I stayed two nights at the Embassy Suites Sacramento to check out the local college. My original intention was to use the self parking though because I could not find the lot I just used valet (even after tip valet is cheaper, however I don’t think you get in and out privileges). The bell and valet staffs seemed eager to help and were very informed when it came to directions and such.
The front desk was literally right in front of the entrance (just a couple steps). This was a poor design on their part because you always walked into a large crowed of people and a mess of luggage when walking to your room. As a gold member, per request, I was upgraded to a top floor river view.
The room was very new looking and was very nicely decorated. Marble counter tops, two closets, free internet, and a ceiling fan were just a few of the amenities I don’t see in every Embassy Suites.
The manager’s reception was standard affair. The bartenders were all very personable and were eager to have you try their custom mix drinks (Give them a try, their not bad). The breakfast was also standard affair. Cook to order omelets and everything else is buffet style.
The location was wonderful. Old Town was just across the street and when you walk to the front of the building you see out state’s capital on one side and the historic Tower Bridge on the other. On a side note, I highly recommend going to Joe’s Crab Shack just across the street on the water. The food was great, the prices were reasonable and it was just a fun place to eat. However the wait can be more than an hour (what we did was put our name down, went back to the hotel and had our free drinks at the manager’s reception and came back).
This had to be one of the best Embassy Suites I have ever stayed at. I loved sitting in the magnificent atrium while watching all of the different people come in and out. I would stay here again in a heartbeat.
