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

We would definitely recommend the Ambassador Hotel to anyone visiting Istanbul. The hotel is in a fantastic location, the rooms were modern and clean, the staff is helpful and the view from the cafe (breakfast) was fantastic. We're very glad we found it and would stay there again. Having read the reviews and knowing I prefer a larger room, we... More

The Ambassador Hotel offers a view that truly unbeatable. From the terrace you can see the Blue Mosque, the Hagia Sofia, and the Sea of Marmara. It is an amazing way to begin and end your day in Istanbul. A two minute walk to the mosque or museum, 15-20 minutes walk to the spice market or grand bazaar. The staff... More

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
