lattes and cappuccinos. Would definitely stay there again and would recommend it to anyone staying in Kamloops.

Owner Response, 13 Décembre 2021

Thank you for your review. Our new lobby coffee machine is quite the hit for sure!

"Ski Trip"
darrenpars0ns, 06 Décembre 2021

Beautiful Hotel. Clean and modern look. I have stayed in many Hotels over the years and the Best Western plus is at the top of my list now. Lots of parking and close to City amenities. Friendly staff and very help full I was on a ski trip with friends and the hot tub and pool where a nice perk. Well worth it. I will be staying at this hotel again.

Owner Response, 06 Décembre 2021

Thank you for your kind words. We are glad you enjoyed your experience with us!

"Definitely a good hotel for all types!"

"BED BUG BEWARE!"
FarAway698002, 14 Novembre 2021

Sad to report that my business stay ended in finding a Bed Bug alive in the room I was staying in. Naturally I was horrified.Although the general manager apologized to me, they did not compensate me. I had many things to replace including my luggage. They claimed they “didn't know where the bed bugs came from” as their reason to not compensate me. Does that sound right to you?

Owner Response, 14 Novembre 2021

This guest did have her room comped (she was not bitten, just found a bed bug in the room). No other bug or infestation was found by our exterminator.

"Good choice while in Kamloops"
Ken T, 04 Novembre 2021

Good location within walking distance to restaurants and grocery stores. Ample parking with 2 EV chargers, although shared with wheelchair spots. Semi sketchy area of street people…..keep valuables out of sight!

Owner Response, 04 Novembre 2021

Thank you for your review. Yes, there is some street people in the area but it is always a good idea not to keep any valuables in your car when traveling. Most hotels have storage areas for large items, bikes, etc.

"Excellent Stay"
cafelts1970, 02 Novembre 2021

Staff and hotel were both excellent. Would recommend anyone to stay here. Questions were answered, explained areas of interest and advised us on weather conditions for driving to Vancouver on our last day.

Owner Response, 02 Novembre 2021

Thank you for your review. With the many changes on road conditions, our Team is always wanting to ensure our guests get to their next destination safely.

"Nothing went wrong"
462stuarta, 21 Octobre 2021

Checked in, nice stay. I had no issues, that is wonderful. The staff was good, rooms good, I have no complaints. I am a fussy person. Many times there has been some type of issue, this was a great hotel.

Owner Response, 21 Octobre 2021

Thank you for your review. We appreciate when our guests, even our fussy ones, tell us how were doing!

"Travelling with pups"
graycerabel, 20 Octobre 2021

We had 2 little pups travelling with us. The room was spacious, clean & all hard floors. No carpet anywhere was just the best & we appreciated this positive experience. We'll definitely stay here again.

Owner Response, 20 Octobre 2021

Thank you. we adjusted our pet freindly rooms to hard woods a few years ago which is much appreciated by our guests.

"Comfortable, Good Location"
Deb B, 16 Octobre 2021

Staff friendly. Room clean & efficient. Was nice having a separate bedroom and living room. No decaf coffee but nice coffee service. Breakfast ok. Would have liked a bit more variety. Would stay there again.

Owner Response, 16 Octobre 2021

Thank you for your comments. We do have decaf coffee available at the Front Desk for those who require it.

"Pet friendly hotel"
the3derbys, 14 Octobre 2021

Travelling with a pet has its challenges but this property made it convenient with ground floor room that had easy access to outside. Cookies upon arrival were a nice touch. Huge room with tiled floors worked well for our 1 night stay. Free breakfast was a bonus and self serve cappuccino topped the checkout.

Owner Response, 14 Octobre 2021

Thank you. We have all our pet rooms on the ground floor for easy access to the exterior.

"Excellent Sleep"
Casual C, 02 Octobre 2021

I find the sound-proofing in the room was not the greatest, as I could hear lots of noises from the hallway and footsteps from the upstairs' room. But I just finished a 4 week vacation with my girlfriend, and this was the most comfortable bed we've slept in during our trip. Kudos!

Owner Response, 02 Octobre 2021

We are sorry your stay was anything but enjoyable. We upgraded all our beds during Covid.

"Wonderful hotel close to the university"
Svetlana F, 28 Septembre 2021

We stayed at the hotel in September 2021. The room was very clean and the design of the room was lovely. The lobby had a wonderful coffee machine, where you can make cappuccinos, latte or other drinks you like 24/7. The quality of the drinks is better than some fancy coffee shops. The hotel still featured hot breakfast, which was very nica given that the majority of the hotels switched to bagged breakfast.

Owner Response, 28 Septembre 2021

Thank you. We are pleased that we are able to provide a breakfast service during these Covid times.

"Disappointing"
HD_Momma, 27 Septembre 2021

When we checked in, we were given key cards to a room that was already occupied so we had to drag our luggage back down to get a new room. The room we were given hadn't been properly cleaned. It was obvious that someone had been sitting on one of the beds and there was dirt and fluff where their feet had been on the bed spread. The bathroom counter was sticky and the tap was very streaked so I had to clean those. A dirty, used washcloth was still hanging on the shower rod. There was a long dark hair in the sink - we are both blonde. I dusted the lint and dust off the tv table and the Kleenex box. The hotel was apparently completely booked so I just cleaned up and we kept the room. We also overheard 3 different guests complaining about issues with their rooms. One guest was very angry as his issues hadn't been attended to. We are BW rewards members and I'm sad to say that this was very disappointing.

Owner Response, 27 Septembre 2021

We are sorry we did not show our true hospitality during your visit. I have private messaged the guest. Cleanliness is one of the important part of our service and we failed on this stay.

"Failure for handicapped"
744volunteer, 27 Septembre 2021

I reserved a room through Best Western's website. I specified I needed a room for a handicapped person. This instruction was not passed on to the hotel. What was interesting was they noted I was a new client but passed on contact info that I haven't used since April 2020. The hotel did find a handicap suite but obviously the designer has never travelled with a handicapped person. I suggest they look at the handicapped room at the Heartland Hotel in Lamont, AB to see what one should look like

Owner Response, 27 Septembre 2021

I am sorry about your reservation error. We did our handicapped rooms in partnership with the BC wheelchair society and the BC building code for handicapped access. We have a high rating with Rick Hanson Society for our rooms and have had many guests who stay that state we have only accessible rooms they can use in Kamloops due to our layout and setup.

"Comfortable & Convenient Albeit a Bit Loud"
anxiously_awaiting, 24 Septembre 2021

Stayed here one night during our recent road trip. Front staff were friendly enough and pool was lovely. The room was large and comfortable as was the bed. Unfortunately we could hear a number of neighbours well into the night - stomping and banging (cupboards?). Thankfully it eventually settled. Breakfast was lovely, especially being a hot breakfast with options to choose from. Would likely stay again in future.

Owner Response, 24 Septembre 2021

Thank you for your comments. Sorry you had some noisy neighbors on this visit. Banging the cupboards is not something we hear very often. will have to check cabinets near your room.

"Great reunion stay"
HappyW1971, 24 Septembre 2021

We had a suite, I was meeting a friend for the weekend and we really enjoyed the pool and hot tub, the location was awesome and the lady working the breakfast room was so joyful and pleasant. We really enjoyed them a lot. A downside was laundry room out of order but the front desk person directed us to a laundromat close by Also the bed was kind of worn out and we kept rolling into the middle. My friend seemed to always have to renew his key but mine worked the whole time! We enjoyed many sites and restaurants in the area. Really love Kamloops and hope to return again soon. Overall it was a great stay and we like the Best Western Plus a lot!

Owner Response, 24 Septembre 2021

Thanks for your review. We do have some new pillowtop beds on our top floor that may be considered soft by some guests.

"What a great hotel"
674danielbp, 23 Septembre 2021

This seems to be a newer property. We were very happy with our stay. Columbia Street is a busy place which means lots of restaurants and places to shop. Yet the rooms are very quiet. The young lady in the breakfast room was a true delight and the beakfast was terrific. We will stay here again

"Good for overnight stay"
scorpiogirl2, 20 Septembre 2021

We needed a place to stay on our way to Vancouver Island and almost every hotel in Merritt was booked already, so we chose Kamloops for our overnight stay. Got a special rate on the Best Western Plus and we were very happy with our stay. Big room, very comfortable beds and very convenient location close to several restaurants and shops. We didn't use the swimming pool, hot tub or fitness centre, but they all looked good. The free breakfast was good, with hot options to choose from ( bagels, pancakes, scrambled eggs and bacon), plus the usual continental breakfast items like yogurt, fruit, pastries and coffee and juice. Will definitely stay here again on a next visit to Kamloops.

Owner Response, 20 Septembre 2021

Thank you for your review. Many travelers use our location for their needs in Kamloops due to many of the comments you stated.

"Terry"
tla19682021, 15 Septembre 2021

The hotel wasn't bad just too expensive for what you get. Our first room was only half cleaned but they switched rooms for us. The pool wasn't very clean. It is a decent hotel but not worth $235. The breakfast wasn't very good but with the COVID restrictions it's to be expected. I didn't think they would even serve breakfast.

Owner Response, 15 Septembre 2021

We are sorry for the cleaning issue in the first room (it has been addressed with the staff member). The pool was very busy the day of your stay with many families using the facilities which can make the area messy. We get many compliments presently with our breakfast program (we plate and tray breakfast).

"Great view, staff and value"
Twhitney2021, 14 Septembre 2021

Stayed with my daughter in a King suite, and my mom & sister in another double queen room. Each room was large, clean and well laid out. We were able to gather in the suite to play games & watch TV together with enough seats & room for 5-6. Breakfast options were great and all of the staff was very friendly.

Owner Response, 14 Septembre 2021

Thank you for your review. Many families upgrade to our one bedroom suites for their spacious room and amenities.

"Bet Western Kamloops is a Great Spot!"

Wonderful hotel staff. The pool and gym are great but the show stopper is the breakfast! Convenient location for any family passing through to get to other destinations or for those sticking around Kamloops for longer stays.

Owner Response, 30 Août 2021

Thank you for your review. Many families are enjoying our facilities and services. Our pancake machine is definitely a hit with the kids!

"Nice hotel, bad experience"
GrandTour42372, 27 Août 2021

Hotel is nice and clean but bed was not comfortable and we had a screaming kid next room and got no sleep. Not the hotels fault I guess but not one person asked how our stay was, which I was disappointed about. Just said to ourselves we'd very likely never stay at this location again. Be warned the pancakes are really gross too. Maybe just a one time thing but it was like eating wet flour.

Owner Response, 27 Août 2021

We are sorry that you did not experience the true hospitality of our Team! We do get many families at the hotel due to the facilities we offer. I am surprised about the pancake comment as it is one of the highlights for many families in our breakfast program. We will take these comments and review internally to improve our services.

"Room was not Serviced"
shar0nmccaffrey, 22 Août 2021

Bedding, towels, Kleenex, coffee cups, drinking cups were missing. One unclean looking towel hung up. Location good - breakfast good. Staff wanted me to pick up missing supplies from the front desk. They did bring up some, but were complaining.

Owner Response, 22 Août 2021

This was our mistake. Room Attendant cleaned but did not go back and restock supplies in the room.

"Good family trip!"
Calgary_Beachcombers, 19 Août 2021

Price is high for what you get. Great to have breakfast included! Good to have 24 hr check in. A great location to use Air Miles rewards at. Will be better when the pandemic is over. More complimentary items for the price.

Owner Response, 19 Août 2021

Thank you for your comments. Our pricing this summer is actually still below our 2019 rates. Pent up demand has definitely increased demand this summer!

"Nice location"
Takusis, 17 Août 2021

The hotel, good location I was attending lectures at TRU so was less than 10min walk. Breakfast was OK, not lot of choice. The room was not very clean, had some stains in the carpet. And all the coffee maker and cups was full of dust. Paid nearly 200 a night and expected better quality, was there 5 nights. The pool area child friendly.

Owner Response, 17 Août 2021

W are sorry your stay was anything but great. With Covid and the local fires, keeping dust off of stayovers are difficult presently with much dust and ash in the air. I have asked Housekeeping to address the stain in the carpet as the staff member should of caught that before your arrival.

"Nice Hotel"
Krusty2021, 16 Août 2021

We were supposed to stay in Merritt BC but due to the fires we felt unsafe, The Best Western in Kamloops had a vacancy so we went there instead. The room was nice and clean, the beds were comfy and the internet was quick. My grandson loved the pool area. The breakfast was nice and hot, we had a western omelette with toast. The girls serving the breakfast were very friendly and helpful.

Owner Response, 16 Août 2021

Thank you for your review. Merritt is also a nice property, just they did have alot of smoke and fires presently. I hope you get to experience them in the future.

"bad booking details"
V5498ORjenniferj, 15 Août 2021

We had booked a pet room and it was confirmed by the front desk agent. Two days prior they cancelled our room because the front desk person did not actually book a pet room or get the guest number right. He was very busy getting me signed up for the rewards program though. We were travelling from 5 hrs away for a medical appointment with no other options, we live in rural BC. Very disappointed in BW, check your e-mail reservations if you book with these jokers.

Owner Response, 15 Août 2021

This guest booked with our central reservations who mistakenly booked them a non-pet room and we did not have any available due to the fire situation to accommodate them. We have reached out in a private message to the guest to apologize for the error that was done.

"amazing stay"
scrampton1818, 13 Août 2021

check in was fast desk clerk was super friendly and our room was vey comfy and clean! pool was amazing with the lazy river in it ! love it ! breakfast was like a take out resurant would rather it be bifft style but thats ok :)

Owner Response, 13 Août 2021

Thank you for the 5! While we are not back to buffet style breakfast yet, we have almost all of our pre-covid menu available by staff serving up, including our very popular pancake machine.

"Great Staff and clean room, but not a quiet hotel."
Sjgreenwood, 11 Août 2021

We stayed here for one night stop over on our way to Alberta. We arrived late at night and the lady on reception was super attentive and very kind offering is a free late check out if we needed it. The room is clean and well appointed with good coffee and tea making facilities. Unfortunately the walls are paper thin and you can hear most of what goes on around you throughout the night and early morning, so not a restful nights sleep at all and we are not light sleepers, particularly after a long journey. Due to covid protocols breakfast is served as a canteen style, which is fine and totally understandable, but as a result the food is not good. Cold scrambled eggs and cold sausages and just not tasty. It's a shame as this hotel has the potential to be great.

Owner Response, 11 Août 2021

We apologize that your experience is not what you expected. We have solid concrete walls between each room and yes, we are serviing canteen style which we are getting many compliments on the service and quality. Our scrambled eggs are cooked fresh daily.

"Good Accomodations for the price"
Jacob P, 10 Août 2021

First time staying at this particular location. It was nice enough for the price and location. Room was clean and inviting, air worked well and the beds were soft and comfortable after a long day on the road. Lots of food choices near by and the casino is 7 min away. I'd stay here again.

Owner Response, 10 Août 2021

Thank you for your review. Many travelers find our location fits their needs for their stay in Kamloops.

"Thank you for supporting wildfire suppression efforts!"
LeannaR1, 31 Juillet 2021

My job is to book travel accommodation for pilots performing wildfire suppression efforts throughout Western Canada. I think most people don't realize that hotels often will prioritize higher paying vacation guests (especially in peak areas during the summer) and it can be extremely stressful and difficult to try to find last minute accommodation for our employees. Jennifer Krohn (the operations manager of this location) and the rest of the staff have gone above and beyond this forest fire season to make arrangements for our staff (the first responders fighting the fires in that area). While many other hotels in this area refused to even put us on a wait list, or price gouged our first responders due to limited availability, this hotel made special arrangements to ensure that we had a place to stay. I hope that others recognize and support businesses like this that are doing their best and prioritizing the forest fire suppression efforts (not trying to profit off the fact that rooms are of limited availability).

Owner Response, 31 Juillet 2021

Thank you for your kind words. We are part of this community and always feel we have to be there when we are needed. We thank you for keeping our guests and our families safe!

"Staying in a dog kennel"
Tim S, 25 Juillet 2021

After a nine hour drive we checked into room, unpacked sat down to relax and a dog started barking and whining. Went into hallway and found the noise was coming from the room next door. Knocked on the door no answer. While in the hallway another dog approached and was led into the room two doors in the other direction from my room. Reported to staff and the only solution to the barking, whining dog was for my wife and I repack and move to another room. I would expect this situation in a lower priced motel not at a Best Western Plus!

Owner Response, 25 Juillet 2021

We are sorry for the pet issue. Guests are instructed to not leave their pets unattended which was the case here. The staff member wanted to ensure your piece and quiet so they chose to move you to ensure you had a peaceful stay. as the guest was not answering their cell phone also which was provided.

"Wonderful stopping stop"
Charlene E, 21 Juillet 2021

This is a perfect place to rest between Edmonton and Vancouver. The grandchildren loved the swimming pool. The lazy river was thoroughly enjoyed. The breakfast offered was delicious. My grandson was thrilled that he could go back for seconds. They even offered glutten free bread for our daughter with a wheat allergy. Will definitely stop again.

Owner Response, 21 Juillet 2021

"Hotel was ok, service wasn't"
traveler20012021, 07 Juillet 2021

The front desk staff at this hotel was not friendly and in fact, rather abrupt. We had to call for more towels and soap and the front desk clerk was rude and told us we had to get it ourselves. For the price, we were not satisfied as this was no better a hotel than the 2 star hotels we would typically stay at.

Owner Response, 07 Juillet 2021

We are sorry our service during your stay was anything but excellent. While it was a busy night for the staff member with a large walk-in volume, she could of handled it better.

We love staying here and do so about once a month or so. Most of the staff are amazing and our status are always great. This time was extra special! We had the pleasure of meeting their newest staff member from the front desk Miss Tatjanna and what an amazing , sweet wonderful young lady. She's always happy ,cheerful and always goes out of her way above and far beyond to make sure every single person feels amazing. She focuses her attention 100% on whoever she's talking to , maintains amazing eye contact . We've been staying in hotels around the world for years and have yet to encounter such amazing customer service. Good job Best Western you've definetely gained your best asset with Tatjanna at your front desk.

We chose this hotel for the pet friendly rooms and easy access out back for our small dog. The room was very large and clean. The beds were super comfy and in fact I wrote down the name on the pillow so I could find them for home. My only complaint is people who don't pick up after their pets.

"Excellent Service"
SICCY, 17 Janvier 2021

An overnight stay here to get away and go out for a nice dinner in Kamloops. Our room was ready when we arrived which was a bit earlier than normal check in time. We were on the 4th floor with a view overlooking the front entrance and city. We had previously stayed on the opposite side and noticed it was a bit quieter than this time. Room was clean. Normal amenities such as TV, coffee supplies, small fridge , etc. Breakfast was provided and in spite of Covid, they offered a very good selection. Upon check out our vehicle wouldn't start so the front desk receptionist offered to get their maintenance person to boost my battery. Turned out to be a loose terminal but he had the proper tools to secure it. Great service by the receptionist and maintenance. Thank you!

Owner Response, 17 Janvier 2021

Thank you for your review. I am glad our staff showed the superior customer care we are known for and strive to achieve with every guest!

"Not clean"
Rene975, 06 Novembre 2020

This room was not very clean. Dirt on the remote and cheese on the couch. The bathroom had hair from the previous guest. All at a time when there is suppose to be better cleaning for covid. The staff was not willing to help at all.

Owner Response, 06 Novembre 2020

We did fall down on this guests visit. We have spoken to the team member and reviewed our cleaning procedures including ensuring the final inspection before approving the room for occupancy. It was disinfected correctly, just not cleaned after disinfecting properly.

Great price and terrific room. The view our towards the east is nice. Well appointed and very comfortable. Breakfast was very good and it was prepared nice touch given the COVID situation. Front end staff very helpful and knowledgable about amenities near hotel.

"Great stay"
mjcamp192, 15 Octobre 2020

I will be staying here again at least twice, on my next return to Northern B.C. coming this October. We both felt safe and comfortable during this not so pleasant time of Covid19, when it has been necessary for my husband and me to travel. From the moment we were greeted in the lobby, that was well marked out for guests to stand and be spaced out properly . There was a refreshment area set up for guests upon arrival while waiting to register/ check in. I would recommend an excellent stay in the Best Western Plus Hotel in Kamloops, BC..

Owner Response, 15 Octobre 2020

Thank you. We are following both BC Health Guidelines and "We Care Clean" Brand standards for Covid 19. Our guest safety and comfort are our #1 priority!

We had a staycation for my daughters 5th birthday. We had a wonderful time! The bed was very comfortable and we really enjoyed the pool! The service was excellent! Loved the option of still having breakfast for my girls with covid!

Owner Response, 15 Octobre 2020

Thanks and hope your daughter had fun in the pool!

"A little outdated, but comfortable"
jjBC61, 08 Octobre 2020

The rooms could use some updating, but they were very large and comfortable. The staff was very friendly, though the checkin process took a long time (almost 30 minutes). There was only one person on duty at peak check in time (she mentioned they were a bit shorthanded) and there was a long line of people checking in (properly spaced). As several didn't have reservations and/or weren't Rewards members, it took a while. But good location for a night's stay when on the road, close to the highway and restaurants. Good breakfast options in the time of Covid.

Owner Response, 08 Octobre 2020

Thank you for your comments. We were a staff member short that night. We have renovated our 4th floor and have delayed the 3rd and 2nd floor until we can ensure cash flow to both operate all winter and renovate this spring.

"Great Post Covid experience"
rddukee, 04 Octobre 2020

bneal7, 08 Août 2020

We had a great stay at this location, staff was friendly, easy to talk to and all were very helpful. The cost per night was good for the value we got, especially due to the Covid. The check in was easy, from desk staff was very helpful in providing us with a location for dining, we got to the hotel sort of late. I would go there again, hands down.

Owner Response, 08 Août 2020

"What a shame"
canadianworldtravelr, 08 Août 2020

Great hotel. Best Best Western I have been to in a while. Nice staff. Clean. But my car was vandalized and played stolen in the parking lot. No warning or caution on check in. Then when it happened, they said it happens all the time. Their security footage was mute. Awful end to a nice stay. Dont stay here if you have a car. It will get vandalized and people in Kamloops just consider that "normal".

