Hotel Ambassador

Ahmedabad (Amdavad)


Bright white on the outside and frog-green on the inside, the Ambassador greets you with eye-catching colours, a chilled lobby, friendly desk staff and decent rooms. With discounts often available, it’s good value; ask to have breakfast included and it probably will be. It's just north of Nehru Bridge.
