Reviews for Bowmont Motel

Review 1:I liked that it had a separate kitchen for cooking. The outdoor covered patio, 2 simulated firepits, 3 large BBQ'S, the pool, hot tub and sauna were all very nice amenities. A great place to have a family reunion or other type of group function.

Review 2:It would be nice if the bathroom had a fan instead of cracking the window, which is in he hallway where others walk by. The decor was nice but more updating of this facility will be needed in future. And a small detail, but potentially a liability, was that the sprinklers sprayed on the stairs, it would be good if this could be adjusted.

Review 3:You can't beat the location and the price, we would stay here again.

Review 4:a bit out of the way to find, and also to travel to other areas of the city, but city is small so wasn't too bad. Motel is a bit dated, and could use a face lift.

Review 5:Very spacious. Full kitchen including stove, fridge, dishes, and utensils. Spa, including pool and hot tub. Staff very friendly and helpful, and fixed a problem right away in the suite.

Review 6:The carpets were loose, and some of the fixtures need updating

Review 7:The facilities were clean and had all the nesseccities and I thought were spacious, it was fairly quiet

Review 8:Great room, super friendly staff, really clean, has a home feeling vibe,and best value I have found anywhere. love this place, my new favourite in Penticton. If you want a wonderful experience and do not want to spend much money, then this place is for you

Review 9:Family owned business that really made us feel welcome, and the kids loved the pool and location right by the go carts/adventureland. My wife and I loved the central BBQ area with the best grills we've ever used.

Review 10:There were a lot of flies but we bought a fly swatter and left it behind for future tenants. It would be nice if the ice was free.

Review 11:I loved the courtyard area, complete with warm water pool and small hot tub. There was also a bbq covered area and a few tables with gas fire pits. Beautiful ambiance. I will definitely stay there again! We loved it.

Review 12:Too loud into the night. Walls thin. Learned more about my neighbors than I liked. Room faced the BBQ area & pool where it appeared both staff & guests congregated till too late in the evening for my preference. I'm certain others of a more social attitude would find it entertaining.

Review 13:Staff I met were very friendly. At another time when I wasn't concerned with a family death I'm certain I would have enjoyed the social aspect of the location much more.

Review 14:At the beginning and end of our stay, loud parties in the common area beside the pool disrupted our sleep. Would have appreciated staff telling people to turn it down.

Review 15:Spacious kitchen and clean room; great location; great price.

Review 16:Super friendly staff, gave advice on local restaurants. Great pool/hot tub area. Room was older in decor but very clean and everything you could need.

Review 17:Updated courtyard is fantastic, with high-end bbq's and firepit tables. Staff are friendly and helpful. Rooms are generously sized and kitchenettes are fully appointed though dated.

Review 18:The bed had been laid on and not remaid.it was a non smoking room but it smelled like stale smoke and beer. Very noisy in the morning next to the stairs.could not sleep past 8 am and we arived at 130 am.

Review 19:Rooms could use some updating, bathrooms need some work and kitchen needs more supplies and better quality toaster and coffee maker. Over all we had a great time just a few minor things that could be over looked :)

Review 20:Pool and hot tub were great, BBQ area with fire pit tables were excellent! Beds were very comfortable and room was a good size.

Review 21:Air conditioner and fan were extremely loud. Had to unplug. Bathroom exhaust also very loud. Fridge noisy and had to unplug as well. Poor sleep.

Review 22:Clean roomy space. Close to SOEC.

Review 23:Didn't want to leave our trip was amazing and The Bowmont Hotel was a big part of that

Review 24:The location was perfect right in the hub. They had everything we needed on site. The pool was great and the owners and staff were always working hard to clean,fix and help with anything. Would stay every time

Review 25:BBQ area was fantastic, loved the fire pits. Pool was super clean. Owners/managers were friendly and accomdating. Location was great. The motel was in really good repair and was quiet.

