  • Close to interstate, clean, attractive, amenities.
  • Needs some updating.

“I was pleased with this hotel. The staff was very helpful and knowledgeable. There was a restaurant which appeared to be above average. The room was clean and attractive. It was very accessible to the interstate.”

  • It was in a great spot.
  • For a 4 star hotel it only should have been a 2.

“It was nice and clean, however, it was not a 4 start hotel and the towels smelled bad.”

  • Centralized location. Close to amenities and dining.
  • TGI Friday's.

“The location is great. Central to shopping, dining and entertainment. However, if you opt for a night in hope for two things: No children running up and down the halls or a neighbor watching TV or speaking in the adjoining room. Either of those two will for sure ruin your night in. This hotel still has the double door adjoining adjacent rooms; so anything your neighbor does you hear crystal and vice versa. And parents here seem to think they can let their children run rampant as field mice! Some people enjoy the scamper of little feet. I myself prefer it when I'm not trying to sleep or get work done. This is a nice hotel and the staff is WONDERFUL! Although I'm still unsure as to what the concierge staff downstairs does as both times I've stayed here, they haven't helped with my bags or even offered to do so.”

  • Spacious rooms.
  • Bathrooms could be a bit larger.

“We stayed at the Ambassador Hotel - Amarillo for one night on our way to Lubbock. In researching our options, we came across the Ambassador Hotel and decided to investigate further. The hotel was offering a great package that included breakfast for two in their restaurant. We were able to get a cheap rate, and felt this was a steal for such an outstanding hotel. The hotel was completely remodeled recently, and our room was very spacious, clean and comfortable. Service was excellent from check-in to check-out. It was so nice not having to leave property for dinner and drinks. There is a TGI Friday's at the hotel. We could not believe that the breakfast included in our package was this incredible buffet with so many items to choose from. The Ambassador's breakfast buffet is sure to start off anybody's day on the right foot. When traveling through Amarillo, we would recommend the Ambassador Hotel.”

  • I enjoyed the pool and the exercise facilities.
  • The floors were not completely clean in the room.

“I enjoyed the hotel overall. The floors in the room were not as clean as I would have thought a hotel's should be, but everything else was great. They had a good breakfast, a little expensive, but not atypical for a hotel. I really enjoyed the king size bed. It was very comfortable.”

“A nice place for a break. Easy to find with large clean rooms. Air conditioning worked very well during my stay when outside temp hit 106. Towels were very old and dingy grey in color.”

  • The beds were ok.
  • It is not a 4 star hotel. The sheets were gray not white. The towels were gray not white. There was no shower floor mat. I had to call for clean.

“I have never stayed in hotel this bad. They do not wash their towels or sheets with the right kind of detergent and no bleach. The housekeeper told me they have constant problems with this. It was a horrible experience. We were tired after driving all day and to get to this hotel and try to sleep was horrific. Also we all got bitten by some kind of bugs in the rooms. I believe they have bed bugs. Our housekeeper told us the next morning that they have had problems in the past with this.”

“I came to Amarillo to a family wedding and thought I was getting a nice hotel. It looks nice, but the room was so dirty. So I talk the manager and she made me feel like I was not important.”

  • Indoor swimming pool was great. TGI Fridays is attached to this hotel which is convenient.
  • No candy bars on our floors vending machine.

“It's hard to find a good deal on a nice hotel in Amarillo because there is so much traffic along the interstate. The Ambassador was convenient to the highway, big, nice rooms, nice pool and work-out facilities and good restaurant adjoining hotel. Will stay there again!”

  • Friendly Staff. Very inviting atrium and indoor pool area.
  • Bathroom very small. Room musty and much worn. Therefore, difficult to be comfortable in the room.

“Quick check-in. Very friendly staff. Lobby and atrium very nice and well maintained. Indoor pool area was great. Open the door to your room and you're suddenly in a different hotel. The bathroom was incredibly small. There was a musty odor that we could not get to go away. Even went to Wal-Mart and bought a can of Lysol. It helped some. We had the window opened most of our stay. Ceiling tiles very stained.”

  • Complimentary upgrade to concierge.
  • Desk clerk at check-in cold, impersonal. Wrote down wrong room number on folder. Then defensive about it.

“It's a small "oasis in the desert" in w. Texas, but getting old and needs updating. In several stays, we've consistently thought front desk staff was impersonal and inefficient. Rooms are above average and reasonably comfortable. Hotel-style (not window unit) a/c blower has one speed: loud. No way to put it on "continuous."”
