We are Hilton Diamond members so always try to stay with the Hilton Family of Hotels when we travel. For this quick weekend trip to Williamsburg we were traveling with our two daughters as well as another family with two kids so we opted for Embassy because we like the pretty standard one bedroom suite options. For this stay we were also able to get an adjoining room with the other family. Check in was super easy and the front desk staff was pleasant. It’s a nice lobby with the restaurant and bar area right after you pass the desk in an open atrium area. Each floor forms a ring around it looking down. The pool area is okay if a little sparse. Only a handful of chairs. At one point the had a hot tub (according to pictures) and we had been looking forward to after a day spent at Busch Gardens but apparently it was taken out at some point. Bummer. The reason I gave this hotel three stars instead of four is two reasons. The room sizes were cramped. We didn’t expect a ton of space but we’ve stayed at a number of Embassy suites and these ones are just small. I’m talking two people can’t comfortably pass each other if trying to walk between the base of the bed and the dresser in the bedroom. Or even when between the beds. Which leads to the second reason for three stars. One of the beds had a broken (sharp)part of the bed frame exposed and sticking out. When my husband trident slide behind me as I was leaning over the bed getting something from our suitcase, he sliced his lower leg open on it and instantly started bleeding pretty good. We called sown ti the front desk for a band aid and some antiseptic ointment but they never showed or brought it. They seemed almost indifferent to the fact that it even happened when he called. Luckily the friends we were traveling with had a bandaid he could use after the bleeding stopped and he got it cleaned up. The next morning we went down for their breakfast buffet. And this is the reason the review is saved and still solidly at 3 stars (might have even bumped it to a 4 if not for the injury). The buffet is one of the better ones we’ve had at a hotel. And it is included with your stay. All of the staff were very friendly and helpful, the woman making the omelettes was great and the omelet was loaded and tasty! We for downstairs at a busy time but they kept replenishing so no food ran out. We would probably stay here again but maybe not tonight it’s so many people as there simply isn’t space for it.

“So-so”

Room is very nice, bed was comfortable, but the shower kind of weak. I was very disappointed with the breakfast. Very small bowls to allow maybe two spoonfuls of cereal or oatmeal.

Room is very nice, bed was comfortable, but the shower kind of weak. I was very disappointed with the breakfast. Very small bowls to allow maybe two spoonfuls of cereal or oatmeal. The eggs are overcooked. The bacon and sausage are awful. The omlets are decent, but they water down the egg batter so the omlets are very thin. The Hampton offers a much better breakfast.
