The hotel is centrally located. The room was nice. Housekeeping was lacking. One night a female front desk staff member was very curt, but overall the staff was nice. There have two elevator, but only one was working. One night the one elevator stopped working. Most of the time I took the stairs.

We arrived at the Ambassador Hotel in New Orleans on Memorial day, which was our first year anniversary. I was very skeptical about the hotel because it wasn't exactly in the French Quarter, but the price was really a steal. Which also concerned me, I thought why is it so cheap? We certainly were trying to get more for our... More

I called the hotel the day before we were supposed to arrive in town and asked to cancel the room due to recent and several shootings in the NOLA area. After being told that I "didn't know what I was talking about," the man on the other end of the phone proceeds to lie to me telling me he was... More

We enjoyed our stay at the Ambassador Hotel. Our room was very spacious with high ceiling, a desk, chairs, comfortable bed. It is probably one of the nicest rooms I have had. They served breakfast with the room at $63.00 a night plus $20.00 tax. The hotel is about a 5 block walk to the French Quarter and about 4... More

Horrible experience. When you call months in advance and book a room, recieve e-mail confirmation with a number days before, drive 1,800 miles and the "Manager" tells you she cancelled your room....not cool. When we said, "why didn't you call us and let us know?" Her response: "It says in the notes, we called and left a message"....NO message. My... More

I had no problem with the staff as they were all pretty friendly. The place is nice enough in the lobby and the room I had was ok (clean, decent size, a/c was fine), but the walls were too thin and the floors creaked whenever anyone walked by or in the next room. Bottom line is that I never felt... More

The other couple staying in #256 arrived a day earlier and used the valet parking. they said they had no problems getting valet to bring their car around throughout the weekend. We arrived at 3pm on Saturday and were told like many... More

room leaves a lot to desire. I pricelined this hotel and paid the price... it was suppose to be at least a 2.5 star hotel. Instead, it was at best a 1.5 star hotel. The room had no windows and was damp and moldy. The door between the hallway and the room was a glass door covered by really old... More

The hotel staff initially gave me a key to someone else's room upon check-in, in which I entered to find a young lady in her underwear. A few days later a hotel staff person pounded on my room's door at 10:30pm to see if "someone was in there". After calling the front desk they were rude and unapologetic. They also... More
