Located in the heart of bath house row, this is a charming old building with modern touches. I will…read moresay that it was slightly difficult to find (we drove right by) as the front of the building is thin and doesn't stand out (look for the red/gold Ohio sign and it will help). There is valet parking immediately in front. The property was well maintained, the staff were friendly. Our room had a view of The Arlington and the mountain tower. The room was clean and well kept. The only complaint is the air unit was quite loud (thankfully I always travel with ear plugs). Overall I would stay again.

After being awakened by tornado warnings (both from my phone and alarms sounding off throughout the…read moretown), getting a small glimpse of the aurora borealis from the rooftop, being continually surprised at how good the food at the Avenue restaurant is, and questionable brushes with the paranormal, I can confidently say this was one of the most memorable stays at a hotel. Our initial room had a view of the wall next door and air conditioning units. I didn't want a week of a crappy view, so we asked to stay on a higher floor and they obliged with our request. We ended up in room 510 with a much better view of the town. The room was clean and modern, but the bathroom seemed small and the shower's partial glass meant water was continually spilling out onto the bathroom floor. Maybe add a full glass shower door? The exterior windows could use a washing as well. Seeing lots of spiderwebs (outside) was icky. There is no self-parking either. Valet parking is $30/day; not bad as I've stayed at other hotels (i.e., San Francisco and Los Angeles) where overnight parking is $75-$85. The hotel staff were all very friendly and helpful. P.S. You may be wondering about the "questionable brushes with the paranormal" comment. Two strange occurrences happened to my bf who doesn't believe in anything paranormal. First was at the hotel lobby restroom. As he was washing his hands, the soap bottle moved a good 6 inches on its own. He lifted the bottle, thinking there was water underneath that caused it to move across the surface. Nope, no water. Side note; there's an old urinal from 1913 in the men's restroom located in that same bathroom (hotel lobby). Perhaps the ghosts like old urinals. Second, my bf went to the back exit, in an attempt to walk up the staircase that would eventually lead to the rooftop. When he saw there was a musician performing at the top staircase of the rooftop, he came back down and tried using his key card to enter the hotel. Spent a good ten minutes before he called me and asked to let him in. I met him at the door, he explained what happened. I used his key card to see if there was an issue with the card. Nope, key card worked and let me right in. In this situation, it could have been an odd glitch, but I do find it interesting that this happened right after the soap bottle incident. Last note... we were talking to a bartender from another restaurant who had worked at this hotel as a bartender a few years ago. She said she was closing up the bar one night and a basket from a top shelf had fallen off. It was only her and one other person and neither were near the area. Spooked her out quite a bit! COMING BACK? Absolutely. There are some minor inconveniences that I mentioned, but there was so much more that I loved about this hotel, especially its historic vibe.

The pools and grotto are on the seventh floor, and there is a trail behind it. There is mineral water on the first and seventh floor that you can fill up your water jugs. I didn't experience any paranormal activity. The lobby is absolutely beautiful. We enjoyed our stay and will be back in the future. I would ignore the complaints about dirty rooms or cracks in the wall because this is an old hotel, if you want something fancy and perfect then book an expensive shiny hotel.

Obviously the building is very old, but it is outdated and a lot of things were a mess or broken as you are walking up to the bathhouse. Upon arriving to the bathhouse they are separated men and women. I thought it was a public pool. As you post you have to walk to get ready for the spa experience, it's just weird, everything is so old, random, not organized. UNTIL you get to the actual bath house where the tubs are. Here is where everything starts and is relaxing. Khristina was taking cares of us. She prepped the individual tubs and would walk us through the steps. 20 minutes in your own private hot spring tub, 20 minutes in either the sauna or laying in a bed to cool off, then 20 minutes of hot towel wrapped around your body. This is where I was relaxed to the max. Such an awesome experience! Khristina really made it a wonderful experience for me! I would do this again for sure.

Best Western - Road Trip Practicality Over Fancy Arrived…read more4/19-4/21 2026 We do a lot of long road trips, this one being a full six weeks, so priorities shift. At this point, I'll take a place where I can park right outside my door over a fancy, overpriced hotel any day. Convenience wins when you're living out of a suitcase. This location checked that box well. Easy access, practical, and overall a solid stop for the night. That said... breakfast. I've noticed over time that Best Western's breakfast quality has slipped a bit, and this location didn't help change that impression. What really threw me off was that it wasn't self-serve. Instead, you're standing there while someone portions your food. Not ideal when all you want is a quick, easy start to the day. A little "wait, what?" moment. The tougher part was the service during breakfast. Both mornings, the servers felt cold and uninviting. No warmth, no friendliness, and definitely none of that Southern charm you kind of hope for when you're traveling through the region. Overall, it did the job, and I'd still choose this kind of setup for road trips. But a better breakfast experience, both in quality and attitude, would make a big difference.

I had our entire itinerary planned and hotels reserved back in March, then decided to make a few changes after listening to a few new-to-me places from a friend who has been to Arkansas with her husband several times. Our 2 double beds room was $160.68. It's one of the nicest Best Westerns we had ever stayed at. That being said, it's not glitzy. Both beds were super stiff and uncomfortable. Of course my kids didn't complain because they are young. Lol. Dogs 30 lbs or less were welcome for a one-time $25 non-refundable fee per stay. My daughters and I loved their outdoor pool which closed at 10:30 PM. It was by far the cleanest pool we had used all year. Most of the staff members were all extremely friendly and used words like "sweetheart" and "darlin'." Just get over it if you usually don't appreciate niceties, manners, and that sort of thing. The breakfast had actual service - not the usual do-it-yourself set-up at most BWs. Kind of like cafeteria style, but they also brought plates out to customers. It just depended on the item. Huge fan for the price!

The swimming pool is not as big as advertised, and the "open" fishing dock is closed unless you pay an extra fee. What is that??? Why even advertise it??? The hotel put chairs behind a very big and distracting fence so there really isn't a view. We go up to the front desk with our three kids, and ask if there is a room with an amazing view, he says, "I gotchu." Hands us a key to room 607 and ONE cookie. We have 3 kids....wtf are we going to do with one cookie?? I asked if the kids can get one each, he pointed at the empty tin can and said we sell them if you would like more. $18....I would've rather not have the one sir. So room 607 is on the 6th floor. Be prepared because the elevators are TINY. We could barely fit. Had to make 3 trips up and down with our luggage. Poorly built. Also, room 607 has a decent view, if you can look past all the construction that is in front. Ummmm, thanks?? I swear I thought we were being pranked. So swimming pool was packed. Oh, you want a towel? Must sign them out in the front desk, which took 17 minutes to be exact, then if you lose a towel, it's $20 per. And you have to write your DL number on a piece of paper for all the strangers to see. What a joke. Let's move onto breakfast, oh, there is none. Apparently they got rid of their buffet over a year ago and never changed their advertising. Also refused to comp us because we didn't go through their website, went through a 3rd party (booked through my credit card), so refused to accept my Hilton honors account. Why am I a Hilton Honors member if I don't even get to utilize any of my perks?? WHAT A SCAM!!! Marie McFee was the manager on duty and couldn't even talk to me in person. Had the hotel clerk (who was mortified) communicate all the things with me. Don't spend a dime at this scam hotel. Did I mention the whole 6th floor smelled like weed? Usually I don't care but not with my 3 children. At least have the courtesy to go on the damn balcony. Trashy hotels usually have trashy guests. $239/night for one of the worst hotel experiences we have ever encountered. And we've had bed bugs before....
