The inn is about 5 km from Nanaimo Harbour Water airport and approximately a 5-minute ride from such cultural venues as the Nanaimo Art Gallery. Sports fans can also visit Cliff McNabb Arena, 4.3 km from the Port-O-Call Inn Nanaimo, and take their families to Harewood Centennial Park, which is 3.1 km away.

Eat & Drink
Momji 310 restaurant offers Korean cuisine.
Leisure & Business
The Port-O-Call Inn features a summer terrace, a picnic area, and a golf course on site.
“What stands out here is the practical setup: in-room fridges, microwaves, and coffee machines cater well to longer stays or those on a budget. The on-site Korean restaurant is a definite plus after a busy day, and a balcony overlooking the courtyard offers a quiet retreat. Location on a main thoroughfare means quick access around Nanaimo, balanced with surprisingly peaceful rooms.”
