Clean room but could use a deep clean. Some white spray marks on the bathroom door and cracks/dings in the drywall baseboard height. No bathtub only shower and toilet required a 20sec hold down on the handle to flush. Beds were very comfortable and clean. Staff were great.

The room was not in the actual hotel, it was separate like the old motel style. We were very disappointed in our room. I have a bad knee, and we had to do stairs. Qw were told that because we booked on line, they put us in thecold part. Ridiculous. We wont stay here anymore.

From Julie at the front desk, to Jen in the restaurant, we found Salmon Arm Hilltop to be a really enjoyable stay. The place was tip top shape, and everyone did their utmost to make us feel welcome and totally cared for. We wouldn't hesitate to stay there again. They were so kind, friendly, and just really lovely people. Our room was huge, and we sure appreciated the kitchenette with Keurig. It was totally clean and the food downstairs was delicious. We got both breakfast and dinner. Jen was adorable and so much fun! It was off season so much slower than usual and we caught nice weather for a mini vacay just to get away. You can trust that Hilltop is a solid option. Not a single complaint. Only positive things to say.

The pool was the only saving grace of this property. The room and furnishings were dated, and the bed was uncomfortable. In the evening if the window was open the truck traffic outside was too loud for sleeping, and with the window closed the AC was so loud it felt like a truck was in the room. Apparently we were in the “old wing”… and it definitely showed.
