Not quite understood why Surya is a better location at least in terms of seeing the city. It's in one end of South Delhi - Bahai temple is close by and you can move straight on to Agra but...Ambassador is more central being almost bang next door to CP (which you can say is the central point of Delhi). If it was a toss up between the two, I would go for Ambassador.

never stayed at surya, but have stayed at ambassador back when I was 10 years old, and back then it was really nice, and I would highly recommend it to anyone.

Taj!

Surya is a flea pit (at least for a five star ).

The Ambassador was touched up some years ago.

A few years ago, the Surya was run by the Hilton

Surya & Hilton ? Not to my mind...

Taj is good value. Rooms there start at Rs 6500 from what I remember.

Definitely Taj Ambassador. Surya hardly measures up to 5 star value. Ambassador is located in khan market so it's close to a lot of good restaurants and a great shopping area, proximity to CP, and the hotel has a decent restaurant and a nice bar. And it's got really big rooms..

The Taj Ambassador...
it is more central and right next door to Khan Market and Lodhi Gardens and a short drive from CP.
