Obviously this is not a resort where you sit around by the pool but if you are arriving late off the ferry nothing beats this no nonsense hotel. Super clean and beds super comfortable. Small rooms but for the money it can not be beat. I have now made this my go to rest spot when I take the late ferry to the island and not wanting to drive into the night

We had a late night stay at the Buccaneer Inn before leaving for Victoria in the morning and so happy we booked it. The room was well set up, parking and reception easily accessible to the room and the beds were extremely comfortable. Everyone was well rested after a long day and check out was simple. A lovely choice if you're staying in Nanaimo!

Yes, the room was very clean and well maintained. David was extremely helpful....went over and above the expected. We had booked the 'fireplace' suite....didn't fire it up, but my wife absolutely loved it. Bed was super comfortable (I slept in until almost 8 both mornings.....something I never do. This is a family that has trully embraced the art and meaning of hospitality.....something that most places do not even comprehend these days.
