If you like the trains, this place is a MUST! The propietors are most friendly, and the invidual cottages are roomy and spotlessly clean. The inn, once a former post office is set in a charming street. Within 50 metres of the motel is the Canadian Pacific railway, and running high along a shelf on the other side, some 150... More

There really isn't much to choose from in Lytton. These units are clean, and the lawn which looks over the Fraser gives a great view. Yes, there are train tracks below (and above the town as well) - but that's Lytton. I think that the charging for internet is a little cheap, however - given that it's free with virtually... More

We last stayed at this motel about 11 years ago. We were going river rafting then as we were doing this time. The place seems to be frozen in time and I would be hard pressed to find anything that had changed over this span of time. It is the best place in town but then you need to see... More

I recently stayed at the Totem Motel in Lytton. It is the best place in town with very friendly owners. I cooked all my own meals which was perfect for me. The cottages are somewhat dated but very clean.

Basic motel that needs updating, but is clean, safe, and has all amenities needed. The location is great. There is a nice grassy area behind the buildings overlooking the Fraser River. Our suite had a living room area, kitchenette, bathroom, and small bedroom. The furnishing was very dated - it felt like a bit of a time warp, but everything... More

The totem motel is on a street parallel to the railway and main street at the front, and river at the back. It is next door but one to the tourist information centre and a few houses away from the musem. Accommodation is in little wooden chalets. In the two bedroom unit there is a very small double bedroom (we... More

We had a very pleasant stay at the totem motel. Nice and clean accomodations, located on the river. The owners were very friendly and welcoming. We rented the two bedroom unit and it was very comfortable. The town of Lytton is very charming.

A quaint little property with individual cabins, very clean, a comfy bed and good, sized room. Perfect for a stop over, but not our type of place for a vacation, but I could see it being perfect for others!

Very CUTE cottages next to the Thompson River. Owner was very helpful and welcoming. This is a charming refuge. We had two cottages, both clean & complete with all the necessities plus more charm then one could hope for in a warm and friendly town. Surprised by the great sezchewan & tappan dishes served up at the local hotel on... More

Stayed in Lytton 1 night for work. Not many choices for accommodations, so decided on this one. Wow! It was s step back a few decades in time. I am not a fan of motor courts, or motels or however you would describe this one. It looked like a place you would see on a movie as travelers visit the... More
