The first of three hotels on my vacation - and absolutely fine. The hotel was minutes away from the bus stop from the ferry - but just outside the door for everywhere else. Overlooking the harbour, it was surrounded by restaurants, A good breakfast and but a short walk to the train station.

Bit of hike off the ferry as a foot passenger but perfect spot in surprisingly nice little town. Staff super helpful sorting out some travel plans, single room was smallish but very nice design and spotless. All the bars and cafes on doorstep its an absolute bargain.

The Ambassadeur hotel is an excellent hotel in all aspects. It is very reasonably priced, it has great amenities for a city centre hotel such as a gym with real quality equipment, nice comfortable and clean rooms. The location is next to the restaurants. I ’ve been staying there a few times and I will again.
