Catering Director was easy to work with and always available.
Food was absolutely fabulous.
Out of town guests were very pleased with hotel staff and availability of shuttle services to get to and from airport as well as to and from ceremony and mall. Everyone encountered was friendly, curteous and easy to work with.

Kyle Adams at Embassy is the best. She was amazing in making our wedding everything we hoped it would be and more. I cannot say enough good things about her and the entire staff at Embassy. I would highly recommend them for a venue.

The Embassy Suites at Crabtree was a beautiful venue that helped us to create an elegant and romantic ceremony. The atrium style venue is so beautiful that there is minimal need for decor for the ceremony. The service and follow up by Kyle Adams and the chef was excellent. Kyle was wonderful to work with on my wedding day when my family's anxieties made things a bit chaotic at times before the wedding. The final outcome of our wedding day was perfect and we have been told by quite a few people that it was one of the nicest weddings that they have ever attended. The food was excellent and the staff of the Embassy Suites are extremely professional and efficient. We enjoyed the convenience of having the venue, reception and our hotel room (included in the wedding package) conveniently close together.

We stayed at the Embassy Suites, Crabtree in Raleigh for 5 days as our daughter got married over the labor day weekend. We have about 63 rooms which included many of our guests. We had a great experience. The breakfast was amazing, the staff courteous and responsive, the spacious foyer a great place hanging out place for our friends. The rooms were very spacious and comfortable. We had the rehearsal dinner at the ball room and pergola which was beautifully decorated for the occasion. All in all a great experience. Will stay again for sure. Loved it!!!!!!!!!

Hotel is nice and not outrageously priced, which is what we wanted. Breakfast was delicious.
There was a gift basket in our room with some chocolates, champagne, toasting glasses, and lotion.
Room was clean and spacious. The hotel was under construction but we were made aware of that and there was not problem with noise since it was a weekend.

We were very pleased with our vendor's services and would highly recommend the Embassy Suites if you are looking for a reception site. Kyle Adams was wonderful and on top of everything. Everything was ready when we arrived from the church and have heard great things from our guests. We'd give 2 thumbs up.

The hotel is undergoing some major changes and I am hoping events in the future will be much better. Our wedding was small 50 people so we requested the smaller room, however the a/c couldn't handle the amount of people in the room. Once we had some fans put in during the dancing part it was much better. That was the only problem. The staff was very flexible and assisted with all our needs. It was very nice to host the event at the hotel due to the amount of guest we had coming that were not local. They all booked rooms and we were able to celebrate and say good by and thanks the next morning for breakfast. Looking forward to seeing the newly remodeled hotel.
