Toby, 3-night trip

10/10 Excellent

The happy hollows was an overall great experience! The staff was very pleasant and accommodating. The room was spacious, clean and overall comfortable. There wasnt even an extra for our puppy. The motel is not even a mile away from tons of things to do. If I return to hot springs the happy hollows will be my first choice in lodgings. 5 star visit

I love how it still captures the charm of its era. The place is very clean and in an ideal location—perfect for bringing your dogs along. It’s nestled at the foot of the hill with hiking trails nearby, yet right next to the vibrant strip of town. Highly recommend!

Always a wonderful stay.
Tori, 2-night trip

will stay here again.

I have stayed here several times and always enjoyed it. This visit was no different. Small quaint older location like many in Hot Springs. Quiet, safe, Easy parking, friendly staff, short walk to downtown. Bathrooms are tiny. very clean and well maintained.
Joe, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

We always love staying at the Happy Hollow. We call it a diamond in the rough. The great staff, allowing pets and the proximity to the National Park and the town center far outweighs the flaky paint
Wayne, 2-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Excellent area. Next to the hiking trails. Short walk to the hot springs.
