There are hundreds, perhaps thousands, of lodging options as one travels across all eight states along Route 66. Selecting a motel or hotel to your liking can be a daunting experience!
Some Route 66 travelers seek out historic, vintage motels like the Munger Moss Motel, Wagon Wheel Motel, Boots Court, Wigwam Village and Blue Swallow. These iconic lodging facilities are typically independently-operated by "Mom and Pop" owners. Other roadtrippers prefer the amenities of newer hotels and vacation rentals.
On this page we highlight some of the popular, classic, historic motels still in operation along the Mother Road, and present hotel listings and traveler reviews from TripAdvisor. Also included are restaurant reviews and travel guides from TripAdvisor.
This website has no affiliation or connection with the listed hotel properties. Listings from TripAdvisor are provided as a starting point in your hotel research. It is always recommended that travelers do their own research and make informed decisions about the hotels they book.

Amarillo offers more than 100 hotels and places to stay. It is a great stopping point for those traveling Historic Route 66, with not only many lodging options, but dining possibilities as well.
There are three primary clusters of lodgingin Amarillo - downtown, on the east side of the city along I-40, and on the west side near Soncy Road (exit 64 from I-40). We prefer the Soncy Road area, near I-40 and the medical district, but that is just a personal preference.

Wigwam Village No. 6 in Holbrook
Located at 811 West Hopi Drive in Holbrook is one of the three remaining Wigwam Villages. The other two are located in San Bernardino, California (No. 7) , and Cave City, Kentucky (No. 2). A total of seven Wigwam Villages were constructed between 1936 and the 1950s. While passing through Cave City, Kentucky in 1938, Chester E. Lewis was impressed by the distinctive design of the original Wigwam Village constructed in 1937 by architect Frank Redford. Mr. Lewis purchased copies of the plans and the right to use the Wigwam Village name. Finished in 1950, Mr. Lewis’ village was the sixth village build, thus its designation as Wigwam Village No. 6. Today, each teepee has a private bathroom with toilet and shower, a television, air conditioner and original hand-made hickory furniture. Vintage automobiles are permanently parked throughout the property, including a Studebaker that belonged to Mr. Lewis. It continues to be operated by the Lewis family.
