My husband, adult daughter and I stayed at the Spa last weekend. I had researched well on Trip Advisor. I had been to the Spa one other time, for mineral bath and massage. At that time Jocelyn was my massage therapist and was amazing. I have nothing but great things to say about this woman as a professional and a... More

I needed time away from my stressful job and family issues. Where should I go, not to far from home, not to pricey. I decided on old mineral springs hotel based on prior visits. The updates to the hotel were great. No it's not the ritz. It's a little slice of the past in a quiet old town with a... More

Greet staff seemed to want to be somewhere else. Hallway outside our room door had BLACK MOLD growing on the walls. Supposedly new carpets were so badly stained we didn't walk barefoot in the room. Part of the pool area was taped off with HAZARD tape. Our mineral baths scheduled a week in advance were forgotten and no one was... More

This place is fun, the water is amazing, the baths are nice and toasty. The massages are not that of a luxury spa, they are more like a backrub that makes you go to sleep. The food in the restaurant is very delicious and the breakfast is great. The rooms are old. We take a girls trip to this stop... More

I have been here many times. It is a somewhat dated hotel (most rooms) but the spa is divine and the costs are beyond anything in this century. The food in the restaurants is okay, prices are WAY below average. you can get a pasta, salad and drink for $12. When you are there, you may notice the town people... More

Yes this hotel is older, but if you have realistic expectations that this is not a high end spa you will not be sorry you went. My friend and I did the weekend getaway and had a wonderful, relaxing time. Everyone was super friendly, and very accommodating. We had our mineral baths and massages (we upgraded to the 50 min....

We spent a weekend at the Original Springs Mineral Spa and Hotel and would say it was a unique experience. The hotel has been offering mineral baths and massages since 1867. The best part of the hotel is the long front porch with wicker chairs - the south facing veranda is a great place to sit and have a glass... More

It was our 30th wedding anniversary. We were so dissappointed. Instead of a romantic dinner, as promised on website, there was a business party going on 5 feet away. They had a p.a. system and it was plain awful. We could not have a conversation over the noise. The rooms were noisy, we could plainly hear every sound made in... More
