Nice to have a breakfast in the morning but I found the omelet and sausage bland. The waffles were fun. The room was great. We booked two rooms so our family could join us. Wish we could have had adjoining rooms but one wasn't available.Guest review byJosefCanada - 10
This wasn't our first trip to Nanaimo so we did know our way...
This wasn't our first trip to Nanaimo so we did know our way around most of the city and beyond, but it is always a great place to be. We love the well planned Harbour walkways, many events in the parks, the beach trails. Our favourite beach walks are Piper's Lagoon and Neck Point. There are many good music venues, restaurants, scenic drives and walks. We easily found side roads that were basically parallel to the highway to get to and from downtown. Nanaimo has has a LOT to offer any visitor of any age! Can't wait to return!Guest review byTerry & PatCanada - 10
The Inner Harbor was beautiful.
The Inner Harbor was beautiful. The Snowbirds did a show when I was there. The harbor was lively and fun. The hiking in the area was awesome. Nanaimo is easy to navigate with a car. Great halfway stop between Victoria and Tofino.Guest review byMary LynnUnited States - 6.0
Nice town. Good things to do in the area.
Nice town. Good things to do in the area. Cowichen River float, Parksville mini golf, cycling the adjacent islands. Druggies and street people/beggars. Sirens all night. Car alarms. Shouting at night. Traffic even during the week at off peak hours.Guest review byH - 10

I l lived in Nanaimo for 20 years and was thier for business reasons. The motel had no facilities to make coffee or tea or any drawers to put clothes in. Management even locked me out of my room even though it was pre payed. Management needs to have training in work properly for customers.Guest review byFrancis - 10
Jaw-droppingly beautiful Newcastle Island Park right there!
Jaw-droppingly beautiful Newcastle Island Park right there! Excellent innovative fine dining/cocktails and wine at Mélange. Amazing breakfast at Gabrielle’s Cafe. Fun coffee, drinks and eats at The Vault, which has a rather mesmerizing ambience. We stayed at the Dorchester Best Western. It is worth it to get a harbour facing room. The islands and water there are spectacular to wake up to. Be sure to spend time exploring along Chapel and Church streets area - the old part of town. It is small but really interesting. Nanaimo is also an excellent hub for day trips.Guest review byJulieCanada

- Scored out of 10, guest rating 9.0Wonderful - What previous guests thought, 192 reviewsWe had an amazing stay at Antheas place. Anthea was really nice and thougtful. She gave us good recommendations for our visit in Nanaimo. In the morning she made us a delicious breakfast with fresh eggs from her own chicken. Also her two little dogs and her cat are so cute. The room was really nice and clean. We had our own nice bathroom. The waterfront was only a 5 minute walk away. 10 out of 10 for this stay. We can definitely recommend a stay here.Guest review byValerieGermany
- From $172.92 per nightScored out of 10, guest rating 8.7Excellent - What previous guests thought, 939 reviewsFabulous room with a view -- Grateful for A/C in the warm weather, and found it very easy to adjust. Staff checked to make sure I was comfortable in the room after I got settled, and they were readily available to help if needed. I had breakfast one morning, dinner one evening in the hotel restaurant -- food was good, service was considerate, efficient, and friendly. Great location in downtown Nanaimo.Guest review byFrancesCanada
