About

Amarillo

Amarillo sits in the Ruggero Settimo district, a short walk from the historical centre and the shopping street. The building combines historic charm with modern comforts, and Wi-Fi is free throughout. A private parking garage is available nearby with valet service.

Each double room includes a king-size bed, air conditioning, a balcony, and a coffee machine. Guests consistently single out the spacious bathrooms and the soundproofed windows that keep the lively surroundings at bay. The staff, particularly Veronica, receive frequent praise for personalised service.

In brief

What works, what to weigh

+

Strengths

4 reasons to book
  • Outstanding location — Guests repeatedly call the position magnificent, perfect, or stellar, with easy walks to the historical centre, the shopping street, and the airport bus stop.
  • Warm, personal service — Staff go out of their way – one reviewer describes Veronica's personalized breakfast deliveries. The staff rating is the hotel's highest category.
  • Quiet rooms in a lively area — Double-glazed windows ensure a peaceful night's sleep despite the surrounding bustle, with soundproofed rooms listed as an amenity.
  • Spacious, well-equipped rooms — Rooms come with king-size beds, balconies, coffee machines, and bathrooms that guests say are better in person than in photos.

Worth weighing

4 to weigh
  • Limited check-in window — Check-in is only from 13:00 to 20:00, which may be restrictive if your flight arrives late – the airport shuttle is paid and must be arranged.
  • Parking is valet only — There is no self-parking option; a private garage is provided nearby but with valet service only, so you can't park and grab your keys yourself.
  • No pets allowed — If you're travelling with a dog or cat, this isn't the place – the policy explicitly prohibits pets, and the hotel is allergy-free.
  • Breakfast quality varies — While one guest adored the breakfast variety, another review doesn't mention it at all – and the 7.2/10 overall rating from the first reviewer suggests breakfast might not be a universal highlight.

“A very enjoyable stay – I'd come back. The breakfast spread was impressive, with a wide choice of coffees, teas, breads, pastries, and meats. The location was perfect, close to the main sights, and I had drinks at Kentia Lounge Bar just 200 metres away.”
