On the whole, I was very disappointed as the Hotel I saw on the internet was different from what I came in contact with. Is this not daylight robbery? I would rather prefer to see current pictures than something deceiving. I drove past the hotel as the picture in mind was different from what was seen. The SPA was great... More

The hotel is rather average. The pics on the website make it look better than it actually does when you see it for yourself. The room was OK (one of this wannabe modern 'designer rooms' where the bathroom is just way too close to the bed and the sink is outside of - I am not a big fan of... More

Stayed for 2 nights while on business. Though slightly out of reach from the city centre by foot, the hotel is located in a suburb of the Swiss capital. There's a very efficient tram system, and the stop is literally on the doorstep of the hotel. For a few CHF it takes you to the heart of the city in... More

We were on the 7th floor overlooking the city so superb views but, if you want the convenience of being 'in' the city, it's not for you. There's tram stop across the road though and it's a short journey into the centre. Very 'modern' room...perhaps too modern for friends sharing as the bath and sink are IN the room. The... More

On our way to Tuscany we thought it would be nice to hit the alps but beforehand stop off just outside for the night so we have the day to really see the mountains (especially the Grimselpass). Anyways, our main concern was first, parking, second, decent room. We'd heard Bern was pretty bad for that and when we saw this... More

The room was ok, not very big but good although considering it's a 4 star hotel I would have expected it to be better, as it was not very handy the toilette. My biggest complain was the gym, considering it was july it was terribly hot. The gym facilities (very small) were in the middle way from spa to gym,... More

Ambassador is not a bad hotel. But it is not something special. It is in a beautiful location, away from the city center, but the public transport (tram) is very good and the stop is just outside. Rooms are small. They have very large windows and you must be very carefull when you get your clothes off, because anyone outside... More

the hotel is a bit outside of the city center but you can reach it verx fast by public transport (the tram 9 stops just in front and it takes only 10 minutes). The hotel has a very nice view on the city and two restaurants. It provides a parking place for free. this is very important because in bern... More

Although the hotel's promotional photos try to make it look like a hotel W from Starwood, it is decidedly not. A colleague described the rooms as being similar to an American college dorm room, and I think that's a great assessment. This is not the place if you're looking for romance, style, luxury, nice towels or proximity to downtown. The... More
