Balcomo Hotel: A Scenic Stay in Penticton with Comfort and Charm
Our Stay at Balcomo Hotel in Penticton, BC: A Perfect Blend of Comfort and Scenic Views
Nestled in the heart of Penticton, BC, the recently renovated Balcomo Hotel provided a serene retreat during my latest stay. With its prime location near Lake Okanagan and surrounded by four-season activities, this hotel makes for a perfect getaway whether you're in town for outdoor adventures, shopping, or simply unwinding.
First Impressions: Warm Welcome and Modern Comforts
Upon arrival, I was impressed by the hotel's sleek and modern look, particularly in the newly renovated tower where we stayed. The check-in process was smooth, and the friendly staff made sure to provide a welcoming experience. One standout detail was the office staff calling to check in with us after we settled in, ensuring that everything in the room met our expectations.
Our room was spacious, boasting a beautiful view of the golf course next door. The soft, overstuffed pillows
and plush bedding made it feel like a luxurious escape from the daily grind. The bathroom was fully accessible, catering perfectly to all guests. The overall atmosphere of the room was tranquil, with tasteful décor and amenities like a flat-screen TV, mini-refrigerator, and complimentary Wi-Fi, adding to the convenience.
Location, Location, Location
One of the most attractive features of the Balcomo Hotel is its unbeatable location. The Penticton Golf and Country Club is practically next door, and for those who love skiing, Apex Mountain Resort is just a short drive away. I couldn’t help but imagine all the fun winter activities to come when we return in the new year. For those interested in shopping, Penticton's charming boutiques and shops are nearby, offering unique finds and local gems.
Looking Ahead: A Return Visit Awaits
Although the pool and hot tub were under renovation during our visit, we’re eagerly looking forward to staying again next year when the renovations are complete. I can already imagine a relaxing soak in the hot tub while taking in the mountain views after a day of exploring the picturesque Okanagan region.
Balcomo Hotel managed to balance comfort, friendly service, and an ideal location perfectly. From the tranquil golf course views to the soft, comfy beds, it was the perfect escape. Whether you’re planning a summer hike, a day on the beach, or a winter skiing adventure, Balcomo offers a peaceful haven with everything you need to recharge.
I can't wait to return!