Owner Response, 08 Août 2020

Guest had her plates stolen. It was the Police who stated it happens all the time, not the hotel. As she parked with back facing street, camera does not show the plates taken. Staff went out of their way to find options of how she could still drive home without plates (It took a few calls to find a supervisor for ICBC, who explained what the guest had to do to get a permit).

Thank you! We have established safe protocols to meet all BC Health Standards for the safety of our guests and staff! We are currently updating our Breakfast Program to include reopening our Breakfast room with social distancing as of June 15, 2020!

"Central location"
GrahamK946, 05 Février 2020

The hotel has a covered area next to the foyer for un/loading your car when arriving or departing- good when snowing. The lift is big making it easy to get suitcases in. The breakfast was superb, immaculately clean and well catered. The rooms are a good size. The bed & pillows excellent for comfort and rest. The hotel has a car wash, gas station and shopping centres close by. Good location for the shuttle bus to Sun Peaks. The young bloke at the reception was very helpful with the invoicing. If lucky enough to return to Kamloops, we'd gladly stay again.

Owner Response, 05 Février 2020

Thank you for your patronage and review!

The rooms were large and CLEAN!. They are pet friendly and accepted our 20lb dog no problem (with a pet fee of course). We stayed at two other hotels throughout the province this trip and none of them were as clean as the Best Western. Definitely will stay here again.

Owner Response, 02 Février 2020

"Clean and large rooms."
darrenhildebrandt1, 20 Janvier 2020

The room was very clean, large with a large bathroom. The hotel had a large clean pool and hot tub. There was also a continental breakfast. The internet was fast and efficient. Staff was friendly and able to answer all questions.

Discover26772525855, 12 Janvier 2020

Traveling with my daughter and 4 little ones and staff were friendly and accommodating and made it a pleasant break in a stressful travelling time. (/roads were bad). We chose to stop to make it more fun for kids and the pool and breakfast made it a joy to travel with the family.

Owner Response, 12 Janvier 2020

Thank you for your review. We had a few families who like you, chose to stop due to the road conditions this past weekend.

ND F, 08 Janvier 2020

In town for business so spent the night. Was offered advance check-in via BW's mobile app so proceeded that route. When I got the to lobby all I had to do was show ID and the CC I was using. I was upgraded in room (KS on top floor). Very quiet on the back side of hotel, room was clean and it was quiet.

Owner Response, 08 Janvier 2020

Thank you for your review. Many of our guests are liking our Mobile app that allows them to provide a lot of the details needed to speed up check-in before they arrive.

"Both good and very bad!"
travelbuffs41, 07 Janvier 2020

We were traveling down to Kamloops for a funeral of a close family member...a parent! I asked if they have any special rates for people traveling for a funeral and staying 3 nights. I was told the manager that looks after these types of special rates was away until the following week which doesn't help us at all. The room we were given was directly across from the elevator so we could hear people waiting/exiting the elevator and all the cleaning staff with their trolleys early in the morning. I must say the room was very clean and nice, even though it faced the parking lot and columbia street The bed had a big hole/dip in the one side and made me feel like I was gonna roll out of bed onto the floor. The pool was very very cold which made my daughter shiver almost immediately. The hot tub was almost too hot to use...I'm guessing it was 103f or 104f which was quite surprising for a hotel hot tub. There are no change rooms in the pool area and the shower is right on the pool deck area. Both nights we used the pool/hot tub there were no towels left in the pool area to dry off with. The breakfast room was nice and spacious. It had a nice selection of toast, scrambled eggs, sausage, bacon, pancakes, muffins, cereal, and juice/milk/coffee to drink, unfortunately the food was cold 2 out of the 3 days we were there. There is no bar or restaurant in this hotel so both nights we were forced to order out and leave the hotel to go get dinner. We would have of had 2 other groups of family members stay there with us but we couldn't rightfully recommend this hotel to them as it was very expensive and we couldn't give it a good review after our first night there. DEFINITELY not a 4 stay hotel !!

Owner Response, 07 Janvier 2020

We are sorry you did not enjoy your stay with us during your visit to Kamloops. Our pool and hot tub are maintained to Health Dept. standards but can seem hot or cold with the outside temperature changes this time of year. Our 2nd and 3rd floor will be getting new beds this spring (we did the 4th floor last year). We will do a check of our rooms for any bed issues as this is the first complaint like this on our beds. We use remarks like this to review our services to assist the Team in improving their performance in the future.

"Repeat customer because you can count on BW Kamloops"
jimmyrc55, 04 Janvier 2020

I have been seeking out BW Plus on all my trips over the past 3 years. Their hiring of quality staff is excellent (no I do not have any family working for them) and their attitudes are always great. The rooms and amenities are first class for my purposes and the range can be very first class to always a room and hotel I can count on. BW Plus Kamloops never disappoints.

Owner Response, 04 Janvier 2020

Thank you. Yes, we do hire quality staff and provide quality facilities. We just upgraded our 4th floor and will be upgrading our beds on our 2nd and 3rd floor this winter to ensure our standards meet our guests expectations. We thank you and many of our regular guests for recognizing our efforts and your patronage.

"Poor service"
GrandTour37070211212, 30 Décembre 2019

The building is great but the service is poor. Food trashes on the room carpet, loose treadmill in the fitness room. Only 2 towels in the room whereas I had made a reservation for 2 adults and 2 kids. Staff don't show a welcoming attitude. This place has lower quality compared to BW Plus hotels in Ft McMurray and Fernie.

Owner Response, 30 Décembre 2019

We are sorry you did not enjoy your stay. The treadmill has been fixed (your note was the first report). There are more towels on the shelf of the bathroom cabinet in each room as we put 3 sets minimum in each room and add when more guests noted on reservations.

"My opinion"

"Great Hotel"
darleen22018, 15 Décembre 2019

The Best Western in Kamloops is an excellent hotel to stay at in the area. The view over the city with the Xmas lights sparkling was delightful. The staff from all levels to the front desk, breakfast nook and cleaning staff were pleasant and accomodating for whatever we needed. The hotel was nicely decorated for Xmas which made our stay even more pleasant.

Owner Response, 15 Décembre 2019

Thank you for the review! Our staff and owner's do get into the Xmas Spirit! We just confirmed our hotel is reducing the points needed to stay on a free night until Feb. (only 10,000 BW Points - Sun - Thurs). Merry Xmas!

"My first choice hotel"
GARY K, 05 Décembre 2019

Best Western is my go too hotel chain and has been for a dozen or more years. Now sort of retired it's still my #1 go to. Always friendly staff and you know that you will be satisfied with the experience each and every time. Their are minor differences in each hotel but I have never not been pleased

Owner Response, 05 Décembre 2019

"Great stay, great breakfast"
Rawb_R_Travels, 02 Décembre 2019

I'd recommend this hotel, out of all the Best Westerns in Western Canada, this is in the top 3 and the breakfast was probably one of the best if not the best. There are also decent restaurants within minutes from here.

Owner Response, 02 Décembre 2019

Thank you for your review and compliments of our Breakfast Program. We are always striving to achieve a high satisfaction in our program and it is nice when we hear we are succeeding!

"Great hotel for business trip!"

Huge rooms and very professional hotel. Our stays here frequently on business in the Kamloops area. Only complaint is that beds are too hard for my liking. The hotel is near two great Indian restaurants.

Owner Response, 23 Novembre 2019

Thank you for your review. We are changing our standard room beds this spring to new Eurotop models! They will be a little softer than the great Serta Perfect Sleepers we have now! Our Top Floor has already been changed to pillow top models.

"Pool and hot tub"
MWG24, 05 Novembre 2019

This is a great hotel for a business stay. Very functional. The pool and hot tub were amazing and relaxing after a days work. The breakfast was served on paper plates which I thought greatly diminished the otherwise quite tasty experience. Convenient location though.

Owner Response, 05 Novembre 2019

Thank you for your comments. As part of our "Green Program", our plates are compostable and made from renewable products. This eliminates the need to use harsh chemicals to clean china which then the water used is then filtered thru the city sewer system and put into the river system after. We feel this is a greener solution for us in Kamloops!

"Exemplary Stay at Best Western Plus"
Glen G, 24 Octobre 2019

Every "once-in-awhile" we get pleasantly surprised by an exemplary property and its staff. This certainly applies to the Best Western Plus Kamloops Hotel. The front desk personnel treated us as special people. We were also pleasantly surprised by the room upgrade that was given to us. The small suite was incredibly clean, modern, and everything worked to our satisfaction. Prospective travelers should also be aware that a complementary breakfast is available. We appreciated the wide array of cold and hot items. We tried hard to find something wrong with this hotel. We were unsuccessful. We have no hesitation in recommending this fine property.

Owner Response, 24 Octobre 2019

Thank you for your kind words. This fall we are starting some upgrades to improve our all ready great facilities!

"Great Location, and Clean"

"Average at best"
calgaryflateric, 14 Octobre 2019

We found the location of this hotel to be its most appealing attraction. Staff looked tired, and displayed very poor customer service. There was a miasma of cigarettes throughout the hotel. Breakfast was unappealing, however, the coffee tasted great.

We are sorry we did not meet your expectations. We are a smoke free property and strive to maintain that for all our guests. We are sorry that our other guests made your stay unenjoyable.

hotel was almost 3/4 full, quiet night and very comfy bed. microwave and fridge an asset. only thing that woke us up was the maid but it was 8 am and time to get on with the day. Wifi wasn't the greatest but it worked. Room was clean but dusty - they should have done a quick room check before we arrived.

this was a last minute stop in Kamloops and and we were lucky to get a room everything I had checked on line was booked but took a shot and they had a room available . The front desk people were very nice and helpful as well as the Breakfast ladies were very accommodating. Overall a great hotel and is close to plenty of restaurants and stores.

Owner Response, 30 Septembre 2019

Thank you for your review. Yes, sometimes we do hold last minute rooms that may come open but booking ahead and direct is always a good idea!

"Very disappointing"
Jane M, 29 Septembre 2019

Having spent five days at the Osoyoos Best Western which was amazing, we decided to stay at the Best Western Kamloops. This was very disappointing. The room was depressingly dark but clean and tidy. The front desk staff were disinterested. Breakfast was mediocre. This hasn't stopped us using Best Western Hotels.

Owner Response, 29 Septembre 2019

We are sorry you did not enjoy your stay with us. The Osoyoos is a great property but more of a extended stay product which we are not (i.e. they have kitchenettes and host snow birds in the winter). Our breakfast program is constantly being changed and updated, we are sorry you did not enjoy what we were offering during your stay.

"Decent average place for over night stay "
CWJSLondon, 20 Septembre 2019

I stayed here on a stop over on the way from jasper back to Vancouver. It was a nice base from which to have dinner out in jasper and do some shopping. The place is clean , good sized rooms, and the bed was very comfortable. I personally slept very badly as there was a green smoke alarm light right above my bed which I could do nothing about and did emit quite a lot of light when it was dark. I ended up on the small sofa at one point just to get away from being under the light. I am sure this wouldn't at all bother most people but I find it hard to sleep without darkness. The breakfast which was free was functional and nice but nothing to write home about. There is a smallish pool and small fitness room (it's not a gym). An average place but a decent stop over with free parking.

Owner Response, 20 Septembre 2019

Thank you for your review. Our pool and hot tub are saltwater, thereby no chemicals.

"Average western"
javierrW1520ZF, 20 Septembre 2019

I enjoyed the room and the bed. I slept very well. The breakfast was kind of basic, good, but basic. And the gym the same, quite basic. The staff was nice and chatty. The hotel is far from the downtown (not that there is much to see there).

Owner Response, 20 Septembre 2019

Thank you for your review. Our location is ideal for shopping and enjoying the many international cuisines near our hotel.

"Where are my reward points?"
FireHorseSire66, 18 Septembre 2019

Didn't give me all of my reward points, or my Green option points. Room was dusty, poor housekeeping. Asked for a late checkout, put the DND sign on the door, the housekeeper still disturbed us early, and asked if we were a late checkout, I said yes, she said front desk didn't tell her, front desk said they did and got in to a blame game. No towels in the pool area. Wifi kept dropping off. This BW location continues to deliver poor service, on the most basic of things. The saving grace was the dining room attendant 2 of the three nights we stayed there was fantastic, professional, and attentive. I wish a second BW would open in Kamloops so we had options.

Owner Response, 18 Septembre 2019

Thank you for your comments. Our records do show that your points for doing the Green option was posted upon checkout. It can take a few days to a week to appear in your account. We do apologize for the misunderstanding on your departure and the team had a meeting to clear up procedures on DND signs on doors. We strive to provide superior customer care and did not meet this standard on your stay. We will strive to do better!

"Good accommodation "
woodmister, 24 Juillet 2019

I had issues with my reservation due to BW corporate policies. After being spun around by some national BW employees, I decided to stay at this hotel anyway - mostly because the women at the front desk was so kind. Know, the following: the parking is ample, the rooms are fine, the breakfast was better than average, the WiFi worked very well and the service was professional. Over the last two weeks, I have stayed in maybe 7 different properties throughout south and south-central BC (Cranbrook, Kelowna, Grand Forks, Kamloops, twice, and Whistler. All of these stays involved Wyndham, Hilton and some independents - this BW was the best.

"NOT WORTH THE MONEY"
anthonypS8291ZB, 18 Juillet 2019

Although the lobby and exterior of the hotel look nice the rooms are horribly furnished. Bed is uncomfortable, walls are paper thin and the decor is horrendous. Stay at the Sandman Signature which is less expensive and in a completely different leauge than this place.

"Reasonable room for disabled clients"
Alex H, 17 Juillet 2019

The Kamloops Best Western has made a pretty good accessible room with excellent bathroom facilities. The bathroom is very large and fully tiled, including a wheel in shower (also bench provided) with a large amount of room for even the largest clients. The general suite has a large main room with a secondary bedroom off to the side. The bed in the room is comfortable but very hard to get onto because of the height off the ground. People in wheelchairs who cannot stand will have problems getting on the bed and may have to use the fold out couch which makes into a twin bed. This hotel gives you a lot more room to pay with than any other hotel I have stayed at. As a disabled male (late 50's) who cannot stand I have used this hotel on multiple occasions and my only caution is the height of the main queen sized bed. If you can weight bear this is less of a problem but the bed may still be high for shorter people (under 5'4") who can stand.

Owner Response, 17 Juillet 2019

Thank you for your comments. This is the first time we have been noted the bed height. We will review if we are able to make one of our 4 rooms with a lower bed to resolve this issue.

"Not my first choice for hotel in Kamloops"
warawa121, 08 Juillet 2019

The hotel was in good location but most hotels in Kamloops are. The inside decor is very clean but just a dark outdated interior. It was the noise level that would deter me from staying again. I could hear the footsteps from the floor above very easy. So much so that it woke me in the early morning. Also the noise from the hallway was easily heard too. The bathrooms in the room are at same end as the beds so the disturbance of noise from someone in the bathroom can be heard when you are in bed too. Whereas other hotels placement of the bathroom is right when you open the door so there is more separation from the noise and the opening off the bathroom door isn't immediately right into the main sitting and sleeping area of the room. This was by far the biggest downfall of this hotel. I could put up with the outdated decor but if you are a light sleeper then pack earplugs or avoid booking here or you won't get much sleep.

Owner Response, 08 Juillet 2019

We are sorry you did not enjoy your stay. Our bathroom design was to eliminate the bathroom pipe noises from other guests that you would get with a bathroom by the front door which we believe we have accomplished.

"Could have been a 5 rating.....if staff were friendlier"
wkcb, 07 Juillet 2019

We recently stayed here for 6 nights at the end of June. During our stay, while recovering from a medical situation, we experienced horrible main desk service on a daily basis. We do a fair bit of travelling and have always found that the front desk staff set the tone for a stay- asking how your day has been, what are your plans while you stay, are you new to the area, a simple good Morning, just wholesome down to earth customer service. The front desk staff at this location needs major overhauls. Seldom ever acknowledging anyone to the point of being rude. We were locked out of our room continually so we had a lot of interactions with front desk staff. Sadly, while they were having problems with their electronic locks, we the guests were made to feel like an inconvenience. At 1 point 4 of us on the 4th floor were locked out of our rooms and looked at each other wondering who would draw the short straw to go down to the main desk to ask for help to get us in our rooms yet again. On day 3, it took no less than 3 trips down to request the key be reset. Finally on the last trip I asked the gal to come up with me as I wasn't going to go down any more times. Our saving grace at this hotel was the breakfast hostess- Michelle. She was so friendly, asking everyone how their Day was going, did they need anything. She should be a trainer for the rest of the team. She is the reason we didn't check out earlier and find a different place to stay. The hotel is clean and well taken care of. It is easy to find and located close to many places that can be walked to.

Owner Response, 07 Juillet 2019

First, I want to apologize for the service you received during your stay. I was not aware of this situation and will review with the staff to find out why the lock problems happened. with RFID locks, this should not happen. We strive to provide superior customer care to all guests, and yes, Michelle in breakfast is a great example of the level of service we strive to achieve each day. We just won the Certificate of Excellence for 2019 and the Hall of Fame award!! We will strive to maintain that level in the future.

"End of tour."
LouCHRP, 05 Juillet 2019

I was at the end of an 8 day tour and stayed over to catch a flight home the next day. The hotel itself was excellent. My only issue is that I did not have a car and there were no restaurants near by.

Owner Response, 05 Juillet 2019

Thank you for your review. We have over 20 restaurants within 3 blocks of hotel with many cuisines for our guests to choose from. We have a list and map at our Front Desk.

Inspire21299023313, 24 Juin 2019

Nice location and well priced. I was surprised at how close it was into town off the highway, after driving all day it's nice to get to your location with having to navigate all over town. Clean hotel room and decently priced.

Owner Response, 24 Juin 2019

Thank you. Like you, many guests find our location great for getting off and on the highway but still close to many city amenities for your stay needs (restaurants, shopping, gas, etc)

"Enjoyed my 4 night stay"
Anne C, 23 Juin 2019

My adult daughter and I stayed here for 4 nights and overall, it met my expectations. The included breakfast was good, although they only change the eggs/meat between 2 options so it would have been nice to have some variety. The pool and hot tub were great but I found the floor quite slippery and it could be dangerous. The rooms were typical hotel rooms but the beds were comfortable. I don't understand why most hotels have bath towels that do not wrap around a regular sized person. Some of the front desk staff were really friendly and others no so much.

Owner Response, 23 Juin 2019

Thank you for your review. We are sorry we did not meet or exceed your expectations.

Christina P, 17 Mai 2019

We spent a night recently and found the staff friendly and room clean. The breakfast offered lots of choices and there were a number of parking spots available. The hotel is in an area with many restaurants and shops but also not far from the highway. The only downsides were the rooms didn't seem to be very soundproof and the beds/pillows weren't super comfortable.

Owner Response, 17 Mai 2019

Thank you for your comments. We are sorry you did not enjoy our beds.

"Nice breakfast!"
Cdn_traveller59, 10 Mai 2019

Apart from a comfortable, clean room and friendly, efficient staff, Best Western is noted for breakfasts and this one did not disappoint. Different egg and meat options both days (scrambled and sausage one day, western omelette and bacon the other). Another interesting touch was a pancake maker instead of a waffle maker. TIP: even numbered rooms face the road and there can be quite a bit of traffic noise.

Owner Response, 10 Mai 2019

Thank you for your comments. We try to provide a variety as much as possible for our guests that stay more than one night.

"It's not often I RECOMMEND a hotel BUT"
Rawb_R_Travels, 04 Mai 2019

O have absolutely NO complaints about this hotel. If anything the mattresses and the breakfasts are less than stellar but overall I liked everything about it. It must be new construction because the layout was definitely different but the shower was the best water pressure, the breakfast was decent, sleep was good. Although come to think of it the heater was a little noisy of you are a light sleeper? And it uses the "old knob style" thermostat so it takes a while to get the temp correct. Which sucks if you have to adjust it in the middle of the night. Other than that... it's the best place I've stayed in Kamloops so far!! Cheers!

Owner Response, 04 Mai 2019

Thank you for your review. Actually, our heater has a thermostat on the wall that is to be used to turn it up or down (wireless system). We did do a unique design in that the plumbing is all between rooms so no one sleeps by any plumbing.

Don M, 26 Avril 2019

The counter staff made a real difference in our stay. Whether we were coming or going, the staff always greeted us with a warm smile and a good morning r afternoon. My sister was suffering with laryngitis and one of the front desk staff brought up a kettle and some teabags, so she could soothe her throat with a hot cup of tea. The room was comfortable and the beds above average, with plenty of pillows.

Room was clean, refreshment station in lobby, pool and hot tub open till 10:00 p.m. I can count on Best Western for a great stay, no matter what city or country I'm in. Always high standards.

happpycamper, 02 Avril 2019

We had a very enjoyable stay for one night. the check in was smooth and friendly. Our room was quiet and very clean. Really appreciate having a microwave and refrigerator. The bed was a little soft for our preference, but the pillows came in a selection of fullness and we found them to be to our liking. The breakfast was hot and ample with scrambled eggs, bacon, fruit salad and a selection of danish. there was also cereal and a pancake maker etc. I would not hesitate to stay here again.

GouletteAmy, 21 Mars 2019

I picked this hotel because of the reviews, and I was not disappointed. We had our two dogs with us, which normally I hate staying in hotels when I have my dogs because the pet friendly rooms are usually disgusting. This was not the case at this best western. The room was very big with lots of space for my 4 year old to play. The pool was nice but too cold for me. My son was happy tho! The free breakfast was very good and had more selection than most other hotels I've been to. All and all it was very clean and the staff were very friendly.

