Kootenay Lakeview Resort, BW Signature Collection

8/10 Good
"It’s a nice hotel close to the ferry. Unfortunately the closest food is at the golf course, about a 10 minute walk. The food there was very good. Strange setup with the lobby and breakfast buffet in a separate building Don the hill from the guest rooms. Breakfast was weak compared to other Best Westerns"
