Lapis Inn Hotel & Spa ( Ex. Ambassador Hotel)

Sultan Ahmed Mosque Istanbul|0.14km from German Fountain
We booked the Deluxe Room for 3 nights. Upon arrival at 11am we were given the room straight away, thanks!! We had requested for a room on a high floor and allocated a room on their 5th floor, same floor as the breakfast terrace cafe. Our Deluxe room (501) didn’t look like the photos but perhaps those photos were of the old Ambassador Hotel. And it seems smaller as well. However, I’m not complaining since it is a corner room thus have loads of windows with decent views. Despite nothing exciting but good enough, especially since prior to arrival the hotel had communicated that the rooms have no view. Thus, it exceeded my expectations 😁. And it’s great that we were on the same floor as the terrace. Feels like our own home! Aircond was slightly an issue since it was blowing warm air. Reception informed April is still winter mode so no cold aircond. We solved the issue by turning it off and opening the windows wide. No noise whatsoever. Bathroom not my favourite since the shower had just a partial barrier so the floor right by the shower entrance did get wet. Breakfast - Pretty basic but they did offer freshly fried egg/omelet. The view was AMAZING though! Location - Excellent, so many eateries in the surroundings. And just a minute walk to the Sultanahmet Tram Stop. Very easy to find, just in a walkway next to Adonin Cafe & Restaurant. I would definitely stay here again the next time I’m in Istanbul. The most convenient place and the best value amongst the 3 hotels I shortlisted.
