"Many small problems, the curtains fell off as soon as they were pulled, the bathroom exhaust fan could not be turned on or off (in order to say that the central control actually did not seem to be) The sound was oversized, and then I didn’t know how to turn on the hot water for a long time. The new front desk was a bit greasy."
"It’s my first Best western in few decades. Pleasantly surprised by the modernity and cleanliness.
Room is comfortable and compact with all the basic touches and a good layout.
The free breakfast was a nice touch.
Location is perfect for one night stay to get in and out from the highway."
"The room was comfortable and clean. The breakfast included was definitely the best part of the stay because it wasn't a continental breakfast but a freshly made egg omelet with sausage, waffles, bagels, and of course coffee or tea. The downside of the stay was being close to a busy road and traffic can be a little noisy."
"This hotel is under Marriott and is well managed by friendly staff at the front desk. Check-in and check-out are quick and smooth. Indoor guest car parking is just across the street for $9.45. The spacious rooms and bathrooms have significant counter areas decorated with bright lights. Ice machines are on every floor. Washing and drying machines are available for $3 each. The indoor swimming pool opens from 7am to 11pm, and the gym is open 24/7. The only downside was the coil of the air conditioning was installed in the room, so you will hear the big noise when the coil starts to work the room temperature colder."
"The hotel is located about 3 kilometers from the city center. There are several plazas along the way to shop and eat. The breakfast at the hotel is simple but full. Some rooms have been renovated and are quite good. Reception is very warm, praise!"
"The Beach Club is a our go-to spot when we need to get away from reality for a few days, the setting, the amenities and the staff always make our stay the perfect gateway!
We had a fabulous meal in the onsite restaurant finished off with a 40 year old Fladgate for dessert. We walked for miles on the sand and the boardwalk and even got to get our Pickleball fix with several courts and welcoming locals adjacent to the hotel!
Once again, the Beach Club was a perfect distraction!"
"It was an amazing exercise staying at Turtle, it’s in the middle of downtown, super close to ocean, restaurants and night life is good. I’m definitely staying there again! It was clean n neat, no one disturbed, guests were super friendly. "

AAmy liu-vanThe hotel is not big, unexpectedly good, clean, quiet and friendly, intimately prepared small snacks, basins, sleeping mats (although small), towels, dinner is also very satisfied, you can also see the sunset, listening to the sound of the waves to sleep is a great experience
PPriscilla Pui KiGood value for money! Newly renovated rooms very close to the beach! I love the beautiful views and handheld shower and coffee machine at the lounge. Everything is perfect. The only complain would be that the walls are quite thin and you cam hear noise from neighbour units but ear plugs may solve the issue.
WwilliamkamHotel location is very easy to find, the room, bedding and bathroom supplies are very new and clean, arrived at the hotel early on the same day and checked in in advance, it really made the guests have a good experience. If you need to take a boat back to Vancouver in the morning, this hotel is a very good choice. It takes only 5 minutes from the hotel to the departure bay ferry terminal, which is very convenient. I will stay at this hotel next time I come to Nanaimo.
LLeanne Hoi-YauSingle House with two beds and one sofa bed. Near the beach and easily to find the place.
The room is nice, it is good for family trip to Parksville area.
JJINXIANGThe environment is very nice and there is a garden, a large parking lot, and the rooms are large, like suites. It is only a few minutes drive from the hotel to the city centre, which is especially convenient.
