We spent 3 days here from 31 December 2011 to 3 January 2012. Our views about the hotel are somewhat mixed. On the positive side:
- very conveniently located, a short, level walk from the station
- friendly and helpful staff
- restaurant menu and food quite good
- self service buffet breakfast also good with selection of cold foods and availability of
scambled eggs and bacon
- excellent standards of cleanliness
On the negatve side:
- dismal, dreary rooms with dark, tired and worn furniture. Not the impression gained from the
website
- no proper lounge area for relaxing and reading, just a small settee ,chair and table in the
reception area
- uncomfortable seating in bar area
- partial closure of the hotel on 2 January -Christmas decorations taken down,restaurant
closed for evening dinner, bar closed so no means of getting a cup of tea on return from
a day out and no mention of this at the time of booking.
Overall we were very disappointed. Given the Ambassador is ranked 1st out of 12 hotels
in Brig on your site we are wondering if we went to the same hotel and what standards and facilities are like in other 3 star hotels.We also note that the reviews posted at the beginning of this section are generally very positive and we would suggest that a more balanced approach is taken.