Owner Response, 21 Mars 2019

"Less than expected"
70Brian44, 06 Mars 2019

Arrived after 8. Young lady at the desk was a trainee. Put us on the 3rd floor rather than the 4th as requested. Did not explain that it was an upgraded room until questioned. The “trainer” sat on his butt playing on a computer, offering no assistance. When we came down later to go out to eat, asked him the closest place. He grunted Brown's Social Club, two blocks away. We walked the two blocks and discovered a multitude of eating establishments, some much closer than Brown's. Next morning at check out, staff did not say good morning, how was your stay, nothing! They need to be trained that they are in the hospitality business!

Owner Response, 06 Mars 2019

We have contacted the review in a private message. Our staff did not provide superior customer service as we are noted for. We will be speaking with the training Front Desk agent to ensure the training is more robust and active for our new employees.

"Dark and Depressing"
Jen K, 06 Décembre 2018

Staff were friendly and welcoming, but the hotel is dark and depressing. Brown and green that are both muddy and, well, look like they are just meant to hide dirt and wear and tear. Carpet is also dark brown and not very clean. Gives the feel of an old roadside motel - not what I was expecting from BW, especially a Plus hotel. Breakfast was ok, but packaged and reheated food - I have had better. Bed was good, water pressure good, wifi ok. I wouldn't go back.

"Dirty room and disinterested staff"
Janna S, 01 Octobre 2018

We travelled to Kamloops to visit family at the end of September, and stayed at the Best Western Plus for two nights. I chose this hotel as my mother had stayed there four years ago and it was quite nice then. We arrived very late the Friday night. Check-in was ok, but we were disappointed in our room. It was stark and cheap-feeling. The next morning when I went to shower I noticed that behind the door in the bathroom was absolutely filthy. This is beside the bathtub directly opposite the toilet. It looked as if it had never been cleaned. Upon putting down the bath mat I noticed that there were toenails in dirt and hair. Obviously not ours, since we had just arrived. I was not happy about this, and brought it up to the front desk staff, along with the fact that we had only 2 towels even though we were in a multiple bed room (presumably used mostly for families). Although the front desk staff looked disgusted, they only made a note to "service the room". Upon returning at the end of the day, the mess was still there even though the room had been cleaned, and once again there were only 2 towels. Upon complaining once again to the front desk, I was told they would check the room again while we were at dinner. When we returned, we did have extra towels, however the toenail was still there. This did not surprise me as the front desk had told me when we entered the hotel that he had checked the room and it looked fine. At that point I gave up. The breakfast was quite good, beds were ok, pool was nice, and internet was good. I am a diamond member and travel often for work and for leisure. I am not returning to this hotel ever, and will actively warn people away from the hotel. My interactions with the staff showed their lack of concern, and if something so obvious and disgusting does not phase them, then it begs the question of what else is being overlooked.

"Kamloops BEST"
MICHEAL P, 29 Septembre 2018

We stayed here in September 2018 for three nights. Overall the stay at this BW was great. Clean rooms. Central location. Nice hot breakfast. Large pool and hot tub. My only criticism would be that the pool temperature was too cool for autumn. We will be back!

Owner Response, 29 Septembre 2018

Thank you for your review.

"Clean and Well Maintained Facility"
mfrick, 24 Septembre 2018

This Best Western Plus facility was very clean and well maintained. The staff were very pleasant to deal with. I received my rewards status room upgrade without asking for it. Great place to stay for business and pleasure. I will for sure stay there again.

Owner Response, 24 Septembre 2018

Thank you for your review. We are glad we can provide our superior customer care to our guests, especially our Elite Best Western Rewards members!

"Best western kamloops"
bakedpeach, 23 Septembre 2018

Staff were very helpful, fast check in and check out. Only issue was hallways were at bit noisy with guests talking and doors closing . Room was clean and well set up . Breakfast was a goood selection. Back parking lot was dark, and only access was on end of building for the back parking lot

Owner Response, 23 Septembre 2018

Thank you for your review. We are updating our exterior lighting to new LED which will include additional exterior lighting in parking lots.

"Taking a break"
Venture833782018, 21 Septembre 2018

I'm getting quite used to the comfort and quality of the Best Western Plus. It's become our hotel of choice for overnight stopovers between Calgary and Vancouver. Taking a break, reset, and enjoy the next leg of the journey.

Owner Response, 21 Septembre 2018

Thank you for your comments. We are reviewing our rooms to improve our product for our guests, stay tuned as we finalize the program!

"Convenient location and that's about all."
Larry F, 20 Septembre 2018

Check in was painfully slow and disappointing. No apparent reason for the delay. I was the only one there and there were two clerks. Room was efficient but the bathroom had this weird low sink that one has to stoop over. Lots of restaurants in the area and breakfast is provided in the morning.

Owner Response, 20 Septembre 2018

Thank you for your comments. Our normal check in process takes about 2 minutes to ensure we have all the correct information and can setup your check out to be faster.

"ALWAYS A GREAT PLACE TO STAY"
davidlT7865TW, 20 Septembre 2018

We have stayed at this property numerous times over the years and it is always a great stay. Nice rooms and pleasant staff. It is within walking distance to stores and good restraints. A great location with views over the city.

Owner Response, 20 Septembre 2018

Thank you for your review. Like you, many of our guests enjoy our central location with great restaurants within walking distance.

"Great choice for everyone"
Marian B, 14 Septembre 2018

The staff were extremely helpful and always genuinely welcoming. The room was quite large with lots of space to arrange luggage and still have seating. Close to a number of dinner options and served a lovely breakfast. Guest laundry was also a bonus.

Owner Response, 14 Septembre 2018

Thank you for you review. We are a ideal location for guests to enjoy the city!

"Nice Clean and Quiet"

Great spot, excellent value, decent breakfast and parking for a five ton truck. Can't really ask for more. Hotel staff was friendly and helpful. Starbucks is just across the street for the morning coffee before you hit the road.

"Comfortable stay and great staff"
mortimon, 10 Septembre 2018

Stayed at this hotel on my way between Vancouver and Jasper. Plenty of parking outside, and the girls in the reception were welcoming and funny. Room was big, and beds were really comfortable. Also a plus that you have a pool and a gym, as a gym is sometimes hard to come by when you're travelling around. I would appreciate some free weights though! Maybe a kettlebell or two. Plenty of restaurants around the area, and the reception had some good tips. Breakfast was decent and simple, with several types of coffee. I didn't like the use of single-use plastics though, although I understand that it's alot easier than doing dishes.

Owner Response, 10 Septembre 2018

Thank you for your review. Our single-use cutlery and plates are all made from reusable resources and bio-degradable as part of our Green Program. We do not have to use harsh chemicals to clean cutlery, etc which then does not get flushed into the water systems.

"OK Place to stay"
Gary S, 07 Septembre 2018

The appearance and hotel staff are great. Even the pool and breakfast are great. The hotel does need a upgrade. the beds are old and the carpets are wore out. The staff do a great job keeping it cleanand are very pleasant.

Owner Response, 07 Septembre 2018

Thank you for your comments. We are in a renovation plan of upgrading our standard room beds this fall and a partial carpet change out. We are not that old a property but have been very busy so these items do wear out sooner than expected.

"Ok"
Papageorgio18, 02 Septembre 2018

Hotel was fine. Room smelt stale and alittle like dog when we entered. Front desk agent was great and offered another room. It too smelt musty and far from fresh but we didn't want to complain again. Air conditioning was off and window closed. Cleanliness was pretty good but something had obviously been spilled down the wall and missed. Breakfast room was nice. No potatoes or hashbrowns offered unlike many other hotels. Nice pool. A tad chilly for young kids but that is a preference. Overall a fine stay. I found the price high for the quality compared to other Best Westerns.

Owner Response, 02 Septembre 2018

Thank you for your review. The smell was from the city who had a problem with some biosolids they were working on (it was in the news). This has been a problem for a few days. We did not find out ourselves until it was in the news, just guests and staff keep finding this smell from time to time for about 3 days.

"Love this hotel"
Michell S, 29 Août 2018

We always stay at this hotel when we are in Kamloops. If I could I would sleep the entire time because I love the bed and bedding . The food in the breakfast buffet is always awesome. The pool and hot tub are only second to the bed. Always hate having to leave, I would live there if I could.

Owner Response, 29 Août 2018

Thank you for all the love! It is always nice to hear when our superior service has made the stay of our guests. We look forward to your return!

"Transitional hotel"
BertaAC, 29 Août 2018

On our way to the very West, we spend the night here. Huge rooms, super friendly staff with good tips. Very far from the city centre, only shopping malls around. Nice swimming pool and jacuzzi. Breakfast not fantastic but fine.

Owner Response, 29 Août 2018

Thank you for your review. There are also many international cuisine restaurants within walking distance of the hotel.

"Another great BW stay!"
Stacey S, 28 Août 2018

We arrived in Kamloops after a fun day stopping at some local sites. Our hotel the night before had been a bit of a disappointment so we were looking forward to getting back to the quality we enjoy at BW. Check in was smooth and easy with a very friendly woman at the front desk. Our first room, unfortunately, had a unpleasant smell (to us) and the front desk readily accommodated our request to switch rooms. We ended up in a pet friendly room on the first floor which we very much enjoyed! I liked the fact the pet friendly rooms do not have carpeting. The room was very spacious and clean with a nice sized bathroom and a fridge. The beds were ultra comfortable and everyone enjoyed a great sleep. We enjoyed the pool. It was a great size and had lots of varying depths for all kinds of swimmers. Hot tub was very relaxing. We also enjoyed the complimentary breakfast the next morning, one of the best we've had at BW! The room was very large with lots of seating and we had amazing food options! The breakfast staff were very attentive to the food and beverage and went above and beyond to keep the area clean and well stocked. The location is so conveniently located to many great restaurants and shopping options. We were overall very impressed with our stay here and look forward to returning one day!

Owner Response, 28 Août 2018

Thank you for your review. We are sorry the first room was not up to par. With the wildfire smoke, we are not always able to air out our rooms as normal this time of year. Hopefully the air will clear up quickly so we can get back to our fresh air in Kamloops we are known for.

"Vacation with friends"
Carol T, 28 Août 2018

Nice place and friendly staff. We were traveling in a group on motorcycles. The room was very comfortable. The checkin was quick and easy. The staff recommended places to eat. The breakfast that came with the stay was good.

Owner Response, 28 Août 2018

Thank you for your comments. We get many motorcycle groups during the summer and enjoy their visits.

"Great facility, good location"

"nice hotel"
pat128502018, 11 Août 2018

Nice accomadations, house keeping where really helpful. We didn't get checking when we where suppose to and the front desk didn't care. They where the only draw back to our stay. You get a full breakfast, could have been laid out better and didn't go with the high price of the room. t

Owner Response, 11 Août 2018

We apologize for the delay in check-in. There was a communication error between our Front Desk and housekeeping and the wrong room number was given for cleaning next which delayed your room.

"Everything was Awesome"
family_17, 11 Août 2018

We stayed one night after we attended the Eric Church concert in Merritt and absolutely loved this hotel. It exceeded my expectations!!! Check in was easy. The room was clean and large with a great bed. The air conditioning worked well, as did the black out blinds. The complimentary breakfast was incredible - the usual cold food but also hot eggs and meat. Even a fancy latte maker. We were impressed with everything, especially given the reasonable price that we paid. We will be back next year for sure!!!

"One night stop"
sofcal, 10 Août 2018

Comfortable clean and quiet hotel for a one night stop on a road trip. kids enjoyed the swimming pool. Breakfast was good with a number of choices. We booked the rooms on a good rate. Better to book early in Kamloops to get good rates. Best Western is one of the best hotels in the area.

Owner Response, 10 Août 2018

Thank you for the review and comments. Many families find our location and facilities ideal for their one night stop in the summer. And yes, we think we are the best hotel in the area too!!

"“Loved the room”"
suncone, 06 Août 2018

Very nice large room. The bathroom is located at the far end of the room. It was a nice sized bathroom. The beds were really comfortable and lots of pillows. The breakfast was great the next morning. Lots to choose from. I was mainly impressed with the size of our room. Great view of the mountains from our room. Would definitely stay at this hotel when back in Kamloops. It is such a pretty area. Lots to do around the hotel as well. It is a little expensive but we joined Best Western rewards for future travels.

Owner Response, 06 Août 2018

Thank you for your comments. Many guests love our room size and layout and yes, Best Western Rewards, is the way to go for great rates (discounted) and you earn points and free nights!

"Very Nice Hotel - good pet-friendly room"
Edmonton017, 31 Juillet 2018

My wife and I stayed overnight on a Sunday night when we were travelling from Edmonton to Vancouver. Our pet-friendly room was on the main floor and near the front entrance, making it handy to take our dog in and out of the hotel. The room had laminate floors, so there were no unusual smells or stains, etc. from animals. The room was in excellent condition overall with an updated washroom and other amenities. The air-conditioning worked very well (thank goodness - it was 39C outside!). The beds were firm and comfortable. Front desk staff were very helpful. There is no restaurant at the hotel, so we had food delivered for supper and this worked out well. The complimentary breakfast is self-serve, but bacon and omelettes were available in the morning. There were numerous breads, pastries and juices available, as well as fruit salad. You could make your own pancakes in a one-minute pancake machine. Overall, the breakfast far exceeded our expectations. I believe the breakfast is available at 6:30 a.m. on weekdays and 7:00 a.m. on weekends. The hotel was conveniently located near the highway to Vancouver. I would definitely stay here again.

Owner Response, 31 Juillet 2018

Thank you for your review! Like many of our other pet friendly guests, you have enjoyed our renovated rooms with laminate floors, very popular with both our furry friends and our bike friendly guests.

"Consistent Quality"
skierCalgary, 30 Juillet 2018

We have stayed here before, the last time we drove to Vancouver. Nothing has changed, from the friendly greeting at the check in to the size and cleanliness of the room to the ample filling breakfast. We had a ferry to catch in Twassen so we needed an early departure. Breakfast starts at 0630 and the lady working the morning shift let us in at 0620. Now that is customer service. It is refreshing to see a business maintain its quality. Would I stay here again? Yes Would I recommend it to others? Yes

Owner Response, 30 Juillet 2018

Thank you for your comments. We strive to provide superior customer care and it is great to see my staff are taking their empowerment to provide that.

From the moment I booked 15 rooms for our soccer team and their families things went smoothly. The staff are amazing. They looked after our every need and were always friendly and helpful. The rooms were clean and beds were super. The hotel also accommodated our team bbq. The breakfasts were good too. I would highly recommend this hotel for teams and families. I especially loved that many large restaurants and grocery stores are within walking distance. No need for reservations for our crew.

Owner Response, 12 Juillet 2018

deepcovebrammers, 11 Juillet 2018

This is one of the families from the soccer tournament that stayed with you guys from July 4 to the eighth 2018. We had an absolutely wonderful stay at this hotel and would highly recommend it to any other sport teams that will be doing tournaments in Kamloops. The staff, especially the front desk area went above and beyond to make our stay a very relaxing one. They were all courteous, polite and went above and beyond to accommodate any and all of our needs. The hotel itself is very well-kept with clean rooms and hallways, and had everything that we needed in the room. The breakfast was very good and we appreciated it every morning. We, as a family will definitely use this hotel again and we will definitely recommend it to anyone travelling through Kamloops. Thank you so much for your hospitality.

Spent a night here enroute from Vancouver to Jasper. Very comfortable, quiet property. Lots of free parking, convenient location - Great free breakfast with lots of options. Nice pool with a little lazy river that the kids loved with a comfortable hot tub that the parents loved. WiFi was fast.

"5 star service"
krisalta, 08 Juillet 2018

We just spent 4 nights here with 14 other families for a soccer tournament. The hotel is in a great location, the rooms are very clean, the indoor pool is nice and the breakfast that is included is very good. What impressed us the most is the service! All the staff went above and beyond in making the stay of our very large group the very best it could be. They even facilitated us watching the World Cup as a group in the mornings! We saw that Kamloops is the tournament capital of Canada...if your team is looking for a great hotel I think you'd be happy here. Thank you Best Western Plus - we'll come back!

Owner Response, 08 Juillet 2018

Thank you for your comments. We enjoy the many sports teams that stay with us, from soccer, basketball, swimming, gymnastics to name a few. With our walking distance to TRU and the Tournament Capital Center, many teams enjoy our location and services. Our Standard Plus rooms (two queen beds with sofa bed) are very popular for both teams and families. Almost half our standard rooms are this style. We look forward to your team visiting us again!

"Immaculate"

From the first moment we were greeted by Remi & his Manager, we were made to feel very comfortable. Excellent room with very comfy king size bed. Large room with lovely bathroom. Rain shower head in bath, very gentle ideal for older folks or children. Breathtaking views both night & day of panorama Kamloops. Really good location with gas station next door & many restaurants within easy reach. Excellent breakfast room with superb choices. Food stations are well laid out to avoid conjestion. Gluten free choices available. Staff are helpful with directions around tow. Strongly recommend this hotel.

"Good choice to stay"
Urbane_Canada, 07 Juin 2018

The front desk staff were friendly and helpful so check-in and check-out were easy. We had a King suite on the fourth floor and the view was terrific and the location of the hotel is convenient. It's not far from downtown and not too far away you'll find Aberdeen Mall and the smaller Sahali Mall even closer. Any deficiencies were minor (e.g. the floor heat in the bathroom didn't work but floor heat isn't exactly a deal-breaker!). Breakfast was as advertised and we were pleased with our stay. Yes, we would happily stay at the Best Western Plus Kamloops Hotel next time we're in town.

Owner Response, 07 Juin 2018

Thank you for your comments. We are pleased you , like many of our guests, found our location ideal for a stay in Kamloops. We are sorry about the floor heat which we have now fixed. We look forward to your return.

"Very good place to stay in Kamloops"
Ed H, 03 Juin 2018

We are in Kamloops reasonably often for swim meets or soccer, and have stayed at this hotel before; I think we reviewed it a couple of years back. My wife was just there again this weekend and was again very happy with it. The hotel is really well situated for going to the aquatic centre, and is clean, quiet and well run, with lots of parking, comfortable beds, a good included breakfast, a nice pool, and good internet. Pretty much, what else could you ask for?

Owner Response, 03 Juin 2018

Wow, thank you for the kind words and we are always pleased to hear our facilities and services are fitting the needs of our guests. We do alot of guests for the Tournament Capital Center like yourself. Both swim, gymnastics and more! Easy walk to both the Center and TRU.

"overpriced, bad smell, lacking anything"
Kelly N, 23 Mai 2018

$260 for the night, bad smell in the room, lacking anything worth $260 a night. We realize it's wheelchair accessible but that is a ridiculous reason for that kind of rate. 8am a cleaning team thumping and vacuuming on the other side of the wall by our heads. Beetle crawling around in the bathroom. Top bedding did not look washed!

Owner Response, 23 Mai 2018

This was a one bedroom suite that is also accessible that was on the long weekend in May. Kamloops does get June bugs this time of year. We noted the screen was not correctly covering the window which is not fixed.

Sheree J, 21 Mai 2018

Traveling on business and could hear foot steps pacing upstairs both visits. Not enjoyable, will be looking for another hotel for my next Kamloops trip. Other than that appeared to be a nice hotel but the stomping seems to get louder.

"Large room, very loud"
SLKay, 06 Mai 2018

This hotel overall was fine. The room was spacious, offered sufficient parking, and provided hot breakfast. My issue was that both nights I had to call down to the front desk regarding excessive noise, after what I would consider quiet hours (11pm). While the hotel staff did address the noise which I appreciate, and I understand it was not their fault, it did make my stay not enjoyable. I was here for busy days of work and needed sufficient rest. I would not say this hotel is bad, it just happened to not be a great stay. The beds were comfortable, the bathroom was a good size, room was clean. I was on my own, however I think as a double occupancy, the beds were on the small size. My coworkers who were on the floor below me had told me they could also hear the noise from my floor.

Owner Response, 06 Mai 2018

Thank you for your review. We are sorry you had a problem with a noisy guest during your stay. That is not the norm at the hotel and yes, our staff tried to keep that room quiet as possible during the weekend as we had a few guests complain. A threat of eviction did finally keep the peace.

"Super helpful front desk staff"
Kathy M, 04 Mai 2018

A big shout out to Michelle and Becky, front desk staff who went out of their way to help us. We were driving through Kamloops with our bicycles on a rack. We called ahead and spoke to Michelle about the safety of leaving our bikes on the car rack overnight in the Hotel parking lot. When we arrived at the BW, Michelle had left a note for the night staff. Becky had us pull our car into a spot near the driveway where the bikes could be viewed from the front desk. Michelle had booked us a room that looked out over the driveway so that we could check the bikes if needed. We are so appreciate of the assistance given, and will definitely be back. Nice job, Michelle and Becky!

Owner Response, 04 Mai 2018

Thank you for your review. Michelle and Becky are great ambassadors for our property and Brand. We are glad they assisted you during your stay. Thefts from vehicles are a constant problem in any city and anything we can do to assist in the deterrent.

"Great place to stay for business"
CCHVic, 13 Avril 2018

Friendly check-in staff - very quick efficient but willing to take the time for restaurant recommendations and directions. They told me a bout a great farmers market downtown when I stayed last year and then phoned around to find out if it was on during my stay. Clean and VERY spacious rooms. Nice hot breakfast in the morning. Easily accessible business centre. Good place to stay for business.

Owner Response, 13 Avril 2018

Thank you for your review! It is great to hear our customer care staff service was great during your stay. Many business guests find our staff and location ideal for their needs in Kamloops.

"Not a BW plus"
154914Charlie, 09 Avril 2018

Older rooms, pool and health club retro. Would not stay here again. Staff not very engaged. Breakfast offering very poor. The BWP in Revelstoke was excellent, you would think all BWP would have same standards. Rooms very noisy.

Owner Response, 09 Avril 2018

Thank you for your review. We are sorry that you did not find our facilities up to your standards. We strive to provide a superior product for all our guests and pride ourselves in maintaining a superior property. The BWP Revelstoke is a great partner in Best Western who, while newer, is also a property who prides itself in maintaining a great product. We take all surveys as a way to measure how our customers see our service and product. We will take this survey and strive to improve for our future guests.

