The location of the Empire Motel was great, just a 2 minute walk to the beach. The room was spotless and the bed was comfortable. The pool and courtyard were really nice and the use of the barbecued and tables in the shade of gazebos was very convenient. The owner (Estelle, I think) was so nice, we really appreciated her cleaning a room right away so that we could check in early after a 9 hour drive. We will definitely stay here again the next time we’re in Penticton.

Perfect location for us being south of town, walking distance to Skaha Lake and also great for short drive to the Southern Okanagan’s vineyards and orchards. Welcoming hosts took care of all of our needs and made us feel at home. Fabulous pool and recreational areas for guests

We stayed at the Empire Hotel on our mother/daughter getaway and it was absolutely wonderful!! Estelle is so great and you feel like you are at a home away from home with her. Cleanliness is super important to me and everything was soooo clean! They even do a room refresh daily which was so nice to come back to after a day at the beach. The beds were comfy (I did bring extra comforter but they probably have if you ask for more blankets) The courtyard is also such a great bonus! The pool is well kept with lots of nice lounge chairs and umbrellas, ping pong table which was so fun, and few gazebos with tables for having outdoor meals and quite a few nice big bbqs which we used to cook up some delicious steaks! *They provide tongs and bbq brush just byob utensils and dishes. This is the perfect spot for families! Cooking while they swim and run around the grassy area. Estelle has some beautiful flower gardens too- it’s just such a charming little area! They provide pool towels too. The shower is great also- and there is a tub in case you want a soak. Something extra we loved is the wood hooks all around the room! You can hang so many things on so it frees up so much floor space - what a great idea! We are use to staying in big hotel chains but the Empire motel has changed us- we 100% recommend and WILL be back!!

We were very pleased with our stay at Empire Motel. The room was extremely clean, and was equipped with everything we needed. Plus they have daily housekeeping , which is not common for motels. Used towels were replaced and garbage was emptied each day. Estelle (owner) was so friendly and always available. We would definitely stay here again!

We had a great experience at Empire Motel. The room was very clean and well maintained. The kitchenette was very helpful and includes everithing you need, from towels to pots and pans. We really enjoyed the heated pool and took advantage of the bbq area.
The pillows were a bit too tall and hard for our taste, however, I'm sure they would've replace them if we would've asked.
