Hot Springs, Arkansas, has been a tourist destination for over a century. After exploring the National Park and surrounding areas, Dame Fortune’s Cottage Court, a traditional motor lodge, provides the basic accommodations you need for a good night’s sleep. Completely renovated between 2016 and 2017, the decor is vintage-inspired and gives you the feel of how many people traveled in the middle of the 20th century.
Cottage Court provides accommodations perfect for small families and couples looking for simple accommodations without frills or fanfare.

Rooms: Basic yet Comfortable
I’m not going to lie; Cottage Court is not a luxury accommodation, but it is clean and comfortable. My room had two queen-sized beds, and a bureau. I would have liked a chair or table for working, but I’m not sure there was enough room. For most guests, this wouldn’t be an issue, but for anyone traveling for business, you may want to be sure to book a Deluxe King or Queen, which have small sitting areas. They also offer a petite queen and single queen rooms. Each room has a single-cup coffee maker, a hairdryer, and basic toiletries. The bathroom was small but clean, and I can only assume the original toilets were smaller than the current ones, as my leg hit the toilet paper dispenser and I had to move out of the way to get the toilet paper; however, I was rarely in my room, and it certainly served its purpose. I could not hear the guests in the room next to me (a fellow travel writer was in the room next to me and did a full workout in her room, which I did not hear a peep of); however, some street noise and outside noise did drift into my room, like a truck starting up early in the morning and a dog barking on its morning walk.
