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.

- From $79.42 per night8.9Scored 8.9ExcellentRated excellent· 490 reviewsWhat went well? The 4 day visit from start to finish far exceeded my expectations. Darlene the owner/hostess is a wonderful person. She cooked me incredible breakfasts every morning and even sat chatting with me for a couple of hours each morning. The breakfasts were incredible and far better than eating in a restaurant. The B&B was very comfortable and made me feel right a home. Definitely the place to stay in Nanaimo, BC!!!
TimCanada - From $346.57 per night8.4Scored 8.4Very GoodRated very good· 970 reviewsIt was great location to access harbour centre/downtown Nanaimo. They have lot of rooms that have a great view to the ocean and neighbor. I like the way that I can ask any question or request through the text message instead of calling through the phone with long waiting time. They responded fast through the text message
NaraCanada - From $181.38 per night8.3Scored 8.3Very GoodRated very good· 1,705 reviewsThe staff there is really nice and patient. I booked two hotel in Nanaimo. This hotel provides breakfast but another one doesn’t. The best part is that you can go swimming in the lake and then go hot tub after. It’s really nice. Also, they are super friendly to pet. It only cost $20 for a dog to stay 2 nights.YuweiCanada
