Old glory
Travelled on 12/2025
Vienna is an expensive city and Ambassador is no exception. At 300 per night, excluding breakfast, expectations are high, especially when it sells itself as a six-star Grand Old Lady.
It delivers to a large degree : its location could not be better between shopping street Kärntner Straße and Neuer Markt with its historic characteristics. Most tourist destinations are within walking distance (The State Opera, St. Ste...

Anniversary visit
Travelled on 12/2025
We loved this hotel the spacious rooms, right in the heart of the city. Yet it was quiet and peaceful. The staff were all helpful couldn't do enough. We bought the tickets for trams etc and they were great getting to and fro. Vienna, can't wait to return....

Scaffolding outside our window!
Travelled on 09/2025
We were really looking forward to staying in this hotel as it had been recommended by friends and it was a special birthday celebration for my wife's 60th birthday.
On being allocated our room on the fourth floor, we discovered that there was scaffolding erected across our windows and the 'city view' was completely obscured by an opaque film.
Imagine our dismay when we were awoken before 7 am by workmen on the planks...
