Tracy
The staff was super friendly and the Bar tender Tanja was a blast. We accidentally left something in the room and human resources were wonderful to deal with.
Sharon
It was a great stay the only reason I didn’t give it a 5/5 was when I went to use the complimentary soaps ect as I had forgotten my hand lotion was that the lotion and mouthwash had already been opened before we got there. Yes I know that if I had let front desk know they would have immediately replaced everything. But it does affect your stay
Christopher
Always a clean convenient comfortable place to stay.
I was lucky enough to get a free upgrade to a nicer room. Bed was super comfortable and the shower was amazing.
I’ll definitely be back.

Very retro look. One of a kind. Loved it.
Nicole
It was just okay.
The disabled parking was not adequate and people used it without a placard. Also a semi was parked and at times it used two spaces.

Great place
Jeremy
The front desk persons were always helpful, especially getting me water and ice; never gone to a hotel where getting water was so difficult, none even in the room fridge. The elevator makes you feel very fat, it creaks and moans every time you use it, makes you wonder when they’ve had it last serviced.
The restaurant was constantly closed and lights off do to not enough business or staff. It always amazes me when businesses blame economy for bad times but, at the same time, how is it Cactus Club is booming and hard to get a reservation? The hotel looks like something that once was but is no more. The pictures online are not anything like the real experience. Definitely paying the higher dollar for the Best Western near Superstore. Also, the bed headboard is too high and your pillow gets jammed in the space; had to jam another pillow in the space to make it somewhat work for me. The plug behind the mattress is at the right night to push the plug out, to only find out in the morning that none of your stuff charged.

Suzanna fue de gran ayuda durante nuestro check-in en el hotel. Tenía una sonrisa encantadora y siempre estaba dispuesta a ayudar. Además, hablaba mi segundo idioma y venía del mismo país. No me importaría volver a alojarme aquí. Estoy deseando mi próxima estancia.
El hotel también está cerca de un centro comercial y de McDonald’s y Fatburger.

Visit was delightful
Stephen
Lovely suite, friendly staff and awesome whiskey bar. Will stay again for sure unless prices increase dramatically. Best hotel in Nanaimo. Also good area. Downtown Nanaimo is unsafe now. This area is quiet and safe. Longwood Brew Pub and Browns social house nearby among many other amenities and grocery store etc. Only negatives, Jacuzzi dead and no breakfast.
Bruce
Great place easy to get to
Jennifer
I thought the bed was too soft, my husband's side was too hard. The pillows are smaller but firm. Everything is great, you have to get your ice from the front desk. Room was clean, quite happy with the hotel

Mel
Everything was great except my toilet was covered in feces
Rennie
It’s what you would expect for the price I guess. Room a little smelly. Not too well ventilated. Quite outdated. Staff friendly and efficient. We didn’t use the restaurant or bar.
Morgan
The staff is always so very accommodating.
Gregory
Great place for an overnight stay
Shannon
Enjoy our stays when we are in town for a ball tournament close to local stores and restaurants. I wish the restaurant in the hotel stayed open till atleast 10pm and wish there was a hot tub or pool at this location.
Justina
The food in the restaurant was really good.
Donna
Restaurant was closed the day I arrived which was a little disappointing as they have great food. Then the under ground parking was not accessible
Front desk was friendly when I checked in early
Ferries were having multiple cancellations over the Easter weekend which was disrupting travels

James
Our go to hotel in Nanaimo. I especially love the decor in the lobby
Anna Louise
While I enjoyed my stays and it is my 2nd stay at Christmas with the hotel. I am disappointed that the kitchen closes down during Christmas especially for breakfast. I had took cab to recommended breakfast restaurant but found it closed for Christmas as well. I did not find it located to many walkable amenities. That said because it is near family I would always choose this hotel
JANICE
Very classy room with a gas fireplace and jetted tub. Price was very good for the quality of room.
Laurie
Spotless, great staff.
Julia
Staff is amazing. Every time I've stayed. The staff is awesome.
Shirley
The property is very clean . The staff were polite and considerate . Our original room was above a ballroom . The front desk moved us to a quieter area when we checked in
Ryan
Booked there because it has a restaurant ans good price. They book our private events which left no room for me
martin

