Ryan

The hotel is new and staff was extremely friendly. a gentleman name Vernon maybe? was working and was able to get us an early check in for my daughter's dance recital- which was SO EXTREMELY helpful. His kindness and friendlinesss really made my day. I would come back again just to deal with him again. Thank you! The location was excellent as it was right across from port theathre where we were dancing. The happy hour pricing was excellent and affordable.

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!

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 £106.27 per night8.2Scored 8.2Very GoodRated very good· 852 reviewsGreat location, in a safer part of town. Very close to the ferry, pretty clean and great value for the money. Keycode entry makes checking in and out a breeze Recently renovated and it shows! Without knowing what's on the other side of your door(the roadway), you could think you're in a 4 star hotel! We will definitely choose this motel for our next stay in Nanaimo!PaulCanada

Anthea is a very friendly host, who tried to help me with everything. The rooms are very nicely decorated. Nanaimo is in a short walking distance.
