Location was very convenient. Great breakfast. Room was large and air conditioning struggled to cool the bedroom. Bathroom and balcony both could’ve been a bit bigger for comfort. Overall, nice stay.

We had a great stay at embassy inn. Its clean, very close to everything, the parking is free. There's also complimentary breakfast, which was quite good, with options. You won't find free parking and free breakfast included anywhere else. The staff were all very friendly. It was a great little gem near the inner harbor, and ferries. Will stay again!

Embassy Inn was a pleasant surprise for us. The hotel is located just near the Parliament, within walking distance to restaurants, shops, tourist areas, museums….The property is well maintained and the room we had was comfortable, with a small balcony and views toward downtown. The staff is friendly and professional. A special recognition for the room cleanliness which added to our overall experience. The room rate included the parking and breakfast (a more than decent one as we found) which was one of the reasons we originally decided to book this hotel.

The Embassy Inn is a nice hotel, dated like going to your grandparents home, clean and tidy just, maintained very well not run down at all it just seems like your at your grandparents home. It’s in a very convenient location with the downtown are and the harbor. We parked the car and walked everywhere. I would definitely recommend. The breakfast is also very good, lots of hot options as well as cereal, yogurt and all the standard options.
