“Home away from home - A++++”

We stayed in one of the pet friendly suites with a kitchen, living area, queen bedroom and 3 piece bathroom. The general floorplan of the suite is practical... More

When business or pleasure takes us to Castlegar, David and I always choose to stay at the Flamingo. We find Debra and Frank very friendly and welcoming and the rooms clean, quiet and cozy. As an added bonus every room has one of Debra's gorgeous handmade quilts on the bed and if you are in to quilting yourself then Deb... More

“Why a chain hotel?”

I can't understand why you'd book at a chain hotel when you've got a great option like the Flamingo. This motel was very clean, the owner super friendly and the service fantastic. The units featured separate bedrooms, well supplied kitchens, hand-made quilts and a reasonable rate. More

My father and I have been staying here for years. Frank and Debra are incredibly friendly, the rooms are very clean, well-equipped, and the in-room internet access is always appreciated. The Flamingo also has the perks of being very well-located, with restaurants and a grocery store nearby for food, as well as a movie theatre in walking distance. We'll try... More
