This is not my first stay at Ambassade but it had been pre-Covid since my last visit. The place did not disappoint. The staff (Will and Sebastian, thank you) were wonderfully accommodating. My room, which did not face the canal, was huge and had a bank of windows that let in loads of light. Bedding and pillows made sleeping quite comfortable. Closeting and drawers galore. The bathroom was spacious, as well, with heated floors. Library bar is especially inviting and a must, even if it’s to simply sit with a cuppa or a cocktail.

I would rate this a 3 star hotel. There is certainly room for improvement. Noise transmission is a problem as the rooms do not seem to be acoustically isolated. We heard and felt very step of the person above us. Staff is friendly and courteous but lacking in experience. House staff was a little stingy relative to soap, shampoo, and water. Finally, don't think that you can check-in any earlier than the indicated check-in time (which for this hotel is 3:00 pm) - it ain't going to happen. We we're up for 24 hours with an international flight and arrived in the morning, looking to take a short nap. The staff indicated the room wasn't ready. We came back at 2:30 pm and room still wasn't ready. That said, Hotel is conveniently located within reasonable walking distance of Dam Square, Anne Frank House, and a metro stop. However for the $600 we paid for the room I don't think we would return again to this hotel.
