One of the best places I've ever stayed

I've done a lot of traveling over the last few years, and this may be the best place I've stayed. The home is absolutely beautiful and peaceful. You can almost feel the history of the place when you walk in. Great owners, wonderful rooms. I cannot recommend this place enough.

Staying at The Empress pf Little Rock was one of the most enjoyable things I have done in Arkansas. The staff was amazing. The attention to detail to bring you back in time was on point. The Empress is very luxurious and relaxing and is the prefect get away.

Donald, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Expedia advertised that they still do breakfast and a kitchen was available as part of the amenities , but when I got there it was not true. I thought I got linked to the direct website of the place. Later I went to google and there it was plain as day, we do not do breakfast. I wish there was a mini refrigerator and microwave in the room. There was college fridge in the hallway that you share with others.

A Gem in Little Rock

We have a new favorite place in Little Rock. The Empress is a special place! The accommodations, the service and the history - it was our first bed & breakfast experience and it did not disappoint. Antonio and Keith went above and beyond to make our stay perfect!
Anthony, 4-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The Empress of Little Rock is our official “special occasions” stay when we are in the area. Antonio and Kieth are so sweet and genuinely interested in their patrons. The rooms are meticulous and have all the modern amenities, great style and decor, and they have added all the special touches to ensure your stay is perfect. This place is always worth the splurge and it’s nice to see a little bit of Little Rock history. Thank you, so much!! ❤️
