Best for
This hotel suits leisure travelers visiting Hot Springs National Park, the historic bathhouse district, and Lake Hamilton attractions, thanks to its central-but-quiet location off Highway 70 and proximity to the riverboat dock. It also works well for families needing suite-style space with a sofabed and for business travelers who need a meeting room and business center for short work trips combined with sightseeing.
Travel tips
Guests will want a car, since many attractions like Magic Springs, Garvan Woodland Gardens, and the bathhouses are several miles away and best reached by short drives rather than on foot. Plan around the roughly 5-minute drive to the Belle of Hot Springs Riverboat dock if booking a lake tour, and budget about 15-20 minutes to reach downtown sights such as the Grand Promenade or Gangster Museum of America. Front desk staff have been noted as knowledgeable about local sightseeing routes and parking, so asking them for directions on arrival can save time.
