I was actually there the same time the original poster was there, May 23rd - June 3rd. This was my 2nd time staying at this hotel, I booked a Jr. Suite (Tower 2) as I did the 1st time. The Jr. Suite was nice and spacious with a King size bed. What I learned from my 1st stay here is, if you're in Tower 2 do not stay on the side of the Tower that is facing the Ambassador Hotel. They have this bird exhibit/zoo of some sort, the birds can be really noisy during the day (more so in the morning). This recent trip I asked for a room facing the BKK skyline (Facing Soi 11). Great view (14th Floor) when you're with your special someone doing the deed (if you know what i mean). The breakfast was decent, the gym is not bad as well and I had no Issue with Wifi. Also, forgot to mention...they are doing some sort of renovation at the entrance of Tower 2. So there are some construction workers going in and out, just an fyi. In conclusion, I'd stay at this hotel again in a heartbeat... It's in the middle of all the main mongering attractions (Nana/Cowboy) and Clubs (Climax/Levels).

I also stayed at Grand President (Jr. Suite - 19th Floor / Tower 2) last month. I happened to be facing the Ambassador Hotel which has exotic birds that are loud and annoying (Usually in the mornings).

I did the same, Ambassador Hotel isn't a bad hotel (As long as you stay in the Tower). And I'm assuming when you say "internal access" you're talking about that spiral stair case from the lobby to the entrance of climax?

When did Angel City Diner on Soi11 close down?

Stayed there in April of this year, Check out my thread I started asking the same question... http://www.bangkok-addicts.com/forum/topic/4061-ambassador-hotel/

I agree with you, I was probably there the same time you were (April 2nd - 11th) but I stayed in the tower instead of the Main Wing. I don't see myself staying there for my next holiday but like you, I will be staying in a hotel on Soi 11 for sure.

To tell you the truth, my stay at the ambassador was not bad at all. If you stay in the Tower you get free WiFi and the maids do a pretty good job, I think the horror stories are from the people who stayed in the old standard main wing. As for the guest friendly question, from my experience it is a guest friendly hotel, just make sure when you book your room it's for 2 max adults. Also, just an FYI the guard or man that collects ID's/Passports of your guest will ask for a tip. So I told him to never eat yellow snow, jk... I tipped him 100bhat and he was happy with that.

A lot of good information here, Thanks guys for the help. I sent the hotel an email, just waiting for their reply back. I'm assuming you stayed in the standard main wing? Read a lot of horror stories about that part of the hotel. I'm staying in the new superior tower wing, they say it's a hell of a lot better than the standard main wing and free WI Fi is provided in the superior tower wing. I chose this hotel because of it's location, they have a pretty decent gym and all the night clubs are on Soi 11 (also helps that climax is here as well).

I'll be staying at the Ambassador for my holiday next month, I did some research on this forum and other sites and found that it was guess friendly. When I made my reservation I made it for two max guess per room. I posted on a thread on this forum in regards to Soi 11 mentioning that I will be staying at the Ambassador and one of the BM's told me that Ambassador is charging a joiner fee? Anyone stay at that hotel lately? Thought I would ask you guys here first before I call the actual hotel, thanks for your help.

Thanks for the heads up, I hope not. I will report on this when I get back.

Great pics, I will be staying at the Ambassador during my stay next month. I will be getting to know Soi 11 well...

Cool, thanks for the info guys...

Will be going to BKK for the first time in April, did a search and did not get any hits. I did some google and youtube searches and it seemed like this place is pretty live. I enjoy Hip Hop, R&B with some electro (house/dub-step) which they spin at this club. For the BM's on this board that have been there, is there a lot of FL's that go there or just the usual local TG's? Also, since I really don't know the area, how far is it from Nana Plaza/Soi Cowboy? I'm in the process of booking my hotel and will probably get one in between Nana Plaza and Soi Cowboy.
