What guests think

Across reviews for Embassy Suites by Hilton Newark Wilmington South, guests often praise spacious suites, friendly staff, and complimentary made-to-order breakfast and evening reception, while recurring complaints cite an inoperable hot tub, cloudy pool, and slow or broken elevators.

Cleanliness and upkeep are mixed, with many noting clean rooms but others reporting stained furniture, moldy or dated bathrooms, and maintenance issues like nonworking TVs or room features. Noise from unsupervised children or events is a recurring concern, though some guests found the hotel quiet. The location is convenient for the University of Delaware and I‑95, and an attached TGI Fridays adds easy dining. Expect roomy suites and strong freebies, but aging facilities and inconsistent maintenance.

This place needs some major TLC. The pool was over chlorinated and hard to breathe in the area. Not well maintained. One of the elevators wasn’t working and the other one had been out of service for a month from what we were told. Took the stairs which is fine but there seemed to be only one staircase between all the floors. The pull out couch was an injury waiting to happen with a piece of metal sticking out. It was also the most uncomfortable to sleep on. The couch cushions were ripped as well. The bathroom had the bottom part of the door panel rusted out and gunk in the shower around the bar for help in/out of the shower. Breakfast was good and the main beds were comfortable. Will not stay again.

This is an older hotel and not what i expected. The beds were comfy, the rooms show signs of need to upgrade. The pool was down and not usable. I dont think I would have anyway as the pool room seemed very outdated and in need a huge update. The elevators, there were two. One was down. The other one had tape keeping the carpet down. The breakfast was the best part of it. Dont go to the attached TGIF it was friendly service but food gross

On the plus side: - Staff was very friendly - Breakfast and happy hour were excellent - Generally clean - Bedroom was dark as a tomb, fairly quiet Downsides unfortunately outweighed the postives: - Pool was so cloudy you couldn't see the 2nd step, and hot tub didn't work, was ice cold. VERY DISAPPOINTING. - Only one of two elevators working (apparently has been this way for months). It took over 20 minutes to get down to check out! - Lots of shabby areas that haven't been kept up well

I checked in to room 301 and as I entered the bathroom I was greeted by a roach crawling around the tub. I then went to front desk to complain about my findings. He then gave the keys to the room beneath the roach room just to find a bedbug crawling on the wall. I got no rest at this hotel as one would imagine. My staff was bitten in his room while I was trying to resolve our stay.

This was a great experience checked in and walked right into their happy hour which is very generous. My room was clean and spacious. Only the thing, the bathroom floor didn't appear to be swept or mopped which was minor (had my slippers on). Otherwise I really enjoyed my stay... definitely going again for just a me time visit.

The hotel desk people were wonderful. There was no housekeeping for my two night stay. The room was dirty. The toilet had paper under the lid hinges that had turned yellow. (Maybe to catch a leak??) There was hair in the shower, mold beginning to grow in the corners. The couch cushions had what looked like caked on chocolate spills? The carpet looked dirty. It really needed a deep cleaning!! The elevator had waded up paper and a used plastic cup.

My stay here was terrible! First of all check in was at 3pm we got there at 330pm after a 5 hour Drive. We were not able to check in because there were no rooms ready. Then once we checked in the room was filthy! The room smelled and was very stuffy. The curtains in the bedroom were coming down. The rug had several stains. The bathroom was filthy! It smelled of mildew or mold. The tub was dirty. The sink had hair and dirt in it. Around the toilet was dirty. There were boogers in the shower and on the wall. My overall experience here was terrible! And the pool was filthy and disgusting. The hot tub did not work. I would never stay here again!

The hotel failed to get us a crib several times. Then left us an unassembled pack and play. When we opened it up it was broken. Because we had to keep the baby in bed, we didn’t sleep for 3 days. When we talked to the hotel, they said it was on hotels.com. Even though the issue was their staff and service

The good: Easy parking in the lot. The complimentary breakfast was plentiful and fresh, and the staff in the dining area were lovely. The not so good: We had a King suite with 4 adults staying. The pull-out sofa did not have a blanket made with it or stored in the closet of the room. We called down to the front desk twice requesting a blanket & extra pillows but no one ever brought them up. We finally had to go down to the desk ourselves at 11pm to get a blanket so we could go to bed- very annoying. The sofa bed itself was terribly uncomfortable. They could put a mattress topper or something to keep guests from feeling the coils digging into their backs while attempting to sleep. Also, we were only given 2 bath towels for four guests. I think the housekeeping dept. is seriously lacking at this hotel, which is unfortunate as it is otherwise a nice building and is convenient to the stadiums.

I have done so in the past with not only this hotel, but other hotels within the Hilton honors program. Other than that, everything else was as expected as I’ve stayed here quite a few times. The breakfast was excellent, and the rooms were very comfortable today.

The breakfasts were wonderful, and the room was clean, comfortable and spacious. The staff was very polite and helpful. Only issue I had was for a few days one of the two elevators were out of service due to tile work being done on the lobby floor. A minor inconvenience, but made many elevator rides more packed. Would absolutely stay again though.
