The location was near the ferry terminal which was what we needed
Nanaimo is a great city. Has incredible views of the bay and mountain range. Very friendly people. I happened upon a lovely kitchen store, Maison Cookware & Bakeware, that has an incredible selection of quality kitchenware. I spent some time talking to the owner, Julia House. She was a wealth of information on everything in her store. She said they will soon be opening a tableware store in the same complex. Definitely a stop for every cook!

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?

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.

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!

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.
My partner and I had a really nice stay at the Buccaneer. We had come to Nanaimo for a boat survey at the nearby marina and it was within walking distance, as well as within walking distance to a few restaurants and pubs. The staff was exceptional. They went out of their way to help me with a few things and were also able to upgrade our room. The room was exceptionally clean and kept in very good order, much more so than other lower priced hotels I have visited. Solid A++ and I would 110% stay there again.
Have stayed here for 3+ day stretches twice now. The lake access is amazing, the rooms are large, comfortable and well stocked. The breakfast was even better (more options) than last year (still covid breakfast). Pet friendly, BBQs if you feel like grilling and located within easy access of the freeway if you are heading north or south. The mall nearby (walking distance) has a grocery store. All sorts of lake fun rentals and reasonable laundry facility prices.
I 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.
The place is clean. The room is very homey.
The Staff are Incredibly Friendly and Accommodating.
Bal, the concierge at that time has a warm personality, she is an Asset, I don’t know how the Hotel was able to find her.
I will Highly Recommend the Place, it’s at the center of the city at the waterfront.
Darlene made us very welcome and provided us with very suitable recommendations for dinner. Breakfast was excellent.
We thought that this was the cleanest property we hade every stayed at.
The location was great for catching the ferry from Nanaimo.
The house was new with a huge terrace and an amazing ocean view.The hosts Shawn and Lili tried their best to make us feel welcomed and Indeed we felt like home.Thank you Shawn and Lili.If anytime soon in Nanaimo you are the first choice.
I liked the accessibility of the hotel which is exactly off the road and it wasn't hard to find at all. The room was huge and had everything we expected in a hotel. I liked how close the restaurant is and the food was great too.
I loved that they have a hotel dog. The lady was very friendly at the front desk too. If the ferry ever gets canceled and I’m stuck in Nanaimo again , I will definitely stay there again .
Extremely feels like the best service I’ve had in any hotel, all the employees are so friendly & always checking in on how your doing, always with a smile & happy to help.
Best value in Nanaimo. Clean, spacious and well laid out room. Lots of plugs for charging devices. Great budget room within walking distance of downtown.
