Regional District of Nanaimo Holidays from NZ$2,459

Breakfast was not free. We had breakfast at the hotel and it was good. The staff of the hotel were very pleasant and helpful. The hotel is well maintained but it is old and needs updating. The room was a bit small and the closet space limited. The bathroom floor was cold and there was no space other than the window ledge to place our toiletries. The area is noisy because of traffic and sirens from emergency vehicles. It is difficult to get a good night's sleep even though the beds are fairly comfortable. The area outside the hotel is not exactly pleasant because of bad smells and garbage stuffed on the steps and entrances of old and vacant buildings. However, the trees in their fall colour were an attractive distraction. The main advantage of the hotel is the proximity to the theatres, restaurants, cafes, and shopping centres.

great staff, nice perks etc. i

We always love staying at the Fairmont and have had great experiences in the past. This time, however, there seemed to be a miscommunication between Expedia and the hotel. Our room ended up having a city view and a regular shower instead of the harbour and mountain view with the hot tub that we were expecting. We still enjoyed our stay, but we definitely missed the view and amenities this time.

Clean, spacious suite with everything you need - fridge/freezer, oven, stovetop, office space, large comfy bed, washer/dryer, dishwasher, etc. Basically a fully stocked apartment. We really appreciated the hot tub and heated pool too. Would gladly stay again.

Nice clean room with everything you need. Enjoyed our short visit.
