I am going with my boyfriend to Hot Springs, AR for his birthday this year in June. We are trying to decide to either stay at the Embassy Suites or the Country Inn and Suites. The Country Inn and Suites is less expensive, but I would like to know if anybody has stayed in either. We are also going to get a 50 min. couples massage and bath at Chrysalis Day Spa and would like to see if anybody has been there before? Also up for good restaurant and bar suggestions in Hot Springs we both love a good steak and a great nightspot with local music.
I’d actually recommend the Arlington Hotel in downtown Hot Springs. It’s literally right next to the hot springs, and when I stayed there I got to enjoy their hidden treat… the swimming pool is heated by the hot springs water. There is a jacuzzi, and it was a real treat to move between pool and jacuzzi for an hour or so. I wish I was there now.

Have fun while you’re there!
