I like where the hotel is located in downtown Wilmington. The only thing is that parking is not free. The staff was friendly. Also the breakfast is nice and made to order omelets were great. I was surprised that didn’t have out a diary alternative at the coffee station. I didn’t ask, but I maybe they have upon request.

Wilmington is a nice little town and The Embassy Suites made our stay having a wonderful experience. I was a little disappointed with the parking lot because it was too expensive, unfortunately there was no where to park near to the hotel .

I didn't stay. I made a mistake in making two reservations one for 6/9-6/10 and one for 7/9-7/10 . I only needed 7/9-7/10. Had idea there was two reservations. There was a no show and we were charged because of the no show. Not able to get refunded.

We loved the room. Everything was clean and neat. The common areas were awkwardly quiet. The reception area could have used some background music or even white noise. People who were there waiting on a high energy concert were speaking in hushed tones. For people who want a very serene atmosphere, this is it. Also, the pool area--while very clean--is virtually non-descript. Not inviting, echoey. But absolutely met the requirements, just no positive personality.

Very nice hotel, staff was fine. Way overcharge for their “shop” with no prices, so just don’t. Room was nice and clear, but walls are super thin and had a very rowdy set of neighbors. Breakfast is awesome

Location, cleanliness, brand Pillows were horrible and it made it very hard to sleep. They were too small and none satisfied me. The parking garage was not horrible but there’s no signage. Load in and out was hard

The pool was nice, although it looked a little bigger in the photos. The location was one of the best parts of the stay. The views were great, downtown was within walking distance, and it was easy to get to restaurants, shops, and attractions. Wrightsville Beach was also only a short drive away, which made it convenient to enjoy both the beach and downtown during the trip. My only criticism is that the property could have been cleaner, especially considering the price and overall appearance of the hotel. Even so, I had a very enjoyable stay and would consider staying here again.

Excellent hotel! Clean, beautiful. Rooms were large and luxurious. Free breakfast buffet was very good. Only suggestion I would give about the buffet is there's no large glasses in order to get water. In fact, there's no way to get water at all. Hotel is in a great location right on the river with access to the Boardwalk. Boardwalk will take you all up and down the river and to the historic area. I would highly recommend this hotel to anyone.

The gentleman who checked me in was great! The beds in room 606 were horrible. Too soft & I rolled into the middle. I woke up stiff every day. There was a funny smell and I woke up with a sinus headache, so I assume there is mold. The shower temperature was hard to regular. I ordered room service and the soup was luke warm, which was ok since they gave me a plastic spoon. I had dinner in the restaurant and the chair was full of crumbs, which the server let me brush off myself. The table was sticky from what appeared to be syrup spilled at breakfast and I squashed a bug. I expected more from a restaurant that was $20+ per meal. I will say order bread, it is excellent. The toast points were hard and burnt. To top everything off, I was billed $30 more then what was the receipt, so now I need to file a dispute. Lastly, I expected a nice patio facing the river, but the patio was small and faced condos, Fortunately, the building next door next had really comfy chairs that faced the water. So that was nice.

When spending the extra money on a riverview suite, be sure to ask them if it's a full or partial view. I was switched from my double queen to a single king and the riverview I paid extra for was barely visible. 90% of my "view" was the parking lot and building beside the property. The happy hour was mediocre with crackers, cheese, salsa, and tortilla chips. There was also a bowl of trail mix. There was limited seating so I ended up standing along the wall to eat. The breakfast was pretty much what you would expect from any major brand hotel offering a 'hot breakfast". Eggs, bacon, cereal, bagels... the norm. They did have a made-to-order omelette station which is typical for Embassy Suites. With the hotel being in such a nice area, I expected more as I have visited mulitple Embassy Suites across the country. This one was just ok.

The location was great and the staff was friendly. Housekeeping was substandard. The supplied conditioner was empty. After the second day, I had to call front desk. Our coffee and supplies were not refilled each day. The glasses were not replaced with fresh ones. Our breakfast dishes were left in the sink the entire stay. The only thing housekeeping did was empty our garbage cans each day.

Everything was great, property was well kept, staff was super nice. Rooftop bar and restaurant were fun. EV charging for my Tesla in their parking garage. Only minor inconvenience was no charging ports on the nightstands, only had a couple ports on the table lamp. But thats nit picking. I would book again and just bring my outlet charger.

This hotel is right on the Riverwalk. The breakfast is excellent with fresh made omelettes available as well as many other choices. The hotel is bright and airy, and the rooms are in great condition. The only complaint that I would have is in the gym and in the access to outdoor space and there’s a small area to sit outside in, but otherwise there’s no place to just sit outside and look at the beautiful view. Unless of course it’s 4 o’clock and the rooftop bar happens to be open, but you can’t bring your family up there. The hotel should provide an outdoor space that is family friendly. A place where you can go and read a book or get some work done if you’re on a business trip, this does not exist in this hotel. In addition, the Peleton bike was not hooked up to the corporate account so it’s kind of worthless unless you have a Peloton membership and the staff had no idea how to deal with it because it’s an outside consultant taking care of it. Otherwise, it’s a great place. The pool is indoor take note.

Location is central in Wilmington. Located near the Riverwalk, Live Oak Pavillion many restaurants and downtown. Pretty much everything is walking distance. The staff was very friendly and professional. The hotel was exceptionally clean. The room was spacious and had all items needed, like in room fridge, iron, blow dryer. Valet parking is available. There is also a rooftop bar and restaurants. While there, ate at the 2nd floor restaurant the food was amazing and the drinks were very good. Nothing. Loved everything.

