The property is not bad, you get what you pay for. But the owners do take advantage of guest misfortunes. I booked a room on the day I was supposed to arrive, but couldn’t make it there due sudden highway closure in Golden due to weather. I called them from the road, and the reception assured me they’ll accept the cancellation. In the end though they charged me anyway. Watch your wallet (and learn some Mandarin).

Hotel Happy Salmon is very good value. We use it to break up a long journey from central BC to Calgary, especially with the shorter daylight hours of winter.
The rooms around the back don't hear the noise from the nearby highway.

Owner was very friendly and understanding. The only downside is the motel is close to the train track and highway, so you will hear the road noises. Easy check in and out processes. Overall, I had a very pleasant experience at this motel.

Happy Salmon motel was a nice surprise. Although it doesn't look fancy from the outside, the suite is roomy and comfy. We have a quiet night and fully restored on our way from Banff park. Beds are comfy and unit have everything inside. Temperature was comfortable and unit was warm when we arrived.

We are on the way to Yoho and Banff national park. The hotel is very convenient, close to freeway. The staff is nice, he gave us a room which is not facing the road. The room is clean, and was renovated. Only thing is the bed is too soft. But the price is so good, so we are happy to stay here for one night.

Large gap at bottom of door (no threshold) allowing bugs to enter room. Greatly overpriced ($172w/tax) for what we got.

Front desk would not accept my registered service dog. He argued with me. They need to be educated on what the rules are before running a business.

Owners were amazing during the recent wildfires in the area. Rooms were clean and recently renovated, the owner took care of us after we were told to evacuate. Will definitely return.

Clean rooms with lots of space, but very basic. Exterior of Motel is looking a bit tired, but the rooms are adequate. Cost seemed high for the quality of the accommodations, but it is less expensive than many other places in Sicamous area, so seems worth it.

Walked through the door into a big room with a table and 2 chairs, then through to a separate very spacious bedroom, with a big comfy bed. Separate bathroom with bath and shower. A very nice room and smells lovely. Great air con - very hot weather. Coffee maker, tea, coffee and fridge. Outdoor seating /picnic area.

I had a terrible experience with this hotel. The staff were very rude and I was charged even though I did not stay at the hotel. I was driving home from the Vancouver coast to Alberta and felt I could not keep my eyes open to safely make it all the way to the hotel. I had to stop for rest sooner and book a different hotel. I tried to explain this to the hotel staff and was told me they do not care about my situation and that I should not complain. I understood I missed my deadline for a refund but no need to be so rude over the phone to a customer. I was so shocked how they spoke to me knowing they already had my money.

This is a refurbished motel. A bit quirky, but very clean and comfortable. If you're looking for something that isn't fancy but is a very clean place to stay, this place is great.