Review 26:The owners and staff were friendly and attentive. The outdoor pool was very pleasant. Well maintained, good size. The owners put on an excellent barbecue for the guests during the week I stayed.

Review 27:The pillows were paper thin and very hard. After 4 days, had significant back pain.

Review 28:We really liked the location...close to the lake, channel and all those restaurants!!!

Review 29:No bad experiences.

Review 30:Very clean and up dated, will be staying in room 115 again, very quite, no noise from other rooms. The lady at the front desk her name was Sam. She made you feel welcome the first second she came it to the office.

Review 31:Needs more take out menues in info binder

Review 32:I love this place. We wanted something close to the beach and more family oriented. It was a few min walk and everyone was so friendly. The staff were amazing, the room was nicely air conditioned and we had everything we needed.

Review 33:There was an amusement park directly across the street in clear view from the suite. My children were incessantly reminded of it and constantly bothered us to go there. That negated the rest of the experience for us.

Review 34:The motel was clean. The pool was great and it was a great place for three noisy children to have fun in the pool.

Review 35:The only thing we didn't like was the pillows. We both had sore necks from the pillows being so flat but not a big deal because we will just bring our own next time we stay! Would still come back for sure!

Review 36:We liked - the cleanliness - the staff was very helpful and friendly - the pool was great - the location is awesome

Review 37:Rooms are a bit dated but they are very clean.

Review 38:Nice swimming pool and spa. Location is right beside the park so if you have kids it's a great place to stay. Beds are hard but that is how I like them. Price was very reasonable. Friendly staff and very clean rooms.

Review 39:Not really a bad experience, but the beds could use better pillows and triple sheeting/duvet instead of the 1990's style bedspread.

Review 40:The staff/owners. They're just so happy to have you there and remember your name as you walk by. Super willing to help you with anything they can and super accommodating to all requests. Also, the Internet connection was the BEST I have ever had in any hotel ever. Wasn't on it much, but it was nice to not have to worry about trying to get a connection. The facilities were amazing. 4 BBQ's that are brand new and in a beautiful setting. The pool area is all quality. Bowmont has great facilities. Also it's like a 2 minute walk to some really nice restaurants on the lake strip. Salty's is a hop, skip and a jump away. I am staying there next time. Not even a question.

Review 41:Loved the location close to the beach. Our room was clean and contained a full kitchen. The staff was friendly and helpful. Will definitely stay here again.

Review 42:The rooms were a bit dated but they were very clean. They have just revamped their whole pool area and will be updating their rooms within the next year. The owners were extremely nice, gracious, amazing people. I will definitely go back to stay there. Excellent location near the beach.

Review 43:No highchair! Me and mom have rented a family suite for 4 nights and the only time we were able to eat together with my 8 months baby girl was when we went out. They have really nice patio, lots of options to sit down and enjoy your meals. We had to take turns because someone had to hold the baby. Tip for Bowmont Motel: Ikea has really cheap highchairs! Just buy one or two and THEN call yourself a 'family friendly' place. Frustrating experience.

Review 44:great location;comparing to other motels, Bowmont has some grass

Review 45:There was nothing we didn't like -- which is rare. We travel a lot for business and stay in a lot of different hotels and motels and there's is almost always something that needs improving.

Review 46:We liked everything . . . from the location to the property itself to the family owning and running the place! With the covered outdoor barbecue and patio area to the lovely pool to the grassy yard, with seating all around (including right outside our door) it couldn't have been much better -- but it was! Go inside and we had a simply but beautifully appointed, nicely renovated room, with a full separate kitchen . . . and an uber-comfortable bed. We can't wait till we can find the time to go back for a longer stay!

Review 47:No really comfortable chairs.

Review 48:Pool and hot tub. Extra friendly staff. Location to beach. Kitchen has real stove and fridge a person could live here for several months. Roomy lots of storage and room to move about. Takes you back to the 60's era

Review 49:Our floor AC unit was very loud but there was a secondary unit on the wall that we used. Perhaps that's why there was 2?!

