Very Dated and needs a full on renovation. Not the cleanest of rooms. Bathroom suits are from 1990’s with cream plastic shower and taps. Water pressure is good. My shower head was blocked by dirt so someone had to come and open the shower head with screwdriver and clean the dirt out of it to unblock.
Rooms also smell a little of Damp as Bathroom was not the most ventilated of places.
The best thing was their food, very good chef and staff is nice too. I would not Stay here again, specially for the price which was about £140/night, definitely not worth that sort of price range.

Very fancy and luxurious hotel
The Ambassador is a very nice hotel and we had a great stay. Their lobby is very fancy and our room had a lovely seating area as well as a marble bathroom! Bed was very comfortable. It's a little bit far from the area that we wanted to visit like Fort and gateway to India but otherwise it is a perfect hotel.

Good location
A good hotel in good area close to Marine Drive. Rooms we clean and comfortable and a good size. It is an older hotel with a bit of charm. Just near Churchgate railway station where some tours start or end. Plenty of restaurants or cafes close by.
Only complaint was some rooms a bit musty, but they were happy to move us and shower in morning time sometimes was cold

After two nights of leaky, moist and humid stay we were moved to a dry room (thanks to Ayesha) but it should have been done in day one itself.
Two onsite restaurants were pretty good, had aging but clean interior, good food and great staff.

Great location, but the glory days have passed
One of Mumbai's longest serving hotel and it feels a little past its best. The location, for me is just about the best in the city, but the well worn feel and less than cheery staff gave it a very 3 star feel, which for the price they charge is a little disappointing.

Very recommended!
My experience was really great. The hotel is near to Marine Bay and some really cool restaurants that mixes the traditional indian food with foreign spices.
Museum and Flora Fountain are not so far away.
I arrived late and the personal were kind enough to authorize me a late check-out.

In need for some serious maintenance + upgrade
Pros:
- Very courteous and friendly staff
- Decent breakfast spread / food
- Comfortable and clean beds. Decently sized rooms
- Superb location for access to all of Mumbai by train, metro, cab & bus. Walkable to major attractions.
Cons:
- Terrible state of bathrooms. No ventilation fans. BLACK MOLD in the shower. Woke up with headaches & insisted on changing rooms asap
- Bathrooms are 2 levels higher than the floor in the room! Needed an additional stool to get in. Very Strange.
- Room Tariff does not justify the dated rooms. I guess they charge for the location.
Special mention to Mr.Naren for helping me out with change of rooms. Very kind and accommodating gentleman. Thank you sir.

Best Hotel
We stayed for 6 days , had excellent experience. Rooms are very clean , Comfortable. Front desk , lobby staff, everyone one was super nice and helpful . Room service was excellent. Very fast . You get the 5 star service. Restaurant food was tasty . I want to thank every one special Sunjay Tiwali the food and beverage manager who went back and forth to make sure we are comfortable and receive the best service . Hotel is located in the best area , 50 feet from Marine . Walking distance to many bars, coffee and restaurants.

I usually stay at five-stars when I’m in Mumbai, splurging a little bit while still finding a good deal online that fits within my budget. But Mumbai hotel prices have gotten out of control and this time they were unusually high at my usual spots, so I booked The Ambassador (a slightly dated 4 Star) instead — and I’m genuinely glad I did.
The location, right off Marine Drive, was perfect for me.
The room/suite was spacious, clean, and tastefully done, with a sense of quiet elegance rather than flash. The bathroom was excellent, and the shower had fantastic water pressure, which honestly makes or breaks a stay for me.
What really stood out was the classic Indian hotel vibe. The Ambassador may seem a bit dated in terms of design, but I actually like that they don’t seem to be trying to imitate a modern Western luxury brand — to me, that’s exactly its strength. Think dark wood, traditional artwork, bas-relief details, and general old-world charm. It felt nostalgic in the best way, reminding me of the heyday of 1980s and 1990s Bombay — refined, confident, and unpretentious.
Breakfast was good and satisfying — fresh, tasty, and well prepared, though the variety was a bit limited. Service throughout the hotel was warm and attentive.
Overall, for the price point, this was excellent value. A comfortable, classy stay with character and history. I would happily stay again and recommend it to friends looking for something authentic and well run rather than cookie-cutter luxury.
