The property was very clean, and the area seemed safe. It's close to shopping, and the beach. Excellent Japanese Fusion restaurant just across the street. Very friendly staff, i was pleasantly surprised when the hostess remembered my name at checkout, despite only meeting her for several minutes at check-in.

Empire motel is amazing

Staff at hotel, which was the owner, was amazing. She is so kind and accommodating. Our room was clean and had everything we needed. My kids enjoyed the pool and hoe close it was to the beach. We had a great stay.

Great for families. Picnic area was convenient and being able to BBQ was great. One suggestion would be to add laundry facility, then it would be perfect.

The room was good for the price. Bed was comfortable. There was some spider webs in the corners of the bathroom and an issues with the draining of the tub but the staff was friendly. Only recommendation would be an 11am check out time like most other hotels.

Amazing Stay , Super Clean & Family-Friendly! We had a great time at the Empire Motel! The rooms are newly renovated and spotless, and the owner and staff were so friendly and welcoming. It’s in a great location—just a short walk to the beach, with lots of parking. We loved the pool and BBQ area, perfect for hanging out with family and friends. We’ll definitely be back!

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!

The outside picnic and barbecue area is big and wonderful. The whole place is very family oriented and quiet at night. Estelle, the owner, has a gift of hospitality and is so welcoming. The beach is only a couple of blocks away
