Loved it and will stay again!

Stayed at the Big Texan with my kids and wife and we loved it! Loved the themed room, the pool shaped like Texas and the closeness to the restaurant. Very satisfied with our stay. Will definitely stay again!
-
Thoroughly enjoyed our stay here. We also enjoyed the bar, food and would definitely recommend! Great stop on your Route 66 trip or journey through Amarillo,

It was nice that it was right by the big Texan restaurant. But that’s all it was really a pretty yucky motel.
-
We love staying here. Every time we pass through, it’s a can’t miss.
-
We loved all the little finishing cowboy touches in our room. Had a terrific meal too.

AC was ice cold even facing the west on 105 degree day. Simple clean room with what you need. Was quiet even being right by I-40.

The room was very unique and fit a western vibe. I loved how the decor in the room looked and how clean it was. The self check in and check out was amazing as well. The downside of staying here was bugs. I found a cockroach in our room that had crawled under a gap in the front door. It ran away before I could do anything about it. I also discover that my leg had insect bites after our stay at this motel (which I discovered was bed bug bites). I most likely won't be staying here again, but it was a unique experience to say the least.

While the nostalgia was special and the room was very clean, there were several disappointments that made our stay unsatisfactory. The shower is an explosion of water. There is no shelving in the shower so my razor sat on the floor while my face got blasted with water each time I had to grab my shower items from the floor. The pillow was hard as a rock, and the coffee was not drinkable. I think the creamer packets sat there for years. I honestly think you’re asking way too much for a stay at this hotel. I hoping I was assigned the quirky room with the bad shower and bad pillows because we absolutely love the restaurant and would like to give it one more chance. But I definitely cannot agree with the 9.4 (exceptional) rating. The lady that checked us in was super sweet and very professional!

One night stay. Passing through Amarillo. Clean and comfy. Road noise. Reasonable bargain room
-
Excellent room, but bring your own soap for the shower. A sliver is provided, but doesn’t cut it.
-
Over-rated. We paid for a king suite that suppose to sleep 3 but the clerk said it was impossible to sleep 3 and offered a 2 queen bed . Very disappointing. Hole in the bathtub that was patched with pieces of vinyl floor tile that turned black around the edges . It felt like a trampoline with a hole and accident about to happen. The price we paid was definitely not worth the stay.

Super fun decor in the room, there is a pool and you can walk to get your steak dinner
-
Our room was spacious and well furnished. The motel amenities were great and pur stay made our destination dinner at The Big Texan super convenient.
-
Staying at the Big Texan Motel is fun and kitschy. Surprisingly the rooms were quiet overnight despite the proximity to the highway. The best hotel laundry room I have ever seen even though you had to download an app. But no need for quarters. The rooms are fun but could use a refresh.

It’s a funny place
-
It may look rather iffy on the outside, but thats part of the old time west charm. The room was immaculate. The bed was comfortable and we had a wonderful evening with our dinner at tha Big Texan and a short walk to our room. Thank you for the enjoyable stop on our trip.

Room was clean, bed was comfortable, and staff was friendly. I wish the pool had stayed open later. Restaurant was good, although the “boot” drinks are not mixed well. Or mixed at all.

Great place to stay
