Everything was great. Clean room, comfy beds, good shower pressure, the room stayed cool on 90+ days, fabulous location to the National Park (across the street) AND a few blocks downhill was downtown! Very quiet at night, loved the outdoor table and chairs for morning coffee, brewed in a REAL cup in our room, enjoying the view of the National Park . The owner is so kind and thoughtful, and gave us great advice on things to do, places to go!

Woman who checked us in was great - friendly, welcoming, full of good local info and recommendations. The location was perfect for us - easy walk to "bath house row", restaurants, the national park and trailheads. Not fancy or elegant, but clean, comfortable and a great value.

The cutest little gem of a hotel located in the Hot Springs National Park. This was our 4th time staying at Happy Hollow and we'd stay here again anytime we're in Hot Springs. It's a retro looking motel that sits in the National Park. Rooms are always super clean. Staff is friendly and gets you whatever you need. Loved that our room was so spacious and all for a great price. Walking distance to the hikes of course but also to the main drag in Hot Springs.
