Inspection summary
Best Western Revelstoke - Kitchen has been inspected 9 times by Interior Health Authority since March 26, 2013. The most recent inspection, on January 21, 2026, found no infractions.
5 of 9 inspections on record found no infractions at all. In the past 12 months there was 1 inspection with 0 infractions recorded. The higher-risk findings here relate to: Food temperature control, Protecting food from contamination and Cleaning and sanitizing.
The last 2 inspections in a row found no infractions. The number of infractions per inspection has stayed roughly the same over time.
What these findings mean
Health authorities word their violations differently, so we group them by what they mean for food safety. Higher-risk findings are the ones inspectors treat as critical, because they can directly make someone sick.
Food temperature controlHigher risk
Bacteria multiply fastest between about 4 °C and 60 °C (40 °F to 140 °F). Inspectors check that cold food stays cold, hot food stays hot, cooked food is cooled quickly, and that staff have accurate thermometers. Temperature problems are one of the most common causes of food poisoning, so these are treated as critical findings.
Recorded 2 times across 2 separate inspections, most recently on September 7, 2017. For example:
4 - Are proper refrigeration, freezing and thawing procedures followed?
Protecting food from contaminationHigher risk
This covers how food is stored, prepared and displayed: raw meat kept away from ready-to-eat food, food covered and stored off the floor, and nothing dripping or splashing into it. Cross-contamination from raw to cooked food is a direct route for salmonella and E. coli.
Recorded once on November 9, 2023. For example:
5 Are the premises and equipment properly maintained and operated in a sanitary manner (i.e. ongoing maintenance)?
Cleaning and sanitizingHigher risk
Anything that touches food, such as cutting boards, dishes and utensils, must be washed, rinsed and sanitized. Inspectors check dishwasher temperatures, sanitizer strength and how wiping cloths are stored. Poor sanitizing lets bacteria survive from one use to the next.
Recorded once on February 17, 2015. For example:
2 - Are dishes, utensils and food contact surfaces properly cleaned and sanitized?
Building, plumbing and upkeepLower risk
Floors, walls and ceilings must be smooth and clean, with working lighting, ventilation, plumbing, hot and cold water, and washrooms. These are rarely an immediate food-safety risk on their own, but persistent problems can lead to pest or sanitation issues.
Recorded 2 times across 2 separate inspections, most recently on February 17, 2015. For example:
1 - Is the premises in good repair?
Other findingsLower risk
Findings that do not fit the categories above, such as follow-ups that confirm an earlier violation was corrected, or requirements specific to this type of facility.
Recorded once on November 9, 2023. For example:
1 Does the facility have proper monitoring supplies?

- F1.4 - Are proper refrigeration, freezing and thawing procedures followed?
- Observation(s): Pooled eggs and cut vegetable toppings are not being stored in a temperature controlled setting on the line. Due to the high turnover of the products the risk is low, however the products are best placed in an ice bath. This was reviewed with the cook on site for future implementation. Eggs are pre-pooled the day before into multiple buckets and held in the fridge. I am also including the provincial guidelines for safe pooling of eggs for your consideration.

We stayed at Bestwestern Plus Revelstoke for a night in May. The hotel looks new, probably less than 2 years old. Check in staff were friendly and efficient. Free coffee was available in the lobby, although the coffee was instant Nescafe and not brewed. The room was average in size, newly furnished, with a clean, modern look, and came with a fridge, coffeemaker, microwave, and 2 comfortable Queen beds. Free complementary hot and cold breakfast was served from 7am to 10am in the lobby. Breakfast included bread, cereals with milk, fruits (apples, oranges and bananas), sausage and eggs, cooked oats (with cranberry, walnuts and granola toppings), and make your own waffles. Maybe the motel is new, the use of laundry (2 washers and 2 dryers) is free. There’s a liquor and convenience store adjoining the hotel open from 7am to 11pm, which sells mostly alcohol. If you’re staying in a room with east-facing window, do close the blackout curtains (outermost layer next to glass pane) as the glaring morning sun can wake you up.

Overall, the hotel stay was good, and the room and services were good.. there is one area of improvement for all Best Western. They only offer body wash soap instead of shower gel. This is strange as shower gel is very common in all other hotels that I stayed in.

We stayed here twice on our most recent road trip to Banff. We found all staff to be professional, personable, friendly and genuinely caring on both occasions. Rooms were spacious (request mountain view!) with very comfortable beds. Hot breakfast every morning, with different selections daily. Breakfast servers Ellen and Lina went out of their way to make breakfast dining a pleasant experience.

This property has been well kept through the years and maintains a high quality standard for accommodations in Revelstoke. The amenities are fantastic, there is ample parking, and the staff are fantastic. There is also transportation available to downtown Revelstoke. I’d like to give a special shout out to Gurveer at the front desk, who recognized me from my stay 10 months earlier. Customer service like Gurveer’s goes a long way for frequent travellers like myself. I highly recommend this property for your Revelstoke trip!

Great spot! The room was quiet. For a free breakfast, the options taste really good. Most hotels microwave their "hot" entree options, but this hotel is actually cooking things like eggs on-site, and you can taste the difference. Beautiful hot tub area with mountain views. Shuttle bus to Revelstoke ski area stops directly in front of the hotel, and the hotel provides free shuttle vouchers at front desk. We took the shuttle bus from Kelowna airport so we did not need a car rental for our ski vacation. Free shuttle bus to take you 1 KM into the downtown area for great food starting at 5:45 PM.

I stopped by at the end of march, so it was quiet and peaceful… rooms were impeccable with an amazing view of the mountains, they had hot tubs with views and a full buffet breakfast included ! I really don’t tend to leave reviews but this one was well deserved! an amazing stay

Very nice hotel, clean and modern. Great breakfast selection. Front desk staff is very friendly and attentive, check in was easy. Nothing bad to say! Would definitely recommend over and above most other hotels in the surrounding area that look outdated and somewhat run down.

I had an amazing experience at this hotel. The front desk staff were incredibly friendly, professional, and helpful throughout our stay. Check-in and check-out were quick and easy. I requested an extra bed late at night, and the staff personally brought it to my room right away. I also asked for extra pillows and blankets, and they were delivered promptly. The staff went above and beyond, even offering local tips and recommendations for things to do in Revelstoke—which made our trip even better. The hotel also provides a free shuttle service around town, which was very convenient. The complimentary breakfast had plenty of variety and was delicious. We also enjoyed the outdoor hot tub and pool—such a great way to relax! There were a few insects in the pool due to it being outdoors, but it didn’t take away from the experience. Overall, it was a fantastic stay with excellent service. I would definitely stay here again and highly recommend it to others!

Yummy breakfast, comfy, quiet room, friendly staff. Lost a perfect score to a Luke warm shower (kind of a big deal) and dirty, finger printy exterior doors. Otherwise, great stay.
