The Arlington was obviously quite the destination for Spa pampering during the age of Al Capone and others of that era. It seems that the grand old lady still has the foundation of her amazing chandeliers, super heavy duty spa plumbing and the graciousness of her staff have never changed. The food in the dining room was also top notch.... More

Four females tried the salon in May 2012. Three had spa pedicures for $60.00 and basically got a color change. The spa chairs are broken, no hot water, and they used toe nail clippers to trim cuticles. They said the owner has no money to fix and repair. The facial was great but we would never go back.

Old hotel that looked charming upon walking up the stairs to the huge verandah. Rooms are average size, bathroom very small, shower old, dingy and dark. Small bar in lobby with people constantly running in to get free popcorn. Walk to everything, although there's nothing much to walk to. Older lady at spa reception is very stern, not friendly. Spent... More

Classic, yes, updated, no. This could be an amazing hotel if someone would spend some money and update the furniture and fixtures. Some of the repairs that have been done were done poorly and are just incomplete. Good luck.

I have not been to Hot Spring's in many years and my Mom and I went and two other friends made this trip for Mother's Day Weekend and we stayed at the Arlington. Well at first sight it seemed to be a charming hotel. But looks can be deceiving. We pulled into what we thought was the entrance only to... More

"Historical" for the Arlington Hotel means it hasn't been updated in ancient history. Sagging bed, peeling paint, bathrooms from the 1960s and we had a family of wasps in our room. Maybe (probably) the worse hotel I've ever stayed at. I would have given it a "Terrible" if they hadn't moved us out of the "wasp room" quickly...but the replacement... More

We were in town for a dance competition for my daughter and were lucky enough to stay at The Arlington. We travel to many different cities each year for different competitions and The Arlington has been my favorite in all of the 6 years we have been traveling. The service was amazing, our room was spacious and clean. One of... More

We were put there as part of a convention at the expense of our vendor. I had read about the "charm" of the historic hotel. I don't consider old particle board 50's furniture charming. I also don't consider a bathroom with plasic sliding doors on the bathtub charming. The worst- the towels!! hand sized towels which could double as sandpaper... More

You can still have a perfectly acceptable stay at the Arlington. However there is no doubt she has been in a slow decline since our last stay several years ago. There is just no compare if you want to stay on Bathhouse Row and you are not a fan of McHotels. If you love historic properties and are prepared to... More
