Frequently asked questions

How do I book a block of guest rooms for conference attendees in Hot Springs?
If you need 9 or more rooms, Engine Groups handles the room-block booking for you. For 8 rooms or fewer, you can book self-serve through Engine's platform. Both options give you access to pre-negotiated rates and consolidated invoicing.
Can Engine help with both the hotel rooms and the meeting space for my event?
Yes. For the guest rooms, Engine Groups handles blocks of 9 or more rooms, and you can book 8 or fewer self-serve. For the meeting or event space itself, you can find and request venues through Engine Spaces, which connects you to over 40,000 meeting and event venues.
What should I look for when choosing conference hotels in Hot Springs?
Start with the size of the meeting space and how many attendees it can hold. The Embassy Suites by Hilton at Hot Springs Convention Center has a largest event space of about 75,000 square feet and can accommodate up to 8,000 people, with 246 guest rooms. Also consider the number of event spaces available and whether the hotel has enough rooms to house your group comfortably.
What's the best way to get to Hot Springs for a corporate event?
Most attendees fly into the airport serving Little Rock, about 55 miles away, and rent a car or arrange ground transportation. When booking hotels for your group, consider properties that are convenient to the venues you're using and easy to reach from the airport.
How far ahead should I book hotel rooms when planning a large meeting in Hot Springs?
For a conference or big event, start looking at least three to six months out, especially if you need a sizable room block. Popular dates and properties with the meeting capacity you need can fill up quickly, so reaching out early gives you more options.
