I have to admit I was very hesitant to stay at this hotel after having read the bad reviews but I'm happy to say I had a wonderful stay at The Ambassador City.

I enjoyed a hearty and tasty breakfast every morning, everything was clean around the breakfast room (=no flies flying around etc) and there were different options available. My room was on the 4th floor, the view could have been better but it was a quiet, clean room with light-blocking heavy curtains. There was the occasional loud music (not all night) but hey - the hotel is in the centre. The room was kept clean. 

The air-conditioning worked perfectly and the machine wasn't too noisy. I paid extra for it but that is a very common way in Greece. The ac is rarely included in the price of the room in these lower rate hotels. 

Mr Stelios was accommodating and joked around with me - assuming it was Mr Stelios at the reception and bar? It had to be since I was told there is no other man working at the hotel. He didn't try to get me to eat at the hotel restaurant and never once acted in a passive-aggressive way (as has been described by many other visitors). I turned down his offer to keep the room until the evening of my bus pick up and he didn't get angry but instead showed me the baggage storage system, 2 euros!

I truly recommend this hotel to anyone wanting the best of all that Rhodos Town has to offer - perfect location, shops within walking distance, atm's, The Old Town 500 metres away (Amboise Gate), bus station about 15 minutes' walk away, beach very near by. 

If you want luxury, book somewhere else. But this hotel worked perfectly for me for my one week holiday, first time Rhodos visit.

Great, low-rate hotel downtown

This was a very good hotel. The service and the cleaning was excellent. The food in the restaurant tasted very good. All the people working there wanted the best for their guests. My next time in Rhodes, will definitely be here. 

A very good hotel. 

We were a bit hesitant about this hotel after reading all of the negative reviews, but Ambassador Hotel turned out to be a great stay! The location was excellent, our room was cleaned every day , the staff was friendly, and the included breakfast was OK. The size of our room and the view from the balcony were nothing to right home about, but you get what you pay for. We visited in August, so the air-con was a must, you did have to pay extra for it, but we didn’t mind. Another slight issue was that the door let all the noise from the bar below into our room. Other than that, our stay was totally fine!

Good value, exceeded expectations

It was a wonderful visit in Rhodes, and this place was good to stay at :)) we was there in 1 week and people that work there was very kind and gently:) I can absolutely recommend this place. But sometimes it was an "extra to pay " function for AC or other stuff, but this kind of things is everywhere 

Very nice place

As I have read the previous reviews I was a bit worried. But as a two star hotel this was very good. Hotel is renovated and clean. Breakfast was fine and the restaurant food good. Staff was always in a good mood and friendly, lovely young women. We didn’t pay for the ac as we didn’t think we need it. Excellent was that we were able to keep the room until 8 pm (for 50€), since we had a night flight back home. Location is good but a bit noisy area. Beach is very near. I would highly recommend if you are on a “budget” trip and don’t need anything fancy.

Nice hotel

The main reason I booked this hotel, was the location, near everything. I didn't have high expectations, but I was still disappointed. 
I didn't want the expensive air conditioning, but the manager sold it to me by half-force. And in the end it didn't even work. I would have been happy just keeping the balcony door open. But across from it was the balcony of the next hotel (like 3 meters distance). That is to say, the view from the balcony was half-naked people on other balconies. Also, all the noises from the hallway came through my room and disturbed e.g. my sleep. Otherwise the room was really small (as expected), but very clean and in good condition.
The food in the hotel restaurant was OK, but really expensive compared to other restaurants in the area. Breakfast was included and it was OK, though not anything special. The staff was really nice (expect the assumed manager).
To sum up, great location, but there is many hotels in the area, so maybe choose some other hotel.

Good location, otherwise poor

Me and my friends booked this hotel thinking that it wouldnt be the best hotel we would experience in our lives, but it would be livable. 
We were wrong. 

First, the positives. The hotel staff (excluding the manager) are very nice and welcoming, they were the one thing that stopped us from changing to a new hotel after the first day. 