Review 50:Great outdoor space, BBQ, pool, hot tub. Charming 80's style room with plenty of space! Extremely helpful and super nice staff!

Review 51:bathroom -ceiling stains ,fan loud, toilet sometimes wouldn't stop running, Cleanliness - venetians, rugs etc need good cleaning.

Review 52:Outside Area Awesome with pool, patio, bq area . Loved having kitchen area and separate bedroom. Close to lake and park. Staff very welcoming.

Review 53:First night I had noisy neighbours, who kept waking the dogs.

Review 54:Very clean rooms & friendly owners, made the dogs very welcome with great walks around area.

Review 55:The only thing that I can say negatively about our stay is about the bed. While it was a king size it was also very very firm.

Review 56:Check in staff was friendly, helpful and very courteous. The room was a good size ,very clean and quiet location.

Review 57:The suite was a good size and had all the comforts needed from a affordable destination. Location was perfect for business trip and family activities.

Review 58:Noisy road traffic Too noisy fan Not enough bright lighting in bathroom.

Review 59:Large room Clean Excellent staff Location close to walking and coffee shops

Review 60:What we enjoyed the most was how friendly and welcoming Christine was. Our room was very clean, spacious and comfortable. We would certainly stay here again!

Review 61:The room was a basic room. However, the walls had been freshly painted, it was clean and the bed was surprisingly comfortable. Excellent value for the price. Christine at the front desk was extremely friendly and helpful

Review 62:Noisy even with the ear plugs. Someone was screaming between 11pm-3am. Missed a good sleep. But this happens in any public sleeping area - can't control the ignorant neighbours.

Review 63:Very roomy, nicely designed rooms - more like a small apt. than a motel room. - 60's style. Kitchen,floor and bed clean. No carpets. Able to walk - coffee shops, take out,and grocery store near by. Summer time - beach not far away. Flat streets for walking as hip replaced.

Review 64:Had difficulty figuring out how to use the remote for TV - instructions would help. Although it didn't affect me, the pool was under reconstruction.

Review 65:The location was excellent - the venue I was attending was only a few blocks away. A full sized kitchen is great for longer stays. Everything was clean and comfortable.

Review 66:Thos motel is the perfect little hideaway. Close to everything, wonderful staff, clean, good sized pool and a great price! It's a little out dated but is good value. I will defenetly be coming back!

Review 67:A bit dated, no dish brush or cloth to clean and dry dishes even though there would be a charge for leaving dirty dishes in the room

Review 68:Great location, amazing and helpful staff, complimentary parking

Review 69:Pool was being renoed as well as the hot tub. Did not like the tub shower combo .Was difficult to get into and out of...and narrow space between the tub and toilet...

Review 70:Staff was very friendly. Good location, lots to do and see. Quiet. Will stay again..

Review 71:I didn't sleep very well that night. It was not Bowmont's fault, apparently. If I have to say something about it, maybe the king size bed was way too big for me:)

Review 72:I traveled alone and got there pretty late. The staff was very efficient and i got my room key just in a minute. The kitchennette was cute, with a coffee maker, a toaster and a microwave. The shower was newly renovated which was very clean and spacious.

Review 73:I like the location the staff everything was close by the swimming pool that everything was close by we had a great time here and we will come back again for sure

Review 74:Some of the walls felt a bit thin when the neighbours were noisy.

Review 75:Amazing staff, wonderful facilities, very clean and well maintained. Really great place all in all. I would go back again!

Review 76:There are a lot of children at this motel so if you want something quieter, I would go somewhere else. Our neighbours had clothes strewn all over the balcony in front of our room, shoes cluttering the walkway and they took our chairs. Not much the hotel can do about disrespectful neighbours. We spent most of our time away from the motel to avoid them and the incessant screaming

Review 77:The location of this motel was great. Although dated, it was clean. Pool was great!

