Pool and hot tub! Only good things plus Saranne our maid did a sculpture of love swans with towels. To make us feel better for lack of towel holders on no proper drinking cups.She also brought us more hangers with clips to hang towels off. I understand the request and complaints about towel bars goes on deaf ears of owners. Bed was comfortable! New bedding probably because of flood. Elderly lady who checked us out was thorough and professional!

The room was absolutely beautiful. It was very clean. The bed was sooo comfortable and I loved the view I got of the harbor and how close it is to the harbor. The staff was extremely friendly.

Nanaimo was a little city that is spread far apart, but everything you need is 10mins away The homelessness issue rears its head all around Nanaimo but not as aparant as Vancouver! A lot of OLD buildings with a lot of CLOSED but there is a bunch of construction, so I am wondering if the city will soon rebuild?BlakeCanada - 8.0Scored 8.0
Nanaimo is a cool little city.
Nanaimo is a cool little city. Depending on the goal of your trip renting a vehicle is recommended, since the city is spread out. As well there is much to see in surrounding areas. With the ocean, mountains and forest this community is surrounded by nature and beauty!NatashaCanada - 6.0Scored 6.0

We had a great dinner at Firehouse Grill and fantastic coffee at Regards Coffee and the walk along the waterfront was nice but nothing super special, in all honesty it's kind of a dreary, quiet place that isn't very pretty. Maybe it has way more to offer than what meets the eye but I truly wouldn't care to stay there for more than a night passing through.ChelseaCanada - 10Scored 10

There was a couple of RATS outside by the pool but they stayed away from people. The hot tub wasn’t working either. But the pool was GLORIOUS and the room was clean to perfection. It was a nice place to sleep in!DavidCanada - 6.0Scored 6.0

I didn't see much of Nanaimo, just Petraglyph Park, before heading to Victoria. This side of Nanaimo was quiet, and I left very early. One great thing about South Nanaimo is its proximity to the Duke Point Ferry - a short drive. Also, the lack of nightlife meant my visit was quiet. I would recommend visiting Petraglyph Park. It's not easy to find it, you have to be driving on the northbound side, but it's beautiful. I've enjoyed other aspects of Nanaimo in the past, especially the Woodgrove area, and I've found people there very friendly.CluckyCanada - 10Scored 10

Lots of parking available in Nanaimo downtown, ( dont park on yellow band or else you get ticket) and walk around harbor and see sea plane takes off and landing. lots of trails to explore. you can catch fish on the shore.

- From $130.86 per night7.6Scored 7.6GoodRated good· 515 reviewsThis place is amazing. A gem in the middle of the city. When you step into the lobby iit’s like stepping into a grand hotel of the past. It is elegant. Very friendly staff. Wonderful restaurant with lixurious ambience . There is also a bar at the facility, which is well known as the whiskey bar in in the area. The rooms are big and comfortable and extremely clean and the price was very reasonable.
PatCanada - From $146.90 per night7.7Scored 7.7GoodRated good· 962 reviewsThe location was fantastic, just across the street from the main boat docks, bastion and quaint downtown. The pace and style of the town was laid back and the locals enjoyed taking the time to stop and chat. The meals served at the popular hotel lounge and main restaurant were very good; but, reserve early, finding a table as a walk-in was difficult.
BobCanada - From $166.32 per night8.5Scored 8.5Very GoodRated very good· 247 reviewsI was pleasantly surprised by the room, it was spacious, had a beautiful couch and a very comfortable big bed. The bathroom and shower were big and the mini close up mirror was a nice touch. The TV screen was very big as well. I liked the fitness room, it had everything you’d need. Overall a wonderful, modern hotel.JuliaGermany
- From $108.91 per night7.3Scored 7.3GoodRated good· 558 reviewsThis is a classic style motel. Its beauty is it’s a short walk to the Nanaimo ferry to Vancouver and it’s clean. I found the bed very comfortable, as good as more expensive hotels. Staff is excellent, very friendly. I parked my Motorcycle out front of my room and it was safe all night. Just like the picture shows.
DavidCanada - From $166.41 per night8.3Scored 8.3Very GoodRated very good· 1,704 reviewsThe staff there is really nice and patient. I booked two hotel in Nanaimo. This hotel provides breakfast but another one doesn’t. The best part is that you can go swimming in the lake and then go hot tub after. It’s really nice. Also, they are super friendly to pet. It only cost $20 for a dog to stay 2 nights.YuweiCanada
