After reading some of the reviews on Tripadvisor before arrival we had some reservations, however these were largely unfounded, but the plumbing is certainly ready for replacement.Very friendly and helpful staff and dinner and breakfast were of good quality and value.Well worth another visit and well worth a three star rating.

Our group of 40 Rotarians and their partners were the other big party at the Ambassador on 11/12 May. We shared the dining room with Kirsty A and her family, and we were equally pleased with the quality of the dinner offering, and the hotel staff's attentive and quick service, even with the dining room packed out. They must train... More

During a recent break in the bad weather we decided to visit my old home town of Scarborough and what better place to stay than the Ambassador Spa hotel, located on the centre of The Esplanade on the bank holiday weekend of 03-06 May, 2012. We had heard of the recent extensive refurbishment of its public rooms and bedrooms to... More

We went to scarbrough for a relaxing weekend. Our room was on the third floor and we were hit by the smell of a strong smoke aroma and the room was very small and had two single beds which was disapointing. We complained to reception and luckily they were helpful and moved us into a better room. The spa is... More

Later on I find my friends staying at another hotel for half the price but with dinner as well as breakfast but they did not have a pool etc., I was originally allocated a 3rd floor... More

We have just returned from a weekend in Scarborough at the Ambassador hotel,(22nd April 2012) where we have stayed on 9 separate occassions over the last three years and have always had a most wonderful time. However this time it has changed to a "Spa Hotel" and it is most definately not a change for the better. We arrived with... More
