Stayed in early May for 2 nights to go whale watching. Location is great, short walk to the harbour but outside of downtown. Was perfect for us to be able to go for a run from the hotel without having to contend with downtown traffic or people. Staff were friendly and helpful, we requested a room change due to the... More

When I got here from the US they have me the keys to the room. I brought my fiancé here to have some fun with here on business. When we got to the room it smelled like mildew and looked like a cheap motel room with furniture that was cheap from the 80's...scratched up and dirty and when you pull... More

We visited the Embassy Inn for 2 nights as part of a trip to Victoria to try a different room/suite hotel from our usual haunt. The price was right, the room was clean, the bed comfortable and the staff friendy. The location is excellent since it is just behind the legislature and steps away from the harbour. It is a... More

Nice room, very good value for price, free parking in downtown is impossible to find! Great location, so near everything and easy to walk. When we checked in, the front desk staff member admitted that he was new and had to ask a supervisor for an answer to a question we had, but was so friendly and helpful that it... More

For our first ever trip to Victoria BC, We were lucky enough to snag a last-minute room at the Embassy Inn for Labor Day weekend. It wasn't our first choice, but it was the best choice for the price on a busy weekend. We were pleasantly surprised. The room is nothing special or huge, but it was roomy enough for... More

This property was easy to get too once we got off the ferry. It is within walking distance of most of the attractions and shopping. The room was clean and comfortable. Breakfast was not included, and was a bit pricey, but was very good. We had a room on the side with a large parking lot and farmers market. Not... More

For $110 we got a great room with complete eat in kitchen, two queen beds (a bit on the firm side). There was a second door opening to the flowered courtyard leading to the outdoor pool that had an 8' deep end! The hotel is was clean and well kept if not brand new in a wonderful location just steps... More

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... More

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... More
