Ambassador Hotel Bangkok Reviews & Ratings

The Ambassador is in the process of renovation, and probably this should have been done before now !!

However with an excellent location and friendly staff, for the money it can not be faulted.

With the "in house" Dickens bar having very good live music every night, you need not go out all the time for entertainment.

One slight moan ........... reception needs speeding up for booking in and out.
All in all though, this is a very good value mid range hotel.

Good location. However, make sure you specify smoking or non-smoking room. The Hotel in my opinion is 2-stars but then again, for the price (which includes breakfast), you can't beat it. There is a service charge of 600 baht if you bring a guest to the room...NOT GOOD! Would I stay there again? Probably not, better to pay a little more for better rooms/service.

I've been a frequent traveler to Bangkok for nearly 18 years. I lived there for several years in the early 90's. Sadly, while enormous change has occurred throughout Thailand - The Ambassador has stood still. I stayed there last in 1993. 12 years later and they've done little or nothing to upgrade the hotel. It's still huge, but it's a mess. Dirty, worn carpet; the room was a mess, and the service never was very good. When I asked about arranging a car to Kanchanaburi for the day, the rude, vulgar man in the white uniform at the car service started yelling and insulting me when I said the price was too high and I might be back. He didn't know I speak Thai.

After 4 nights there, I checked out and went got a great room deal at the Landmark.

I honestly have no comment at all except, would like to personally thank the two male check-in staff for being so apologetic and courtesy by upgrading our room to a service apartment suite as our room have been taken up due to our late arrival (i.e. 11.30 pm) as a result of flight delay.

Thank you for handling the situation professionally.