"Spring Break Golf Trip"
aprilbrown013, 07 Avril 2018

Excellent hotel. We had two small dogs with us and were given a nice size room which fit our large kennel and had plenty of space for us to move around. The internet worked great. The room was clean and the staff was friendly. We ended us with a golf rate so if you're thinking about golfing phone and ask for the golf rate, you won't find it on the internet.

Owner Response, 07 Avril 2018

Thank you for your review. i am glad you enjoyed our pet friendly rooms that we have on our ground floor. We just installed a new Fiber network for TV and Internet which is state of the art. Yes, Golf rate is only available by direct call!

R9038OXmattm, 05 Février 2018

This hotel resides on the hill in Kamloops that is located in the middle of some good restraunts near by. Stayed here quite a bit and have never had a problem. I recommend the spacious suite rooms....

"Falls a bit Short"
MissyGryphon, 03 Janvier 2018

I use the Best Western chain often as I usually receive consistent customer service and satisfaction. My 1 night stay at this BW was okay but did not quite meet my expectations. The check-in took some time as the person was on the phone and failed to make eye contact with me or acknowledge my presence while they dealt with a phone reservation. I waited patiently. No acknowledgement of my BW status upon check in. I thought the room set up was odd as was a 1 bedroom suite but the living room area was between the bedroom and the bathroom. The floor was carpeted but felt as if you were walking on cement - very hard. One of the pleasures of staying in a hotel for me is to enjoy a coffee in bed watching the news before I start my day. The single cup coffee maker in the room was horrible to figure out and made a total mess with leaking water all over the place. I mentioned it to the front desk as I was checking out and they acknowledged that yes, they are difficult to operate. My stay was in November (winter) and there was only a thin blanket with the sheet on the bed. For a BW Plus I expected at least a duvet especially in the winter time. The breakfast was fine. The room was very clean. Everything else functioned in the room except for the coffee maker.

Owner Response, 03 Janvier 2018

Thank you for your comments. On behalf of the Team here, we apologize that your stay was not up to our standards or Best Western standard. We will take your comments and strive to improve our performance for all future guests so they will not get a experience like this.

"staying on points"
brendenh2018, 01 Janvier 2018

Great experience overall. We booked our stay through points during a promotional offer, which allowed us to stay for free. Hotel met all our expectations, and was very clean and appealling. The breakfast was filling, and there were many options.

bullpasture5555, 31 Décembre 2017

our stay was great. We had a larger room that slept 4. All of the staff was very friendly and helpful. we really enjoyed the breakfast and 3 of us used the fitness room. It was a busy time for the staff as it snowed 6 inches outside and there were a lot of travellers with confused schedules

Owner Response, 31 Décembre 2017

Thank you for your review. The winter always makes a hectic schedule of new arrivals or cancellations due to weather. After 7 winters, our staff are use to the short changes that happen at this time of year.

"Room hiccups"
235paulq, 30 Décembre 2017

1. noisy neighbors - just families ignorant of hotel etiquette (i.e. default to being quiet; people often stay to rest from a long journey, right?) 2. dead TV remote - replaced twice and still not fully functional 3. water soaked carpet outside bathroom; not easy to miss if you walk around in socks I guess. However, not caught by cleaning staff.

Owner Response, 30 Décembre 2017

We do apologize for the problems during your stay. Our staff do try to keep up on the batteries with our remotes. We have scheduled a complete remote change for spring 2018 as they are now 3 years old. Wet carpet should of been caught by the staff member who cleaned your room. we will discuss with the team for future guests not to experience. we do apologize.

"A Decent Hotel Run By Staff Who Obviously Care"
SpadeLives, 27 Décembre 2017

The hotel is well situated in a commercial district just up the hill from downtown kamloops. It is spacious with ample free parking, wifi, and breakfast included which makes for an excellent deal. The property isn't that remarkable from the outside but the rooms are surprisingly well appointed. The thing that jumped out to me was the impeccable placement of everything in the room to the point that looked like a movie set. It wasn't that the room as lavishly furnished but every pillow, towel, and glass was precisely positioned with care. Kudos to the housekeeping staff. The maintenance staff should also be commended as I didn't notice a single thing that needed fixing or replacement. I ended up coming back for a second night.

Owner Response, 27 Décembre 2017

Thank you for your comments. Our Team does take pride in providing a superior product in Kamloops for our guests. It is comments like this that tells us we are doing the right things!

"Great little staycation!"
kentw893, 21 Décembre 2017

Decided to overnight for a staycation after shovelling snow all day at home. Rebecca at the front desk was very friendly and full of information. Even gave some helpful hints about hot tub use. Our room was spacious, extremely clean and fairly quiet even though our room faced a very busy street. Had to unplug the fridge because of the noise (that all refrigerators make). Surprised to see the towels had frayed edges in a hotel of this rating. The continental breakfast was actually a hot one, complete with REAL sausages that were very tasty (not like the patties that are served elsewhere). There was a choice of egg platties (sunny side up) and hard boiled ones. And a great selection of carbohydrates! Good value; will recommend this hotel. Way to go, Tim Rodgers!

Owner Response, 21 Décembre 2017

Thank you for the 5! Glad you enjoyed your "stayation" with us and our facilities. Have asked my housekeeper to review our towels as we constantly replace our inventory so am surprised a frayed one was still there.

"A Great Stay"
ladytraveller569, 20 Décembre 2017

"Too much Travel"
Mike O, 18 Décembre 2017

Like the location of the Best Western in Kamloops. It was close to shopping and good restaurants. Breakfast buffet was always hot and they changed the items every morning so it was not the same for 6 mornings in a row. The breakfast staff kept the area clear and clean. I would stay again

Owner Response, 18 Décembre 2017

"JH Business travel"
John H, 16 Décembre 2017

Nice facilities, decent breakfast, comfortable bed, quiet room. Very helpful staff. Very easy access from the road which is important for me as I usually have a trailer with me. One irritant is that there is no GOOD restaurant in close walking distance, there are a couple (average at best) that you can walk to.

Owner Response, 16 Décembre 2017

Sorry you could not find a suitable restaurant near us. We have many International flavored restaurants within walking distance in Sahali where our Hotel is located. From Japanese, Korean, Americian, Chinese, Jamacian to name a few, besides a few branded (Earls, Mr. Mikes, Brown's Social House and White Spot) and fast food.

Thanks Best Western Plus Kamloops for having Electric Vehicle charging stations. It's very important for the hospitality industry to realize the as electric vehicle range gets better, more and more EVers are traveling farther and farther away from home. We're from Gibsons and travelled 1100 klms in our EV

This looks to be a new hotel that is very clean, nice bright lobby, friendly staff, clean rooms, comfortable beds, nice size breakfast room with lots of options including some hot items. Great value for the price and convenient location to downtown and trans canada hwy. Best Western rewards are the best points system. This would be my first choice if staying in Kamloops again.

"one night stay"
lynnbX8009CO, 21 Novembre 2017

centrally located, close to all amenities but the walk is uphill. Car would need to be used to reach smaller size malls comfortably and the larger mall on the highway. Clean, quiet, nice sized pool and hot tub. Exercise room suited my needs but I am a beginner so can not say whether a more experienced person would require more sophisticated machines. Lobby was welcoming with coffee machine available for guests. Breakfast was very nice. Complete with hot and cold items. I actually enjoyed the sausage patty. I egg "formation" was interesting. There were hard boiled eggs available if the hot ones didn't appeal to you. I would stay there again.

Owner Response, 21 Novembre 2017

Thank you for the 5! We do try to change up our breakfast selection daily so we had egg patty the day of your stay and we also do scrambled egg, fratitta's, bacon scramble to name a few. We also just updated our fitness room with two new pieces of equipment.

BfromKtown, 18 Novembre 2017

This hotel is conveniently located just off the highway in Kamloops. It's a modern facility with lots to offer. The building is relatively new and it's a beauty. Rooms are very comfortable and clean. The really unexpected pleasure is the free morning breakfast that comes with your room booking. It''s done up right, and as a bit more pizzazz than your typical breakfast fare. So come and enjoy the interior of BC and stay at one of the nicest hotels in the area.

Great hotel better than expected. Never used Best Western before but would definitely use the plus range again. Free cookies and hot drinks. Good breakfast but best of all was washing machine paid £1.20 for washing pod and as they are large I had loads in. Went for dinner came back then put in drier. Ah bliss the simple things a mum wants when you holiday with children. We also used the pool which all enjoyed. Would definitely recommend to all

Internet is quick and easy to login, and set based on your room. The breakfast area was clean well stocked, with a very good variety of hot and other food items. Juice machine was out of order. Check in and out was fast and efficient, Would stay again if in the area. Was a bit pricey but in an acceptable range,

It's been a few years since we've stayed at this hotel and in the meantime they've done some nice renovations. Off the main highway and very reasonable in price, this BW Plus has done a great job of adding the little extras that make you feel special. Whether it's the way they've folded the towels or the little extras on the breakfast menu, we will return! A great stop if you are doing the Calgary to Vancouver trip.

Between my job and traveling for holidays I spend more time in motel rooms than the average person and during my twenty some years of short and long term stays Best Western always seems to be the right choice.

Best Western is a class hotel no matter what sized town it might be in whether your in Canada or USA.

Want to have a view without the $50.00 Surcharge? Ask for top floor room 421. You will look South west up to the hilly setting of Thompson River University. Even the Long highway curve upwards is pleasant. Thanks to front desk clerk DAVID for his suggestion. Pleasant stay in a large quiet room. The free breakfast is substantial and seating is varied. You could seat a group of 10 without being too disruptive to others. Loved my visit with the proud grandmother of 12 from Williams Lake.

We were quite fortunate to get a room here, late in the afternoon, as this Hotel seems to be very busy, also, the location for us was good, not to far from TRU. Our room was spacious, very clean, and quiet, the service was excellent. The breakfast time is from around seven to ten AM, with a good variety of food, on paper plates. They do serve a tasty good cup of coffee (which we appreciate) The overall quality of our stay, was very good, although, it was a bit pricy, but I guess that's to be expected these days.

Owner Response, 26 Septembre 2017

Thank you for your review. We have been very busy in Sept. so pricing is on demand which this weekend was. We get many who visit TRU who find our location ideal for visiting TRU or their kids who attend (we do have a Parents rate, please ask!)

"Perfect Place to Stop one Night"
Lisa S, 26 Septembre 2017

Stopped in for the night on a long road trip. Staff were very friendly, room was comfortable and spacious. Price was great and the added complimentary breakfast was fantastic. Would stay here again for sure.

Owner Response, 26 Septembre 2017

Thank you for your review. Many of our guests enjoy our facilities for their stopover in Kamloops.

"Not pleased with the rooms"
979daks, 24 Septembre 2017

The exhaust system (ventilation inside the washroom) is not very effective. The upkeep of the room is not consistent. The hot tub had below average jets. Mixed experience with staff. Some are very friendly and helpful while others are not so friendly or helpful.

Owner Response, 24 Septembre 2017

I am sorry for the service you receive during your stay. We were having problems with the jets on the day of your stay and did get service done to fix. Our exhaust fans are on the roof so they can not be heard from the room. We did check and the unit is working fine. We will take your comments to help us improve our services to our future guests.

"Comfortable bed and quiet room"
RozBOkanagan, 21 Septembre 2017

Clean, comfortable and convenient for touring. Great location to access routes to golfing and other attractions. Walking/running paths close by. There may be better options if you wanted a downtown walkable experience.

"Perfect getaway!!!!"
Alicia M, 20 Septembre 2017

Fantastic stay! Will stay again and reccomend for sure! Friendly staff and cleans atmosphere with amazing breakfast! Elevators a little annoying in the morning but no big deal! Can't wait to stay again!

Owner Response, 20 Septembre 2017

Thank you for the 5! We are glad you enjoyed your stay!

"Good stopover point"
0616MartyB, 20 Septembre 2017

Our 3rd day of a 17 day tour - this hotel was clean and we were happy with the quality of beds. The bathroom and shower were adequate for our needs. Its a little away from external activities, however there is a shopping centre, restaurant and bar nearby. Would have no problem recommending this venue to others.

Owner Response, 20 Septembre 2017

Thank you for your review. We are a central location in Kamloops with many cultural cuisines within walking distance

"Nice place."
S3951CXjohnv, 17 Septembre 2017

Loved the location. Our room was so nice; well decorated and very clean. Beds and pillows were so comfortable. Check in was easy and quick. Front desk was very professional and willing to to ensure our stay was en enjoyable experience.

Owner Response, 17 Septembre 2017

Thank you for the 5! We are always pleased to hear when we have met or exceeded our guests expectations.

"Very nice hotel"
traveller16003, 15 Septembre 2017

Nice clean hotel, large room with beautiful scenic view. Free parking, breakfast and Wi Fi included in nominal room charge. In room fridge and coffee machine . Very nice pool with hot tub. No in room safe a slight draw back. Only 5 minutes to downtown where you Can find all kinds of good restaurants.

Owner Response, 15 Septembre 2017

Thank you for your review. We do have safe boxes available at the Front desk.

"Comfortable clean rooms with good service"
CCHuey, 14 Septembre 2017

Clean spacious rooms with nice views of the mountains and helpful efficient staff. No room service or mini bar which as a business traveller was a disappointment. Located at the top of the hill with good access to chain restaurants and amenities but a car or a taxi to downtown are a must - not walkable.

"Good location, nice pool, big rooms"
WithFamilyWillTravel, 14 Septembre 2017

We had a 2 Queen room on the top (4th Floor). The rooms were big with 2 queen beds and a sofa bed. The bathroom and toiletries were all fine. Beds comfy with lots of pillows. Saltwater pool was pretty big as was hot tub. Clean and refreshing. Breakfast was ok. Pancakes rubbery. Omelettes good as was bacon. Hard boiled eggs available too. Fruit salad had some underripe fruit that had been soaked in syrup - tasted pretty strange. Fresh fruit was cardboard apples and green bananas. Enough food to eat but just ok quality. Coffee was mediocre at breakfast and the free coffee in the lobby at other times was worth about the same as the price paid. There is a Starbucks across the road if you want coffee with substance. Check in was good and the staff were both professional and efficient. 4th floor not a great view on the even numbered side - Columbia street. No road noise with window closed and only some car noise when open (no trucks allowed on Columbia). Odd numbers are better side as a nicer view (IMHO) and no roads.

"Always stay here"
ALLEN K, 14 Septembre 2017

I always stay here when in Kamlops. It is easy to find and a consistent stay. Nice rooms and you get breakfast. It's not the best breakfast in the world but will feed you and have you on your way. Never had a bad night here.

"Wonderful "
Ed M, 13 Septembre 2017

Stopped here on our way through. We got their last room on a busy weekend. The front desk woman was very friendly and knowledgeable. The foyer was very nice and the entire hotel was immaculately clean. Our room was just the right size with very comfortable beds. The shower worked very well and we were never short of hot water. The continental breakfast was superb with many offerings. We walked out of a cheaper hotel to go here but realized a net savings with not needing to purchase breakfast somewhere else. We would definitely stay here again.

Owner Response, 13 Septembre 2017

Thank you for your comment. Yes, many guests see the value of our pricing when including the savings from not having to buy breakfast outside the hotel.

"Best Western Plus Kamloops"
Gregory T, 12 Septembre 2017

Great Hotel, very clean,excellent service, Breakfast was great with a number of food choices to choose from, internet worked great no problems. Bed was very comfortable. The hotel was close to a number of amenities such as restaurants, shopping and local parks for walking around in.

"Modern facility"
G6949LHronaldf, 07 Septembre 2017

Very modern and fresh looking. Very clean and comfortable rooms. Good value for the money. Staff was personable and professional. Good breakfast included in the room charge. This is important in my view.

"Awesome staff and nice hotel"
534clarkh, 05 Septembre 2017

Huge room, great amenities. The breakfast was everything you would expect. The pool and hot tub were great. The hotel is close to a lot of restaurants that are within walking distance. The only downfall was the bed and pillows.

Owner Response, 05 Septembre 2017

Did speak with this guest privately as he found the bed to lumpy. As we have two types of beds in the Hotel, we have suggested he try one of our other beds next visit.

"Excellent Hotel"
tshep42, 03 Septembre 2017

We only stayed here one night but enjoyed our stay. The staff when we checked in we're very helpful and friendly. I had accidentally booked a pet friendly room and they changed it with no difficulty at all. The room was spacious, clean and had everything we needed. Nice view of the mountains as well. The hotel had a self-serve laundry which was great because we needed some clothes washed. They also had a great indoor pool and hot tub. Parking was plentiful and right in front of the hotel. I don't know much about Kamloops but the hotel was right off a Main Street within a short drive to lots of restaurant choices.

Owner Response, 03 Septembre 2017

Thank you for the 5 out of 5! Many guests find our location ideal for their visit to Kamloops and yes, there is so much more, next time stay a extra night and explore!

"Pleasant 2 night stay"
Carolyn H, 02 Septembre 2017

The Best Western plus was a great place to stay with a family. The rooms looked new and were clean. There was a pool, though we did not use it. The room had a hide-a-bed which is great as we have 3 kids. The staff were friendly. The breakfast was great and was kept well stocked by the staff.

Owner Response, 02 Septembre 2017

Thank you for your review. Many of our regular standard rooms do have a hide-bed designed for the family in mind. kids to not have to sleep together!!

"Fantastic place for work and family vacation"

Stayed at Best Western Plus in Kamloops for work purposes, brought my family. Hot breakfast was fantastic, quick and included large variety of items. Pool and hot tub were well enjoyed as well by our family.

We have stayed in this hotel a few times. Each time we have not been disappointed, the quality of the hotel is very high and the staff are friendly. We highly recommend this hotel. We will certainly stay there again on our way to Vancouver Island.

Dale B, 28 Août 2017

very nice and presentable hotel always stay at best western. even with it being in the town once you enter the outside is quieted and you become relaxed. the pool was a little cool which resulted in 2 of my grandchildren from swimming.

Owner Response, 28 Août 2017

"Kamloops Hotel"
Keith H, 26 Août 2017

On arrival we were met by Rebecca and Brad at the Front Desk. THEY KNOW HOSPITALITY! They had all the answers to our questions, either on the spot or did research. There were no newspapers out front but Rebecca magically produced one. Brad recommended a place for dinner which was very good and which we went to both nights that we stayed at this hotel. Incidentally, this survey should cover both of our stays at this hotel: (1) the night of September 17, 2017 and (2) the night of September 24, 2017. In the breakfast area, we were well looked after by Manjot who went out of her way to help. Every hotel should have a Manjot!

Owner Response, 26 Août 2017

Wow, thank you for the great review!

"Highly Recommended"
Rosahlee D, 22 Août 2017

Our family of 4 stayed for a night only just to break the long hours of drive from Vancouver to Calgary. We absolutely enjoyed our stay! Kids love the pool - very clean and well maintained. Room assigned to us was very spacious - king suite. Clean & very organized. Esther was kind & very professional. She helped us with some supplies & was very accommodaring. Both room & receiving area had big flat TV screens. Breakfast was good. I just wished they had at least 2 meat selections...we only had bacon that day & my daughter doesn't eat bacon. Outdoor parking is spacious. Love the scenic view of the mountain when at the parking area. Location is also near the Thompson river university & other commercial areas. Overall, we're all happy and this hotel is highly recommended!

Owner Response, 22 Août 2017

Thank you for the 5 and the great review. Many families enjoy our facilities and location for their stay in Kamloops and yes, the kids love our pool!

"Great hotel"

Stayed at this hotel for a swim meet. Breakfast was not suppose to be served til 6:30 am but they opened it at 6 am to accommodate the swimming families. The hotel was very clean and the rooms were spacious. Enough space for a family of 4.

Owner Response, 21 Août 2017

Thank you for your comments. We do many swim meets and will always arrange for early breakfast during the event days.

"Road Trip!"
travelingnana2016, 20 Août 2017

Our stay at the Best Western Plus, Kamloops, was pleasant and just what we needed as we progressed on our 3 1/2 week road trip!! The accommodations were pleasant, as was the staff. We arrived tired and left refreshed and ready for our day!

Thank you for your review. we are glad we could provide the rest you needed to finish your journey!

"We Will Be Back"
P M, 20 Août 2017

It was a very busy weekend in Kamloops and we were having trouble finding a vacancy. The nice gentlemen at the frontdesk said they had only one room left but it was a pet friendly room. We have no pets but took the room. It had hardwood floors (which I prefer) and it was a large room with two queens. Beds were really comfortable. After swimming in the pool and hot tub which were salt water, I slept like a baby. The breakfast was included and well done. Had hot omelettes and a machine to make fresh pancakes. One of the better breakfasts we have encountered at a hotel. Very clean hotel. Enjoyed our stay very much! This will be our go to hotel from now on when passing thru Kamloops. Just need to reserve ahead.

Owner Response, 20 Août 2017

We are glad we were able to find you a room. During the busy summer months, making a reservation is a very wise idea! We have so many activities and families coming through that our occupancy is always very busy.

"A nice and friendly hotel"
Christian B, 19 Août 2017

We just spent a night on our way to the Fraser canyon. It was a relaxing experience, amid a grandiose landscape more akin to New Mexico than BC (ie very dry). The room was comfortable, with a balcony overlooking the river. The staff was super friendly. We took somer free coffee in the lobby to have a quick breakfast on the balcony.

Owner Response, 19 Août 2017

Thank you and we are glad you enjoyed your visit to Kamloops!

"Nice accommodation "

I am never disappointed with Best Western. Nice big room, great mattresses with all the amenities included. Like their franchise vanilla in the lounge. Many options in the breakfast buffet. Will definitely recommend to everyone

"A typical hotel"
Dianne H, 12 Août 2017

We were on a road trip and were looking for a place to stay when we found this place. It was located about four lights off the highway so access was good for us. The front desk personnel were not overly friendly or helpful. They did have face masks for their customers use due to the heavy smoke from the wildfires. I appreciated that. The room was clean and well equipped. There was a continental breakfast included in the room price. There were a number of restaurants within walking distance.

