Guest Review of the Embassy Inn Victoria BC
May 3, 2011
The response of the staff to a minor problem was excellent, quick and efficient.
The room was exceptionally clean. We really enjoyed the kitchenette since we had
to on the go in the morning begore any restaurants would be open.
I would have preferred some method of cooling the room down other than opening
windows. Air conditioning should be added to the low building as well as the
tower.

Location, value, friendly and helpful staff. I'm visiting from Kansas and came
to the island to see Victoria and the Butchart Gardens. This is a perfect hotel
to use as a "home base".
Stayed in the old section of the building. Very clean but the mattresses need to
be replaced. I stayed the end of April and did not need air conditioning but if
you are staying in the summer, you will need the air conditioning. Maybe they
could use a fan to help circulate stale air.

- Location - I wanted to be close to the downtown area. Since I lived previously
in James Bay, I wanted something in that area. Economy - I had some
medical/dental appointments and other personal/business contacts and just wanted
an inexpensive place to stay. I found the rates at the Embassy to be reasonable.
-
I was very disappointed that there was no "food service" in the evening. I had
stayed at the Embassy in late September last year for a night after vacating my
apartment and at that time I was able to obtain a light "supper" in the Lounge
however this seems to have been discontinued. I can't believe a hotel of your
size couldn't make some provisions for serving an evening meal - there are a
number of quick entrees that just need micro-waving and could be served with a
quick salad which would be more than adequate and not require a fully- qualified
chef. It was pouring rain and I didn't feel like going down the street to the
recommended restaurant and the 10% off ticket given by the front desk only
applied to full priced meals which I didn't want so this wasn't much help.

Our stay was a good experience. The bed was comfortable, the location is
convenient and quiet. Perfect location to go for a nice walk around the harbour.
Lots of shopping within walking distance. It was nice to stay at a hotel and not
have to pay for parking. As far as I'm concerned parking should be a perk to
staying at a hotel. Thank you and we will stay again.

beds are HARD
Location is great and the price is right. Hotel is fine except for the beds.
Beds are beyond bad and need to be replaced. So hard that the next morning, with
a sore back, I went out to ask the housekeeper if all the beds are like that.
She said yes but you can call for a foam pad.... Foam pads made them tolerable.

Nice Place
Excellent price for a very nice hotel - a bit older but great rooms, good
restaurant and fantastic location I wish I'd found this hotel years ago -
excellent service, basic but very nice room and THE best shower/water pressure
I've experienced in a long time. I found a very reasonable rate on
www.allure-hotels.com
Convenient to all the tourist stuff but also close enough to Superior Street to
bypass and avoid that harbour traffic
