Hotels Near Pioneer Park Beach in Kamloops

This was the hotel chosen for us to stay at as part of the Rocky Mountaineer Train from Banff to Vancouver. I am aware that many are not happy with this hotel or it seems any hotel the Train uses as part of the trip for Kamaloops. I had read many reviews leading up to our trip, but we were actually pleasantly surprised. It was fine. We were already given a key to hotel room while on the train so check in was as simple as walking in and riding an elevator up to our floor. Room was close to elevator as had been requested due to mobility issue. Not an accessible Room but was roomy and comfortable. Very small bathroom. Not the best water pressure but Clean. I went down to request a bath mat. The young man at desk was super busy on phone and dealing with people but was polite and remained calm regardless of it all. He managed to find a bath chair as well as the mat. There is a restaurant right there in lobby and an area to sit outside. Bottles of water, pop, and a few snacks are available right next to front desk. It is my understanding there is alot of restaurants ect in the area but we did not venture out. We feel that we got a good night's sleep and that the front desk met our needs. I admit I never thought to take pictures of the room ect because nothing really stands out. But it was not in disrepair and we would recommend for a affordable choice of 1 night while in kamaloops.

Originally booked another hotel. Our order was cancelled due to a mistake by the agent. We were unable to check in after arriving at the hotel. We immediately contacted Ctrip customer service. The customer service was very serious and responsible, and immediately helped me understand the reason. We waited a long time to help us to book this hotel of the same class. The room difference was borne by Ctrip. We completed the check-in at BEST WESTERN PLUS within 5 minutes. Although there are some twists and turns, Ctrip still has a quick response, fast processing and Ctrip is reliable. Let's talk about this hotel. The facilities are good, two large beds, the room is large, about 30 square meters, and there is a sofa bed, a coffee table, desk, swivel chair, high cabinet, microwave, refrigerator and so on. There are shampoos, conditioners and shower gels. Like other foreign hotels, please bring your own toothbrush, toothbrush and slippers. On the first floor of the hotel there is a breakfast room, a standard buffet Western breakfast, bread, eggs, quiche, yogurt, bacon, drinks, etc. All guests have meals. The service staff was polite and friendly. There are parking lots in front of and behind the hotel, free parking. Turn right out of the hotel, cross the intersection, and opposite is Canada Superstore, which has everything in it and is very convenient. Next to the supermarket is WENDY, burger fries, and it tastes great. The hotel is very close to TRU, less than 10 minutes walk, it is the first choice for our parents who send their children to school. Will live here again.

This was our first stay at this hotel. We were pleasantly surprised about the age and condition of the hotel. It is reasonably new and has a large airy lobby with multiple sitting areas (which was empty when we were there). We stayed at the tail-end (we hope) of the pandemic for a chance to try out this hotel when it wasn't too busy or too expensive. There are two Holiday Inns in Kamloops, so watch the address. This is the one on the North Shore (across the Thompson River from downtown). There is another that is close to Hwy 1 & Hwy 5 on the way into town from Vancouver. There is a White Spot Restaurant on site where we ate dinner & breakfast. I will review it separately, but the food was excellent, prices were mid-range to a bit expensive (breakfast $15-$20, dinner $15-$30). Breakfast is NOT included with your room cost at this hotel. Both hotel and restaurant followed all COVID protocols in place at the time, even having sanitized pens available for check-in. The hotel and room were very clean. We were comfortable & and slept well. The only glitch was that on check-in, we were told that the accessible room we had reserved wasn't available. They had reassigned us to a regular room, thinking that we didn't really need the accessible room. When I asked, the cheaper rate of ”any room available when you check in” was granted, rather than the more expensive rate we had booked online to be able to choose a specific room. Another time, as well as booking online, I will phone the hotel to confirm that the room type we have booked is available. We found out that this hotel has only one accessible room, so don't expect to stay in it at a busy time unless you book well ahead. We were able to tour this room before we left town and found that it would meet our needs in the future. It has a very nice roll-in shower. Light switches are also lower than usual, but the rest of the room was very similar to the regular room with one king-sized bed that we were assigned. If it wasn't for the check-in glitch, I would give this hotel a rating of 5. We will likely stay again and would recommend it to visitors to Kamloops, especially if you want to be on the North Shore. It would be a very nice option not too far from the airport, if that is important to you.

The appearance of the hotel is very beautiful, the house is clean, I pay great attention to the wall tile gap of the bathroom and the edge of the basin sealant. There is no mold, there is no such a hotel in the early level, can be so clean, I am very satisfied. The facilities in the house are very good, the rooms are very spacious and the price is very high.

The check-in process was very convenient. The hotel facilities are all available. Give me a warm and comfortable environment in the cold winter. The location of the hotel is also very convenient. The service at the front desk is also very warm.

We very much enjoyed our stay at this accommodation. The price was very good and the place was very comfortable. The staff were amazing and very helpful. And the takeaway breakfast was excellent. My husband is still talking about the muffins! Great location. We visit Kamloops once a year. This will be our new 'go to' accommodation from now on!

We stayed at the Hampton Inn in Kamloops BC. Nice hotel with a good breakfast. Parking area seems a bit crowded with possibly a crime problem. All signs tell you to take everything out of your car and lock up. We came away with a flat tire, although we could have picked up the pair of scissors elsewhere. (yes scissors) The restaurant at the other end of the parking area was noisy but the food was good.

The hotel is on a hill, opposite McDonald's. The hotel has complete facilities and the rooms are quite large. Breakfast is a simple Western meal.

Read the negative reviews of this place with a grain of salt, and even more importantly look at the owner’s responses to them (hilarious & credible). My girlfriend and I stayed here for one night for a little getaway and we were not disappointed. The hotel itself is like one you might see in a movie; dated in a good way with a beautiful style and a cozy feel. We stayed in a river view king room, the bathroom was super clean and well functioning, the bed was comfortable, and the blackout curtains were a huge bonus for a great nights sleep. The front desk agent who checked us in was very accommodating and took the time to explain to us the how the hotel worked and where we could eat around town. There are animals present on the property including horses, llamas, goats and sheep, just don’t expect a guided animal feeding tour, pick some ****s or some fruit and feed them yourself (it’s super fun). The pool and hot tub were clean and towels are readily available. The restaurant is currently closed to due staffing issues, however the golf course right next door offers well priced surf and turf (like chicken tenders). Being right on the bank of the river is incredibly scenic and there are lots of places to roam to for a sit down with a view. We loved this property and would absolutely stay again, and the “turtle crossing” signage on the drive in are adorable (see attached photos).
