“Expectations Exceeded!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 26 October 2011
1
person found this review helpful

We love staying at the Ambassador hotel! The location is centrally located, yet is quiet. The rooms are beautiful and the beds are a dream. They provide all the amenities to make your stay enjoyable including a nescafe espresso machine in the room. You get the views of lake Zurich and easy access to the altstadt (old city). Great restaurants nearby and is right across the street from the Opera. I would highly recommend staying here and look forward to our next visit.

Room Tip: Higher floors have better views. Both the single and double rooms are nice depending on your needs.

“Beautiful hotel, well situated”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 12 September 2011

Stayed here with my husband for 2 days. Lovely hotel with very helpful staff. We had dinner in the hotel restaurant and it was excellent....much cheaper than some of the other " Swiss " style restaurants in Zurich. We were sorry to leave!

“Perfect in every Way”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 22 August 2011

Centrally located near tram and train and lake. Easy to and from the airport. Outstanding staff, exceptionally clean and comfortable rooms. the front desk staff is ready and willing to answer every question and help with directions. My only wish is that there was a small fitness center....but walking or running along the lake is a minute away.
