Wonderful holiday at Ambre
I had read many reports on the Ambre and some were fair, many ridiculous. We are well travelled lived in the USA, been to various Caribbean islands, New Zealand, Kauai, etc. It’s true the Ambre is not perfect, but it’s still very good. We were extremely well looked after by host of wonderful people and everyone is helpful, happy and polite. We The Italian Dolce Vita restaurant as we felt it was too hot and service not great, that was however made up for by the buffet at Indigo which had a different theme every night with fantastic food esp the fish and many different curries. We had Marlin cooked in front of us with steaks from a huge whole fish caught locally. Plentiful wine is served at the table. Special thanks to Kerslie,, Kamlish, Rati and Gerrish. Our room was excellent and thank you to Ram for cleaning and adding beautiful flowered every day. The beach is one of the best in Mauritius. The pool is also lovely with a nice big bar area in the corner overlooking the turquoise sea. The hotel has a very wide range of nationalities staying, not dominated by any which is lovely. The highlight of our 2 week stay was the 5 island boat trip which Chris will sell you on the beach. We went private for my wife’s birthday and it was worth every penny. Many thanks to Kenny who drove the speedboat, gave us the tour, supplied us with rum and the guys who did a wonderful lunch of lobster etc on the beach of course. They pack a huge amount in and it’s truly a brilliant day.
Positive - Location, Kitchen Negative - Terrible Service and Hospitality
Spent 3 nights in May with Family. Location and Kitchen was as expected. But never expected the rudeness and service in the hospital. There are only 3 guys managing the hotel in shifts. No other service. So, if you have any issues, it takes time to solve. Broken devices at the room which will not be fixed till you are there. This would have still be okay but the third guy who comes at night shift (oh man!). I have NEVER EVER seen a rude guy in hotel business as that guy. No understanding on how to talk to treat the customer. Probably pissed off his job. Because of him, our stay there was ruined. No food order facility as no kitchen (only 3 people remember). Positive: The girl in the morning was nice. In case you are shortlisting this hotel because of location (which is good), choose the Ibis hotel in front. At least you can expect the standard Ibis service there and dont feel cheated. Don't ruin your holidays.
Nice but basic hotel close to metro etc
I stayed one night in the hotel and the room was comfortable with a functional bathroom. The staff were friendly and everything was very clean. This hotel is perfectly adequate but the room was very small and there was nowhere to put anything or store my suitcase. If you need a bed for the night, this hotel will absolutely serve its purpose. There were nice restaurants nearby and the metro is quite close too.
Good location in Paris
Hotel Ambre has a very good location and it is very close to metro. We chose this hotel because of possibility of free parking which we did not get for the first night, despite my husband sent an email where he specifically asked and did not receive a clear answer if we get it or not. Luckily, we arrived in later hours and caught a public parking spot in front of the gate, which is from 8pm-9am for free and the other day the receptionist solved our problem right in the morning and we got a spot to park in the garage nearby (the garages are few meters out from the hotel). The room was small, with older equipment and very small bed for two (taller people might have problems). It had a small kitchenette with microwave, small stove, cutlery (which was quite dirty, so we did not use it). The safe-box and socket on my side of the bed didn’t work (as I have read already similar problem in one of the older reviews, they do not quite maintain room facilities). However, the room itself was clean and enough to host us during our stay.
Tiny bed, barely slept due to lights.
We arrived a bit before check-in time, yet the front door didn’t open by itself and you had to wait for an employee. I wouldn’t say that that is very friendly for your guests. The parking worked fine and the guy sitting behind the front office was very kind. While waiting for check-in one of the personnel was fighting with a guest which left is rather uncomfortable. When walking into our room it was alright, yet the bed was super tiny, the bathroom was damaged and not the cleanest, and one of the lamps was unable to be turned off, so had to sleep with the light on all night. The man at check-out was also not very kind either. It did not ruin our time in Paris, but it was not the most comfortable sleep. Would not consider going back here soon.
