Family Getaway

The staff at this hotel are very accomodating. The only downfall is that it seems like it isn't in a great location on the weekends. We saw a lot of police and people being arrested on the weekend. We also had 5 bus loads of teenagers when we arrived and it was a total zoo in the atrium. Once the weekend was over, the hotel was wonderful and the crime seemed to settle down as well. Very nice place for families that appreciate a suite. This hotel has it all. Free breakfast, microwave, refrigerator, and a managers reception each night with snacks and beverages. Nice pools (inside and outside) and a great hot tub. Valet parking is available if you prefer it.

Stay away from Magic Kingdom & Epcot at night if you don't like crowds. The crowd seemed to triple every night. This is most likely to watch the fireworks. If this is not important to you, don't plan to stay during the night to ride the rides.

Amazing!!!!

I loved Embassy Suites before I went, now I love them more! It was my honeymoon and we mentioned it when we checked in. An hour later, a knock at our door, a complimentary bottle of Champagne and chocolate covered strawberries from the awesome EXTREMELY courteous staff! The rooms are the biggest you'll find anywhere, the cleanest, 2 TV's(if you would ever need them) and breakfast is amazing and free every morning! For the value, why anyone stays anywhere else if an Embassy Suites is available is beyond me. It is right in the middle of all the best restaurants and shopping too.

3 night stay. This is an atrium hotel, the curtains do not cover the room's atrium windows well. The room had a smell, kept the window open during the day. Breakfast was good included with room. Free Snacks 530PM to 730 even better: beer, wine, mixed drinks with chips.

Very comfortable stay

This is my second time staying at an Embassy Suite Hotel chain in 2 different cities. Both stays were absolutely comfortable. The rooms with sofa, tv and desk makes a spacious area for business trips. Their complimentary breakfast is second to none with a generous managers reception as well. Rooms are clean, friendly staff and free parking. I would give a 5 star rating if there was free internet. I recommend this hotel chain for business travel any time, although family travel would also benefit from their room layout.

AMAZING!!!

It was our 18th wedding anniversary and we stayed for 3 days/2nights on Feb 12-14th, 2010. As we walked into the hotel, the lobby was spectacular to see. The elevators going up and down and the beautiful waterfall and park feel with gazebo in the middle. The staff were very friendly and checked us in immediately. As we walked to our room, we noticed the indoor pool and jacuzzis and the workout room. Everything was very clean and spotless. When we got to our room, it was very clean and the bed had a towel shaped into a swan, which was a unique touch. It reminded us of our cruise and trip to Sandals resort. The room was very spacious and had everything we needed for our stay. The bed was really comfortable and our little balcony overlooked the outside pool and jacuzzis. The great part about Embassy Suites is the cooked to order breakfast and manager's reception. The breakfast was amazing and had everything you could want for breakfast. From 5:30pm-7:30pm, they gave you free cocktails, beer or wine and had specialty non-alcoholic drinks for the kids too. You can't beat that! We drank to our hearts content and ate fresh popcorn and chips with dip in the courtyard. A very romantic feel indeed. I cannot wait to go back and will only stay at this hotel from now on. Alot of amenities for a great price!

Great food and atmosphere at the Brick House. Also across the street is Howl at the Moon live piano bar. You basically have everything within walking distance since you are on I-drive, but can take a trolley too.
