About The Hotel

If you’re hunting for a private hot tub experience in Lava Hot Springs, this inn offers an interesting option. The in-room hot tubs are the main draw here, giving travelers a chance to soak and unwind without leaving their room. Each spa-style room comes with its own personal whirlpool, perfect for those who want total privacy after a day exploring the local hot springs.

Guests have mixed feelings about the property, sitting at #6 out of 7 B&Bs in town with a 2.8 rating on TripAdvisor. While the hot tub is a solid feature, some travelers mention the rooms need updating. The good news? You get free parking, laundry service, and both indoor and outdoor pools to complement your in-room jacuzzi experience.

The location is a big plus for hot spring lovers. You’re just steps away from Lava Hot Springs’ famous public thermal pools, making this inn a convenient base for soaking enthusiasts. If you don’t mind slightly older decor and want a private hot tub in your room, this could be your perfect spot. Just set expectations - this isn’t a luxury resort, but a basic, functional inn with the bonus of personal whirlpool access.

"The pools themselves are spacious and quite beautiful, which made for a relaxing afternoon. That said, some of the amenities and service left a bit to be desired. When I asked about lockers, the gal at the front desk told me they had them but failed to mention you need to bring your own lock. Towels are also not available for rent, only for purchase at $13 each. She seemed to being trying to provide as little service effort as possible. The temperature listings for the pools were very approximate. For example, the cold plunge was listed at 45°F but felt closer to 65°F, while the hot plunge seemed at least 10 degrees hotter than posted. As someone who visits hot springs regularly, I was surprised that no one seemed to be monitoring or adjusting the pool temperatures with a thermometer. While the cold plunge may not have had an easy fix, simply reducing the flow of hot water could have brought the hottest pool closer to its listed range. Overall, it’s not a bad place to while away an afternoon, as long as you go in with modest expectations about customer service and facilities. The pools themselves are lovely, just remember to bring your own lock and towel."
