Ambassador Hotel Review

The 10-story Ambassador is Amarillo's tallest hotel. It's also the city's best, a pleasant touch of class in cowboy country, featuring stately European interiors accented by Texan style, with plenty of basket-weave wood, granite, and tooled leather. The 9th and 10th floors make up the concierge level, with brass fixtures, minibars, and complimentary breakfast and cocktails. Many of the upper rooms have great views of the pleasantly treed cityscape below -- those facing east are the best in this regard. Decorated with gallery-caliber art and maps, the lobby is striking -- a five-story atrium with a sloping glass enclosure over an excellent cafe and a small pool -- and the service and amenities are the best in town.

Facilities:
2 restaurants; bar; indoor heated pool; privileges at a nearby health club; exercise room; indoor Jacuzzi; concierge; courtesy car; business center; limited room service; laundry service/dry cleaning; executive level

About Our System

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.

Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.

The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
