Nice place to stay. The location is great if you’re taking the ferry from Washington. It’s a 5 minute walk from the terminal. Breakfast was good, with lots of options.

For a bit of an outdated looking exterior, the Embassy Inn was clean and updated on the inside. Beautiful, clean rooms, friendly staffand one of the jicest continental breakfasts I've ever experienced. The locatiin was great in Victoria's Inner Harbour, and across the street from the Parlament building. While Parking was only $15 for a one night stay,we weren't expecting a fee at all, as i recall, it said it was free, when searching online. Overall, it was a great hotel and i would stay there again in the future!
