The Empress of Little Rock

What a special place! If you are into unique, historical and elegant, this is your place. The bed was comfortable and shower nice and hot. The gardens were beautiful. The only let down was we thought there would be a made-to-order breakfast but the cereal, muffins, coffee and juice were fine. There was only one other couple staying so it was quiet and peaceful.

The empress is an amazing historical building. It is like staying in a museum. It is very clean and comfortable

Gorgeous home with so many things to experience and explore. Check out the turret space in the attic- so fun! Close to outstanding restaurants. Private parking behind home.

Let me start by saying that the place is impressive. I was looking forward to my stay after booking. The biggest issue: the room was hot. I struggled to fall asleep on the amazingly comfortable bed due to the room being so hot. I did lower the thermostat, but the room just never cooled off. There was also cobwebs in the bathroom....I want to go back and maybe request a different room.....I wanted to give a 3 star across the board, but the property was so impressive I just couldn't go that low....the lack of personal staff interaction was also annoying.

The Empress is in/near a very nice/cool/fun section of Main St. Good food. Solid galleries. At least two very interesting antique shops. Wonderful ice cream shop. The Community Bakery is very good for pastries, coffee, breakfast or lunch. At the Empress James is a perfect host and took care of everything we needed. We would stay again if our travels take us back to Little Rock.

Easy to find, beautiful building, very nice detail with very little modern touches

Like taking a step back in time. This grand old home has been restored beautifully, and the interior appointments are as impressive as the exterior. If you like older homes (B&B) don't miss this one if you are passing through Little Rock.

We were able to check ourselves in without any problems. The property’s public areas were wonderfully decorated with turn of the century/ gilded age antiques. My only complaint was the lack of human interaction, I can only hope the proprietors get a welcoming robot in the near future.

Absolutely beautiful property. A bit disappointed by finding stained linens and a partially smoked end of something in our room for what we paid.