The hotel and the view are both wonderful. The restaurant and on-site bar are both very spacious with excellent service. The breakfast offered was one of the best we have ever had while on vacation! The convenience to the Riverwalk, shops and restaurants were also added benefits of the hotels location! There was some areas of the bathroom that could have been cleaned better - and the bed and pillows were not that comfortable. The bed I would rate higher than the pillows, but overall neither great for restful sleep.

We have now had several occasions to stay at this property. Besides being centrally located in the vibrant heart of the riverfront area it is, in and of itself, a quality hotel of the first order, with a helpful staff and great amenities. Very close to just about anything you might like to see and do in Wilmington or, on a rainy day, very much a destination in itself, including a quite nice restaurant. Highly recommended.

The breakfast each day was absolutely awesome. Only one bad experience with one of the staff on the Monday morning. She ask for our pass for breakfast (which was the only time out of 4 mornings the card was checked) and became a little rude when I explained I left it in the room. After explanning this was the first time we had been ask for the card, she said I had to produce it in order to eat. It didn’t matter that my wife and daughter was there with me and they both had their card. That was a little annoying.

I didnt like the fact that on Saturday i made contact with the front desk about the smell of Mary Jane in the Hall and my room 510 was very strong. It was so bad that it gave me a migrain headache and it was all i could do to sleep. The room still smelled as it came thru the room vents and the odor was bad. When i went to check out on Sunday i made sure to tell the gentalman about it again and that i made contact the night before. He said thank you for letting him know and that the account was not noted. I told him i didnt want to pay for something i did not do.

when i originally booked the room it was for the 10-12th of April. I contacted the property about adding another day. I was told to book it again for the 9th thru the 10th. I was told i could merge the bookings. Before arrival i contacted the front desk since no one contacted me back. Spoke to them and i could merge for a fee due to it being a river view but would have an upcharge for the two nights. I choose to stay in the regular room but was not given a credit back for the one night i down graded.

Free breakfast is assumed to include meats. If you keep them behind plexiglass with no attendant, saving food cost but disappointing guests. Most won’t ask. Any other breakfast has the meats out on the buffet for us to serve ourselves. Ensure the beverage stations are supplied. Of the 12 taps at 9am all the juices likely out dispensing only water. Again. Saving costs. Disappointing guests. Hair nets or hats for food handlers?? NC health dept code.

This was the first hotel that we’ve stayed at in a long time where from beginning to end was all very good.

However, we will return and stay at this hotel again later this year.

The advertising said it was a river walk view but the two windows looked out on two walls. Maybe because of this the lighting in the room was dim; the lights were not bright enough without daylight. Breakfast was great and the two free drinks each evening made everything else wonderful.

The only negative bump in the road was the breakfast omelette chief on Monday morning seemed to be bothered that he was on duty and a general bad attitude towards us ordering our omelette.

We went at peak times and still were able to get a table and the lines were not too long. Staff were so friendly and accommodating. Highly recommend.

We were out early morning and out the whole day and when we came back, the room and bathroom not cleaned at all. The breakfast was not great. The staff making omelet was also grumpy and you have to ask for bacon and sausage. It was not on the buffet table.overall breakfast was mediocre. The hotel should ask tips on how to run a hotel from embassy suites hotel San Antonio Riverwalk. That embassy suites knows how to run a hotel.

We arrived a little early and we were told our room was not ready and would be ready in 20 to 30 minutes. We went to have a drink and came back in an hour. Room still not ready. Not allowed to park there so left again. Got a call the room was ready. Returned to almost nowhere to unload. There is only a small circle at the entrance to unload and the parking is in a garage around the block. Nothing they can do about this, but just be aware of it when you book. Room was okay, but no space to hang clothes and view of the parking garage. Included breakfast had a nice omelet bar and limited other choices. Only fruit was cantaloupe and watermelon. Would have been nice to have blueberries, strawberries, grapes or something to put on my cereal. I appreciated they included 2 drinks per day per person at an afternoon happy hour. This was an unexpected plus. In the morning I brought the car from the parking lot to the entrance to load it. The attendant approached and I told him I was just loading. As I entered the hotel another attendant asked for my key. I told him I was just loading. He again insisted. I repeated I was just loading and pointed out I was the only car there. He said it was procedure and he needed my keys. I ignored him and got our luggage and came back to load. Still the only car there.

We ended up leaving a day early for two events: first, the next door occupants were up until late into the early morning; second, the air conditioning went out around midnight. When we went down to the desk to explain, they were basically like "just check out". We were never offered another room or anything.

We had a queen suite. The perfect setup- comfortable beds. The breakfast was AMAZING. Order omelettes to your personal specifications. Friendly staff. Super clean comfortable beds. On an amazing boardwalk of river. Amazing dining area. Two things that were somewhat of a concern however I will mention them briefly as I don’t want to take away that this is a must stay. 1. Housekeeping mishap. I want to return to my room with beds changed and be able to tell someone has cleaned the room. Manager handled situation with grace and understanding 2. Had beautiful breakfast this morning. A homeless person had somehow gotten up onto the dining floor. A woman confronted him in front of everyone and told him the breakfast was for guests only( I understand the policy) I just felt this could have been handled better. She kind of humiliated him in front of everyone. I almost said he was with me lol but didn’t think quick enough. Again while I understand the policy I think management could have dealt with this as he exited the lobby. Shrug But overall 5 plus stars

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.

We stayed in a river view two room suite. It was perfect for my wife, me, and my three boys. There are at least a dozen walkable restaurants, shopping, and a train museum right next door.

One of the highlights was the free made-to-order breakfast every morning, which offered a wide variety of options and tasted amazing.

The location is also ideal, situated right on the riverfront in a vibrant area with plenty to see and do. Highly recommend for both leisure and business travelers!
