We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the ambassador hotel, as did we last time we visited. The staff were super friendly and helpful. Rooms were immaculate, equipped with everything you might need while staying away from home. We thank you for looking after us over the long weekend! We’ll definitely be back again :)

The hotel was very cosy and fit 4 of us on 2 large beds. We were going to some clubs in the city centre which was about 10 minutes from the hotel. You could either Uber or grab a nearby Lime scooter to get there. Late checkin at 10pm available which was very handy and everything was very easy! Only down is the bathroom is very small with little ventilation, so if doing makeup you’ll need to go to the mirror door in the room as the steam takes ages to ventilate after a shower.

Clean, functional, well-located, friendly staff. Good place for a night or two. Bonus points for going the extra mile to reduce the use of plastic at the breakfast buffet - haven't seen any other hotels doing that yet, so great to see.

We were enroute up the North Isaland and stopped here for 1 night with 2 adults & 2 kids. The price and location were absolutely perfect. Pool area & hot tub good. Reception staff friendly. Whilst cloe to a busy road, didnt find noise too intrusive, there are other rooms that are well set back from road.

Stayed two nights over a busy weekend. Units were light and airy Very clean and well presented like a 5 star hotel. 50 unit complex with a one unit feeling. Excellent breakfast menu BUT best of all was the Motels room rates and such accommodating and friendly staff from front desk to unit cleaners. 5 star rating and highly recommend if looking for accommodation in HAMILTON.

Originally booked for 1 night but kids wanted to stay an extra night. Bed was amazing, TV selection was great (plenty of sports and kids channels), breakfast buffet was yummy, location was on point and the kids loved the pool. Staff were also fantastic which is what you want at a Hotel.

Room size fine. Mine was end of corridor so pretty quiet in terms of people walking past etc. "Balcony view" was over car park and supermarket across busy road which got quite noisy in evenings. Bed comfy though - slept well. Bathroom in need of refurb - bit grotty round edges of bath and floor tiles, damp shower curtain smell, paint peeling. Loo and sink were cleaned well, however, as was rest of the room.

Fantastic service, great breakfast, great pool, comfortable bed. Dated bathroom: chipped bath and sink, peeling paint, stained shower curtain. Could do with upgrading or at least a fresh coat of paint and new shower curtain! Overall I won't return.
