How high is too high?

Westcorp is standing up for the new design of its proposed downtown Kelowna hotel.

City planning staff are recommending council deny a new development permit and variance permit application for the hotel on the former Willow Inn site.

Staff said the size, height and massing of the newly-designed 33-storey hotel is overwhelming and lacks sensitivity for the site.

Council will review the application on Feb. 20.

Castanet hit the streets to find out if you're onboard with the new hotel.
