Top Long Lake Hotel Reviews

Quality Inn

8/10 Good

"clean rooms, friendly staff, a little bit of a walk to the wharf and downtown (up the hill from the water). Have to cross some sketchy areas between the hotel and the water."

Ramada by Wyndham Nanaimo

8/10 Good

"Although the hotel was nice and clean it left a few things that were less than pleasing. Upon arrival they didn’t have my reservation, fortunately I had a copy of my confirmation. They were apologetic for the confusion and got me a room promptly but I am not sure it was quite ready for me as there were small things like cups not in the room. I was there with a coworker for work, (which was night work in Port Alberni) for 3 nights (checking out on the Friday) and we asked the woman desk clerk if they offered a late check out as we had been arriving back to the hotel the previous nights between 4-5:30am. She gave us an attitude as she told us that they do not allow this when a simple “no, sorry we don’t offer that” would have been sufficient. One of the mornings when we arrived back later than previously we decided to go to the breakfast buffet just after it opened. By the time we arrived it had already been wiped clear. Obviously this was most likely a rarity but still a little bit of a let down. The room was nice and the fridge worked great as did the AC. The blackout blinds were a very welcome feature as I was working evenings and sleeping during the day"

The Bluebird Motel

8/10 Good

"Affordable stay within minutes from the ferry. Room was spacious enough for a family of 6 and a pet, and it had the basics we needed. The fan/AC didn’t keep the room cool, but we were prepared for that based on previous reviews. Very strong odor in the room - like a stale older home, and our clothes definitely carried the smell after we left. Fans in the living room and bathroom were coated/caked with dust and we did find a few spiders and cobwebs. That all being said, we’d still stay here again for a night to save a little money on the island."
