We stayed in March, at low season, and it was an inexpensive option, and close to downtown, Parliament, the Museum, inner harbour, restaurants, theatres. But, it is getting a bit frayed and could use some improvement. There may well be better deals to be had downtown on the off season. Complaints: the room quality is going down hill (I have... More

My friend and I were having a weekend getaway in Victoria and chose the Embassy Inn because of its location and price (and free breakfast!) The location was better than we could have imagined, especially to the harbor/ferry area. It was literally across the street from the Parliament building and about a 3 minute walk to the ferry. The location... More

The Embassy is in a great location, just one block back from the harbour and next door to the BC Parliament Buildings. Easy to find and lots of parking if you have a car. Reception were welcoming and helpful with recommendations on restaurants and getting around. The room was well-equipped and spacious, not fancy (no fridge) but had everything we... More

We were looking for a reasonably priced hotel in downtown Victoria and found the Embassy Inn to be very well priced. I found that if I clicked on get best deals in came up 79.00/night. If you are looking for a hotel in the downtown or close to downtown area of Victoria this price is exceptionally cheap. The good: breakfast... More

We spent two nights at the Embassy. Great location at a great price - Victoria can be expensive. The staff at the front desk and the restaurant were very pleasant and helpful. The breakfast was really good. Everywhere was kept very clean. Note, the restaurant serves breakfast and lunch but not dinner. I was disappointed due to the fact I... More

The staff were all very cordial, welcoming and helpful. As an aside, the laundry facility for guests was SPOTLESS - an important factor for us on our 6 week driving holiday. The included breakfast...

Room small but comfortable. Complimentary Breakfast buffet was good and filling. Staff was pleasant and helpful. Cons: Beds were kinda hard. The rooms lacked fridge or microwave. Our room had...

We've been staying at the Embassy for a few years, now. While it is not what you'd call "fancy", it certainly isn't "plain", either -- and the location's just great. Consistently clean, staff friendly & helpful, & breakfast in their restaurant was yummy. We pay less but don't feel we receive less.

Booked online with Hotelsdotcom, paid in full, however, when I booked out the desk clerk told me I owed $1.41 for taxes because BC switch taxes during my stay. I questioned the ethics of re-charging me after I already paid in full, but he said it was the government's fault. I've spent years serving the public, in my business "the... More
