Hotels near Hot Springs Memorial Field Airport - HOT, Hot Springs

National Park is small and manageable to explore, natural spring water is fun to try, restaurants like Superior Bathhouse Brewery (great outdoor seating), Rolando’s (Mexican food and eating at the base of a mountain) the Colonnial and Pancake Shop for breakfasts were lovely, the bathhouses are very cool and should be fully explored, great walk along the Grand Promenade next to the downtown. There are loads of abandoned buildings which is unnerving and bizarre, don’t waste your time at the Ohio Club restaurant if you aren’t a local.

We had such a wonderful time in Hot Springs. Everyone was so nice! We dug crystals twice on our visit. They weren't in Hot Springs but just down the road in Mt. Ida. Had so much fun. We took a mineral bath downtown. Everyone at Buckstaff Bathhouse were so very nice and helpful! I highly recommend them!!!!! The pizza delivery person was even so nice!!! I really noticed there was hardly any litter in Hot Springs and throughout the entire state. Beautiful absolutely beautiful State!!!!! We will be back!

The surrounding area was beautiful. Downtown area had a variety of shops, eateries, and things to do. I will definitely visit Hot Springs in the future. The Tower Look-out offered a panoramic view of the area and it was breathtaking. Their air-conditioning was not working, so it was extremely hot and uncomfortable. But the staff were very helpful and kind.

Nice mountain town to spend 4 or 5-days in. Nice amusement/water park, definitely ride the Ducks for a short tour, Downtown has a nice boutique shopping area. Ther are a number of Flea Markets, Antique shops, and thrift stores in the area. We found several nice restaurants. There were boats and such for rent to water recreation. Also, a number of mountain hiking trails.

We enjoyed the area National parks and lakes in the area. I shopped in many of the stores downtown, of which there are many varied types. We were there in mid August and learned that many close in the middle of the week, so even eateries were closed on Wednesdays and Thursdays. Sadly, we missed our Duck ride because of too few tickets sold. School had started that week. All together, we enjoyed our stay. Our best dinner was at an Italian restaurant named Mama’s Little Italy. It was a little bit out of the way, but really worth it. Best bread ever.

Hot Springs had so many places to see. The stores were plentiful for souvenirs. We did the tram tour which was ok, but disappointed we didn't get to see more (the guide drove us by several houses which though nice, didn't impress me much). I would have rather seen more nature stuff. There were places to fill up water jugs for free with their spring water which was pretty neat. The people that we encountered were super nice, especially the lady at the visitor center downtown. She was very knowledgeable.