Owner Response, 12 Août 2017

I am sorry you did not find my Front Desk staff helpful. We strive to provide great service to all our guests. I hope you will find them more helpful on your next visit.

"Excellent accommodation and experience"
Oladipo F, 11 Août 2017

Returning from Vancouver Island on a summer road trip with my family. Our mid-way stop-over was at the Best Western Plus Hotel, Kamloops BC. My kids loved the fitness facilities (especially the swimming pool and hot-tub) that we had to request for an extended stay. The reception staff members went out of their way to ensure we were accommodated for an extra day. We loved the professionalism of all the staff we came in contact with as well as the breakfast facilities. There are also some really nice restaurants in the corner.

Owner Response, 11 Août 2017

Thank you for your review. We are pleased that our staff were able to provide the services you needed to extend your stay and yes, there are great restaurants near the hotel for families.

"Personal"
Timothy B, 10 Août 2017

We travel with a service animal and were very properly treated with regard to lodging with said animal. Hospitality with regard to local amenities was friendly and freely offered. Unfortunately the forest fires in British Columbia did little to make our travels comfortable with regard to smoke and ash coating everything. Mother Nature not as hospitable as Best Western Plus staff.

"Solid for our Family of 6"
USDinCAN, 09 Août 2017

Brought the family up for a conference and some time away together. BW provided everything we needed. Breakfast was quite enjoyable, depending on the day: eggs, sausages, bacon, typical carbs and a pancake machine. Facilities were clean and well kept. Kids enjoyed the pool and hot tub. Location is great as well. Superstore is just a short walk away along with Walmart being a few minutes drive up the hill. TRU is right around the corner and the view of lower Kamloops makes the location picturesque. No complaints just a memorable and comfortable experience.

Owner Response, 09 Août 2017

Thank you for your review. Many guests who come for conferences love our ideal location as you noted and enjoyed.

"Beautiful room, nice view, good breakfast"
Capnhi9er, 07 Août 2017

When we arrived we found that because of our BW Points status they had upgraded us to one of their best rooms. But it only had one king bed and we needed a good night's sleep so we asked for a room with two beds. The desk clerk accommodated us but apologized that this room was not as luxurious and did not have as good a view. All I can say is if the upgrade was better than what we got, it must have been spectacular indeed. Our “regular” room was huge with two queen beds and a sofa. The bathroom was one of the nicest I have ever seen in any hotel anywhere. There was a fridge to cool a bottle of white wine and the coffee they provided was great in the morning. We were totally comfortable and did get a good night's sleep. There were some commercial buildings below our window but if you just looked beyond them the view was fine. The rate included a full hot breakfast which was up to high BW standards. They even had a machine that made pancakes. Just push the button and a couple minutes later out came two pancakes hot of the griddle. All in all, a very enjoyable stay and we would not hesitate to stay here any time we are in Kamloops.

Owner Response, 07 Août 2017

Thank you for your review. We are glad you enjoyed one of our standard rooms. Some are very large with like you said, has a couch and two queen beds for lots of space. Many guests like our unique home style bathroom which our owners wife designed to meet today's busy travelers tastes.

"Beautiful Hotel"

Thank you for your comments. I am glad we were able to make your stop-over a pleasant one in Kamloops.

"Great sized rooms and parking"
jr3bee, 24 Juillet 2017

We stayed here as a family for 1 night before going to check into our condo on the Shuswap. I was able to get a room with 2 queen beds with pullout couch which is a must for my family of 5 and hard to find at most hotels especially with such short notice. We were also pulling a boat and were concerned about being able to have a place easy enough to get in and out of as well as having enough room to park. This was no problem at all. Staff were very friendly, clean rooms and very quiet. We didn't hear people walking in the halls or doors opening and closing. Will definitely stay here again if overnighting in Kamloops.

Owner Response, 24 Juillet 2017

Thank you for your review. Our standard rooms with pull out sofa is very popular with families of 4 or more as they kids can have their own bed or with smaller kids, can sleep 6 in the room.

"Close to the Highway"

Queencarmen, 18 Juillet 2017

My family and I stayed here during the busy summer. The staff were very friendly and helpful at check in and carefully explained where our dog could go. In formation up front us always the best when it comes to pets. The room itself had great flooring conducive to pets and was easy to keep sanitary. Our room was very clean. The cleaning staff was very friendly with my children and offered more towels if needed.

We had an amazing stay. My whole family loved the salt-water pool with a lazy river built into it, the hot tub was equally amazing, we were impressed with the force of the jets (very nice), and the hot continental breakfast was awesome. We definately will stay at this location again soon :)

Owner Response, 17 Juillet 2017

Wow, thanks for the great review! Lots of families enjoy our unique pool setup. Then they find our pancake machine!

Got in at 2AM. Left at 8AM. Clean, quiet (with the exception of mid life crisis, wanna be tough guy, inconsiderate idiots with junkass Harley's parked outside my window. Running these oil leaking crap buckets at 6AM). TV and internet amazing. Good location.

"Nice Room Good Breakfast"
bludso, 11 Juillet 2017

The Best Western Plus brand of hotels is quickly becoming my favorite hotel chain. They are consistently good with nice amenities, good service, comfortable rooms and an excellent breakfast. I would recommend this hotel to anyone looking for some relaxation. The pool was also very nice and unique.

jenniferkR3861UF, 06 Juillet 2017

Should probably begin by saying I don't like Kamloops AT ALL, but my boys have baseball tournaments there every year. I've stayed in 4 other hotels in Kamloops and Iconsider the BW to be the best of them.

Owner Response, 06 Juillet 2017

Thank you for your comments. I am sorry you do not like our city. We do have much to offer many visitors to enjoy while here. I am also glad you found our hotel the "Best".

"A comfortable stay"
Michael C, 05 Juillet 2017

We drive through Kamloops every summer and always stay at this hotel. The rooms are very spacious and the beds are comfortable. They take pets and they are welcome, not just tolerated. It is a short drive down to the river, and restaurants are all close by. The breakfast is very good. It could have a bit more selection and more variety of fruit, but otherwise it is very tasty and hot - and coffee is very good. If I have one bad thing to say about it, it's the Bates Motel next door.

Owner Response, 05 Juillet 2017

Thank you for your review. We are pleased to hear we are your hotel of choice when staying in Kamloops every year and yes, we do like pets!

"Good Reliable BW"
TomHlavac, 04 Juillet 2017

I stayed here probably 20 years ago for a business meeting. Still the same old reliable Kamloops standby, up the hill from downtown so quieter and safer. Rooms are large, clean, nicely renovated. Ours, on the 4th floor, had a decent sized TV. Bathroom roomy too.

Owner Response, 04 Juillet 2017

Thank you for your comments. The family who owns this new property, also owned and operated the property you would of stayed at 20 years ago. They have just gotten better at it!

"Another couple of days in Kamloops, BC"
Robert O, 04 Juillet 2017

Had another couple of nights at a Best Western property in Kamloops, BC. My stay was fine. The property is neat and tidy. The location is close to restaurants, other shopping opportunities and the Tournament Center that has a great gym and swimming pool for a real good work-out after a long day away from home.

A lovely hotel. Only a couple of years old. Lobby, breakfast area efficient and modern. Front desk was very helpful. Rooms are suites. Couch, king bed. Well equipped washroom, marble and tile. Small appliances. Good internet. I really liked the decorating. Impressive and clean. I will stay here again.

"Stop Over"
RetiredXray, 19 Juin 2017

This hotel is nice and in a good location for views of the area. The check in process could have been better as many people arrived around 6 pm with only 1 front desk person to deal with every one. The room was clean and all amenities were in working order. The fitness centre was adequate but could have used some barbells. The breakfast room was kept clean & tidy though a recycle box for bottles would have been helpful. I would recommend this hotel to stay at.

Owner Response, 19 Juin 2017

Thank you for your comments. We did have a staff member call in sick and was not able to replace her. We do have a recycling program in all our guest rooms for bottles, etc. but thank you for the idea of in the breakfast room.

Thank you for your review. It is great to see that our new hardwood floors are making the difference to many guests in our pet friendly rooms! They are also designed for Bike Friendly guests!

"Kamloops city center hotel"
Davearmitage2014, 24 Mai 2017

The best western in Kamloops, B.C. Is well situated and easy drive to restaurants and city Center. The hotel is fairly new and has most mosdern features. Our room 111 had two twin beds which I find rather small. The bathroom was very clean as was the rest of the room. I found the price of $$179/night rather steep but it was a long weekend. A continental breakfast was included and was quite dood.

Owner Response, 24 Mai 2017

Thank you for your comments. All our standard rooms have two Queen beds, but with our higher ceiling, it does make the beds look smaller.

"Very nice place"
Brenda Y, 23 Mai 2017

Stay was great. Hotel Clean and modern. Room large and comfortable. Breakfast fresh and hot. Free coffee was a nice touch. Lobby area was clean and open. Cleaning staff were friendly and offered help. Pool and hot tub were just the right temperature and fully operational. Fitness are was good.

"General Comments"
davidsX1178JM, 20 Mai 2017

Good average hotel of the "older" type. Very good breakfasts both hot and cold items. The hotel is situated in a great spot "uptown". Its a bit old and showing it. The bathrooms still have shower curtains.

Owner Response, 20 Mai 2017

I have private messaged reviewer as I am not sure what his comment regarding shower curtains means. This maybe a review for a different hotel as we are only 6 years old.

"Excellent hotel and a reasonable price."
Keith G, 20 Mai 2017

Lovely rooms, nice décor. Quiet, no noise. Lots of parking, and close to all main routes through the city of Kamloops. The only slight concern I had was the reception staff, although very efficient, had zero personality. No one looks up when you pass through the lobby and say 'hi' or smiles. This needs working on.

Owner Response, 20 Mai 2017

Thank you for your comments. We are always looking at improving our customer service and will take these comments as a way of our guests telling us where to improve.

"Great Staff and accommodations"
Susan C, 18 Mai 2017

The hotel accommodations were excellent and the staff extremely helpful. It's located close to both in town activities and access to surrounding attractions. The helpfulness and knowledge of the staff made this both a very pleasant experience and added value to the overall experience.

Owner Response, 18 Mai 2017

Thank you for your comment. Our staff pride themselves in providing superior customer care and it is great to see they fulfilled that promise.

Excellent service. Very curtious. Very clean and not loud like some other hotels we've been. Would be happy to come back. Thank you much. I'll definitely return for a relaxing stay again. Gotta try the pool too if is one. lol.

Owner Response, 17 Mai 2017

Thank you for your review and yes, you should bring your bathing suit and use the pool next visit. The saltwater is excellent!!

"One night stay"
fahallett, 16 Mai 2017

Room was spacious and clean. Staff was friendly and helpful. Coffee maker in the room failed causing hot water to cascade onto floor. Included continental breakfast was minimal and the room was dark and less than inviting. Suggested Indian food restaurant was just OK but has a great view. Prices about average.

Owner Response, 16 Mai 2017

We are sorry about the problem with your coffee unit. We have changed that one out so the next guest does not have the same problem.

"Newer looking hotel, free breakfast, overall good"
UnwantedUserName, 15 Mai 2017

I stayed here for five nights for work in May 2017. My office booked the accommodations so I don't know about pricing and whether or not it was a good value for the dollars spent. It was a clean and newer looking building. My room had a good sized bathroom. The furniture all seemed to be new as well. The staff were pleasant and nice to deal with. I enjoyed the breakfast although some of my colleagues were less than enthusiastic about the quality of the scrambled eggs. They have sausage, bacon, pancakes, muffins, toast and bagels as well. They also have yogurt and some fruit. The downsides was the waste generated by breakfast buffet. They depended heavily on disposable plates, utensils, and cups. That's something they could easily improve their "green key" rating - if they used reusable plates and cups at least. Also, the exercise room had about six machines. These were not as in good condition as the rest of the building and the ventilation system didn't seem to be very effective. Even though I was the only one in there working out the room always felt stuffy and humid. Maybe it's proximity to the pool caused that but I can see why so feel people want to exercise in there. The pool is small, pretty good for young kids I suppose. I didn't try the hot tub or the pool. Some of my colleagues complained about the noise level coming through the walls. I heard a few night owls coming back to the hotel on several nights. But I did not find this level of noise to be uncommonly loud. All in all a good place to sleep and have breakfast. When travelling for work that's all I could ask for.

Owner Response, 15 Mai 2017

Thank you for your comments. Our plates and cutlery are produced using renewable resources and are biodegradable and compostable. As Kamloops does not have a commercial recycling program, this is the best option available to us. To wash plates and cutlery would require us to use harsh chemicals that could get back into the water system. We do have a private company who picks up our larger recycling (Paper,glass and large plastics). We are constantly reviewing and revising our Green Program. We just went to biodegradable coffee pods in all guest rooms as the company that use to recycle our pods closed.

"Great Stay."
pauladressler, 13 Mai 2017

"When they say Plus, they mean plus!"
BenLar137, 04 Mai 2017

I really like the luxurious touches that this Best Western Plus provides their guests. Real glass glasses and ceramic mugs, a beautiful pool, extra comfortable bed, make-up mirror, and lovely amenities etc etc. Friendly staff, too. Also, a big plus is their location... not right on the highway but close, not right in downtown, but close. The breakfast area fit in with the entire tone of the hotel. This would now be my go-to hotel in Kamloops!

Owner Response, 04 Mai 2017

Thank you for your comments. We provide all these extras along with our guests knowing they are staying at the "Green Hotel" in Kamloops!

"One of the nicest Best Western hotels we have stayed at."
Steve E, 30 Avril 2017

Room was very clean and had all the extras that one would need. Staff were helpful and friendly. Full breakfast was excellent with lots of seating. The owner even walked through and chatted with guests. We stayed a couple of nights and will definitely return and highly recommend this hotel. Also this hotel is very quiet the way it was built. Thanks for a nice stay. Steve and Dianne Erickson.

"Keeps me coming back in Kamloops BC"
Dar F, 26 Avril 2017

The Best Western Plus in Kamloops BC is a very convenient location for this business traveler. Well situated , with clean excellent rooms, comfortable bed, and a very decent breakfast. It is my first choice when in the Kamloops area on business. Close to Thompson River University Campus and central enough to provide a hassle free commute to anywhere else in the city.

Owner Response, 26 Avril 2017

Thank you for your review. We are glad you find our hotel as convieniant as many of our guests do in Kamloops for their business or leisure needs.

"All the Comforts of Home"
Majarhumanservices, 12 Avril 2017

I have stayed in this property before, and while I have always enjoyed it, when not subject to business rates, I have found it over-priced. That seems to be the trend for Best Western these days. Room clean and comfortable and services good.

Owner Response, 12 Avril 2017

Thank you for your review. Our pricing structure is based on price and demand of the marketplace. We do provide many opportunities for savings on price with book direct, BW Rewards and AAA discounts.

"Terrible customer service."
mariegW7330YC, 09 Avril 2017

Very disappointed with the staff. At check out I alerted the front desk that the fridge motor sounded like it was on its last legs as it and hummed very loudly every 10 minutes for 2 minutes. The response I received was "95% of the time it's just the shelf rattling". It definitely was not a shelf rattling, but whatever it was, it needed to be fixed and staff should of apologized for the noise and told me they would look into. It is stated that breakfast is until 10am. I arrived at 9:30, by 9:52 they shut of the juice machine, removed all the coffee and food. I felt completely rushed and didn't understand why they closed even before 10am when there was still a room full of guests that all had arrived prior to 10am. I thought it was incredibly rude of the staff to clean up while guests will still enjoying their breakfast when we still had 8 minutes to eat.

Owner Response, 09 Avril 2017

I have responded to reviewer in a private message to address her concerns. We do check our fridges every quarter but a few do get loose sometimes. As to the breakfast time, we have spoken to the attendant to be a little more patient before starting to pull the food for closing.

"Best Sleep"
mrsnourse, 09 Avril 2017

We were so pleased to spend a quiet night at Kamloops Best Western. It is one of the few times that we did not have to turn on white noise to block out noise. The beds were very comfortable as were the pillows. Breakfast in the morning offered a good variety for the health concious and those wanting the traditional eggs etc. All in all a great stay

Owner Response, 09 Avril 2017

We are glad you were able to have a enjoyable visit in Kamloops.

"Always Welcoming"
dawnzena95, 28 Novembre 2016

We are always pleased with the Best Western Plus in Kamloops, but our most recent stay here was by far the best experience yet. The complimentary breakfast complete with bacon, eggs and pancakes is always a highlight of our stay, and now there is an even wider selection of pastries, cereals, and fruit and a new addition of french toast! Very clean rooms and exceptionally friendly staff (free chocolate at the front desk!). Good location with a view of the hills.

"Excellent Hotel"
Gajen S, 25 Novembre 2016

Really nice hotel with hot breakfast, good internet services along with swimming pool and fitness center. Very handy location with pubs and restaurants in walking distance with the nice view. Downtown Kamloops and the university is close by, rooms are very spacious and clean. Ample parking in the front and rear.

"Great Breakfast"
LorraineWilliamsLake, 22 Novembre 2016

The main reason we stay at the Best Western Brand Hotels is because we like their breakfasts. There is always a variety of foods and condiments offered and their coffee is excellent.. I also stay for the discounts available online. The Best Western Points card and Airmiles are my incentives. I received a really good discount during this stay.

Owner Response, 22 Novembre 2016

We have stayed in this hotel for several years now as we travel between Victoria & Calgary. It is a pet friendly hotel that maintains a high standard of cleanliness. We appreciate having the pool, fitness centre & a decent breakfast. We feel we get good value staying here. Staff have always been friendly, helpful & efficient.....a well run place.

"We Like the Upgrages"
Fred S, 14 Novembre 2016

Except for the new branding colour. The room was clean, comfortable, and mostly quiet. The walls appeared to be soundproofed but the ceiling not so much, as we could hear the people on the floor above. The continental breakfasts at Best Western are always more than just pastries and coffee, and this one did not disappoint.

Owner Response, 14 Novembre 2016

Thank you for your review. Our new logo has so far been mostly favorable with our guests. We feel it does definitely show the difference from Best Western to Best Western Plus!

"Great Place to stay while in Kamloops"
Eagle3775144, 12 Novembre 2016

This Hotel should be a model for all Best Westerns. Starting at check in, everything was ready including our BW welcome bag and a little dogie bag for our Pom. Clean room, excellent breakfast, everything was fresh and the lady taking care of the breakfast items was very pleasant and was there to answer any questions anyone had. She is special. Checkout was a breeze, will definitely be back.

Owner Response, 12 Novembre 2016

Thank you for your kind words. Tana in our breakfast room is a great lady and we are very happy to have her as part of our team!

"New and modern pet-friendly hotel"
AZandBC, 24 Octobre 2016

I had to travel to Kamloops with my parents and dog for one night for a doctor's appointment. I was hoping we could all stay in one room (each adult wanting their own bed) so I called and spoke to the front desk and Rebecca was most helpful and pleasant. She told me she could put us in a pet-friendly, ground floor room with two queen beds plus a pull-out sofa. This perfectly met our needs. The hotel was easy to find just off the highway and close proximity to the MRI and specialist clinic I was going to (the hospital was close as well.) It was just a couple minute drive down the hill. The hotel is new and modern, and the rooms were very nice. Our room was very spacious, especially considering it had two beds and a sitting area with couch. Plus, there were plenty of outlets for charging phones, iPads, etc with three adults. The beds were very comfortable as were the pillows (four pillows to choose from on each bed.) The free WiFi in the room was fast. The non-carpet flooring in the pet room was high-end looking, and the cleanliness was exceptional. Usually my dog spends the first 20 minutes sniffing every inch of a hotel room (which tells me it's not very clean) but in this room he quickly laid down and settled into his bed. I spoke to several of the front desk staff and all were very friendly and helpful. They even accommodated a late check-out request so I could come back to the room after my doctor's appointment. My parents enjoyed the breakfast and found a couple parks within walking distance for the dog. The front desk even provided a doggie goodie bag upon check-in! I always try to stay at Best Westerns and this one exceeded my expectations. I will definitely book again next time I'm in town. Probably the nicest Best Western I've stayed in. Definitely has the most friendly staff!

Owner Response, 24 Octobre 2016

Thank you for your comments. It is always great to hear when we exceed expectations! Our pet friendly program and rooms are definitely above standard and our repeat customers keep telling us we are!

Was in for a few days. Smooth check-in. Lots of parking. Great service from the desk staff. Large pool area and gym. Had stayed here in the past and the breakfast wasn't very good but this seems to have greatly improved. Clean comfortable rooms with nice beds. Central to sahali and Aberdeen areas.

Owner Response, 20 Octobre 2016

Thank you for your review. We have made a concentrated effort to improve our breakfast program within the restraints of our facilities. Our expanded seating was definitely well received this past summer.

I stayed at this hotel on September 9th 2016. This hotel was very clean and the rooms were lovely. The beds were very comfortable. They had a nice pool if you wanted to go swimming. The staff were kind. It was nice to have a hot breakfast before hitting the road again. I would recommend this hotel.

"Reasonable but not the Best Best Western"
NaturesMoments, 09 Octobre 2016

Clean room comfortable bed and OK for a one night stop over. As a Best Western Diamond member you usually get an upgrade or a welcome pack with water. We got a Multigrain bar, two small chocolates and a bag of Bear Paws Minis. Bit of an insult really. I think they would have been better to have not bothered! The breakfast was OK but again I have had much better with a simple selection. It did have a hot selection though. With a more than average price it was disappointing but OK

Owner Response, 09 Octobre 2016

We are sorry that you did not enjoy our welcome gift. We do change it up to provide a variety to our regular BW Elite Reward members. We have seen a very noticeable compliment on our changes on our Breakfast Program with our "Build your own" variety we now have.

"OK for a night"
Lewnatic, 09 Octobre 2016

Slightly out of town - too far to walk to downtown, but with shops and restaurants close by. Pool OK - good size room - breakfast average. AGAIN Best Western with no in-room safe - this is a pain. Basically does the job.