The rooms weren't anything special but it had the essentials. However, we had a gigantic pillar in the middle of our room, which made it impossible to open our luggage on the floor, or store anything for that matter. 

But the one thing that made the entire experience terrible was the hotel manager/owner. To start with, he made us pay €50 per person for air-condition. We didn't think much of it, but we expected that we would get to use it as we'd like because of the extra charge. This wasn't the case. He would often threaten me and my friends about calling the police and throwing us out for leaving the air-condition on. Keep in mind, this started the first day, and he didn't tell us once that we couldn't leave it on. He would scream and threaten us for disagreeing with him, and he made up excuses for turning the air-condition off. He told us that we had broken the air-condition for leaving it on??? And when we called our booking company, he was enraged and insulted that we went directly to them. The booking company also told us that his behavior was a recurring problem for them. We lived in constant fear of being thrown out, or that the manager would call the police on us for nothing. 

The next day he had called a "repair-man" to fix the "broken" air-condition. The repair man never came, and he gave us a bill for €15 per person for the broken air-condition. When we subsequently asked for a receipt he started screaming and threatening to call the police. The rest of the stay we tried our best to avoid the manager and stay out of the hotel for most of the days. 

In addition, we were constantly asked to show our room keys and tell him our names when we entered the hotel. If you want a nice stay in Rhodes, do not book this hotel.

I really hope no-one books this hotel, this post is meant as a warning. Even though the price is low, it doesn't justify the terrible treatment and the joke of a breakfast. 

Everything other than the manager is a 2 or 3 out of 5. But the manager would get a -10 if it was possible.

WARNING: DO NOT BOOK

I booked this hotel in a hurry and I did not see google and tripadvisor reviews. I travelled all over the world and this is the worst hotel I have ever been. Rodos is beautiful island, Greece is beautiful country, Greek people are very kind, but not owner of this hotel. Come to this hotel only if you want to ruin your holiday. Doesnt worth any money! Dont book this! If you book this hotel you support mobbing of employees because owner humiliate working stuff. He is very agressive so we were worried about our safety. If you want to leave luggage in the hotel after check in you have to pay. Rooms are extremely small, bathroom as well and it is very hard to use toilet seat. View is on another building. Terrace is very small and you can not sit there. Location is in the dirties street in Rodos town, near Bar street. The bigest problem is behavior of the owner who likes to argue with guests and employees.

Do not book!

We are a couple in our mid-50s, going to Rhodes for sun, beach and quiet days. 

The hotel's location is good, a short distance to everything. But 24-hour bars in the street mean that there is noise throughout the night, and a waste disposal company collects rubbish with a lorry at 05 in the morning. 

The rooms are not old, but very small. Small bathrooms where it is almost impossible to turn around in the shower. 

We had breakfast one morning, but it is poor with little choice, and dishes are refilled late. The manager Mr Stelios gave us a reprimand when he realized we didn't want breakfast for several days. When he saw us having dinner at the restaurant next door, he became annoyed and encouraged us to eat in his restaurant. When we met friends the following evening at the restaurant across the street, he became angry, and both he and his wife turned their backs on us for the rest of our stay. Room cleaning was also finished after this incident, 5 days before our stay ended. Restaurants in the street are well visited, but there are rarely guests at Hotel ambassadør's restaurant. It is usually empty in the evening. 

Employees in cleaning and in the kitchen are guest workers from Albania. Mr Stelios often loudly yells at them, calling them gypsies. Also heard on a few occasions Mr Stelios shouting at other guests. 

For us this was the worst Hotel experience ever.

Worst ever hotel

My boyfriend and I didn’t stay at this hotel (thank god), but we did however get lunch in the restaurant one of the days. The food was the absolute worst in Rhodes. We asked for a serving of chips and received a saucer with a small handful of undercooked chips. I had a baked potato which was also very undercooked and didn’t come with any fillings, not even butter! My boyfriend asked for a plain gyros and received one with all dressing and salad on it. The drinks where also watered down and put into skinny glasses with a lot of ice in order to make them appear large. 
The waitress was very nice but definitely would not return under any circumstances.
