Beautiful hotel and bed & pillows are very comfortable. Dined at restaurant onsite and the food is delicious and very expensive. Disappointed that they did not offer hot breakfast given it is considered a “plus” hotel . Provided granola bars, low quality packaged muffins, coffee and juice.

Great place to stay!
Staff (Alvin) was very friendly and shared all the details we need to know. They arranged what I requested. We are very thankful. The room is very clean, even has special note to the guest. Very closed to the city center and restaurants. Will stay here again for sure.

This Best Western is always a good place to stay when I am in Trail...no issues with the hotel at all. The location is so-so...but, its Trail and, although I grew up here, Trail is what it is.

We needed a place to stay during a series of hospital visits to a relative. We needed a room adapted for a person with limited mobility but could not reserve it online. On arrival, the desk clerk saw immediately what our needs were and altered our reservation to ensure we were able to check in to the appropriate room without extra charges. The room was spotless, the bed comfortable and the heating system up to the task without being too noisy. The breakfast room offers a limited menu and the steakhouse while excellent is not a place for regular evening meals for families. Despite being located on the principal artery of the town, traffic noise did not prevent getting a good rest.
