For the last two years, I've spent a week with a group of divers in Nanaimo.The Moby Dick is the only place for us. The rooms are very large - lots of place for the gear. We can even put on all the gear and just walk to the boat. The decor is a little dated, but think of it... more

The shipyard is located literally in 10 meters from the hotel. It produces strong industrial noise from 7am to about 10pm. Very disturbing. It is impossible to get any rest in the hotel during the day. Other than that, the hotel is OK. Rooms are big and clean enough. more

Stayed in Buccaneer down street for next 5 nights, highly... more

This lodge is located right next to the sea and offers good service! On top of that, the rate for this lodge is very reasonable and also provides other service included in the rate (such as outdoor barbeque). You can also choose kayakking and fishing optionally. If you are looking for a good price for huge rooms with other activities... more

The good: Pet friendly, the service was excellent, the hotel was spotlessly clean, the view was amazing and the rates were very reasonable. The bad: Limited hot water. The ugly: Mint green paint, patched blankets (which we actually found endearing) and 1970's decor. If you wish to bring your pet with you on your holidays, this is the place you... more
