The Most Famous Hotel In Arkansas Is Also One Of The Most Historic Places You’ll Ever Sleep

Arkansas has its fair share of famous sites and historic landmarks. Sometimes, you’ll find a place that qualifies as both. That’s certainly the case with The Arlington. Not only is it the most famous hotel in the state, but it’s also one of the most historic places you’ll ever sleep.

With nearly 500 rooms and suites, The Arlington in Hot Springs is the biggest hotel in Arkansas. But that’s hardly its only claim to fame.

Not only is it “one of the South’s premiere resorts,” but it’s also the most famous hotel in the state, according to the website Insider.

The amenities are no doubt just as much to blame for the hotel’s fame as its colorful past.

Speaking of luxury, The Arlington is home to a top-rated spa.

Perfect for a day of pampering, it offers a full array of services. Its best feature, though, is a thermal water spa, which allows guests to bathe in hot spring water that’s pumped directly into the hotel.

The Arlington’s locale is another huge perk. Hot Springs National Park’s famed Bathhouse Row is right outside the hotel’s front door.

And just across the street, there are museums, galleries, antique stores, shops, and eateries.
