We stayed at the Invermere Best Western last night and then read the reviews today. I was shocked to read the reviews just now and found them to be the total opposite of what we experienced last night. Within the last three months this building has been totally renovated. Lush carpeting. Clean, clean non-smoking rooms. Wonderfully soft bed, fluffy pillows and towels. Strong WiFi connection. The showerhead was awesome and the courtesy shampoo smelled so good in my hair. The breakfast was first rate wth two waffle machines. Two great restaurants next door. Give this place a chance!

I travel often for business and I just had to post a review about how much I disliked this hotel. I have stayed in many Best Western facilities and although they are usually good, this one is definately the worst. The let downs were non stop and the non smoking room smelled like old manky smoke. I will never stay at this hotel again and would advise anyone else considering staying in Invermere to look elsewhere.

Let me make this very clear and honest: this IS A LOW-END HOTEL. I'm a practical vacationer with a wife and one toddler. We don't usually spend more than $150/night on a hotel, but when we do we expect clean, comfort, and good service. Here you get 0/3.

While it's true the service isn't awful, it's adequate at best. Not even close to excellent. The hotel is superbly placed at the end of Invermere's main drag and provides good access to downtown shopping and is within walking distance from the fabulous Kinsman beach. What more could you ask for?

How about a little comfort? At a glance the rooms appear to be adequately appointed, albeit severely dated and unbecoming. We found it very difficult to settle in though. The room just feels dusty, musky, and smokey. I am just getting over a cold and I actually feel sicker from being in this room! Despite being a non-smoking hotel, you'll smell lingering smoke that was saturated into the walls years ago, and now simply cannot be masked by any amount of sloppily applied paint. The yellow tinge shows through on the edges of the stipple, and splotches of white paint overlap onto the ceiling fixtures. On top of that, pure black liquid oozed out of the bathroom faucet here for about 3 seconds before the so-called clean water appeared. Siiiiick. Furthermore, the room doors provide virtually zero sound insulation. And I mean ZERO.

It's obvious that the owners see no need to rennovate the hotel. It fills to capacity every weekend of the summer. But there is a Super8 in town for about the same rates which is much cleaner, but is a good 6 minute drive from the beach. Location vs. cleanliness, you make choice! Next time mine will be cleanliness.

The Best Western hotel in Invermere was a complete disappointment. In fact, it was so poor that we left after only one night when we were originally booked to stay for five nights. Our room was old with shoddy repairs; the bathroom was tiny and poorly cleaned; the so-called high speed internet was slow; the hot tub was small, old, and outside in a small fenced off area; the air conditioner was so loud that we had to shut it off; and a fire alarm at 10 PM kept all guests outside for over an hour (the manager couldn’t determine why the fire alarm went off–he said that it does that from time to time and that it may go off again).

Consequently, we got only a few hours sleep and no sympathy at the front desk when we checked out (we were still expected to pay our full bill). We don’t recommend this hotel. We believe it is a poor example of a Best Western hotel.
