Traveling with a pet through Hope, British Columbia, doesn't have to mean sacrificing comfort or breaking the bank. This town, set along the Fraser River and surrounded by the Cascade Mountains, offers a handful of independent motels that welcome four-legged guests. Most of these properties sit close to Highway 1, which runs through the town center, making them convenient stopovers for road-trippers heading to or from Vancouver (about 150 km west) or the Okanagan. Expect modest but clean rooms, free parking, and practical touches like mini-fridges, microwaves, and tea and coffee makers. Rates are budget-friendly: you can typically find a double room for between CAD 80 and 120 per night, plus a per-pet fee that usually ranges from CAD 10 to 20.
A standout option is Richca Chalets Resort, a motel with river and mountain views, located 10 minutes from downtown Hope and 15 minutes from the Othello Tunnels. It offers family rooms, barbecue facilities, and select units with kitchenettes-ideal for longer stays. Another good choice is Mountain View Hope Motel, rated 89 (Fabulous) by past guests, which features a garden, picnic area, and mountain views, and is within easy reach of Kawkawa Lake. Coquihalla Motel offers budget rates and is close to the Hope Slide historic site. For families, Slumber Lodge has an indoor pool and is near the Hope & District Recreation Centre. All of these motels provide free Wi-Fi and parking, and most are non-smoking. If you're traveling with a pet, be sure to confirm pet policies directly, as availability and fees vary by property.
