Hot Springs Arkansas Event Planning

Special Occasion or None at All

Hilltop Manor is the perfect venue to celebrate a special occasion; such as birthdays, anniversaries, baby shower, rehearsal dinner, family reunion, engagement party, wedding reception and the list goes on. Perhaps you just want to get together with family or friends. We can even set up an elegant dinner for 2, what a perfect place to ask that most important question. We believe that every gathering is important and should be customized to the host and hostess. Please contact us for more information.

Our Facility:
Hilltop Manor is a craftsman style home that was built in 1890. The rooms are open and spacious with ten-foot beamed ceilings and original hardwood floors. The main level can seat up to 100 guests inside or out.

The dining room has lighting fixtures that were chosen by the original first lady of the house. The story is told that she bought them while on their honeymoon in Asia. The fireplace in the dining room is the largest in the house and gives this expansive area a warm glow.

The parlor is also available which features a fireplace cove, perfect for a cozy dinner for two, and a main area that can seat 40 guests for a sit-down dinner with a gorgeous bowed parlor window. This is a great room for baby showers; the comfortable leather furniture gives a relaxed feel to the room.

The two rooms are joined by a large foyer which can be set-up as a dessert buffet or beverage bar. If you would like to have a full meal, an outside caterer can be brought in to serve plated or buffet-style.

We have a few event packages for you to choose from. However, we welcome your input to customize the perfect ensemble for your event.
