Room price was very good. I do feel the restaurant we quite high priced however. 2 medium priced glasses of wine, a steak meal with no sides, salads, deserts, with tip $66. For business travelers, that is rather high for one person. Just a comment. The food was good.
"Best western Kelowna"Reviewed by jim H of "Breckenridge, CO" on Feb 28, 2012
Had a suite with a decent kitchen one night each end of a week long ski trip in the area. Room was very clean, comfortable. The included breakfast was good (which means better than the average included meal). Located right across the street from a Safeway and lots of restaurants and other shops within alking distance. 10 minute drive to the airport.

This hotel could be really amazing if it was updated in more restful current colours. Too much beige and brown everywhere. A bit stuck in the 70s/80s. Fairly depressing bedrooms even if comfortable and pleasant otherwise. Nice TVs. The restaurant could use better lighting than the fluorescent fixtures over each table - a bit creepy actually. Halogen fixtures would create nice ambience and be more comfortable to sit under.

"THIS PLACE IS A DUMP"
if you are not from a third world country this place should have no stars. hotel is old and it showes everywhere rooms very small 10x20 bath 5x5 threadbare conforters on beds no king beds only 2 queens have to crawl over beds to move around room. no electrical outlets so have fun pluging anyting in like your laptop check in people rude and did not care […] about anything that should have been fixed neighborhood sucks in a old business district NEVER EVER STAY HERE NO MATTER THE PRICE IT IS NOT WORTH IT Read more
"noisy"
Hard beds, thin walls and traffic noise through the windows. won't stay there again.
obviously had been recently renovated. check in was quick and easy. room was clean, bed was comfy. would recommend to anyone who need decent accomodation at a decent price. will use again
Very clean and nicely renovated rooms. The male owner/manager was very friendly and appreciative of our business. He apologized for construction and not having a breakfast available. He was very cordial and didn't act at all inconvenienced despite our late arrival. An excellent value. Strongly recommend.
"Old and it shows"
The place was a dump from the outside and not much better inside, it was still under construction and there were piles of toilets and other garbage in the parking lot, a small dirty staircase to the upper units and even though they were renovated the room was not nice at all. The room was clean but you could tell the renovation was only a paint job, […] some new carpet, and some cheap updates in the bathroom. oh and great for hygiene the sink was not in the bathroom it was it the main room. The only reason I checked in at all was my work was arranging the hotels on my trip but I did not spend the night here. I'm not picky about hotels but I find it amazing that people would pay to stay there Read more
"Kelowna Howard Johnson's"
Beware, it smells bad, has no hot water, the tv is fuzzy and it is undergoing poor quality renovations.
"When price counts a lot"
This hotel is nothing fancy and somewhat noisey due to thin walls and location along a busy highway. But the proprieters are nice enough and the price very reasonable.
We had a pleasant stay, room was extremaly clean, beautiful white towels, nice clean bedding, clean fridge microwave, new tv, couldn't ask for more. Quiet at the night time, great breakfast good coffee. We will definately come again.

Beds were hard as rocks shower head like needles noisy fridge
"Hi way noise"
I had allways stayed in the side rooms, this time I was on the hi way, in the front. We didn't get much sleep. This was my third and last stay.
The only complaint was the remotes for the TV did not work.
"Worth more than the cost"
Very affordable, very clean, very easy to find.
"howard johnsons kelowna"
Nice manager,very helpful and kind, I was pleasantly surprised at how clean the hotel was for the price...will stay again..
"Stay at Howard Johnson, Kelowna"
The motel was clean and tidy. We were pleased with the continental breakfast being personally attended by the Owner/Manager. The accommodation was satisfactory and the price was right, though the room lacked some of the amenities of other larger hotels. Overall we were quite satisfied.
"Howard Johnson Kelowna"
Recently renovated (exterior is still being worked on) rooms are practical and comfortable.
"My stay at the Howard Johnson in Kelowna"
I was pleasantly suprised at the breakfast selections. Waffles (fresh made), cereals, mini brownies and cinnamon buns. There was the choice of juice, milk and coffee for drinks as well. The room was clean and fresh. The staff were friendly and helpful. I would recommend this hotel to anyone and will stay there again next time I am in Kelowna.
"Howard Johnson- in Kelowna"
Overall not impressed. There was a mix up about our dog. We had an arguement with the hotel manager about our dog, because the paperwork did not get to him from Hotels.ca saying we had a dog. I had never booked a hotel before and did not know the rules. He was going to charge us 200 to clean the room. The room was small and dingee, the lamp did not […] work, the tv remote did not work. It was a long walk to stores. I would not stay there again. There was one bed for the four of us (two children and two adults). No elevator, we were on the second floor. Read more
"Kelowna Hotel"
The cook for morning breakfasts was courteous and competent and made wonderful waffels. The room was comfortable and well made up. I felt very rested after each of the two nights' sleep.
"Howard Johnson Kelowna"
Very friendly service, nice clean quiet rooms, good value. I would recommend this to someone who wants to save money and have a nice stay.
"The Howard Johnson motel in Kelowna - clean rooms"
Stayed at the Kelowna Howard Johnson after flying back from Vegas. When we arrived we were greeted by a very friendly young lady. The room was small, but very clean. The only problem was accessing the motel when heading southbound on HWY 97. If you are looking for a place to spend a night I would reccomend the Howard Johnson. It's clean, the staff are […] friendly and there is a continental breakfast. Read more
"HoJo Kelowna"
Excellent price for decent room. Friendly service, good breakfast, strong wifi and location close to Kelowna's attractions.
The hotel had just been renovated therefore it was "just like new"; also, very good value.
very nice managers and a very nice continental breakfast - nicely updated rooms
"Clean, friendly and affordable hotel."
When I read a couple of negative comments from others, I was a little nervous to make the reservation! But because it was affordable and not far to downtown so took a chance. When got there, I was greet by the owner and his staff, I asked for a quite room, he gave me the one at the back of the hotel. When I got inside my room, I couldn't believe how […] clean, nice it was! The bathroom was very nice and clean, the king size bed, very secure room...they clean the room every day and guess what breakfast was included. I thought it was a great deal ! I definitely recommend my family and friends to stay at this hotel! I know sheer to stay next time I go to Kelowna! I thank the owner and his staffs for their hostability, and a great stay! Read more

