Guest Review of the Embassy Inn Victoria BC
July 22, 2011
Finding a hotel offering a reasonable price in Victoria isn't that easy. The
Embassy seems to be one that does!
Booked there very shortly (just some hours before staying), we got a room in the
new building on the high floor.
The room has been very well equipped which has been the building, too.
Staff isn't that nice and could do better in some cases.
Room Tip: Make sure you get a room in the new building (as they always seem to
offer first the ones in the old "motel"-style building)

Negatives: I booked the Embassy Inn online through Expedia, and when we got
there found out that the pictures that were posted online were misleading. We
stayed in a run-down looking motel in a completely separate building! The beds
were hard, the bathroom was tiny, there is no A/C, the TV was about 15 years
old, and the wireless internet was very spotty. The walls are paper thin, so
bring earplugs if you want to get some sleep.
Positives: There was a little kitchen area complete with stovetop, fridge,
microwave which was nice. There's a charming little courtyard next to the pool
where we sat and drank wine in the evenings. We also discovered that the 3rd
floor had a patio where you can see part of the harbor and the side of the
Parliament building. Although the Embassy Inn is in desperate need of
renovation, the location cannot be beat. It's right next to the Parliament
building, and we were able to walk to the B.C. Museum, the Empress, and
Fisherman's Wharf.
Overall, the price we paid for the room was not worth the money because there
are nicer hotels which we could have gotten for less. However, we booked only a
week before the trip so it was the only hotel available within walking distance
to everything.

We stayed over Canada day and had a great experience. We had direct access to
the pool and patio and enjoyed it alot. The kitchenette was handy for snacks and
drinks. Customer service was super friendly & top notch. The buildings and rooms
are dated but clean. The outdoor pool was very warm & clean as were the table
and chairs on the patio were clean. They take pride in their hotel grounds as
seen by the numerous flowers and hanging baskets around the property. The only
complain I would have is when we went to turn on the tub tab, the water came out
rusty orange.