Owner Response, 09 Octobre 2016

We have security safes at the Front Desk which are available 24 hrs for our guests. Our location, while not downtown, is close to many international restaurants, shopping and easy access back to the highway.

"Wonderful hotel"

"To far from downtown to walk...."
Will F, 06 Octobre 2016

Room was very clean, but I do get tired of these hotels that have designated dog rooms, this hotel room was on the back, right on the parking lot...ground level....got in the room, opened up the curtains to a view of a dumpster and garbage cans....asked to be moved , which was done....I would like to know why as a traveller with a dog, we always get the worst rooms, no choice, and we pay more than regular rooms. Always having to pay more for less....I don't get it. Will never return to this hotel. So far from downtown, had to drive to downtown .....breakfast was good enough , we were high on a hill, but because of being a dog traveller, we were given the worst room...no view what so ever . We are rewards members.....but the next night we went to a different hotel...not a best western!

Owner Response, 06 Octobre 2016

With many guests also having allergies to animals, by keeping our pet rooms on the ground floor, other guests can be assured they are in a room that did not have a pet. We have also made most of our pet rooms with new hardwood flooring and we also made a pet friendly suite for upgrades. This also allows the guest easy assess to take their pet outside when needed. We have many guests who say we have the best "Pet Rooms" in Kamloops! We also provide the pet room with no pet fee to our Elite BW Rewards members! which makes them the same price as a standard room.

Joan K, 27 Septembre 2016

Room was comfortable, nicely decorated, and spacious. Breakfast was good. There was one hot entree each morning plus meat. Would have preferred a slightly healthy choice instead of white bread french toast. There were other options available daily. Fitness centre and pool were good. Bed was comfortable but a less firm pillow would be preferable. Very nice stay.

Owner Response, 27 Septembre 2016

Thank you for your comments. We do have two medium and two firm pillows on each bed. this is to allow our guests with different preferences to have them on the bed at arms length. We do have white, whole wheat and brown bread daily in our breakfast program but do run out once and a while for a day until next delivery.

"Very pleased with my stay at this hotel"
Robert H, 26 Septembre 2016

This Best Western hotel is located between downtown business and mall and other business away from downtown but close to at least six restaurants. It is well lit at night and has some l.e.d. lighting design that looks good at night. The rooms are large and well appointed. I especially like the granite on all furniture. The bathroom floors are heated. The exercise area has good equipment and windows to the outside. The breakfast area is large and comfortable with ample televisions to watch the morning news.

Stayed at the hotel as we were passing through. The room was nice and large. The hotel was clean, but you could tell it's a little older. The hotel has nice pool and a good hot breakfast included. We got the 2 beds because the it was cheaper than the one king and we were only staying one night. The room had a small couch with a coffee table and a desk with an office chair.

heatherdenley, 12 Septembre 2016

We were just passing through, but we really enjoyed our stay here. Clean, comfortable, and the included breakfast was really nice. Location wasn't important to us, but it is close to superstore, restaurants, and a cold beer and wine. If we spend anytime in Kamloops again we would stay here.

Owner Response, 12 Septembre 2016

"Bad service and a mediocre hotel"
Spencer S, 12 Septembre 2016

When we arrived at the hotel we checked in and were giving our room keys but when we got to our room there was someone already in there! We went back to the front desk to see why that was and they said I booked the reservation for the next night and this happens a lot due to their system which books it for the day after you request if you're booking it before the cancelation period. They then told me I had to pay a way higher premium because there was a wedding that night when I already paid and was checked in and only took $2 off the room price for the night. I was extremely frustrated and would never stay here again. The rooms were also lack luster and the blankets were extremely thin. I would never stay at a Best Western again.

Owner Response, 12 Septembre 2016

Guest both booked for incorrect day and only for one person not two. The rate reflected the change to two persons and they were provided the rate based on their AAA membership for the new day. Our new staff member did not realize that it was the next day reservation when they came to check in (this happens so rarely!).

"Quality and convenient"
Kim R, 06 Septembre 2016

Checked in to the Best Western Plus in Kamloops with my dogs. A beautiful room with a comfy sofa in the living room and a separate bedroom and additional TV. I arrived at night and through the window could see the twinkling lights of downtown Kamloops in the valley below. Parking was right outside the door. I requested a room appointed for disabilities and found this to be one of the best rooms ever to accommodate my needs. The shower room was fabulous and beautiful and my knees and hips were thankful not to have to step into a bathtub! Cookies for the dogs at check in and heavenly pillows to sleep on - every detail attended to. I will definitely come back to this hotel in the future. The person who helped me at checkout gets a gold star and I am sad I didn't get her name as she gave amazing customer service and I am a tough cookie to please! Since I slept in beyond the hotel breakfast, she recommended a great place for me to grab breakfast and helped me reroute my drive home. Way to go the extra mile for your guests :)

Owner Response, 06 Septembre 2016

Thank you for your review. We have many of our guests with disabilities pleased with our room layout and especially the bathroom we had designed by local people with disabilities assisting us.

"Excellent stay in Kamloops at the Best Western..."
Steve W, 05 Septembre 2016

We stayed for one night in August at the Best Western Plus in Kamloops, and found it to be an excellent hotel. The check-in staff were very good, and, on a day when it was still 34'C at 6.00 in the evening, it was a great touch to find the a/c already on when we arrived. We booked for two queen beds for a bit more room, and our room certainly had plenty of space, with a very good room lay-out. The beds were comfy, and we got a good night's sleep. Breakfast was very good in the morning, to round off what was an excellent stay. The hotel is located on the edge of the town. It was way too hot for us to walk into the town, but it is only a short 5 minutes drive, and Kamloops has ample parking in the evening. A very good hotel, and we would certainly stay there again on future trips to the area.

Owner Response, 05 Septembre 2016

Thank you for your review. We had many guests enjoy our location for their stay in Kamloops and found it like you, very convienant for their stay.

"Rain and Cold"
Paul S, 05 Septembre 2016

We have a pet and have stayed at this hotel before. I like that the pet room is not carpeted and especially this trip since the weather outside was terrible. The location is very easy to get to and there are plenty of options around the Hotel to eat and shop. There is a good Breakfast with lots of options. This time we had some problems with our internet booking and the staff worked hard to make sure that everything was correct and that we had a room for the night.

Owner Response, 05 Septembre 2016

Thank you for your comments. Many of our guests with pets are commenting on our new flooring in our pet rooms.

"Just what we needed"
09stephen1970, 04 Septembre 2016

My wife and grandson needed a room while visiting some family. Quick reservations at BestWestern.com and voila, a perfect room. Very clean with all the amenities. My sister and mother even joined us in the pool that evening. Friendly staff and great location. Will definitely revisit!

Owner Response, 04 Septembre 2016

Thank you for your review. We are glad our facilities and staff were ideal for your visit to family.

"Great location for us!"
Canadian_girrrl, 03 Septembre 2016

Stayed here 1 night when moving our son to TRU, great location for this, really close. Our room was huge, really nice! Desk staff really friendly also. The complimentary breakfast is awesome---bacon,omelettes,pastries,pancakes.....pretty much everything you'd want. I would definitely recommend it! Only complaint is very noisy hallway once breakfast starts (stayed on first floor)

Owner Response, 03 Septembre 2016

Thank you for your comments. Some mornings, the breakfast area can be noisy when we have many families.

"Nice property"
Dennis398, 01 Septembre 2016

Nice property , close to all ammenities. Breakfast was good also . Lots of parking , and rooms were spacious and clean. Close to the hospital which is why we stayed there . The weekend farmers mkt. is close by

Owner Response, 01 Septembre 2016

Thank you for your review. We get many families stay with us for their visits to the hospital and specialists in Kamloops.

"Best Service Ever"
Barbara B, 30 Août 2016

After a great night's sleep in a clean, comfortable room, we discovered that our car had been broken into during the night and our backpacks, with all included gear, had been stolen, We should have heeded the posted signs to not leave anything in our car. Not the fault of the hotel. Yui, at the front desk, provided us with phone numbers for the RCMP, the Toyota dealership, and a glass replacement company. While we were calling, the maintenance man (Sorry I don't remember his name) vacuumed broken glass from our car. Because the replacement window wouldn't arrive until the next morning, Tim, the hotel manager, gave us a reduced rate for the extra night's stay. Everyone was helpful and I highly recommend Best Western Plus in Kamloops BC.

Owner Response, 30 Août 2016

We want to say again how sorry we are that your vehicle was broken into. This kind of event is unfortunately part of our society and we do have signs asking our guests to ensure they remove any valuables to reduce and help the RCMP reduce break-ins at hotels in Kamloops. While we have seen a dramatic reduction over the past few years, it does seem to go in waves sometimes (we had two days of events this summer)

"Relaxing stay"
coolio_976, 28 Août 2016

I just stayed one night and it was peaceful, clean, and relaxing. The staff were really nice and easy to deal with. Just what I needed after a long day of driving. The breakfast is great and has lots of variety. The salt water pool and hot tub was cool too.

Owner Response, 28 Août 2016

Thank you for your review. Many guests are enjoying our salt water pool and hot tub this summer!

"Wonderful experience "
Colin L, 23 Août 2016

I stayed a couple of nights at this property. It feels brand spanking new and very modern. The breakfast was one of the best I've had due to its variety and quality. Bed was very comfortable and extra blanket came in handy. Washroom was very clean but for those that prefer a tub this room had a shower only. I'd stay here again without hesitation and highly recommend it.

Owner Response, 23 Août 2016

Thank you for your comments! We strive to provide both superior customer care and facilities. We are over 6 years old and still get many guests think we are brand new! What a great compliment!

"Great place to stay"
eek90, 23 Août 2016

This hotel is so close to everything. The room was clean and spacious and the beds were so comfortable. The pool and hot tub were fun for the kids and the breakfast had a large variety. We would definitely stay here again.

"Great Hotel and Location"
281bob, 19 Août 2016

We spent one night at this hotel and it was wonderful, quiet , clean and beautiful. The indoor pool and hot tub were great after a long day of driving, and get up to a breakfast included. This hotel is one of the best in my opinion and very reasonable rate. Make your booking here for your next trip to Kamloops.

Owner Response, 19 Août 2016

Thank you for your comments. We are pleased when our guests enjoy our facilities and their stay!

"Torn between a three and a four"
Stephen H, 17 Août 2016

Sandwich method: Pool was good, parking easy, location had everything close While we did showed up early, we were informed by the staff that we only had to wait 15 mins for our room, then 20, then 30 .... Etc, etc, etc. The room was available 2 1/2 hours later.... Staff were really nice, room was good, television had a good selection. Do not know if I will return or not....

Owner Response, 17 Août 2016

Thank you for your comments. We had a very large check-out the day before and then were short staffed due to a sickness. We try to get guests who arrive early as quick as possible and usually have a 1 hour after arrive that we try to get the room ready as the staff member has to finish the room they are in and they get to the early arrival. I am not sure why it took 2 hours to get clean and will check with my staff to ensure this does not happen to future guests.

"Road trip"
Linda M, 17 Août 2016

We stopped in Kamloops on a two-day road trip. It was a great stay and the number of beds was perfect for us. The room was beautiful and clean and I enjoyed the breakfast selection. I will definitely stay here again.

Owner Response, 17 Août 2016

Thank you for your review and we look forward to your next visit.

"Everything in its place"
Vybrus, 15 Août 2016

We got just what we were looking for: A clean, comfortable, modern place to stay for a family wedding. Nothing over the top special, but solid. The hotel is located fairly close to the highway, but there was not noise at all. The staff were pleasant. The beds were comfortable The free breakfast was complete If you're looking for a roadside stop in Kamloops, stay there.

"I hate it when there is nothing to criticize"
skierCalgary, 11 Août 2016

We stayed here for one night on our way from Calgary to Vancouver. Everything, from the check in to the room to the breakfast was ideal. The pool is great. The staff are wonderful (had a great discussion at check out about various teas) I can find fault with one little detail;the plates and cutlery were plastic for breakfast; the food was really good and really plentiful. The Best Western Plus in Revelstoke on our way home from high taxed very expensive Vancouver used real plates and real cutlery so they win the battle. Would I stay here again? Yes, in a minute Would I recommend it to friends? Already have

Owner Response, 11 Août 2016

Thank you for your comments. Our cutlery are not plastic but a reed and potato based product that is biodegradable. It allows us not to use harsh chemicals to clean china and flush down the drain.

"Good hotel, great staff, bad parking security"
Michael V, 11 Août 2016

Hotel was very nice and the family room we stayed in was very nice. My young kids really enjoyed the pool and hot tub. Also breakfast was nice with a good variety of hot food (not just toast). Only downside to the whole experience was three cars were broken into including ours. The staff were very helpful in contacting the policy and helping me clean up but I think this might be an an annual problem. There are signs reminding people to remove their valuables from cars parked in the back lot (because parking out front is limited) and I read in other reviews that people had concerns about this.

Owner Response, 11 Août 2016

Thank you for your review. We have worked with the local RCMP to attempt to reduce break-ins in Kamloops. By putting a reminder to our guests at the entrances and the elevator, we hope that they will not leave items in car that would entice someone to break-in. It has dramatically reduced our break-ins over the past two years. We did get a rash of break-ins that night and understand there was many around the area that night. The RCMP have done more patrols in the area to reduce break-ins in the area and we have not had one since.

"Great place to stay"
Kerby R, 07 Août 2016

Was quiet, decor was pleasant, lobby comfortable, pool warm and great for kids, beds extremely comfortable. Staff was friendly and professional. Sound did not carry through room door/walls/floor/ceiling. Kids enjoyed the stay. The breakfast was marvellous and there was plenty of room in the breakfast area. Will certainly stay here again!

Owner Response, 07 Août 2016

Thank you for your review. We are having a busy summer and it is great to see that our service and facilities are meeting the demands of our guests.

460Lorraine, 05 Août 2016

Nice friendly hotel. Near shops and close to downtown. Helpful service and directions. Clean spacious rooms. Wake-up call on time. Bagged lunch offered for those who check out prior to the restaurant opening with complimentary breakfast. Complimentary parking with stop over. I highly recommend the Best Western Plus, when staying in Kamloops.

Owner Response, 05 Août 2016

"Best place for a TEAM"
M J, 04 Août 2016

Stayed here as part of a soccer team. Clean, big and great breakfast! Kids loved the pool and hot tub. Room was clean and big. Perfect for a family of 4. 2 queen beds plus a pullout. Room for everyone! The breakfast room was large and everyone found something the liked to eat.

Owner Response, 04 Août 2016

Thank you for your review. We find many families like our standard plus rooms which have the two queen beds and a hide-bed.

"Good hotel, a tad pricey, pool very slippery!"
AnakeRose, 03 Août 2016

My husband, son and I decided last minute to book a hotel for 1 night over the BC Day Long Weekend so the choices were slim. We spent the day hiking at Sun Peaks and were thankful to have a hotel room. Hotel itself us pretty nice, check-in was a breeze. Room was a tad pricey though at $193 for the Saturday night. Breakfast was really good, probably the best hotel breakfast I've had in awhile. Our only two complaints were there was a used water bottle still in our fridge from the last guests (room 316) and the bottom of the pool was EXTREMELY slippery. I slipped and fell a few times in the shallow end trying to prevent my son, who is a 2 year old non-swimmer, from going under. Nearly bailed on the stairs going in. I would probably stay here again, but I'll be sure to bring my water shoes next time.

Owner Response, 03 Août 2016

Thank you for your comments. We are sorry that our staff did not clean your room completely, they really do try to be thorough in their cleaning. I will look in to the pool comments as this is the first time we have had this type of comment but the pool was also very well used on the Long Weekend so not sure if just a high volume thing or a problem.

"Good stopover"
coldenough, 30 Juillet 2016

Nice hotel. Modern décor. Easy to access from highway, close to shopping and dining. Indoor pool was well used, hot tub worked good. Room was quiet and clean, bed and bedding was very good. Complimentary breakfast was better than I have had staying in some all inclusives in Mexico. Staff were friendly and put effort to have the breakfast area clean and stocked. Had a good breakfast to start the day of another road trip. This was a good stay and I would return again for a night stay when on route.

Owner Response, 30 Juillet 2016

Thank you for your comments. It is nice when our guests enjoy our facilities completely.

"A nice well run hotel with friendly staff"
Ian S, 27 Juillet 2016

We stayed at this hotel twice during our Canadian visit and found that it was a very good stay. Probably the best Best Western out of the 8 we stayed at. Very comfortable, good location with views and helpful staff.

"Visiting brother in law in hospital"
Diane S, 25 Juillet 2016

My husband and I came to Kamloops on the way home to Spruce Grove, Ab, from Keremeos to visit our brother in law who was in hospital. I phoned Best Western Plus and the lady I talked to was very accommodating with my requests and I told her we had a pet, wanted quite room and that we were visit a family member in hospital and she gave us a hospital price which was great and room was wonderful, we had a free hot breakfast. I would highly recommend Best Western Plus in Kamloops and other cities..... Thanks Diane

Owner Response, 25 Juillet 2016

Thank you for your review. We are pleased you enjoyed your stay during your unfortunate situation. We do provide a special rate for those emergency situations like this.

"Road trip stop ..."
PinkGypsy, 24 Juillet 2016

On our way to Calgary, my partner pulled into the parking lot of this hotel. It was clean, had two queen beds, free wifi, free parking and a basic breakfast was included. They had one room left, so we took it rather then risking going to another hotel (just in case other hotels were also full). Breakfast was fine, check out was fine - nothing amazing, and nothing terrible. On our way back home from Calgary, we stayed here again. If you have one, use your bcca card because you do receive a discount.

Owner Response, 24 Juillet 2016

Thank you for your comments. Many guests find our property perfect for their one night stay between Vancouver and Calgary as you did.

"Comfortable bed, clean room, good breakfast "
Barb J, 24 Juillet 2016

We enjoyed our stay. The bed was nice and firm and we had plenty of pillows. Wifi was quick and there were 2 wall outlets easily accessible above the desk and a lamp with an outlet so charging up our devices wasn't an issue as it can be. Fridge/freezer did a good job keeping our cold packs frozen too. Breakfast had a good assortment. Nice pastries and cheese omelet the morning we were there.

Owner Response, 24 Juillet 2016

Thank you for your review. Many guests comment on the easy access we have for charging their electronics with the outlet both at the desk and at the bed.

"Good Night Stay"
DontStopExploring, 23 Juillet 2016

Hotel and rooms were very clean. Very helpful and friendly staff. The only complaint is the noise level from kids and other guests after 11pm and as early as 6:15am. The buffet breakfast was fantastic and it is very easy to find. Don't know if I would stay here again because of the noise.

Owner Response, 23 Juillet 2016

Thank you for your review. We are sorry you had noise problems late and early. we do get a lot of families but they are usually quite quiet by 10 pm and yes, some do get up early to get back on the road for the next day.

"Awesome Gluten Free options for Breakfast"
Michell S, 18 Juillet 2016

The selection at the breakfast was wonderful, the lovely woman in the Breakfast room was amazing, she offered 4 different Gluten Free options, made restaurant suggestions for Gluten free options. She was friendly, helpful and an absolute delight to interact with. We really enjoyed going for breakfast so that we could chat with her, she was warm, friendly gracious and awesome employee all around. The ladies who were in charge of housekeeping were also exceptionally friendly and helpful too.

Thank you for your comments, Tana has been a great addition to our breakfast program and many guests comment on her service to them.

"Spacious room, good pool."
bcBEZ, 17 Juillet 2016

Stayed here for one night on a business trip. Room was very spacious with 2 queen beds, plus a sitting area with a sofa and table. Everything was clean and new feeling, though the bathroom had a slight mildew smell. Free WiFi per room. The gym was OK - elliptical, treadmill, bike, and universal, but no free weights. The pool was great- saltwater, perfect temperature, and large. Nice hot tub as well. The complimentary breakfast was good, with a fairly large selection that included sausage, pancakes, fruit, yogurt, and breads. Free coffee was available in the lobby at all hours. Would stay again if in the area.

Owner Response, 17 Juillet 2016

"terrible"
hunglow, 16 Juillet 2016

the gentleman that checked me in was very pleasant. he gave me a upgrade to a a room with a king since it was just myself. that is where it started getting terrible. the smelled musty. the little fridge was quite loud and i had to unplug it to sleep. in the morning there were kids that were running up and down the hallway at 8 in the morning. i was slowly getting up but it was still annoying. i left at 9 am and they were still running in the hallway. when i walked out of the room it was a dad pushing kids on a luggage cart. precisely what is wrong with the world today when a parent thinks that is acceptable behaviour. The part that made it even worse was that a housekeeper was on the floor and quite obviously did nothing to stop it. I snapped at the parents and left. once at my vehicle i phoned the front desk and complained about the noise and the inccompentent staff memeber that did nothing. the manager tried to offer something but i was so pissed i just stated i will never stay at his place again.

Owner Response, 16 Juillet 2016

Thank you for your comments. i will speak with our room attendants about ensuring they do let the Front Desk know when noise in the hallways. We do have many families during this time of year. Some do get up early to start their day as they are traveling usually a good distance each day and want to finish before the high heat of the day.

"Reasonable Value for Kamloops"
Simon W, 16 Juillet 2016

Stayed here for a one night stay on the way to Vancouver and booked a suite for us. The rooms were large and the sofa bed already made up. Check in was uneventful, and indeed the guy on reception was very friendly. The rooms were clean but had a very musty smell on walking in the room, almost like damp sweaty hiking socks drying out. To be honest a little unpleasant but having driven for hours we just crashed. It's a Best Western and it does what it says on the tin !

Owner Response, 16 Juillet 2016

Thank you for your comments. We do not use any perfumes to freshen our rooms. I will speak with the room attendants to ensure they naturally air out any room that might have a smell from the previous guest.

