Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.
Learn more about our review moderation.

Decent hotel in Clearwater. Place looks run down from the outside but room was a good size with 2 comfortable queen beds (one a bit shorter than the other?) Good sized fridge, coffee maker, iron, plenty of hangars, microwave in hall. Outside seating area with BBQ & picnic tables. Laundry room $6 per load. Decent restaurant on site. Place could do with redecoration but perfectly good to stay in

The room was small and too warm for us, but it did have a loud air conditioner. The price was reasonable for what we recieved . The bed was very comfortable and the room was clean. Check in was great and the front desk staff was friendly and helpful.

The restaurant food and staff were great. However after a long days' drive thru a snow storm, and being ill, it wasn't much fun not being able to get the room heater working (it was blowing cold air). The front dest tried with no luck and moved us to another room where the heater appeared to work.... but by morning it was blowing cold air. We were cold and want our money back. Another sign of poor maintenance (altho minor); is that half the knobs on the dresser were missing.

The building is old and it shows its age inside and out. However the room was clean and the staff were very friendly and helpful. They also let us park our motorcycles inside the compound for better security. We did not try out the inhouse restaurant. Ice machines in hallway were easily available. Common microwave at end of hall was also quite accessible.

The room was basic but comfortable and surprisingly quiet. The hallways and stairs are quite run down and badly in need of cleaning, however there are staff shortages and it sounds like the housekeeping staff can't keep up. We had a main floor room facing the courtyard with a little patio. Great spot for pets. We got takeout from the restaurant as our first choice was closed on Mondays. I'd recommend the fish and chips. Good portion for a good price.

Clearwater isn’t the most exciting of places to spend the night - it’s just convenient as it’s on the edge of a wonderful park. I only wanted somewhere to rest my aching limbs overnight - nothing more - and Wells Gray Inn served its purpose at a decent price. It’s quite a drab place on the whole, but my room was clean and comfortable. Wi-Fi was poor. I needed to get online to do some admin but it was shockingly slow.

I would give this hotel a 2 1/2 star rating if Tripadvisor would allow for that. It has been run down and needs major updating to earn a 3 star minimum rating. That being said, the front desk person Dayna did a great job to accommodate our requests for assistance.

Fairly basic motel by the highway (although our room was nice and quiet), but a perfect location to explore Wells Gray PP (which is stunning). Comfortable room and free parking right outside which was a plus. Contrary to some information, the hotel didn't have a hot-tub (looks like it was removed at some point). On site bar had a good menu and it's reasonably priced, plus the staff were lovely. Overall, nothing special, but a great base to explore the area.

We waited about 20minutes to get our room as the staff was very slow and unfriendly. The room was big but not very clean. There is a parking in the hotel, a restaurant and a small shop. The hotel is located next to the provincial park of wells gray.
