I recently stayed at the Ambasse Hotel in Amsterdam and had a wonderful experience. This elegant and posh hotel stands out with its unique charm and character. The front desk staff were incredibly helpful and even escorted me to my room, bringing my bags and showing me around the property. They also provided excellent recommendations for late-night dining. The hotel's quirky, labyrinth-like halls add to its old-world charm, making it feel like a true escape. My room was exactly as depicted in the online photos, with no exaggeration. I highly recommend the Ambasse Hotel for anyone seeking a refined and memorable stay in Amsterdam.

The hotel was very nice and we enjoyed our stay overall. The area was very convenient to all the sites and many restaurants & the area was very quiet. Our room was nice and we slept well in the comfortable beds. Sadly the coffee was not great and we did not find the breakfast to be particularly good considering the price. Also, it is important to note that there are many stairs in unusual places. It is necessary to go down multiple steps to enter the hotel with suitcases. Also even when exiting the elevator you may need to navigate a step or two to get to your room. It was fine for us but I imagined it would be difficult for someone with physical challenges.

Fantastic stay at the Ambassade Hotel
Lovely hotel in fantastic location. All staff were very friendly and professional, nothing was too much trouble. Our canal view room was worth the extra expense and had everything needed for a comfortable stay. Bathroom was newly refurbished and very modern. Food was of good quality at breakfast and one dinner in the restaurant, if a little on the expensive side. Would definitely stay at the Ambassade Hotel again. Thank you for a very enjoyable and relaxing stay.

The staff was exceptionally friendly and helpful. The room was spacious with a large and comfortable bathroom. Their breakfast was excellent with hot and cold offerings that were unique.

Our flight was canceled so we booked a night here and absolutely loved it. The owner is a collector of COBRA art (COpenhagen, BRussels, Amsterdam postwar art) and he has filled the hotel walls with prints and paintings from his collection. I absolutely loved the art, so this was a real bonus. And the library and reading rooms were full of great books on different subjects. I had planned to go out on the town, but found myself reading some of the books in the cozy reading room instead, and I didn’t regret it at all. The room décor was not to my taste (kind of Hollywood glam), but it was extremely comfortable. The mattress and pillows were perfect, not too hard or soft, but just right. The floors had radiated heat which was lovely, especially in the bathroom which included a nice large tub! I can’t speak to the food in the hotel restaurant because we opted for a more casual dinner a few doors down. In retrospect I wish we had dined at the hotel because the food at the pub was underwhelming, especially if you like to eat healthily.

The rooms are both elegant and charming. The bathrooms are spectacular with the best tub/shower I have ever experienced. The staff was always courteous and helpful.