Marcela
Staff were courteous. The room was clean. Some improvements would be welcomed, like more outlets in the room to connect your laptop, phone charger. I tried to use the hair dryer and it didn't work, not sure if it was the outlets or the dryer itself. The mini fridge was noisy. We would have liked the restaurant to be open at least for breakfast. Thank you.
Tejveer Singh
Great hotel
James
restaraunt was closed so the dining experience was non existent
ronald
Stayed here many times. Good value. Disappointed jacuzzi tub not working. Will stay again in future.
Marci
Well, looks are deceiving. You walk in the foyer and think wow this place looks elegant, then you take the elevator up to your room and see phone cards and electrical ends hanging out of the top of the wall. The room was clean and beds comfortable. The shower head seemed as though it would blow off if it was in high power. Other family members stayed in another room where the fireplace, jetted tub and thermostat did not work. Probably won’t stay again
Malgosia
I love this place!
David
Great old school vibe to this hotel. It's not really that old but has a European feel to it. Killer Whiskey bar. The restaurant is also fantastic for dinner.
Mario
Everything about the hotel was first class from the front desk to the chamber maid,
I had a wonderful stay.

Charming hotel with wonderful decor - nice large rooms - quiet, and excellent location for our purposes. Beds on the soft side (not my preference).

The Hotel looks good and has beautiful bath robes. On the negative side, the bathroom floor has a large number of dirty old cracked tiles, there was no convenient charging point for my iPhone, there were continuous strange noises, thin walls.and the restaurant does not open for breakfast.

Dan
Comfortable, Quiet, Reasonably Priced

I like the location for the places I wanted to visit. I had looked up for a stay with a pool and it has said that this hotel has a year around indoor pool which was a reason I chose it, however when I inquired at the from desk it did not have a pool
Robert
Hotel was clean and beds were comfortable.
Nathaniel
Site was ok, but the beds are so soft I’ve spent double the cost of the night on getting my back fixed!
Connie
Friendly staff and atmosphere. Lobby had some wonderful displays. Room was clean and comfortable
Larry
The Grand Hotel reminded me of an elegant aging woman. A little worn but absolutely captivating.
Thomas
Was very nice. Complimentary Continental breakfast would be a good addition.
Karen
It was great! Staff was awesome! Price was right! Chef amazing
IRENE
It has olde world charm and the staff were friendly and helpful. The main problem was the lack of breakfast service. There was no indication online that breakfast had ceased being served after covid. Suggesting Macdonald's is a very poor substitute for the aroma of bacon, eggs and fresh toast being prepared. On line, even The Grand Hotel omelets were recommended! Ceasing breakfast service was a very poor decision! Dinner, however, was very enjoyable
John
Very comfortable clean hotel with a fine restaurant and pleasant grounds. Only concern is that no breakfast is available and nothing of quality within walking distance of the hotel.
stewart
Friendly place .
Christine
Spacious room. Staff were quick to help when TV remote was missing. The dining room food and service was amazing! The British memorabilia in the lobby was wonderful. The hotel lived up to its name - Grand!
juliet
The whole place is charming! I enjoyed a late supper at the restaurant and not only was the food delicious ( do try the crème brûlée) Tanya was friendly and ensured my dining experience was 5 star!
Alyson
The beds were so comfortable we slept like Sleeping Beauty! The staff was friendly and accomodating and the outdoor dining was lovely in warm fall weather.
Jasing
what I liked about the property was the overall ambiance, as well as the cleanliness and great room size. The excellent service from all staff members and the delicous food and wines.
My complaint would be the tripping hazard outside the building, between the parking lot and the carriage porch. My husband and I both tripped over it at different times. Our concern is that it could prove quite dangerous to someone with less agility or unsteady on their feet.

Andrew
Clean and comfortable. Very friendly staff
Michael
Bathroom had hair on the shower walls upon check in. The whole room smelled like Grandma's bsmt. Carpets need torn out. It's just time for an update. Whoever owns the hotel is stuck in the early 90's and it just is in bad need of an update. The furniture, like the couch, on the sitting area is so old. We changed hotels after a night
Francesca
We stayed just long enough to sleep. We appreciated the quiet and efficient A/C.
Christine
All good
Hanna
Friendly place, good area for shopping. Rooms are nice but little outdated.
Jeannine
Nice old hotel. Good location.
Dianne
This hotel is a little dated, but makes up for it by the lovely staff!
Sarah M
This hotel is a nice hotel in a good location where you can easily walk around the nearby lake, or explore Nanaimo. It's an older hotel so it is dated, but the price is reasonable and the place is well cared for.
The outdoor garden is delightful and a great place to relax or work!