"Amazing service "

"Nice Hotel- Good Location."
phil52_10, 14 Juillet 2016

This was a one night stop and having stayed here before got more than we expected. The desk staff were welcoming and helpful, we were given an upgrade to a King Suite, very nice. The room was large and spacious, consisting of a large lounge area, separate bedroom and good sized bathroom. The room was very clean, comfortable and well decorated, with great views of Kamloops and the surrounding area from both the lounge and the bedroom windows. The hot breakfast was very good and the dining room more than adequate and very well kept.The hotel is close to various restaurants and stores and it is easy to get back to the main highway. Even though it is close to a busy road, we heard nothing and enjoyed a good night's sleep.

Owner Response, 14 Juillet 2016

Thank you for your review. We are glad you enjoyed the upgraded room and view during your stay.

"Breakfast aside average"
goingboldly, 13 Juillet 2016

Located on a reasonably busy main road the hotel despite looking modern externally does have an air of being dated internally and having a closer than average eye to cost cutting. Painless check in and good sized clean room though bedroom lighting was gloomy making use of energy saving bulbs (there are brighter energy saving light bulbs just as efficien). A fairly large parking area to the front but a notice in the lift advising to beware of thieves and remove valuables from the car is disconcerting though we had no problems. Breakfast was adequate but the use of paper crockery and plastic cutlery is a real turn off to any food enjoyment. A one night stopover whilst travelling across country and for that it was perfectly adequate but really not one I would go out of my way to stay in again.

Owner Response, 13 Juillet 2016

Thank you for your review. While we are a platinum green hotel, this is done with taking care of our customers. We do have a few fixtures that are now 6 years old and in our capital plan for replacement to LED, not that they are a more common item. Our breakfast program uses a biodegradable plates and cutlery which eliminates the use of harsh chemicals. We built the hotel and provided upgraded furniture, heated bathroom floors, geothermal technology which are cost savings in operational costs but not capital costs to leave a smaller footprint on the environment.

"Great hotel"
RumseyTravelers, 13 Juillet 2016

This is a great hotel and we would definitely stay here again. Rooms were great lots of room we had the suite with 2 queens in a separate room with a pull out couch. Worked great with kids. The pool was great different then just your standard rectangle pool. Breakfast was very good.

Owner Response, 13 Juillet 2016

Thank you for your comments. We designed our pool with the family in mind. An area for smaller children, a lazy river for relaxing and not over 5 ft so reachable for everyone. Our Family suites are also a big hit with "Parents" who can put kids to sleep and still have some quiet time for themselves.

"Always Fantastic!"
smgraham14, 11 Juillet 2016

I have stayed at this hotel on several different occasions - each time it great. The hotel staff are so friendly and accommodating. It is pet friendly which I totally love so I can comfortably travel with my little pup....a couple times I got a little treat bag given to me for her from the front desk as well! Breakfast, coffee, to go bags..... Easy to get onto the highway from this hotel if you are travelling and many great restaurants and gas stations nearby. We ate at an Indian Restaurant just down the street that was really quite good. You won't be disappointed at this hotel!

Owner Response, 11 Juillet 2016

Thank you for your review. Many of our guests are surprised about how convieniant our location actually is and the great Restaurants around us! We are looking at adding some more value added to our pet program in the near future besides the hardwood floor they have now.

"Perfect Stay"
Veets63, 11 Juillet 2016

Awesome hotel and highly recommended. We had a great one night stopover. Hotel is very clean and quiet and only 10min from the downtown area. King room was excellent and Bed firm for a great night sleep. Would definitely say again if in Kamloops.

"Excellent Stay and Great Customer Service"
LatinaLady62, 11 Juillet 2016

Exquisite 1 night couple stay, we were setup on the top floor King suite and served beautifully by Keshia and Yui at the front desk. They were very helpful with suggesting local eateries and extremely pleasant and kind. The hotel is extremely clean, quiet, even though located right off Columbia St (TCH1). Not sure what more you could ask for in a hotel. If need be this hotel is perfect for multiple night stays. No issues recommending this Best Western as it's been one of the nicest we've stayed travelling across Canada from Toronto. 5 Rating from this traveller.

Owner Response, 11 Juillet 2016

Thank you for your kind comments. It is always nice to exceed our guests expectations.

"Average hotel, good for a night stay"
travelsofyash, 10 Juillet 2016

It looks like an older property, there was an odd smell in the hallways and common areas. From a vegetarian perspective breakfast was average. Pancakes tasted bad, pastries were cold, eggs and fruit selection was good. Oatmeal as vegan option is available. Good tea and coffee variety. Breakfast room is small for a property this big. Some redesign here will make feel big and open. Room was big and clean, but decor made it look like from the 90s. LOVE the bath products! All the staff I met was nice and friendly. Didn't use any other amenities so can't speak to those. Overall, average BW Plus. I have stayed at much nicer BW Plus. I think a few changes in their decor will go a long way.

Owner Response, 10 Juillet 2016

We are sorry you did not like our facilities. We pride in keeping our place clean and well maintained. We are already 6 years old and many guests think we are still new. Our breakfast room was just expanded to provide more breakfast space.

Chad M, 04 Juillet 2016

Your standard Best Western Experience. It was clean and comfortable, but the rooms on the side near Columbia St can be quite noisy even at night. We stopped over here on our way to Calgary and found that it was pretty decent for a stop over hotel. The breakfast was really good and had a wide variety of food choices all included in the price of the room. Overall happy.

"Slightly out of town, but reasonable value"
eastlight54, 26 Juin 2016

We booked this as a stopover on route to the Rockies. The hotel is standard Best Western, with an imposing entrance but rather lacking in atmosphere but lots of parking and fitness facilities. All the staff we met were exceptionally friendly and helpful; our room was large, with two very comfortable queen beds, clean and modern with a good size bathroom; the fitness centre with small pool was welcome. There are also guest laundry facilities on site but the hotel does not have a restaurant. The hotel is a 25 min walk downhill to the centre of town where all the restaurants are (there is nothing but fast food nearby) but were took a taxi home which was only 6 CAD. Breakfast is included in the room rate and was poor, no hot option, stodgy pastries, cereals, toast and yoghurts etc; help yourself with paper plates and plastic cutlery in a dining room that resembles a school canteen. All in all a stark contrast to the standard of the rooms; very disappointing Beware this hotel can be difficult to find if you are using a sat nav, which directs you to a domestic property half a mile down the road. We paid £97 for our room

Owner Response, 26 Juin 2016

Thank you for your review. It is unfortunate you did not ask the Front Desk staff as we have many very international restaurants which are not fast food and are walking distance from Hotel. From Japanese sushi, Japanese Burger, Earls, Brown Social house, chinese, Mideast, American casual and yes, fast food. I am also surprised you did not notice the hot egg and protein that we put out every day. It is rotated daily. Our cutlery and plates are a biodegradable product made from potato and Reeds, so we do not have to use harsh chemicals to clean dishes.

"Threat hotel shame about service at breakfast"
MagsBillSmith, 25 Juin 2016

We arrived here very tired after a long day travelling, wanted something to eat and off to bed as another early rise next day. There were long queues for the lifts so we just used the stairs and carried our luggage. The room was very nice, lovely and clean and had twin queen beds. We just put our cases in and went to get something to eat. We went to the buffet lounge but there was nothing for us and what was there did not look appetising, We were told of the lounge upstairs so we went there. A very nice chap called Frank introduced himself and got us some drinks and menus. We chose something to eat and we did not wait too long before we got our meal. It was plain but tasted very nice. We paid and went to our room. We had an early morning wake up call, got up and went to the buffet room for breakfast. We managed to get some cereal and cold tea which was not worth the money. Other people on our tour got absolutely nothing to eat. The hotel dining staff just didn't seem to have a clue and were definitely not prepared for breakfast. Very disappointed.

"Great Family Hotel, Pet Friendly"
Julie V, 20 Juin 2016

This is our go-to hotel when we travel through to Vancouver Island. Excellent service, the pool is great, rooms are quiet, beds are comfortable and pet friendly. The location is also a plus, with easy highway access (but still quiet) and dog walking access. Extra touches like beautiful planters, coffee in the lobby and a terrific breakfast buffet make this hotel a winner.

Owner Response, 20 Juin 2016

Thank you for your comments. We strive to provide a superior product and service and it is always nice to hear from you our guests that we are doing the right things. Thank you.

"Great Place"
LLHH, 15 Juin 2016

Central to Sahali and convenient in and out. Lots of parking. Nice clean rooms with updated bedding. Large tv's and in-room fridge and coffee. Also coffee at reception which is something new. Good fitness centre and pool. Nice staff. Included breakfast is basic compared to other best western hotels but hits the spot.

Owner Response, 15 Juin 2016

Thank you for your comments. We just implemented a new build your own oatmeal and yogurt bar to improve our breakfast offerings. They are going over very well.

"Safe and Sound"
Jake M, 12 Juin 2016

Easy in and out even though you have to get off the highway to get there. Front desk agents are very friendly and helpful. I checked out before the breakfast room opened and the front desk agent offered me a take-out snack bag, which was very nice.

Owner Response, 12 Juin 2016

Thank you for your review. We do have a "Grab n Go" we offer to our guests who have to leave before our breakfast program opens in the morning. We are located just three blocks off the hwy for easy access to hwy and downtown.

"Over night stay"
Y3001HUdeanb, 12 Juin 2016

Excellent service, clean, great breakfast at this hotel (we have previously eaten here) but had to get on the road before breakfast time on this trip. This was the final stay on our return home to Fort McMurray, it was nice to stay at a hotel that cares about about quality. Thank you Best Western Kamloops.

Owner Response, 12 Juin 2016

Thank you for your comments. We had a few guests from Fort McMurray who were on their way away and back home. We are glad to provide a quality stay during thier stressful time.

"Fine place to stay"
woodmister, 07 Juin 2016

The rooms were generous. The beds were good and the WiFi worked fine. The welcoming staff were most friendly and professional. Based on the signage in the elevators and elsewhere this property has problems with property theft from vehicles. Visitors are encouraged to remove all valuables from the vehicles. We had no problem but I worried all night about the four sets of golf gear in my van. I would say that breakfast was less than one would normally find at a quality BW Plus. There are lots of places to at near this hotel.

Owner Response, 07 Juin 2016

Thank you for your comments. The signage we have around the building is to assist in eliminating theft from vehicles by reminding our guests to not leave valuables in plain sight. It has assisted in reducing any theft to a minimum which is what we wanted to accomplish for our guests.

"As expected"
Andrew P, 01 Juin 2016

There was nothing special about this hotel. It looks the same, smells the same, sounds the same, and is the same as every other major chain hotel. They are all overpriced and I generally would not stay here. The stay was just what I expected. I got a deal on priceline. If I didn't get the deal, I would have stayed somewhere less expensive.

"A very nice BW Plus hotel in Kamloops"
R Bruce E, 30 Mai 2016

We normally do not stop in Kamloops in the summer because of the higher cost of hotels, but this time it fit. The value was worth it and we will add this location in our future trips through BC interior.

Owner Response, 30 Mai 2016

Thank you. Kamloops is a better value than Kelowna most of the summer with hotel pricing, plus, were nicer people.

"Right on Columbia Street - Great Location"
FCFireConsulting, 26 Mai 2016

Here is a pleasant surprise, I get to stay in a structure that my Step-father helped build. Nice thing is this hotel is just a short walk to the Kamloops Lookout and so many restaurants and venues within reasonable walking distance. The rooms are nice, clean and affordable for those young families. The continental breakfasts are the standard Best Western menu and quite enjoyable. I am here from the 25-28 May and for mid week it is really busy. Lots of out of Country visitors. Easy parking access and lots of it. Fuel station right close and a traveling food truck out front that people seem to flock to. All in all. A great find.

Owner Response, 26 Mai 2016

Thank you for your comments. We do allow a Food Truck all summer on Thursdays that is very popular in the area and for our visitors to enjoy the experience. They grow most of the food right in Kamloops.

"Exceptional Service"
Susan C, 24 Mai 2016

These folks met and exceeded our needs and desires to make this a very enjoyable (although short) stay in Kamloops. We will probably return for another stay based on both the staff, the facility and how much we now know there is within the community.

Owner Response, 24 Mai 2016

Thank you for your review. Many of our visitors are surprised at what Kamloops has to offer once they get off the highway and see the full city, not just the highway strip.

"Convenient location in the upper part of town, a pleasnt stay"
mjhullah, 18 Mai 2016

Just a one night stay passing through, this was an excellent choice. Friendly staff, clean room with an extensive views to the north and west over the valley and adequate breakfast facilities. Would definitely stay again.

Owner Response, 18 Mai 2016

Thank you. Many guests pick us for their one night pass through during the year and are pleasantly surprised with our facilities and service.

"A pleasant stay as always"
Ngosi, 17 Mai 2016

This is a well managed hotel and the staff is very friendly over the years I have stayed here on numerous occasions and was never disappointed. Rooms are large and bed is very comfortable. When in Kamloops I stay here and can only recommend this place.

Owner Response, 17 Mai 2016

"Comfortable stay"
josephhO9914VQ, 16 Mai 2016

Booking was fairly easy on the phone. Everything worked to order. Check in and out was fast. The gym was adequate, the breakfast was ok. Bed was comfortable, the room and bathroom were very clean. Bath tub was small but that's ok.

Owner Response, 16 Mai 2016

Thank you for your comments. Our housekeeping strive to provide the cleanest rooms in Kamloops and have won many awards for their efforts.

"This is our regular watering hole"
Brian G, 14 Mai 2016

We use BW+ Kamloops regularly, for several years now. Solid quality, no surprises, good staff, hot breakfast, pool and fitness centre. Flat screen TV if you want it, wired and wireless internet with password. Easy to get to off Highway 1 and to get back onto. Plenty of food and shopping choices within a 10 minute drive.

Owner Response, 14 Mai 2016

Thank you for your comments. It is great to hear we are providing the superior customer care we strive to achieve.

"Beautiful hotel"
Judy M, 04 Mai 2016

We always try to stay at Best Western as we like the chain. This hotel was great. I loved the design of our room. Everything was so clean. I was told the hotel was approx. 6 years old and to me it looked newer than that. Very pleasant and helpful staff. We would definitely stay here again.

Owner Response, 04 Mai 2016

Thanks for your comments. It is always nice when our guests recognize the effort we do to keep our property at a high standard.

"Great Hotel"
Qazi K, 03 Mai 2016

Awesome service and awesome location! Great breakfast. The hotel was clean and large rooms. Parking was easy and the view around the hotel and room was beautiful. Lots of stores near by that made things convenient.

Owner Response, 03 Mai 2016

Thanks for your comments. Many guests are pleasantly surprised at what is available in the Sahali area of Kamloops

"Will visit again!"
Cathy M, 03 Mai 2016

When we checked in there were 3 buses of high school athletes. But they were quiet and respectful, no problem at all. We asked for 2 queen beds and were given a king room. The staff corrected the problem right away and were very pleasant. The room was clean, nicely decorated, it's quite new. The beds are comfortable and the linens are nice. The bathroom was large and well equipped. We had breakfast both mornings and enjoyed the meal. It isn't the best breakfast we've had at a Best Western but still nice to have handy in the hotel. I will be back!

Owner Response, 03 Mai 2016

Thanks for your review. Yes, the group was quiet and responsible that weekend for the track meet. We are still striving to improve out breakfast and just implimented a build your own yogurt and oatmeal bar. More to come!

"nice stay"
mawt101, 29 Avril 2016

had a very pleasant stay. warm bathroom floors a nice touch. had trouble connecting to wi fi so front desk brought up a cable and hooked it up and checked to make sure I was connected. the breakfast quality was good but surprised they used plastic and paper unlike our other hotel stays. not very green. considering they have electric car charging station.

"On the Thompson River Trail"
Kenneth T, 27 Avril 2016

Kamloops is situated on the shores of the Thompson River in B.C. On either side of the river are pristine hills which gives one a fantastic view in all directions. At the river side there is a public park which is well worth one's visit. The Best Western hotel is situated half way up a hill whereby one overlooks the town and the river; an advantageous viewing location. The hotel is clean and appears to be recently built.

Owner Response, 27 Avril 2016

Thank you Kenneth for taking the time to write us a review. We are glad that you have enjoyed our comfortable beds, our upgraded amenities, and our locality! Our team always strives to provide excellent customer service. Indeed many of our rooms enjoy a fantastic view overlooking the river and city.

Great location close to downtown and anywhere else in Kamloops. Hotel is very clean and rooms are large. Pool is large and hot tub is a treat. I had a lovely breakfast for free each morning and enjoyed the newspaper. Staff where all friendly and helpful.

"Great Best Western Plus Kamloops Hotel"
356lillyv, 20 Avril 2016

For several years now I have chosen Best Western Hotels or Inns to stay while traveling and have not ever been disappointed. On occasion I take a different chain for location purposes but if that is not necessary Best Western is always awesome. The Best Western Kamloops Hotel is set aside near malls and restaurants and was easy to find. The staff especially the lady who checked us in and out was wonderful. In fact everyone including cleaning staff were friendly and made eye contact. This Best Western Plus Kamloops hotel was a perfect stay for our family. The room was generous for our needs and everyone slept well. The breakfast was excellent and the attendant very helpful as I had my young grandson. Her assistance was appreciated. I recommend this Best Western Plus Kamloops Hotel to anyone doing business there or just passing through as we did.

"Best Western Plus Kamloops"
Jessie157, 17 Avril 2016

It's clean, friendly, nice breakfast, good amenities, good location. The only problem was that there didn't seem to be much in the way of soundproofing between rooms. We heard the folks from next door, upstairs, and down the hall visiting.

"Disappointed"
Trudy L, 17 Avril 2016

Seems that whenever we use our BW points to stay at the hotel we get the lousiest room in the place, the most uncomfortable bed and in the nosiest location. We felt like second class citizens and it's happened before. Terrible beds, terrible food, just an overall bad experience.

"best of the three Best Westerns we stayed in during this trip"
travelite_go, 13 Avril 2016

We stayed at three Best Western hotels during this trip from Vancouver to Banff and Jasper. This was our first stop and we stayed overnight to rest from the long drive. Our family of 6 stayed in a large room with two large beds and a separate living area with a large sofa bed. It was very spacious, comfortable and well designed. It's also the little details that made me realize that this was a notch above the usual. The toiletries were made in Canada and had organic ingredients. The breakfast buffet had a good spread and I particularly remember that the hot chocolate sachets were delicious. Kudos to this hotel for aiming and achieving a higher standard.

Owner Response, 13 Avril 2016

Thank you for your comments. It is always nice to hear and see when our focus on customer care is recognized by our guests. We strive to provide superior customer care to all our guests and are always looking at ways to improve the customer experience. We just updated our breakfast program to include a build your own yogurt, oatmeal and pancake programs to improve our service to our guests.

"Never disappointing!"
Carolyn N, 08 Avril 2016

We've stayed at this location 3 years in a row, twice during Christmas break and once during spring break. We are NEVER disappointed with our stay. While it is a little higher priced, I KNOW I'll be satisfied with everything. The pool is fairly basic, but my girls still have lots of fun, and the hot tub is always the perfect temperature. The onsite laundry doesn't break your wallet, and the breakfast has enough choices for our entire picky family. The staff is not just friendly, but welcoming and genuine. Honestly one of the best BW hotels we've ever stayed at!

Owner Response, 08 Avril 2016

Thank you for your review. It is always satisfying as a hotel to see guests enjoy our facilities and see the standards we strive to achieve every day. Yes, we are not the cheapest but we strive to provide value for our facilities.

"Kamloop's Best Western"
M8487TBjohnw, 30 Mars 2016

Room carpet was wet and the room had a musty smell. At checkout the staff did not care when I discussed it. You can hear the toilet in the room next door. The rooms are right on the highway so noisy. Multiple notices to remove all items from you vehicle due to multiple break-ins.

Owner Response, 30 Mars 2016

I have sent this reviewer a private message. We found a small wet spot near our A/C unit which was quickly sucked up. Our notices are a friendly reminder to not leave things in the open as a way of assisting in reducing break-ins in partnership with the RCMP, not because we have had multiple break-ins, but to ensure we don't get any. It has been well received and we have not had a break-in in over a year.

"Clean and friendly"
Jessica B, 29 Mars 2016

We arrived at the hotel later in the evening just in time for my daughters to swim. The pool was clean and towels were warm. Just before bed, one of my daughters got a bit of stomach ache. I went down to the desk and asked if she could have a slice of bread or toast. They suggested that yogurt would help and brought back from the kitchen a yogurt and a muffin. This solved the stomach ache. Both of the staff were eager to help and very friendly. Our room was clean and beds were comfortable. The breakfast in the morning was plentiful and well organized with a large variety of options.

Owner Response, 29 Mars 2016

Thank you for your comments. It is great when our customer service makes a difference for our guests. We empower our staff to provide superior customer care and I see they took that empowerment and provided the service our customers are coming to expect.

"Very Comfortable"
Andrew A, 19 Mars 2016

We enjoyed our stay in this Best Western, Kamloops. Friendly and helpful staff, and a clean and comfortable room. Especially enjoyed their indoor heated saltwater pool and jacquzi. Breakfast wasn't bad, as these things go. Very clean and well maintained hotel as befits the Best Western Plus brand.

Owner Response, 19 Mars 2016

Thank you for your review. Many guests like our indoor saltwater pool and hot tub. Our lazy river in the pool is also a kids favourite.

"Beautiful hotel with great access to everywhere"
Sarah C, 18 Mars 2016

I love staying at this hotel. The staff is always amazing, the rooms are clean and large. The pool and hot tub are great, and the gym isn't bad. It's easy to get downtown, to the hospital and to the shopping centres at the top of the hill. It's near the university as well. It's very quiet - there's lots of parking, and the free breakfast is great. Having free wifi is really nice too.

Owner Response, 18 Mars 2016

Thank you for your comments. Many of our guests are surprised at how central our location is to many parts of town. We are just changing our breakfast to include a build your own oatmeal and yogurt station.

