Dated but our stay was great. Great location right down by the harbour and walkable to the downtown centre. They allowed us to bring our bikes into our room. One of the better buffet breakfasts I’ve had.

The Embassy Inn is a great place to stay if you are on foot and arrive/depart from the Inner Harbor. My 2 sisters and I came via BlackBall Coho Ferry from Port Angeles and it was great to have a 5 minute walk to the hotel. The staff were very helpful answering a few questions, the breakfast included with our room was excellent, everything in our room functioned well except for the Keurig Coffee machine (alas!), and the grounds were beautiful--we even had a wonderful show out our window by 4 deer who were feeding on the lovely landscaping!

The location can't be beat! By the Inner Harbour, next to the Legislature and a short walk to the Empress Hotel, you get the feeling you are in the center of everything. A leisurely 15-minute walk takes you to the City Centre and Chinatown. And the Embassy Hotel's hot buffet breakfast gives you a good start on the day.
