Review:

Fordyce Bathhouse, which was a working public bathing facility from 1915 to 1962, is now home to the visitor center for Hot Springs National Park. Guests at the park can take a tour of the Fordyce bathhouse to learn about the bathing routines of the past. The bathhouse has been fully restored to its historical heyday, reminding visitors of the roaring 20s and 30s.

Its elegant first floor is covered in marble and stained glass, while the second and third floors are home to the men’s baths and dressing rooms and the music room, respectively. Surprisingly, this bathhouse even had a bowling alley during its operational tenure, completing the recreational bathing experience.