"Always Impressed, Fantastic Customer Service"
Lisa S, 16 Mars 2016

I've stayed here quite frequently for work, and have used their conference room for business meetings as well. The property itself is great, the rooms I've stayed in even have hardwood floor, which is something I've never seen in a hotel room before. The rooms are very spacious, and very clean. The breakfast is great, lots of options and love the pancake machine! Location wise, there are a lot of dining options along Columbia and it's really handy to have the Superstore right next door, especially if you're needing to pick up something in a pinch. I'll definitely stay again.

Owner Response, 16 Mars 2016

Thank you for your review. We installed hardwood flooring on our ground floor standard rooms that are also pet friendly. They have been a hit for both regular guests and our furry guests. The area around our hotel has become known for its international flavor of restaurants and all within walking distance of the hotel.

"A new comfortable Best Western"
BarriereFisherman, 03 Mars 2016

This is a fairly new property. We found it to be very clean and comfortable. The breakfast had a large selection of choices. The bed was comfortable with four pillows to choose from. The fan on the heating unit was a bit loud, but we turned it off and the room remained comfortable.

Owner Response, 03 Mars 2016

Thank you for your comments. We have been open 6 years now and still get comments like this about being fairly new. We pride ourselves in maintaining a quality product and it is great when our guests notice our efforts.

"Good stay"
TwigTraveler, 02 Mars 2016

Stayed for a couple nights. The staff were friendly and polite. The room was up to date and clean. Wifi was decent. Cable tv selection is typical basic package. The breakfast in the morning was great, had hot food also. The only negative for me was the lights in bathroom were limited, The lighting in the shower/bath tub was dark. Overall it was a comfortable and quiet stay.

Owner Response, 02 Mars 2016

Thank you for your comments. We are in the middle of planning a fixture change in our bathrooms as we have had a few comments about the lighting in the bathrooms. It is planned for 2016 as part of our three year capital plan to maintain and upgrade our property.

"Always a great stay"
Sandi R, 29 Février 2016

We stay here whenever we go through to Vancouver. A friendly, clean hotel with very good service. They have a great little breakfast to get you going. The location is handy for shopping and restaurants. I have never had a negative experience at this hotel.

Owner Response, 29 Février 2016

Thank you for your review. It is great to hear from someone who has been here and still receives our superior customer care.

"Relaxing stay"
586deborahl, 17 Février 2016

The room was spacious and comfortable. Really enjoyed the pool and hot tub as well. When I was here last year, the breakfast room was being renovated, so I assumed that was the reason for the paper plates and plastic cutlery. However, I was surprised to see the same setup again this year. It just seems wasteful. The breakfast itself was fine. I found the staff to be courteous and helpful.

Owner Response, 17 Février 2016

Thank you for your review. Our cutlery in our breakfast room is actually biodegradable and made from a reed byproduct and potatoes. This saves us having to use harsh chemicals as required by law to wash dishes and sending these chemicals into any water systems.

"Excellent value"
mortifiedCanada, 06 Février 2016

This hotel offers reasonable rates that include a decent buffet breakfast. The location is very handy as it is central and close to everything. They have great staff and offer excellent, friendly service. The entire facility is super clean, rooms are large, comfortable beds and just a great value.

Owner Response, 06 Février 2016

Thank you for your review. Many guests are finding our location as very central to their needs for visiting Kamloops.

"Best Western Express Kamloops"
Mark H, 02 Février 2016

Very pleasant stay. Employees friendly and helpful. Would definitely choose this hotel again. Was up too early for breakfast which was included but I was offered a pack breakfast to take with me when I checked out. Very nice touch!

Owner Response, 02 Février 2016

Thank you for your comments. We do have a Grab n Go program for those guests who leave before our breakfast program opens in the morning. It has been a well received service we now provide to our guests.

"New hotel, good size room, bad coffee"
West M, 23 Janvier 2016

Stayed overnight for business, good rate, nice rooms, bed and pillows (lots & fluffy) were great. They have dedicated WiFi for each room, that was good. The only thing I would change is they use the cheapest coffee available, Mother Parkers throughout the hotel. Why not use a local coffee roaster that has fresh interesting coffee? Other than that it was a good stay.

Owner Response, 23 Janvier 2016

Thank you for your review. Many guests enjoy our individual room wifi. I am sorry you do not enjoy our coffee. Many guests compliment us on the taste. We are in the middle of changing our room coffee program to a Kureg type system but it will be a biodegradable and recyclable pod.

"Great stay"
Gary C, 20 Janvier 2016

Wonderful greeting when I arrived, and a pleasant good by when I left. Room was clean and comfortable. This hotel is located very close to the highway #1 and is easy to find. Good restaurant just across the street and down a half a block. Lovely place.

Owner Response, 20 Janvier 2016

Thank you for your comments. Many guests find our location is a easy access from the highway and close to restaurants and shopping.

"OK stay had better"
Rhiannon S, 16 Janvier 2016

Does not meet expectation of a best western plus; -Could hear traffic all night long. -Bed had just a thin blanket on it. -Shower leaked all over the floor which made you use all the towels just to clean it up. -food looked like it had been out all night long. Pancake maker didn't work. Pastries were stale. -cleaning ladies making unnecessary noise in the hallway at 7 am woke us up.

Owner Response, 16 Janvier 2016

Guest did not report any of this during stay. We could not find any problem with heating system or bathroom . We do have spare blankets in all our closets. Our security cameras show our Room Attendant went to the floor at 8:14 am to start cleaning rooms, not 7 am. Our pancake maker was replaced last week and we are still working a few bugs out of the new one but we seem to now have it corrected and new procedures in place to ensure it works properly.

"Dec 2015"
Anna C, 09 Janvier 2016

We enjoyed our week long stay at this hotel. The staff were very friendly and helpful. The lobby area was nicely decorated for the Christmas season. The kids in our group enjoyed the hotel's amenities.

Owner Response, 09 Janvier 2016

Thank you for your comments. The BC Jr. Curling event we hosted was a great group of kids and the staff enjoyed hosting the group. The pool and evening social room were definitely a hit with the kids.

"really good night at Kamloops Best Western"
Marc F, 08 Janvier 2016

This was our second experience with the Kamloops Best Western. Both times were very positive experiences. The staff were very friendly and accommodating. The room was far better than what we had expected. The complimentary breakfast was excellent. This hotel has developed an excellent atmosphere.

Owner Response, 08 Janvier 2016

Thank you for the review. Many guests are surprised by our layout with the bathrooms between the rooms rather than in the rooms which gives our guests a more spacious room to enjoy.

"Quick enjoyable stay"
northernschulz, 08 Janvier 2016

Quick stay. Room 415. King bed with lots of space in the room. Free wifi. Quiet and Nicely appointed. Great breakfast. Very friendly staff. BCAA rate roughly 130. Located on the hill and easy to get to but you need a car to go visit anything. Nice and clean cardio room with a pool and hot tub.

Owner Response, 08 Janvier 2016

Thank you for the comments.Our King bedded rooms which are only on our top floor, are very spacious and we have individual room wifi which is very popular with our guests. This time of year a car is needed but in the summer, many restaurants are walking distance away.

"Best place to stay in Kamloops!"
Brenda P, 04 Janvier 2016

We love this hotel and always stay here while travelling to Vancouver. Staff are very friendly, polite, and go above and beyond to make your stay enjoyable. Rooms are large, comfortable, and very clean. I'm pretty sure it's a fairly new hotel and has a great view of the mountains all around it. Lots of shopping and restaurants within walking distance of the hotel too!

Owner Response, 04 Janvier 2016

Thank you for your review. We are always excited when our guests say "new hotel" after 5 years! Yes, we are proud of our property and the staff take pride in keeping it that way for all our guests.

"Most helpful check in clerk"
RLMBAM, 17 Décembre 2015

We stayed at this hotel twice in the last 7 months - both times for funerals. The staff was most accommodating in trying to have a room ready for us as we needed an early check in. Our room was comfortable, very clean and the bed and pillows were excellent. The location is convenient to restaurants & shopping although a car would be needed for getting to the shopping area. if in Kamloops again this hotel will be our choice to stay in. All staff including breakfast staff are pleasant & try to be helpful any way they can.

Owner Response, 17 Décembre 2015

Thank you for your review. Many guests find our location ideal for their visit to Kamloops, whether shopping, sports or sight-seeing.

"Good place to stay in Kamloops"
Ed H, 14 Décembre 2015

We were in Kamloops for a swim meet and stayed at this hotel. It is a good, clean hotel with comfortable beds, lots of parking, a nice swimming pool area, and good central location. The breakfast was average. The hotel is located on a busy road and there was a lot of noise during the night; if you are a light sleeper, it might be best to request a room at the back of the hotel away from the road.

Owner Response, 14 Décembre 2015

Thank you for your review. When you have high volume of traffic in your breakfast (all swimmers had to be out by 7 am), your options to provide product are more limited than a regular volume over 3 hours. We still provided a good quality, just not a high variety that weekend.

"A pleasant surprise"
Peter V, 08 Décembre 2015

I haven't had much luck with 'dog friendly' hotels in Canada - they are usually rundown and dumpy, and they hand you the dumpiest of the dumpiest rooms and charge you $25 or more for your dog, so whenever possible I head south to stay in La Quintas. But this hotel is the exception to the rule. It is La Quinta North and that's a good thing. Exceptionally clean room, great staff too. There were a few niggling things. The first TWO sets of hotel key cards did not open the back door, where we were located (to make it easy, dog). The room (121) is at the back and spacious. The while there was absolutely no highway noise, the room was kind of noisy - in two ways. The heating system clicked on and off all day with the requisite fan noise, and there are a LOT of monitor lights - one on the ceiling, one on the door light switch, two on the TV and satellite box, one in the bathroom, etc - so if you are a light sleeper bring earplugs and blindfold. Other than that, perfect - great hot breakfast - eggs, fruit salads, hot coffees, a nice treat. Oh, if you have a dog, there is a vacant lot next door, but a bit scratchy and muddy - behind a derelict motel - but a 50 yards down the hill is a Kamloops Lookout, with a great grassy area and a beautiful view of the valley.

Thank you for your comments. Yes, most rooms in Canada have those little ights which are fire or safety monitors installed for guest safety. We did upgrade our pet friendly rooms to a laminate floor which seems to be a big hit with our four legged guests.

"Good Hotel"
Ali Y, 08 Décembre 2015

Very good sleep. Very comfortable bed & pillows. Nice view of city. Carpet in the room was worn and should be replaced Good staff , great service , Breakfast could be better. The waffle batter is flat , needs baking powder or something ?. The scambled eggs are cooked in plastic bag !. Choice of cereal not healthy. There is no honey.

Owner Response, 08 Décembre 2015

Thank you for your review. We do not have a waffle machine. We cook our eggs from cartons in a skillet for scrambled eggs, not bags and our cereal always has a bran and whole wheat option. They might of gotten another hotel mixed up with ours on their travels.

"Excellent Customer Service"
kjj721, 03 Décembre 2015

I arrived at the Best Western in Kamloops in the evening with my two children (11 months and three years) after booking what I belived was a suite through my travel rewards card. Upon getting into the room, I realized it wasn't a suite and went back down to the front desk so they could change the room. After some confusion it became clear that the error was not on the hotels end. However, they upgraded our room free of charge and and were very patient and professional. I was very surprised and impressed and will definitely be back. Additionally the room was great. I have stayed in the suite before when traveling with children and it is perfect. I definitely recommend it for families. We have stayed in other suites in Kamloops as well and this one is the best by far.

Owner Response, 03 Décembre 2015

Thank you for your review. We are glad to hear our staff exercised their superior customer care in this instance. Yes, we are quite proud and get many families wanting our one bedroom suites with the hide-bed in the living room which works well for them.

"Christmas Shopping"
Dale B, 02 Décembre 2015

Very clean, comfortable and relaxing always recommend best western. breakfast are always hot and you know you have a good thing when all the other hotels start following your lead (respectful Hotels ).

Owner Response, 02 Décembre 2015

Yes, being a leader in the Kamloops market does make our competition a bit of copy cats! We strive to provide superior customer care to our guests and if that improves it for all the city guests, we like that foo!

"Kid friendly"
NikkiRorison, 21 Novembre 2015

Central Kamloops, near by pubs, shopping, as well as the hospital. Close enough to TRU, and the REC centre is right around the corner Enjoyable size pool and hot tub. Complamentry breakfast as well. Rooms are a decent size and very clean, my family enjoys there stays.

Owner Response, 21 Novembre 2015

Thank you for your comments. We focus on being "Family Friendly" with our facilites and services. This also caused us to expand our seating in our breakfast room in 2015 as the large family business needed more seats.

"Decent Hotel in Kamloops"
Wolf E, 19 Novembre 2015

Have stayed here several times and will again. Most rooms I've slept in seem to have stale air likely because the opening windows are very small and the rooms probably never are aired out properly. I can tell a difference to the "smell" of the air from the hallways to the rooms. The breakfast is good, too.

Owner Response, 19 Novembre 2015

Thank you for your review. The "Stale" smell is the actual smell of our rooms without any perfumes. We do not use any masking or perfumes in our rooms. While the smell is not as appeasing as a say floral smell, the removal of masking agents and perfumes we felt was more important for our "Green" program and our guests.

"Very Pleasant!"
Paulshappy, 17 Novembre 2015

The Best Western Plus Kamloops was a very pleasant overnight hotel for us. It also set new standards for me because I would never have accepted a room across from an elevator and beside an ice-maker, but I did and I couldn't hear anything outside my door, so kudos to the high building standard. The room was large and clean and almost new, but I would have liked a picture above the work desk as it just seemed a bit empty. We really enjoyed the large hot tub, and the free breakfast and free WIFI was both awesome. The front desk staff were very helpful to us in finding a delivery food service. I would recommend the Best Western Plus to fellow travellers.

Owner Response, 17 Novembre 2015

Thanks for your review. Many guests are pleasantly surprised at our individual room wifi and its great bandwidth. We always like when our reviewers use the word "New" after 5 years!

"great hotel"
Donald S, 11 Novembre 2015

We have stayed at many BW's. This one was one of the best, good design in the room, especially the bathroom. Very friendly and knowledgeable staff staff. (good recommendations for dinner and other things we needed) Breakfast was good, very friendly and helpful attendant in breakfast room. Real cups, not paper in room coffee maker. Will stay there againl

Owner Response, 11 Novembre 2015

Thank you for your review. We take pride in our customer care and it is nice when our clients tell us we are working in the right direction.

"Shorts in the Shower"
Craig G, 09 Novembre 2015

Lovely hotel aside from the cleanliness of the room and the lack of addressing the issue with some form of discount or something. When you check into a hotel you don't expect to find the last guests swim trunks hanging in the middle of the shower. How house cleaning missed it is beyond us. What's scary is what else did they miss?

Owner Response, 09 Novembre 2015

Our room attendant had cleaned the room and had noticed the bathing suit which was still wet. She cleaned the rest of the room but forgot to go back to the bathroom and grab them at the last step. We did go up and apologize to the guest and explain to them that was the case so we are surprised at the comment about cleanliness as they seemed ok when we spoke to them after they called down and our housekeeper and another room attendant went up to the room to respond and clean room if needed. As room was clean and we responded quickly and removed the bathing suit, we did not feel a discount was necessary.

"Centrally located Hotel"
butchart, 07 Novembre 2015

Had a great stay! Hotel staff were friendly. Breakfast was a good fast breakfast. Nice, new looking hotel. Located close to everything in town. Room was really nice and clean and fresh smelling. Rooms had AC/Heating.

Owner Response, 07 Novembre 2015

Thank you for your review. Many guests find out location ideal for their visit to Kamloops with our close proximity to shopping and restaurants.

"Always a nice stay"
Melanie S, 24 Octobre 2015

Love the heated floors in the bathroom. The staff are always nice. The hotel is clean and welcoming. Close to all sorts of shopping. Breakfast is good. Lots of tv channels to choose from and movies to order if you want to treat your self. I love to stay here.

Owner Response, 24 Octobre 2015

Wow, we sure like it when our happy guests tell everyone about our Hotel. What better advertising than a satisfied guest.

"Excellent place to stay in Kamloops"
Eagle3775144, 23 Octobre 2015

Happy staff, comfortable bed.. Close to shopping and restaurants. We had our little Pomeranian with us and the pet room had a hardwood floor. No smell and we felt it was very sanitary. Excellent breakfast, 3 cheese omelette, sausage, bacon, 5 links of coffee, tea, pastry, juices etc.

Owner Response, 23 Octobre 2015

Thank you for your review. Our new flooring in our pet rooms are a big hit with everyone. Our expanded breakfast room is also well noticed by our guests. thank you for staying with us.

"Good hotel"
Harold G, 22 Octobre 2015

The hotel was clean and newer. The beds and fixtures were built very low for shorter people which my wife liked. The price was high for equivalent hotels, but maybe not so much in Canada. Most of my experience is in the U.S.

Owner Response, 22 Octobre 2015

Thank you for your review. Our pricing is comparable to other upper mid-market properties in Kamloops. We are glad you enjoyed your stay.

"Huge Rooms"
kamotion6, 18 Octobre 2015

Modern, clean rooms. Very spacious 2 queen beds with couch and desk area. Large bathroom with adequate counter space. Not like a usual cramped 2 queen room from similar hotels. Nice pool, hot tub and work out area. Pool was interesting shape and decor, salt water. Comfortable temperature. Friendly reception staff. Booked through Priceline. Very happy with the price for value.

Owner Response, 18 Octobre 2015

Thank you for your review. 1/2 of our standard rooms are with the extra space and a couch as your booked. They are very popular with families so space to move. Our pool was designed with a lazy river at one end and a partition wall to protect the younger ones who want to enjoy the pool with the older children.

"Nice big room"
Stephen C, 11 Octobre 2015

All Best Western Pluses are not created equal, and one of the main variables is the quality of the free breakfast. In this case it was really quite good. Excellent large room and nice bathroom. Made a great stop on our way from Jasper to Seattle.

Owner Response, 11 Octobre 2015

Thank you for your review. We strive to provide a quality and good variety in our breakfast program while still enduring to our "Green" initiatives. We do that by buying local products and using biodegradable cutlery and plates.

"good location"
Brenda Z, 09 Octobre 2015

This was our first stay at a best western hotel. They had a good breakfast area and there was an assortment of food choices, and plenty of room to sit. It has a good location (walking distance to stores, restaurants, etc. They have friendly and informative staff. The room was clean and the internet worked fine.

Owner Response, 09 Octobre 2015

Welcome to Best Western. We are glad your first experience was a good one. We strive to provide superior customer care to all our guests in all our properties. We hope you continue to enjoy what Best Western has to offer.

"Easy check in, last minute room"
melzer26, 08 Octobre 2015

After driving all day, we pulled in here for a room. They had one, checked me in within mere minutes. Nice spacious room, large bathroom, good TV. Desk staff helped us with directions around town. Very nice stay. Oh, and was easy to get to.

Owner Response, 08 Octobre 2015

Thank you for your review. Many guests are surprised with our 42" HDTV in each room. We are glad our recommendations around town worked out for you.

"Excellent "
jackocalgary_AB, 05 Octobre 2015

Very pleasant check in counter; pet friendly rooms with small gift for pets. Very spacious rooms; close to a rear exit for ease of taking pets outside. Had double queen room with sofa. Very nice breakfast that had scrambled eggs, bacon & sausage the morning we were there. Good location with shopping very close. Would highly recommend

Owner Response, 05 Octobre 2015

Thank you for your review. Many of our guests with pets also comment on our rooms and easy access outside for thier pets needs. We expanded our breakfast room this year to also make more room for our many guests.

"Kamloops"
Elizabeth V, 29 Septembre 2015

Hotel was clean inside and outside, staff friendly and helpful, breakfast buffet was very good with lots of variety, located within walking distance of a small mall & a variety of restaurants, quiet, quite a view

Owner Response, 29 Septembre 2015

Thank you for your comments. Many guests enjoy our location for their stay in Kamloops.

"They don't really care about the guests."
Stacey S, 28 Septembre 2015

This hotel had nice rooms but that is where it ended. The front desk staff was curt and verging on rude, completely unhelpful. Our room rate was increased based on how many people in the room, I booked for 1 adult and my friend came as well so they jacked the rate for the second person. Who does that anymore? My friend asked for a robe to use at the pool and was told that they are only for our 'suite' guests. I guess the non-suite guest are to walk around the hotel in a bathing suit. Our TV picture was showing everything with a brutal green tinge which I asked the front desk to fix as we were locked out of that function. When it wasn't fixed I asked again and they told me that if it wasn't reported before 4:30pm than it couldn't be fixed as there was no maintenance man. Its just a picture adjustment, really? Someone else couldn't have done it?? The breakfast was pretty gross, the scrambled eggs had been there for quite a while, the sausages were dry and the bacon was see through. Not even close to bacon, it could have been a bacon flavoured product... The coffee was undrinkable, smelled like manure. We could have stayed at the Doubletree down the road for about $40 less a night, we will next time.

Owner Response, 28 Septembre 2015

We are sorry that your stay was anything but special. We strive to provide great service to all our guests. Many hotels charge rates based on people in the room (especially with free breakfast). Yes, only our suites are provided robes for their perusal. that is a perk of value for price paid. I am sorry you TV did not work properly when you arrived. they are setup for security reasons so only the maintenance can change settings which was what was wrong with yours. We do use real bacon and sorry you did not enjoy our full buffet style breakfast which is a big hit with many families that visit our hotel. Our coffee is 100% Colombia and we even have a dark roast that we now offer.

"Hotel on the hill"
stephen_manney56, 25 Septembre 2015

We arrived very early, not expecting our room to be available. Hotel receptionists very helpful, suggested some places to visit until check in. Good location, clean but rooms very dark, could do with some updating & brighter room decor. Only coffee available in the room, tea would have have been nice as an option. Good breakfast; again, paper plates. Yuck. Plenty of parking.

Owner Response, 25 Septembre 2015

Thank you for your comments. We do provide tea in all our rooms. I am sorry if we missed it in your room during your stay. We do use plates in our breakfast room that are biodegradable and made from a reed byproduct rather than paper which is substainable.
