- Review: Stayed at the Coast Bastion Hotel and it was lovely. Check in was easy, staff were friendly. Parking is available and cost $9\. I asked for a few extra things later and they were provided no problem, Robes in the room which I love. The sliders instead of slippers were ok for me but didn’t fit my husband. The hairdryer was too small , took forever to dry my hair. Fabulous big towels, not skimpy ones. Amazing view of the harbour - great to see the sunset and sunrise.

- Location: Nanaimo
- Review: This is a good property, staff really friendly and helpful, hotel is very clean. It is located on the outskirts of Nanaimo but is near all of the retail parks so plenty accessible. The only thing you could really call out about this is that the decor is a bit dated but this shouldn’t put you off. We stayed in a 2 bedroom suite with two doubles and a sofa bed. The sofa bed is probably getting to a point where it could do with replacing as springs starting to go but this might just be the one in..., by Christopher, 27 August 2024, rated 10/10 Excellent
