Hotel Review

We were not impressed with the Hyatt on Capital Hill, DC, but we've had nothing but good experiences with the Embassy Suites in NYC. This hotel is located in the financial district, within walking distance of the World Trade Center, in the Battery Park area. The area is wonderful, right on the Riverwalk, and is a great area for strolling, walking, jogging and watching the harbor skyline at night.

The hotel rooms have plenty of breathing room. The four of us stayed in one room and never felt cramped or crowded. A complimentary made-to-order breakfast is included along with a complimentary Manager's reception of free drinks and snacks each evening. The linens were great (at least a 450 count sheet set) and the beds very comfortable.

The staff here are very helpful and often even entertaining. My DD's consider Soloman who works out front to be not only funny, but their NYC friend. The concierges have been a great resource and have even been instrumental in getting Katelyn over her fear of NYC. She's now roaming around like a NYC native! :)

The girls enjoyed having 5 restaurants and a GIGANTIC movie theater on site during the rainy times of our stay. They also enjoyed watching the boats come in and out of the harbor each morning and night. And of course, they have drank more "Shirley Temples" each night during the Manager's Receptions than they've drank in their entire lives! *LOL*

If and when we return to NYC again, we'll definitely be staying here.
