Michelin Guide "The Ambassador is one of the city's most venerable institutions. The style is resolutely traditional, although never at the expense of modern comfort."
Frommer's "It's no Bristol or Imperial, but it's quite posh nonetheless. The Ambassador couldn't be better located." Full review
Lonely Planet "Prices vary by season and demand, but even in May and September you can find well-priced rooms in the historic Ambassador." Full review

Some of the older units are downright drab so be sure to book a renovated room.
