We chose this hotel because of the use of the pools and free buffet breakfast. We booked the cottage for the privacy and to have our own bathroom. The cottage was cute enough but the bed was very uncomfortable and when we arrived the room was nice and warm and there was a weird piped in type space heater that... More

In response to TuTuCD, re. her stay on March 14th, we did not serve french toast on the morning in question. If you'll kindly see the comments below, our breakfast is recognized as one of the best in the region of this country. We buy expensive coffee and it is uniformly appreciated by our guests. We are unable to permit... More

Great pools. Cozy rooms. Breakfast was better than most places we've stayed. Very friendly staff. the outside mineral pools were awesome. We'll definitely return. The views from the. Hotel property. Were. Great. And the place is so peaceful. The rooms didn't have an odor or any allergens that we could notice.

The outdoor pools are so amazing we hardly used it. We have visited therapeutic mineral pools throughout the US and Europe. These... More

My family and I stayed in the Aladdin (room 7), which had 4 beds (3 in the living room area, and one in a small room. The room has a flat screen TV and a microwave. The room was nice, but a bit 'worn out'. I wasn't expecting more than that, so I was not disappointed. I've stayed at the... More

I have visited the Lava Hot Springs Inn many times. The staff is always very helpful and go above and beyond the call of duty. This time, they had an unexpected pipe burst, and all hands were on deck to fix the problem and get the pools refilled with wonderful mineral water as quickly as possible. As an added treat,... More
