Very nice hotel, brand new or renovated, nothing worn out, very large room with kitchenette, sink, microwave, fridge, kettle. Large indoor pool, everything perfect actually. But what annoyed us: we had booked months in advance, namely a room with 2 queen beds, but they said at the reception that the hotel was fully booked and therefore there is only 1 room with a king size bed. Of course, a king bed is still better than a queen bed, but 2 queens are even better. Also, the parking lot was almost empty and at breakfast we were almost alone. That clearly contradicts the statement from the reception the day before. Breakfast was ok

Hotel was nice e looking and clean, staff were friendly. Rooms were kept clean. Breakfast was typical but done well and tasted good.
Not hotel issue but only issue is there was only 1 cab driver and hard to get a hold of. Plan airport to hotel trips accordingly. Hotel staff were good at answering cab questions.
Laughing Loon resteraunt next door was excellent as well.

My wife and I stayed at the hotel with our dog on our drive through BC. We picked it because it was pet friendly. The employee who checked us in was very nice. Our room was on the first floor with a second door to the outside in the back of the room which was very convenient to let our dog out and also bring in and out our luggage. The room had two queen beds and a bar sink. Wifi was fast. I thought the hotel was very well kept. The room included a continental breakfast, which had the typical options. The hotel is conveniently located along the highway as you come in from the south with a gas station down the block. If I am in the area, I will stay here again.

We very often choose Best Western hotel brand over others.

This one was disappointing.

When we checked in we were offered our “gift” because of our platinum membership which was 2 Bottles of water which was good. Once arriving in our room we found that they had unplugged our fridge so it was warm. No problem we pulled it out & plugged it in to cool our water.

There was no glass ware in the hotel room only plastic cups.

In the morning we went downstairs for the continental breakfast and was pleasantly surprised that there was hot options like eggs, sausages, hash browns and a waffle iron. However there was no proper utensils only the flimsiest plastic cutlery & paper plates. Have you ever tried eating a fresh crispy waffle with a flimsy fork & knife? Well it’s not easy or productive. Next I grabbed a cup of orange juice from the machine only to find that it wasn’t real OJ. It was some type powdered juice like tang, which would have been awesome if I was 10 but I’m not. The only real dishware was the coffee cups.

I grew up in WL so I was able to wrangle up some silverware from family for my next mornings breakfast.

Its wind down time before bed so we wanted to watch TV. So in order to even watch TV you need to use 2 remotes. 1 remotes 1 button, 2nd remote 2nd button and back to remote 1 for 3rd button just access the TV guide. But volume & guide we’re on opposing remotes. I tried to login to one of my streaming services and that was not available. I just so happened to have the cord in my travel bag to be able to “cast” the streaming onto the TV but since it’s old technology it was only happenstance that I had the cord still in my travel bag. However there was no instructions to cast my streaming service, I just had to fumble my way through.

Checkout morning arrives and we go to breakfast and go to pack our room only to discover they had checked us out of our room at 8 am and our key card stopped working because they checked us out long before check out time.

So you take what you want from this honest review, but personally I felt it was all very cheap & cheesy.

This isn’t a budget hotel chain.

This was one of the nicest Best Westerns we have stayed. We have a dog and our 'pet friendly' room was quiet and clean and we had access to an additional door in our room that opened up to a hillside - perfect to exercise our pet without having to walk aways away! AND we had the best sleep ever!

This place is horrible, systemic racism is very real at this hotel. I would not recommend this hotel to my worst enemy, much less a friend. They give you a boiled egg, muffin, and fruit in a bag for breakfast. If you don't stand in their circles they yell at you. If you make any noise at all in the hotel, they yell at you. You have to clear everything that you bring into their hotel to see if you can have the items in your room. I will never stay here ever again.

I have always felt that when you need to stay in hotels you should feel not only welcome but valued. the Williams Lake Best Western has set a very high bar for any other hotel. We have over the years stayed in pretty much all the hotels until this Best Western opened. We wont say anywhere else now. this is a direct result of the service standards set by management and the staff.

We arrived in the evening, exhausted from a very long drive. Checking in was easy and luggage carts were available (which is not always the case in some hotels). We were looking for something simple, yet nourishing to eat and the staff recommended The Laughing Loon next door. We ordered take out and ate in our hotel rooms (and the food was excellent). The rooms were very clean and the beds so comfortable that we fell asleep right away. We would return to this hotel if our travels take us through Williams Lake again.
