Hotel Overview

Amarillo sits on old Route 66 in the Texas Panhandle, a crossroads of big steaks, quirky roadside art, and canyon country. The Best Western Santa Fe, Amarillo, Texas, makes a convenient base, about three and a half miles from Rick Husband International Airport with adjoining rooms for families and groups.

The rooms welcome pets and bring the comforts of home, with a free full hot breakfast of waffles and cereal, yogurt, pastries, fruit, and breakfast breads, rounded out with chilled juice or Arabica coffee. A quiet, cool room makes for an easy, stress-free trip.

A legendary Route 66 steakhouse, Cadillac Ranch, the American Quarter Horse Museum, the Amarillo Zoo, and Wonderland Park are all close, with golf nearby and the airport minutes away. Southeast of the city, Palo Duro Canyon State Park, the second-largest canyon in the country and the Grand Canyon of Texas, drops some 800 feet of banded red rock, about twenty-five miles from the door.
