Hotel berhampiran Eagle Mountain Church, Nanaimo

We booked the Quality Inn Nanaimo for our stopover stay on the Island. This hotel is very new and the deco is modern and bright. The front desk staff were friendly and helpful. Our check-in wasn’t smooth and took us much longer than anticipated as the staff encountered technical issues. We didn’t get to sign on the official registration but a paper with check-in details written by hand. Our room was located on the 3rd floor over looking the parking lot of an low-rise office building. The size of the guest room is spacious and the bathroom is bright and clean. Unlike other Quality Inns, this one doesn’t offer continental breakfast in the morning and there isn’t any breakfast eateries within walking distance. The hotel offers free all day coffee and tea in the lobby but it wasn’t appealing as the station seemed messy and dirty. Besides, the hotel offers free gated parking for their guests but the spots is limited. There are just around 20 spots in total and is on a first-come-first-serve basis. We ended up walking to the dinner restaurant as we don’t want to lose our spot when we come back later in the evening. In the lobby, there is a small room that serves alcohol and chicken wings starting from 5pm. Although they played loud music trying to create a bar atmosphere, the setup of the space is much more like a breakfast room/cafe. We didn’t eat or drink there. Overall, it is a good hotel to stay if you are in the Nanaimo area.

It is a good option to rest, confortable, quite and clean. Altaf the recepcionist will make you feel at home. Near Tim Hurtons and near the BCFerries. A nice place to stay in Nanaimo. They offer you coffee and tea any time. They also guide you to the places that you need to go. Staff very friendly. Without any kind of doubt I will go back

There’s no denying that this hotel needs an update and all the junk clearing out the reception area. It is dated and at first sight, it puts you off staying there. You cannot say that the receptionists are unfriendly, it’s just they don’t engage with their clients and the result is that they do not seem welcoming. The rooms are dated too, microwaves stacked on top of fridges that can trip the fuses and “black out” your room. The ensuite looks and feels old with noisy inefficient extract fans. On the plus side, the beds are very comfortable, well serviced and clean as are the rooms but that dated look detracts and the lighting is dire. Dire too is the heating and AC, grossly inefficient and virtually uncontrollable. There are minimal supplies in the room but the coffee machine delivers really good coffee. No kettle but reception have one on request. The restaurant food is very good but throughout our week in the hotel, it always had few customers. I suspect the reason for that is that it is very expensive as are the wines and drinks. Too expensive by far for such an establishment and whilst the food was very good, it was not of high enough standard to demand these prices. I would have liked to dine there more often but there are good less expensive restaurants a short drive away and many bar restaurants a short walk over the road. Would I go back again? Well, yes but it would be a bed for the night only. I think they are missing a trick here at many levels or they are not interested in making this establishment better. It has so much potential, such a shame.

The hotel is clean and well maintained. Breakfast is good and a little bit difference every morning 👍. Includes Free parking

My family and I just recently stayed here. We had a great time. The staff were knowledgeable, friendly, and worked very hard to make the hotel run well. They kept everything very clean and were quick to help us when we needed it. The bed was a bit hard for my tastes but my husband and kids all slept great. Breakfast in the morning was simple but freshly made. There were muffins, cereals, breads to toast, scrambled eggs, sausage, fruit, yougurt, and a few other things. The hotel is only a 20 min drive to the ferry as well so that is a nice bonus. I highly recommend staying here.

Our group of nine, four adults and five teenagers spent seven days at this resort. We had two separate units and we had the units with three bedrooms. One of the bedrooms is actually its own studio suite which was kind of nice because it does have its own fridge and a little AC unit and it’s own separate bathroom so it was really, great actually We were in the 200 building facing the pool. If you’re not a lover of family resorts or kids this may not be the place for you or at least don’t face the pool lol. There are a number of different types of accommodations here and there are also some townhouses which I think are two bedroom suites which looked very nice. There’s also some villas, but they book up a year in advance And they overlook the ocean which is beautiful. We were on the third floor of the 200 building and we could see a little bit of the ocean from our balcony. The nice thing about our room was that it did face the pool, but it was really quite private because there was trees in front and when you’re sitting on the patio , you had a lot of privacy. The balcony had an overhang as well, which was nice. There’s also a gas barbeque on the balcony which we used a few times The AC units are the ones that vent outside and they’re decent enough. (Not central air like the townhomes had). The pool is open until 11 o’clock every night. The teenagers had complaints about the hot tub that it wasn’t hot enough, but overall the pool was fine. My couple complaints are just observations about the places that you may not want to have somebody above you if you’re in the Buildings where the condo/Apartment style units are. As I said we were on the third floor and this building is four floors and you could hear a lot of the people above you stomping around. Not a dealbreaker I mean we were fine with it, but they had little kids and they were ripping around quite a bit so it was kind of annoying when they would start at 6 AM. anyway it wasn’t that bad Just an observation. The property, at least in the apartment style condo units don’t get cleaned for the time that you’re here so you have to constantly ask for things when you run out such as toilet paper, sugar, those kinds of things. Parking could be a struggle from time to time because the place fills up a lot every night, especially on the weekends, but it was never a huge deal for our group. Overall experience here though was very good and we would return.

景色宜人！那片沙灘說是有象拔蚌，去挖了幾次都沒有收穫…可能是我們水平不行。樓下餐廳有小棚子，晚餐可以預定。

性價比非常高的酒店，酒店應該重新裝修的時間不長，房間整潔乾淨，床很舒服，温度適宜，一樓的會客廳有免費的咖啡茶水能飲料，24小時開放。酒店對面就是一家很大的麥當勞，一家不錯的中餐自助就在酒店邊上，走路也就50米，附近還有超市等商業，總之很方便。非常滿意

I really enjoyed my time at The Tide’s Inn Parksville. Quiet, very comfortable mattress and pillows. The staff were beyond reproach! Excellent service. Perfect for my pet. We enjoyed the fire pits and close proximity to the beach and services. Well done!
