This is a laid-back, friendly resort that enjoys spectacular views of Kootenay Lake, and is home to a consistently delicious restaurant with an exceptional patio. Easily the most comfortable motel lodge I have ever experienced. Room decor is fresh and clean. My suite, which was at the center of the lodge, beneath the patio, and next to the housekeeping room, was nevertheless very quiet and comfortable. The entire suite was very clean. The bedding and mattress were very comfortable..The AC in the living area was very effective, enough to cool the adjacent bedroom. Low security lights surround the lodge, so it felt very safe, even during night walks. (Those on longer stays might consider bringing a blackout curtain if you need a very dark bedroom.) To my dog's great joy, the resort grounds include at least two acres of manicured lawns, pretty flower beds, a great tree house, a well maintained playground, and a covered patio with plush deck furniture and BBQ. Hotel management is extraordinary. They will care for you every moment of your stay, as well as before, and after! I felt like I was staying with good friends. I would highly recommend Kokanee Glacier Resort for a stay of any duration.. Families, couples, solo travelers, pet owners--come one and all.
Everything was fabulous. I will definitely return.

The owners of this property are totally amazing,wonderful people. Very accomodating. The property was fantastic, extremely clean, and the restaurant on site exquisitely delicious. We are definitely coming back Soon ...:)
Absolutely nothing, This was such a pleasurable place to stay. Great environment ! I guess maybe one thing ......The restaurant is only open for lunch and dinner, (closed Sunday's and Monday's)....... If this restaurant was open 7 days a week and serving Breakfast as well, I would never want to leave..... Over the top Delicious food ....:)

Great location, great amenities great kitchenette with fridge/freezer, stove, microwave etc. Nice, quiet, & very clean. Air-conditioner worked great. Less than 15mins from Nelson. 30 mins to Ainsworth hot springs & beach spots close by. I came to kayak & paddleboard & this place was perfect. I would definitely come back!
I could've used a hairdryer as i didn't bring one, but to be fair, I'm sure they would've given me 1 if I'd asked. The bed wasn't the comfiest, but i still slept fine.

We stayed in room 201, which overlooks the lake. The view was beautiful and we spent time on the balcony enjoying the sunshine. It is convenient to downtown, just a short drive away. Two bedrooms and a kitchenette stocked with everything we needed. We didn’t cook there but could have. The beds were comfortable. The highway is very close by but it was never noisy at night. We slept well. We would definitely stay there again especially if we could get that room.
We would have eaten at the restaurant that adjoins the lobby but it was quite expensive. The restaurant is beautiful and the food may have been excellent but it was out of our price range.

The hotel room was very clean and totally renovated with a small kitchen area, sitting area and separate bedroom. The hotel has a wonderful area outside to sit and look out over the lake. The owner was very friendly and wanted to make sure we were happy with our stay. It is a very well taken care of hotel.
Nothing to complain about.

Awesome value for money. Great views. Really nice rooms with ample space. Perfect for families to stay with kids. We had a great stay.
We had a great stay, but there are a few small things that would've made our stay even better. It would be great to have dish soap in the room for guests, in addition to the dishwasher packs that were provided. Maybe also provide a step stool for guests to get to the top shelves where the pots were located as we had to pull a chair over to reach them. Please make sure to take a duster to every corner when cleaning the rooms as there were a few spider webs hiding out. It would be great to have hooks on the wall beside the entry door to hang jackets and coats. More that one hook in the bathroom for towels would be better too. Overall though, a great place to stay and I would recommend.

Newly renovated with full kitchen. Bed in bedroom comfortable, full bathroom and nice shower.
Changed expected price from March booking. Perhaps did not get loyalty Booking discount but ended up paying $100. more for stay. Possibly the newly renovated was more but not told. Price paid was 2 bedroom price and we just had one. ( not taxes) Pull- out bed not very comfortable but adequate for one. Auto entrance and exit poorly designed. Needs to be changed especially for restaurant usage.

A super location about 10 minutes away from downtown Nelson. Great views across the lake, rooms have nice updates and layout. Stove, fridge, microwave, toaster and dishwasher. Quiet smoking area near room with a nice view of the lake (with a friendly local cat that likes pats).
The kitchen could have used a smaller cooking pot (only 1 larger one found, maybe a baking tray) but generally well equipped. Unfortunately there was no lake access available to hotel guests (families might be disappointed).

The location was great- quiet, peaceful, well cared for and yet a short drive from the main Hub of Nelson. The manager was so kind, sweet and gracious. The beds were so comfy and the rooms were clean with air conditioning and a full kitchenette. Perfect for what we needed and when in the area will definitely stay again.

Very clean, nice room. She gave us an upgraded room but we just needed a 8 hour sleep. Beautiful surroundings on the water.
200 a night is a little more than I would like to pay. We just needed a clean bed and shower.
