We’ve come here a few years in a row now, and we’ll most likely be back! Staff was mostly very helpful and polite. We like the setup in the water and close to old Wilmington so we can easily walk and explore all it has to offer! So glad to have discovered this hotel. Didn’t really like the barking dog in the room next door, but otherwise another great stay.

We very much enjoyed our stay at the Embassy Suites in Wilmington. The location was convenient to our activities and had some great amenities like the pool, restaurants and bar located on property. Most of the staff we interacted with were helpful and friendly. My only critique was for the Front Desk staff. While they were not outright rude, they were not very welcoming. I never once received a smile or "welcome in" from anyone working the front desk. The automated text messaging service was more friendly than the front desk staff. Thankfully that demeanor did not translate to the rest of the staff who were all very welcoming and kind.

The property is close to the RiverWalk and lots of shops/site seeing. The hotel feels secure and clean. The three star rating is due the breakfast bot being good...from the coffee to the pancakes, there are too many local places to eat that are good to waste time at the hotel. The man that checked us in felt disinterested, barely made eye contact with us and it felt more like ge was doing US a favor. I would've have mentioned it except he was nicer to other guests. I looked like a bum after driving 9 hours to get there and he treated us accordingly, which I did not appreciate.

I enjoyed the manager's reception and the convenience of the parking deck to the hotel. It's very convenient to the Riverwalk. I was a bit disappointed in the breakfast. There was a lot of items not available and what was available was cold. This was quite different from past stays where the food was excellent. I guess we all have bad days. Overall it was a positive experience.
