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.

The ocean was the best part as there are many places to visit and the views are awesome. People were very friendly everywhere I went. The city is kept quite clean. Parks are nicely attended. Overall visit was very pleasant. Easy to get around having a vehicle as everything is very spread out. Piper's Cove and the harbor downtown were favorite.

- 7.6Scored 7.6GoodRated good· 940 reviewsLocation was great, close to the ferry and the harbour view from our window was delightful. The room was clean and beds were comfortable. It was great to have a laundry room and kitchenette on the hallway even if we didn’t use them. We didn’t have a problem finding a parking spot in the hotels parking lot which was great. The restaurant in the hotel serves good food and has exceptional service. We love booking with BW.CorneliaCanada
- From $99.83 per night8.3Scored 8.3Very GoodRated very good· 807 reviewsThese rooms have been updated with care - not like a lot of old motels that slap on a coat of paint and call it a day. Everything was new and clean, great walk-in shower, fridge, comfy bed. Walking distance to downtown Nanaimo and the harbour. This was more than half the price of the chain hotels near by.MelissaCanada
- From $152.24 per night9.0Scored 9.0WonderfulRated wonderful· 23 reviewsIt really is on a country road with a small creek behind the large property. The host lives on the other half of the modest duplex. Downtown Nanaimo is a 15-20 minute drive but there is a supermarket and a couple of restaurants closer.
MaxCanada - 8.0Scored 8.0Very GoodRated very good· 451 reviewsThe rooms were very modern and clean, with hightech lighting. The staff was very friendly and the hotel was really beautiful. The location was central to the downtown part of Nanaimo and close driving distance to the ocean as well.
