I'd consider this an upscale gastro-bar, which is a rare find outside of the Lower Mainland in British Columbia. I had the bruschetta chicken entree, which was served with spaghetti squash and grilled broccolini. The seasoning throughout the dish was en pointe. My colleague had a burger.

I travel regularly to Kamloops for work, and Hotel 540 is my favourite place to stay…read more Front desk staff are friendly, professional, and non-robotic. The hotel is clean and modern. Thick white towels and modern bathrooms. High quality bedding and comfortable mattresses. Special touches such as a microwave for guest use and a non-traditional vending machine with interesting snacks are a bonus. The rooftop (actually 2nd floor) pool/hot tub area is spectacular. Kids and adults alike enjoy using the space. Poolside bar and meal service is available. Staff routinely maintain the pool area, picking up stray towels and dirty dishes. The upgraded executive package is a good deal, as it includes underground parking and a breakfast voucher for the on-site restaurant. The breakfast menu has many options from pancakes to eggs Benedict, and the food is high quality and prepared to order. The hotel is located in the heart of downtown Kamloops and is steps from a full-service grocery store, a large drug store, and many cafes and boutiques. I wear earplugs when sleeping, so I cannot comment on room-to-room noise. I don't feel that the noise transfer between rooms is atypical for a building of it's age/construction type. I sleep better here than at home. Overall exceptional experience. I look forward to staying here.

Bad and good experience. Stopping in at this place on my way through to Vancouver. Thought this…read moreplace looked okay on line so I booked early. When we arrived the building was updated and modern. Smelled nice and it was hot that day, however the hotel was cooled to a good temp. The staff was very friendly. Went to the room and it was so-so. Not the best room, but not bad enough to go to a different hotel. The area of concern was the riff raff they allow in the hotel. The level of clientele was low. We really go to know this when we were trying to sleep. People were partying in the hallway and were very loud. We called down to the manager and they said they would take care of it. We waited and the noise came back. I called down again and management said they would be removing the loud guests shortly. The noise then stopped, however a good night's sleep was out of the question at this point. Not sure if it is the proximity to the casino, but the quality of customers was very low during our stay.

We were in Kamloop as part of a trip that we were taking. The hotel was part of the package that…read morethe travel agent set up. We had been staying at Fairmont Hotels, which are known for their high quality (and expense), so I want to keep that in mind as I write this review. The hotel reminds me of one that we have back home, that is set up for families. The lobby is large and spacious. Upon arriving we were greeting by the friendly staff. Our room was on the second floor. It's a large space, with two queen size beds. There was plenty of space for our luggage, a couple extra shares, and even space to exercise. The bathroom was large and had a tub (I prefer a walk-in shower). The place was "nice", but definitely a bit dated. It was clean, but also needed some TLC (worn/chipped paint, etc). There is a large recreation area that contains a pool and hot-tub. We took advantage of the hot tub which was clean and fully operational (lots of jets and bubbles). Plenty of chairs set up in different areas if you had kids and wanted to keep an eye on them. There are also rooms on all three levels that look out on to this area. Overall, a decent experience. I don't know the actual cost would have been, but on the online price is approx $170/$200 for a weeknight/weekend. They also have a restaurant inside that is a nice convenience (reviewed separately).

The rooms are on either side of the courtyard and the rooms facing have a patio or small balcony. inner rooms on the main floor have two doors. One to the hallway and one to the courtyard. We booked four rooms and what is nice is that if you are on the main floor, we could sit outside your room in the courtyard. Room were very large. Only thing I could comment on was some mould on the grout of the bathtub. But very minimal. Offsale as part of the buildings but separate enterance. Would definitely stay again.

We started with some drink and moved into a light casual dinner / snack (it was getting late.) Chicken tenders... Crispy breading and moist tasty chicken breast. Chicken wings...