Review 78:If I had known in advance, I would have requested a non-smoking room. Also bring your own pillows if you like more generous pillows

Review 79:The staff were very friendly and welcoming from the get-go. Nice pool. A very convenient location. Towels were changed daily so that was nice. It was great that they had free wifi.

Review 80:The service is great! Friendly and warming! The pool is nice and it's in prime location! I'll stay here again for sure! <3 thank you for the lovely stay :)

Review 81:Bathroom is a little small but this is an old property, having said that, everything is well maintained and we can still recommend this motel.

Review 82:Comfortable bed new flooring and carpets. Air conditioning essential and worked well. Clean, newer barbecue for a toonie. Excellent welcoming staff.

Review 83:The beds were horrible, we woke up sore every morning. The room had a gross old musty smell. The hotel was very loud. Anytime a kid went running by outside the whole room shook. You could hear the other guests talking and moving around in there rooms loud enough like they were in ours. Everything in the room was very outdated and not in a cool retro way.

Review 84:Location was great, pool area was nice, staff was very friendly.

Review 85:Room - air conditioning did not work properly, very outdated furniture, WiFi worked only in the kitchen, odour, needs a major renovation

Review 86:Last action and staff

Review 87:Bed unconfortable Wi-fi spotty Hot tub not always hot When issues brought to management they were not corrected Kind daughter (?) was very helpful and did her best to accommodate but wifi still not fixed Kids allowed in hot tub area when sign said no kids allowed

Review 88:Convenient location for walking to beach and canal Good amenities like pool and hot tub Clean Very handy ac power air pump available for use. Great for inflating boats before walking to canal.

Review 89:Went for a 5 day stay. Rooms were clean and staff was friendly. Geat place if you have small children pool and play area great. BBQ available for all to use. Just needs some updates.

Review 90:Found it a little expensive compared to other places we stayed on our road trip

Review 91:Very pleasant and helpful staff Large room with all needed for a short stay. On-site laundry very useful. We could have walked to the lake and plenty of restaurants nearby but it was 37C so drove but parking no problem

Review 92:For us, we found the high density foam bed on or king very hard and slept quite poorly the whole time unfortunately. Management did try hard to help with a mattress topper but it didn't help us unfortunately. There was no microwave so in room meals were a bit of a challenge.

Review 93:The room was very spacious and airy. We never had the ac on while we were in the room and only left the windows open instead despite the 30c+ daytime temps. Staff and management were very friendly, efficient and helpful!

Review 94:The kitchen could use more supplies, i.e., serving bowls, dish towels, cooking sheets.

Review 95:Perfect location, and hosts/staff were very friendly, helpful and cheerful. We come to Penticton often and were very pleasantly surprised at our "find"! The added plus was having a good-sized kitchen.

Review 96:Staff was wonderful and accommodating. They allowed us a late check out after my husbands bike race so I didn't have to load the car alone. Great pool too! My kids could have stayed in there all day.

Review 97:Need more pillows on the bed to sleep. Hair dryers were not in all rooms. Would like to see the little table and 2 chairs in the room rather than the big couch. Just a preference ;)

Review 98:Great location. Staff was fantastic! Close to all things we were interested in. Great find. :)

Review 99:Deadbolt in the room was very hard to unlock, was afraid we were stuck. Had to slam door to ensure it was closed.

Review 100:Was very clean, friendly staff, pool toys and towels provided, very family friendly, great location close to loco landing and beach but still quiet.

Review 101:Bathroom did not have a fan. It was removed and not replaced. Need wine glasses in the kitchen. And perhaps some plastic cups so that we can take drinks out to picnic area.

Review 102:I loved that it had the amenities of pool, picnic area, BBQ area, flat screen TV in room. And the bed was very comfortable. Location was close to convention center. Loved having that little patio at the end of the building, great place to relax after work as it was shaded.

Review 103:The hot tub and location

Review 104:Super nice staff, superb location. The outdoor kitchen area was great and the pool and hot tub were both very clean and really nice.
