Amazing experience
Our experience started with a lobelt rext from janet welcoming us and checking to see when we would arrive. Upon arrival we were greated by janet and the onsite dog clyde. We received a lovely tour and then was taken to our room which was amazing. The view of the mountains and lake from our bed was spectacular. I would recommend the Sentinal to anyone.

We had a wonderful, if short, stay at the Sentinel. Absolutely stunning surroundings, perfect if you’re looking for a peaceful break from the outside world. Breakfast was lovely, and we felt well taken care of by the easygoing and friendly staff.

The views are stunning, the communal space is so incredibly cozy and, the cedar hot tub and sauna was so nice to relax in. The rooms are modern, new, and fresh. We'll be going back ASAP.
The Sentinel is a magical place. The facility is fabulous and the setting is breathtaking.
The staff think of everything to make your stay comfortable. This is my second visit and I will continue to return and bring friends and family.

The staff were all very welcoming and friendly. It feels like you accidentally drive onto someone's property, but it was the retreat. It is a cute quiet place to get away from life's stresses and just relax in nature. The view from the rooms is spectacular. There was not a fridge in the room, and I couldn't control the air temperature, but there was a fan to help cool it down a bit. I would recommend it to groups looking for a calm and quiet getaway

Incredible location and views in Kaslo
Awesome hotel with super friendly and welcoming staff. We were met on arrival by Shannon who kindly showed us around - a first in a while at a hotel. Great room - LOVED the heated floors. Views are out of this world and the grounds and common areas are lovely and feel like your own cosy living room. We will be back for sure!! One suggestion: My wife fell between our room and the lower common room at night - the motion lights were out - had they been working, she would have noticed the stairs.

The Sentinel is a unique experience. It's location is it's main draw with incredible views of Kootenay Lake and the surrounding mountains. It's main dining and living area is also a gem with cappuccinos, amazing views and natural light and friendly staff. The breakfast ($25) is also excellent. Kaslo is an amazing little town. Lots to do and an up and coming Mecca for mountain biking with the best trails in BC. Rooms are lovely and the heated bathroom floors are a lovely treat. The only reason for the 4 star review is that the rooms have paper thin walls and sound from all the surrounding rooms (snoring, talking, etc...) are easily heard - make sure you have a white noise app on your phone. Well very likely be back for a third visit!

Bait and switch
Booked a room with twin beds. They only had a single bed upon arriving. I said I booked twin beds. They gave us a single room next door to give us separate beds but then the next day wanted to charge me for two rooms. I negotiated to one and a half rooms but $100 more than I was expecting to pay. Turns out they had a room with tein beds but didn't give it to us
