Great value for a hotel room in Waikiki!! Great location, very clean, nice pool area, would recommend for those who want to save some money and don't require all the frills!! Only pet peeve is they charge extra for EVERYTHING!! $1.00 for local calls, $3.14 charge to use the in room safe daily, $4.95 an hour to use business centre... more

I booked this hotel against the advice of my travel agent, trying to save money for our honeymoon. What a mistake. Not sure where to start so I'll start at the beginning. After spending 20+ hours traveling to Hawaii we finally got to our hotel. We got to our room and even though I booked a king bed we were... more

The Ambassador Hotel is what it is, a reasonably priced hotel with reasonably good facilities. If you are after a 5 * accommodation then this is not the place for you, but if you are after a clean and well-located hotel with no frills then this is perfect. I will start with the very few minor defects that I experienced:... more

I had a chance to tack a few extra days onto a business trip in February but couldn't afford to do that at the Hilton that company put me up in. So, in preparation I hit the Internet to search for what I thought would be a near impossibility - a cheap hotel in Waikiki. Imagine my surprise then when... more

The Ambassador's location in Waikiki is great, just at the end (or beginning actually) of all the action. You're close to restaurants, shops, and the beach. It's not beach front, but if you don't mind walking, it's a nice walk (or jog) through some nice grounds just across the street, then just cut through the Hale Koa and viola, you're... more

This hotel was fine for the price. This is not a luxury hotel, but similar to a Motel 6. It was very clean and about 2 blocks from the beach. The staff was very friendly and helpful. We were hardly ever in our room, so it worked well for us. more

My wife and I booked a package through Pleasant Holidays and were given 4 nights at the Ambassador. We had stayed at the Ohana Maile Sky Court (across the street from Ambassador) on two previous trips, also booked through PH for about the same money. Our 2nd fl room at the Ambassador was a more spacious than Maile's room, and... more

AAA recommended this property so I researched it here and on Expedia. The price was extremely reasonable for a 1 br suite with a full kitchen. It is located on the outskirts but within walking distance of downtown Waikiki without being right in the middle of all the traffic and noise. The room had a musty smell which dissapated over... more

The Ambassador Hotel is located on the edge of Waikiki in Honolulu. It is a cinder-block structure with 18 floors and a penthouse floor. The Internet specials are reasonable for a spacious one bedroom apartment with 4 beds and kitchenette for $95/night. Most of the guests are Japanese tourists. One can walk to the beach and stroll along Kalakaua Avenue.... more
