Our hotel stay was hosted but all opinion are of my own.
2020 was the year I wanted to travel as a family. COVID came and it quickly changed the game. After seven long months we finally had a weekend get away. The kids were so excited for the vacation but they had no idea we would be going to the beach. We headed to Wilmington for Halloween weekend and had a hosted stay at Embassy Suites by Hilton Wilmington Riverfront
With this being the kids first time out during COVID I was a tad bit nervous but Embassy Suites reassured that they are taking all safety precautions to keep all guest and staff safe during this time.
Safety
Mask are to be worn in all public spaces including the elevators. The workout space is still open however only 3 guest at a time. The gym is very spacious allowing enough pace to still practice social distancing. Pools are open with a limit of 5 guest with a 1 hour limit. Entering the hotel they have enforced wearing a mask in public areas. There were also several sanitizing stations throughout the hotel.
Dining
There are two restaurants within the hotel. Bar 9 and Steam which they are still practicing social distancing measures. The hotel does offer a complimentary happy hour but at the moment options were limited. complimentary Breakfast is a grab and go option and is still delicious as if it was on the hot bar. The lobby also has a coffee shop with a few Starbucks option as well as a mini shop with snack for purchase.
Rooms
With the safety measures in place housekeep doesn’t come to rooms during your stay. You are able to request items from the front desk. The rooms are really spacious. We stayed in the 2 queen bed suite- river view and the room was so spacious. I love that the bed room closed off from the living room area. The bathroom was a really nice size and the showerhead came with different settings. We also had a mini fridge, microwave, sink, and coffee bar.
The view was everything! Location is always key when traveling and the hotel was within walking distance to the historic Wilmington down town area. If you missed it be sure to check out my highlights on Instagram. Thank you again Embassy Suites for hosting my family we had an amazing time.
