Review

Jamie Dunford Wood:
This century-old hotel is on the Karntnerstrasse, where it backs onto the Habsburg crypt. The Ambassador is of medium size (86 rooms) and well run with no pretensions. The recently renovated guest rooms are large with stuccoed ceilings, parquet floors, swagged curtains and dark wood furnishings, with double doors in the Austrian fashion, while the restaurant is one of the finest in Vienna, the signature flagship of Austrian chef Toni Morwald.

The hall is grand, full of marble, porphery and chandeliers. There is no spa or many other amenities, and the bathrooms are small, but for a well run and luxurious hotel of pedigree in a perfect position (ask for the quieter rooms overlooking the crypt), it should be considered.
