Nicole's Review:
3 stars. Ayres is pretty classy for its price range. The furniture isn't tacky and the suite feels a lot more like a hotel than your average Holiday Inn.

Embassy Suites

Tel: (800) EMBASSY / (714) 990-6000

Location:
Just off the CA-57 freeway. Next door to Brea Mall, 7 miles from the church, 25 miles from Ontario International Airport (ONT), and 40 miles from Los Angeles International Airport (LAX).

Notes:
This is where the bridal party will be getting ready on the day of the wedding, and where the bride and groom will be staying after the reception.

Nicole's Review:
3.5 stars. A part of the Hilton Family, this is the most picturesque hotel that we could find near the church. I'd say this is a decent price for this hotel considering it's right beside the mall as well as the Diamonds Billiard Club. Eat, shop, shoot some pool, stumble home drunk, and pass out. What more do you need?

Julian's Review:
I particularly like Embassy and will probably push for my family to stay here during the weekend too. I also like their bathrooms, which were laid out in granite (or something like that) compared to the usual tiles and plastic-looking bathtub.

Reservations:
We have not reserved any rooms except our own because they make us liable for 80% of the rooms that we reserve, and the group rate they offered us wasn't any different from the standard rate anyway. Standard suites start at $128*.

To make your own reservations, please call their toll-free number at 1-800-EMBASSY (1-800-362-2779) or visit their website.
