Guest reviews for The Ambassador
"I liked everything. The bonus was that there was a full kitchen available for the guests use. The area was great, pretty, a walking distance from everywhere I need to be."
"N/A"

"Building is beautiful, historic, comfortable, well-maintained, in a great location. Check in process is super easy and convenient. Great value for price."
"Part of the reason I booked it was because it was advertised as having a free hot breakfast from 7-9am (ie. being a true "B&B"). However, after I completed the booking I received a notice that they no longer do breakfast, which was disappointing. I had to leave at 8am for work, however I believe there was a sign saying they would be serving coffee and tea at 9am, so at least that's something"
"Room #5 was small, but quiet, clean, and comfortable. Easy check in. Shared bathroom facilities were clean. Arrived late evening and left early morning to catch an out-of-town bus, so it worked well for an overnight stay at a good price. Note: two flights of stairs to get to this room (it was ok for me but might be an issue for some)."
"Aucun."
"Great location, stylish building, very comfortable beds, very quiet, very helpful and attentive host staff"
"Aucun."
"The room was very spacious. The cleanliness was commendable. The bed was very comfortable. The house is inviting. It is but a little walk from all the necessities."
"I can't think of anything major. I might be good to think of ways to prevent the doors from individual rooms from closing loudly. Hardwood floors make the house noisier, but it also is one of the house best features. That's the only thing I can think of. Not a deal breaker at all ;-)"
"The breakfast was very good and plentiful. It was within walking distance to Parliament Hill."
"Although I didn’t have any problems with the parking I was nervous because someone was parked behind me and I didn’t know who to approach if I wanted to use my car."
"Easy entry with passcode to building and private room"
"Aucun."
"It’s in the heart of Sandy Hill, a lovely neighborhood that is safe and quiet."
"Aucun."

Guest reviews
"The location of the property is excellent for viewing the Aurora Borealis as it is located on the shore of Great Slave Lake which provides ample open space when the lake is frozen in the winter for a great viewing experience. The accommodations were comfortable and clean and well heated, a plus for a winter visit like ours.. Ben, the substitute on-site manager was extremely helpful during our stay. Yellowknife is a wonderful small town to visit and enjoy during the winter"
