Myself and some girlfriends stayed at Empire Motel and were pleasantly surprised with how clean the rooms and the pool/bbq area were. It’s a 5 minute walk to the beach and in a great spot by Skaha. We will definitely stay again!

This hotel is extremely well appointed and convenient to the area. We were impressed buy the amenities available outside where there’s a large pool, numerous lounge chairs, picnic tables and multiple BBQ’s that would make this an excellent venue for a family reunion. The manager is extremely professional and friendly. We would definitely recommend this hotel.
