We had a room block for our wedding at the Embassy Suites. All of our guests had nothing but good things to stay about the hotel and the staff!

The Embassy Suites was a wonderful place for my wedding reception. The staff was friendly and quick to answer my questions. The location is great and they have an airport shuttle. The food was delicious and the price was a good value after researching many venues in the triangle area. Several of my guests were here from out of town and were able to book their rooms at an affordable rate with that was offered. We also enjoyed being able to gather in there very large atrium before and after the wedding.

The Embassy Suites helped me create an absolutely beautiful reception. The people there are extremely helpful and prompt in getting back to you. I invited about 300 people and a little over 200 attended and the event planners (I had two people helping me) didn't blink an eye when the number changed the night before. Throughout my reception, Paula was there to handle all the details and move the evening along. It was phenomenal and the food was SO GOOD. Everyone raved about the food - especially the chicken! I loved that everything happened in one room - the eating, dancing, getting drinks from the bar, etc. It made everyone feel like a big part of the night, as opposed to having family and the bridal party in one section and friends and friends of friends in another section. It was wonderful!
