About the neighborhood

Located near the beach, Embassy Inn is in James Bay, a neighborhood in Victoria. Butchart Gardens is a popular area attraction and if an activity is on the agenda, Victoria Clipper Ferry Terminal and Fisherman's Wharf Marina are worth checking out. Victoria Harbour and Royal BC Museum are two other places to visit that come recommended. Kayaking and scuba diving offer great chances to get out on the surrounding water, or you can seek out an adventure with hiking/biking trails and mountain biking nearby. Guests love the hotel's central location. Visit our Victoria travel guide

We stayed as a family for 6 nights. The staff were all really wonderful, the room and common areas were nice and clean and the location of the hotel is ideal for easy access to the waterfront, the museum and downtown. The breakfast was good and had a little something for everyone. I would recommend this hotel and would stay here again.
