The room was larger than expected. Had a great outdoor area (although closed for the season). Good parking even though shared had lots of room to park options. Had a large kitchen, nice interior with a bright vintage vibe better than other hotels and motels I have visited and found a great deal. Tv with Shaw, air conditioning worked great same with the heating. Provided nice shampoo, conditioner, and soaps not the standard low quality, with unique refreshing scents (took them all home).

Was hard to find our room in #103 turns out it was past the office along the outdoor patio past the pool and straight ahead along with numbers #106 or 105 - 102 so after a few to many times around the building we did reach our room.

I always stay at the Bowmont when in Penticton. It’s a perfect location , near the beach, easily accessible to get around from the motel, restaurants nearby, lots of activities nearby to attend and the view from the balconies is amazing. The rooms are comfortable, spacious and the kitchen is perfect for my needs.

I honestly have nothing bad to say about it. The motel is older, but still clean, tidy and affordable. I highly recommend it.

Had a great stay at the motel for my 4-day work-related visit. The best thing about the stay, other than the nice and comfy room (and nicer views!) was the availability of all basic utensils (mugs, plates, cutlery etc.) in the ensuite kitchenette -- so convenient! The room also included a sitting area I could use as desk and an air conditioner. Being at the conference all day, I loved the quiet and relaxed ambience and spending evening by the pool. The staff were extra nice and helpful and happy to give tips on bussing around the Okanagan valley.

my room's balcony door was stuck shut :/ but I didn't mind much; the windows had sliders for ventilation.

Great facilities like the BBQ area, overall the concept is really fun with the retro vibe. Close to the beach, quiet and the beds are comfortable.

The furniture is very worn out around the pool and in the common area. Pool is great but the concrete liner is coming off in big sharp chunks. The AC units in the rooms do a good job of cooling but they’re ancient and very, very loud at night. Going without AC is absolutely impossible in the Okanagan summer heat. Calls to the office weren’t returned, and we stayed 3 nights without ever getting any housekeeping service which was surprising. I would still stay again, but will come with lower expectations.

The building has good bones and lots of retro character. It is an excellent location for families to access the beach and recreational activities and for everyone to get to the waterfront. The pool looked nice but we never used it. The beds were comfortable and we slept well. The area was quiet.

The Bowmont requires lots of upgrading. There were stains in some furniture and the floors could be cleaner. One of our party didn’t like the musty smell in their room and another’s said there were burn marks in the bathroom floor.

The location is fantastic and we had a great room. The pool is a great spot to hang out and relax, the barbeque area is also a great addition. The room was well put together. The owners certainly want everyone to have a good time and will check in with you throughout your stay. They are lots of pool noodles and toys.

Witnessed on several occasions people not staying at the hotel walking in and spending time in the pool with their friends and family. Maybe a gate at the front entrance area to deter people

Location is perfect Pool is awesome Large area to have a gathering, with BBQs available Right across the street from locolanding amusement park 2 min walk to Okanagan lake. Bring a wagon and walk over there

There is no elevator and the stairs are a bit narrow. The ivy is taking over the one section of the stairs, which makes it a little trickier to navigate.

I love that its close to everything. Very family friendly, cozy and nice place. We love the pool too! Its our first time to stay & we’ll definitely come back.

Staff needs to pay more attention cleaning. Like the window sills, underneath the furnitures & the ceiling fan. It was so filthy thick of dirt & dust, we didn even try turning it on coz we are afraid that the dirt would be everywhere. The fridge handle & the sink faucet is loose too. Other than that, no other complaints.

Really liked the location and atmosphere. So close to all of our favorite things to do, great pool and just so inviting and fun in the courtyard. Staff were absolutely amazing to deal with. Extremely accommodating. Our whole family agrees this will be our go to spot each year! They have lovely BBQ area where people can come together. They had live music on the weekend and such great personal touches by following up.

Our room could have been a bit more clean.

The heated pool, covered table area with fire tables and BBQ’s. Staff were very attentive and ensured we had everything we need. Loved Rex the golden retriever…very friendly.

I wouldn’t say I didn’t like but the shower heads could be updated to have more of a shower vs a stream of water coming out.
