The hotel has NO FREE PARKING. They have 5 parking spots total for 23 rooms. We were lucky to park twice in front of the hotel (there are 2 spots) and never at the back (3 spots), we had to pay for the parking all other time (we stayed 5 nights). The manager guy (I guess, the owner) was rude about the parking and the coffee machine in the lobby which was turned off on Sunday ?? Our room with 3 beds and a balcony was nice.

Well, we liked Walter, once we warmed to him. The rest of the staff very nice and helpful. The breakfast was best i have ever had except for a small hotel in Campa Nova Brazil. The recommendations from Walter fir dinning and sightseeing were excellent.

Hotel Ambassador in Solothurn has a small town charm and great location on a quiet street only 3 min. walking distance from the railway station. It is also conveniently near the river and bridges that lead you into the historic old town.

Great value
The hotel was very clean. The staff was extremely nice & welcoming. The check-in kiosk outside the entrance was hard to navigate, but luckily the employere was nice & opened the door for us. There is a separate key for the room & the hotel entrance. All keys are on display for all rooms & you have to insert one key to get the other (you only get 1 key at a time.. either room or hotel door). They should update to a card system like most other hotels. Other than that, I highly recommend this hotel & Solothurn has a lot to offer.

Very friendly but super noisy
I couldn't sleep well: 1) the curtains were not dark/thick enough, so at 5.50 the first sun light came into the room waking me up; 2) and to make it worse, every time someone used the bathroom or the shower or the sink (not sure which one it was) in another room you heard the water going down the pipelines quite loudly, so quite a bad night. The owner was super nice and friendly.

Nice niche hotel. No A/C. Did not care for the login machine on the outside to get your key; I would rather meet directly with the person at the front desk. For after hours help, this would be fine but not just to replace the person at the front desk.

Good, old style hotel
An old style and charming hotel with friendly staff. This may not be your cup of tea if you need all the modern conveniences but it served me well for my one night stay on a business trip.

Further from Bern than we thought but so pleased we found it, the staff were so helpful and friendly. The room looked newly decorated, bathroom satisfactory and beds really comfortable. Breakfast was the best continental we’d had, loads of cereal choice plus some homemade. Boiled eggs had been dyed bright colours, would stay again.Didnt see much of town had a struggle to get something to eat as it was Sunday

A great hotel!
The staff is lovely and very helpful while the hotel is very conveniently located to the main train station and the old town. It is near to the main roads but the noise is surprisingly low, especially later in the evening as the road noise drops considerably. the bed was not the most comfortable but not bad and most importantly it is clean with a great staff. I would certainly stay here again for business or pleasure.
