We spent five nights at the Ambassador and thoroughly enjoyed our visit. The sent a driver, free of charge to pick us up at the airport and deliver us to the hotel. It is true the rooms are quite small (at least ours was) but the location is perfect for exploring the Sultanahmet and the terrace bar is truly wonderful,... More

For our first trip to Istanbul, we stayed at the Ambassador hotel. I highly recommend it. The location, quality, and the service were all excellent. The location in the heart of Sultanahmet was ideal, with all of the major sites within easy walking distance. The rooms were clean, attractive, and well organized. Though small by American standards, they are typical... More

The staff is very hospitable. The front desk staff is friendly and knowledgeable. They made great suggestions about tours. Breakfast was delicious. The rooms were very clean. The location is very convienient for touring historic sites.

I've stayed at some great hotels, The Mayfair, Atlantis, Savoy etc, I rarely write reviews but it's no exaggeration when I say the service here was the best we've ever had, it was personal and friendly. Rooms are small but adequate but the location makes up for that with the terrace but the quality here is the Service. I stayed... More
