Great hospitality. The breakfast bar opened 15 minutes early so our crew could eat before heading to work.

Thermostat was not working so we were cold all night. The fan also wouldn't even shut off. TV wasn't working as well. When I told the front desk, it seemed to be too much trouble to do something about it as it was midnight. In the morning I was offered bonus points which also couldn't be given as there was no manager on duty. The worst Holiday inn I've ever stayed in. Stay away! What a joke for $200/night for a standard room.

A nice location. Modern, clean rooms and a fine breakfast. My only complaint is the toilets are very low

We were very impressed by this hotel. Stayed midweek in October 2025. The room rate was reasonable. The room was immaculate, water pressure in shower was very good, beds were comfortable and the staff were helpful and friendly. Good variety of breakfast items. Wil definitely stay here again.

Stayed at holiday inn express in Kamloops with 9 under baseball team. 15 rooms in total. Watching MLB playoffs in OT at around 9pm in a common lobby area that's also used for breakfast. Got approached by front desk saying tv had to be shut off due to noise. Noise was due to about 12 adults without alcohol as you weren't allowed that either. Alcohol I kind of get, I guess. The next afternoon after our games we were told we couldn't have the TV on at 3 in the afternoon because the common area is actually a breakfast area. I was given a business card with the name Narender Gurram as the manager and told to call him. Mr. Gurram was quite short and rude not wanting to listen to anything. He stipulated it was not a common area with a 55 inch tv hung on the wall but only a breakfast area. They also hid the remote like they were dealing with children. Family children went to use pool area that was poorly lit and very strong chlorine small effecting eyes and breathing. Reported to front desk and was met with little concern. Removed kids from pool. We have now heard from other teams with past experience at the Holiday Inn Express in Kamloops who experienced the same or simular treatment.
There are plenty of hotels in Kamloops, as in the Coast hotel, the Thompson hotel, etc that treat their customers with respect not as a money grab.
