We’ve been asked many questions about Hotel Options in Eureka Springs. Where to Book your accommodations? Where should you stay in Eureka Springs? What Hotel Should you choose for your Eureka Springs Trip?
In this list you will see some vastly different options for staying the night in Eureka Springs, Arkansas.
We recommend booking your accommodations through Booking.com because they offer free cancellation options on the majority of purchases. Kayla and I have personally used booking through the website and phone app and it has been a great tool for us.
Our list covers a hotel we have stayed at, others we have explored in person and the rest we have researched and read recommendations from friends. We personally believe these are unique fun hotels that you would enjoy staying at.
5. Family Fun at the Best Western Inn of the Ozarks
On our most recent stay in Eureka Springs, we stayed at the Best Western Inn of the Ozarks. I recommend this hotel to families with kids because it has many areas of fun to be had.
They have a playground, a mini golf course, pool table, air hockey table, yard games and other related games as well.
The large swimming pool is complete with a waterfall and has poolside movie nights.
Also included on site is a basketball court and tennis court!
We stayed in a Suite, it was clean, comfortable and spacious.
The view from our back patio was beautiful!
Myrtie Mae’s is available for dining and just steps away from the front desk.
We had such a great experience here and the staff was happy to assist us with anything we needed.
Find out more about the hotel in our review article or go ahead and book it here.
4. Spooky Stay at the Crescent Hotel
Though I haven’t stayed at the Crescent Hotel I have visited it many times and explored much of the building. We visited the hotel for breakfast in the Crystal Dining Room and explored the museum and observation deck during our Historic Tram Tour.
(No, I’m not afraid of staying the night here … I think… haha)
I think staying the night at the Crescent Hotel would be a very interesting experience.
I don’t think I’d take my boys to stay there overnight at their current age but maybe someday soon my wife and I will have an adult weekend in Eureka Springs and we can stay here.
The hotel itself is beautiful and many people even get married here.
It’s kind of funny because it’s beautiful and has wonderful restaurants, a swimming pool and many of the things people love about hotels. The only difference is many people consider the hotel haunted.
What do you think? Would you stay here? If so, go ahead and book it here before it’s all booked up.
3. Tiger-tastic Stay at Turpentine Creek Wildlife Refuge
One of the most exciting accommodations in Eureka Springs is the Turpentine Creek Wildlife Refuge.
Yes, you read that right! you can stay the night at the wildlife refuge.
They have many options available for individuals, couples and families.
We haven’t stayed here yet but we did enjoy our visit to Turpentine Wildlife Refuge and hope to stay the night there in the near future.
Our tour guide informed us about how fun it is to hear the animals roar throughout the night from the onsite lodging.
If you want to book a stay overnight among the wild animals at Turpentine Cree Wildlife Refuge go ahead and book it here, and for more information on Turpentine Creek Wildlife Refuge Check out our Article.
2. Downtown Experience at the Basin Park Hotel
If you are visiting Eureka Springs to experience the Downtown life of shopping and fun you can’t go wrong with the Basin Park Hotel.
The Basin Park Hotel has been accommodating travelers ever since 1905 and is located in a wonderful central part of Downtown Eureka Springs.
It is also where you can get tickets to the Downtown & Underground Tour.
We went on the tour and had an amazing time.
Check out our Downtown & Underground Tour Article for more info.
If you want to stay in the downtown area go ahead and book the Basin Park Hotel Here.
1. Outdoorsy Stay in a Tree-house
If you are more into the outdoors and don’t want to stay in the city I’d recommend staying in a tree-house.
There are a few different tree house options.
We passed some on the way towards lake Leatherwood and Thorncrown Chapel.
Don’t worry, they aren’t too far from the downtown area and other Eureka Springs attractions.
