It was the perfect place to stay to walk my dog in the Hot Springs National Park and Bathhouse Row. Both places were close.

I’m in love with this place. Thankfully I only live 4 hours away - I can’t wait to go back!! So friendly and lovely and private - up the road from Bathhouse Row, but within walking distance. Just perfect.

Loved our stay at Happy Hollow, my only complaint was the bathroom/shower was small. Other than that we had a great time and was happy being able to walk to many things. Loved having the trail right across the street and the hotel is in a quiet area.

Retro but updated. All the basics you need for a comfortable nights stay. If you plan on walking around a lot and spending only a little time in your room, this is perfect for a budget friendly option. But they do offer cable and 300 channels if you decide to be lazy in bed. Everything was super clean, no carpet, staff had extra supplies if needed, ice available with disposable buckets, plenty of parking, spring water fill-up station literally around the corner, and just across from the entrance for the mountain tower path. I've stayed here twice now and absolutely love how peaceful it is. Also, if you're thinking of someplace else because of a pool, there's no need. Literally less than 10 minutes away (walking) is the Quapaw bathhouse where you can pay $25 for a day pass to soak in their mineral pools. They have a little cafe inside as well for drinks and snacks.

Thank you for allowing us to use the pool before check in. And then check in early. Rooms and property were really cute. Bed felt cushy at first but quickly after, I realized the mattress was very old and in need of replacement. But overall, worth the price.

The Happy Hollow a gem on our cross-country Road trip. We are traveling with pets and it was pet friendly, rooms are extremely clean and the grounds kept up. The location could not be any more convenient; directly across the street from a walking path to Hot Springs national Park and the scenic Drive to the top. It was a short walk to town to the bath houses and dining options. We did not require a pool or Jacuzzi I just really appreciated the peaceful grounds in front and the patio furniture on our front porch to sit down and enjoy our coffee . This is one of those small independently owned motels, built in the 60s, very well-maintained, and has the vibe I love when I’m traveling. I would absolutely stay here again. Also, the staff was very friendly and helpful.

This is the best place to lay your head and get a wonderful nights rest or afternoon nap. It is so clean, staff is above and beyond in the customer service area. Most comfortable bed and cannot brag enough about how well maintained and clean the area is. Such a peaceful and tranquil area no matter how long you stay. Such a quick walk down the strip to all the shops and bath house row. And lets not forget, the spring just steps away to fill the bottle the motel has for you. Simply no other place can compare to the great lengths the owner and staff has taken to keep you comfortable!
