What Guests Say
My partner and I were very impressed, if not a little shocked, by how much we liked this hotel. We were looking forward to staying in a “basic” hotel, e.g. just a one-night stand that had all the regular hotel amenities, and this place really went above and beyond. Perfect downtown location, extremely helpful and pleasant front desk staff, and a fabulous room with both water and mountain view. We may have just gotten a particularly lovely room, but we even got to see a father seagull regurgitate a fish and then watch his three babies fight over the guts. We were enthralled. The room was very clean and the beds very comfy. Fridge, freezer, lots of counter space in the bathroom, lots of room to spread out and re-pack our stuff – it was a traveller’s dream. We explored a bit outside the hotel but Nanaimo has some rough parts (especially if you are trying to get to the nearby laundromat) so it was very nice to return to our safe and beautiful hotel room. Highly recommend if you’re passing through!

Our room was huge with a wonderful view of the harbor. We were able to have the sliding glass door open so a nice breeze off the waterfront entered the room at night. The room was clean and the bed was very comfortable. The bathroom was perfect with plenty of hot water. The gym has plenty of equipment for a good workout too. Location of hotel is perfect for catching the ferry to Gabriola Island. Parking is available in the parking garage for a reasonable daily rate.

Fabulous 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.

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.
