Penticton Lakeside Resort is the premier place to stay in the city - it's all about location, location, location. The hotel sits right on the shore of Okanagan Lake, surrounded by municipal parks. Most downtown restaurants and shops are only 5-10 minutes walk away. Most of the big summer events (like Peachfest) take place in the adjacent parks.
There are three places to dine within the resort itself, with a range of price levels. Outside, there is a private beach with a marina. Walking paths connect to Penticton's Okanagan Lake promenade and the Ikeda Japanese Garden.
Rooms and suites are set into two accommodation buildings, with the newer 'West Wing' offering the most upscale surroundings. Many of the rooms have gorgeous lake views.
