We have just returned from our 'Grand Tour of Europe' and our first stop was at the Ambasssador Hotel in Brig - we had two nights here and it was lovely. The Hotel was very cosy, the staff very friendly and helpful. Breakfast and dinner very enjoyable. We loved it and would not hesitate to recommend to anyone. Brig was... more

The hotel is situated within 5 mins walk from train station which is helpful as I had a big luggage to lug around. I stayed one night there, doing a day trip to Eggishorn. The room was small but cosy giving a partially blocked view of the mountain behind Brig. The food spread was adequate with sufficient choices but I... more

Hotel short distance from station and easy to find in a quiet street. Basic hotel but had everything you could need and very clean. Good breakfast for its grade, and friendly staff. Walking around Brig we thought the Ambassador is better than any other hotel. We had one of the cheapest rooms that had a very small shower room/wc but... more

The hotel was excellent, an ideal spot near both the station & village centre. Our room was large with a good view of the mountains and a balcony. We found everyone very helpful there. The breakfast & main meals very tastey with a good choice. We would definitely recommend it. Good value too. more

We recently stayed for 2 nights in Hotel Ambassador in Brig.It is in a very quiet street with off-street parking behind it. The location is excellent- 300 metres walk to the train station to catch trains to many parts of Switzerland and up to Zermatt. We did a day trip to Zermatt from here and had a wonderful experience. The... more

Yes, the rooms are small and services restricted (the Internet PC is in an old phone booth) - but this is extremely good value among overpriced Swiss hotels, and only a 5-min walk from gare. Very clean and good breakfast choices. more

We booked this hotel well in advance of our visit. However when we arrived, at 13:30, the manager boldly told us that he was overbooked and had no room for us. He had arranged an alternative room at a completely barren hotel elsewhere in the Town. His recompense for this: if we had a meal in his restaurant he would... more

The room was clean if a bit spartan and rather outdated in decor (blocks of green swirly wallpaper?). Breakfast was the standard buffet deal. The was a distinct smell of cigarettes in most of the hotel - this was something we encountered a lot in Switzerland where people still seem to take a drag on a cigarette for every bite... more

There are no hotels above three star in Brig to my knowledge and as such I was fearing a very poor experience. As it turned out the Ambassador was fine - all the staff were really helpful - particularly in the restaurant, which for some strange reason is hardly advertised at all in the hotel. We had to check it... more

Upon arriving by train after dark we had a little trouble figuring out which way to walk but then we saw a sign and were on our way. We were supposed to arrive after 10p and so I was worried that we would be locked out after reading the review that mentioned the doors being locked after 9p. I had... more
