Recreation Inn and Suites Reviews

Everything was fine until the breakfast room had limited food to offer, if you wanted more food (hard-boiled eggs )the breakfast attention there would tell you to "save some for other people" If adjusted the toaster settings ( not everyone likes burn toast ) she would get mad with customers, and start taking away the fruit at the counter. On Wednesday, breakfast time with no coffee / no hot water to serve to the customers have to get the front desk attendant for coffee cause no breakfast attendant there. Asked them to make the beds and they only made 2 beds, not all 3 beds. Ended up leaving that inn hotel earlier than I reserved days. Change to another hotel instead. Have to say the front desk attendants are very helpful, thank you.

I stayed at Recreation Inn during my recent trip to Kelowna, and overall, it was a decent experience for the price. The standout for me was the Saturday breakfast – simple but on point. It was served buffet-style with a good mix of egg muffins, fruit, bread, and juice. Everything was fresh and well-prepared, making for a nice start to the day. The room itself was clean and had all the basic amenities I needed, but I have to admit, the condition of the room felt quite dated. The furniture and decor could really use an upgrade, and there was an unpleasant musty odor in the room that lingered throughout my stay, which definitely affected my comfort. The staff were polite and helpful, and the check-in process was smooth. The location is convenient, close to some restaurants and not far from the lake, which was a bonus. If you’re looking for a basic place to crash for a night or two and don’t mind a bit of an older vibe, it could work. But if you’re sensitive to smell or looking for something modern and more refreshed, this might not be the best fit.

Excellent spot in Kelowna, have stayed in many hotels/motels there as well as lived there, nice area close to everything … this has a private courtyard, picnic tables, bbq, pool, games outside which are right there, perfect for families, super friendly people who run the place, nobody harrrasing you when you have a smoke outside (even tho they have the usual rules), direct room access outside, easy for loading/unloading luggage, super nice renovated suites with big screen tv, large kitchen, meeting table, outside patio on each suite, you can’t get any better than this and it’s a fraction of the price of the mainstream hotels where you need to take an elevator, walk a mile to go outside for a smoke and feel like a bird in a cage …. and have no patio access.  This is a hidden gem in Kelowna, it’s the best hotel/motel for one of the lowest prices in the city.  I lived here for years, and stayed in most of them since I’m travelling here for business every 3 weeks. 5 stars …. You will be shocked how cool this place is … You are welcome!

The room was extremely clean and a pleasant note from the cleaner was written on the top page of the room provided stationary pad ( a very nice and welcoming touch). Dinner across the road at Baxters is well worth mentioning. (Excellent!!)

Nice customer service

Excellent hotel at great location. Staff were friendly. Room was nice and clean. They upgraded us for free to a room with kitchen. Sandra at front desk was friendly and helpful. The hotel is perfect for the price with a lot of amenities including breakfast. They also have boardgames that you can barrow to play. Amazing experience.

Wonderful overnight stay while my husband and I were travelling through BC. We had a small issue with the cable TV but the staff was happy to help and figure it out. Would stay again. Thank you.

Clean and affordable! Must visit

Excellent service and very clean. Ideally located with an excellent Japanese Restaurant and Sports Bar across the road. Great value for money.

it’s not worthy for the price

Really great stop over spot.

The service staff are friendly. For the price of the hotel, there is nothing to complain about and the room was barely clean.

Traveling with friends, it was the first time to stay in a motel. Based on the booking price, I was a little worried before, but I was very satisfied with the hygiene, service and environment, especially the car could be parked at the door of the room without moving around.

Average food, convenient location