"Ho Jo in Kelowna BC-Close to all amenities."
The hotel was in the process of being renovated, but was in good condition. I would like to see a pool be put in evevntually that would be an added bonus. Over all the stay was good, friendly staff, and the air contioning was a life saver!
Expected more from a HoJo quality property. It was more like a standard motel although some improvements were evidently in process. eg bathroom was new.

"Needs some more upgrades"
Our stay wasn't horrible, but it wasn't the best either. Our room had minimal updates (only the tub, toilet, and sink had been renovated) Otherwise it was like stepping back into 1989. (If you really, really, enjoy peach and hunter green, this is the place for you.) Also, soundproofing was a big problem. I could hear everything that went on in our neighbours […] room, even with earplugs. The staff were pleasant enough though, and the continental breakfast was a nice surprise. I'd probably only return if the above issues were fixed. Otherwise I suggest trying other hotels in Kelowna. Read more

"HJ in Kelowna BC"
We stayed at the Howard Johnson in Kelowna. Although renovations were in progress there was really no inconvenience to guests. The room was clean and very comfortable. In the mornings there was a good breakfast provided. The staff were friendly and helpful. I would not hesitate to stay there again on my next visit to Kelowna.
"Joward Johnsons Kelowna"
We stayed there on two different nights in the last week. The rooms have been recently renovated to quite high quality (marble/granite tiles at entry and in bathroom, new carpet). The rooms were lovely and quite comfortable. However the breakfast room is quite small. Perhaps if they started breakfast earlier it would help with the congestion
"Friendly staff"
The hotel is getting remodelled right now. Our room had a beautiful new bathroom completely done in tile. The room was not large but it had everything you need small fridge and microwave. The breakfast room is not large but the woman in it making the waffles is great. Will stay here again.
"Howard Johnson in Kelowna, B.C."
The accommodation was basic. Air conditioner in room was very loud. The room had questionable carpet stains. Bathroom was very clean. Continental breakfast was nothing special - not many options. Waffels where made, but very slow service. Had to wait 35 minutes for one waffel. Being in Kelowna, B.C. it would have been nice if at least some fruit was […] served along with the waffels. The only fruit option was Bananas. Coffee was good. Overall value for the cost was slightly below average. Read more
"HoJo's...Kelowna"
the staff were friendly and helpful and the rooms were comfortable and spotlessly clean. Easy to use free WiFi, and good breakfast . The grounds need a bit of grooming, but otherwise very good value. No complaints.
"howard jhonson"
nice and well-located motel. clean and relatively comfortable. there are a number of in-attentions by the management to make this motel an excellent place to stay. the breakfast room is simply too small to accommodate all the guests. too crowded and too busy, even though the foods were fresh and tasty. the price paid for the room was very reasonable. […] will stay again if we come back to this part of canada from california usa svryden Read more

"nice updating"
We stayed 2 nights and were impressed with the updating in the room - nice tile & very clean. The first night we were on the highway side with one of those ajoining room doors between us and some noisy girls so I heard them much of the night. The next day I asked to be relocated and the manager was quick to accommodate us. We moved to a spacious room […] in the back corner and never heard a peep from anyone. Great value with breakfast included. Read more
"Hojo kelowna"
The place is being reovated but the interior appears to be finished. The room was fine. The exterior is old style but it looks as they are working on it. Good price for Kelowna and includes breakfast.
"Specious Rooms"
The rooms were specious with king bad which I prefer. The condition of the hotel is good and looks it has under gone some repairs, specially the wash rooms. The continental breakfast which is inclusive was good
"Howard Johnson Kelowna"
the room was hot, smelly and noisy. It was expensive for what it was. The staff were nice.
"Very Very clean"
Although the outside has a bit to be desired the rooms are all remodelled and new. The rooms were very clean with fridge microwave ---could have been a coffee machine there for those of us that need that in the morning but they had it in the lobby.
found that this hotel was a pleasant surprise. It was quiet ,considering I was on the highway side. the rooms had been resently updated. No coffee maker in the room though. I didnt have the breakfast offered so i cant coment . close to all shopping and major golf courses . Friendly front desk staff. would stay here again
"Very comfortable"
We were a little unsettled when we saw that they were under renovation, but the room were givrn was completely updated and very clean and comfortable. We had no complaints and would be very happy to stay there again this year. Thank you Jim and Terri
"new interior"
All new inside the outside does not do it justice breakfast very nice including freshly made waffles.
"howard johnson/kelowna b.c."
