Embassy Suites Hotel New York - intro

1 of 10

Embassy Suites bills itself as "the largest all-suite, upscale hotel chain" in the US, and the Embassy Suites Hotel New York is a flagship property.

Location is in Lower Manhattan's Battery Park City, a choice spot for families: right outside the hotel doors are several park areas, including a giant playground and a riverside walkway. All that greenspace in Manhattan: who woulda thought? Yet you're close to Wall Street and Tribeca, and a convenient subway to uptown; see more about location on pages below.

Other pluses for families:

  • huge complimentary breakfast daily
  • "Managers Reception" every evening, i.e., complimentary snacks and drinks
  • kids up to 18 stay free in parents' room
  • packages that bundle kid-friendly activities, such as Build-A-Bear or The Beast speedboat harbor tour
  • "Kids Eye View" suggestions about family fun and sightseeing.
