The National Park Service says Hot Springs National Park has no entrance fee and no charge for ranger-led tours, and that the Fordyce Bathhouse visitor center and museum offers a free self-guided tour of its floors. One older park document lists the visitor center as open daily 9 a.m.–5 p.m., so confirm current hours. We verified no bathhouse spa prices or local transit fares.
