Tripadvisor says the #1 hotel is Ramada, so I'm not keeping my hopes up.
Any help in this regard appreciated.
Penticton hasn't seen a Sheraton in the 19 years I've been here. The Penticton Lakeside Resort used to be a Coast, may moons ago. It is a lakefron property, couple of restaurants, great bar/pub/patio, casino, meeting rooms, walking distance to downtown.
The Ramada in Penticton is like no other Ramada I have seen anywhere. Very very nice. Adjacent to golf course, very good pub on property, huge grounds/greenspace/pool, ideal for families as well as others. Walk to beach, Tim Hortons (one of four), River Channel bike/walking path.
I know the owners of both properties. In both cases, the owners are on the respective properties each day and take a great deal of pride in their product. It shows.
