Hotel Hale occupies the oldest building on Bathhouse Row, constructed in 1892 as the Hale Bathhouse and later reworked into a boutique hotel with a mid-century modern look. It has just nine suites, each with a large soaking tub that has hot spring mineral water pumped directly into the room, so bathing here happens privately rather than in a shared pool.
The spa side of Hotel Hale is built into the rooms themselves rather than offered as a separate treatment menu. There's no communal bathhouse floor or spa facility apart from the tubs; the amenity is the room. The property sits at 341 Central Ave in downtown Hot Springs, within walking distance of Hot Springs National Park and the other historic buildings along Bathhouse Row.
On site is Eden, the hotel's restaurant, set around a living wall and skylight, where guests can eat without leaving the building. Access to the soaking tubs is limited to hotel guests only, and the property falls into the luxury price tier. Anyone considering a stay mainly for the tubs should know there's no day-pass option; the experience comes with booking a room.
