Review The Empress of Little Rock Small Luxury Hotel, Little Rock, AR

Video

Imagine an evening in the family parlor at the Biltmore, surrounded by luxurious antiques, the warmth of the fire draining away the tension of a busy corporate day, stretched out in your smoking jacket or Victorian dressing gown, and that special book you've been postponing for the "right time". Each room at THE EMPRESS conveys just such a feeling in your own private sitting area. Or imagine luxuriating in the "bath of the century" (19th that is) provided by a claw foot tub and the soft glow of long ago lighting. Perhaps the lure of the "secret" watch tower in the turret intrigues you. Or imagine yourself as Scarlett, descending a magnificent double staircase made of walnut and cypress, lighted by the rainbow hues of a 64 square foot stained glass sky light. Breakfast beckons you to leisurely dining served in the formal dining room, resplendent with silver service and unrushed conversation, where true Southern hospitality is served, along with English crumpets. Queen Victoria would have nodded her approval. Imagine further, a 19th Century Drawing Room in patterned carpet, rich wood wainscoting backdropping a game table with a puzzle partially put together, drawing you to pull up that cozy chair and add the next piece. Now is the "right time". The Empress of Little Rock: "the forgotten experience".

The John Edward Murray room is named for the youngest brigadeer general in the Civil War!.  Decorated in blues and grays reflective of either side your heritage admires, the large king size featherbed will relax you as the cozy portieres snuggle you in the remembered feelings of Grandma's special place for you.  Fireplace is surrounded by the warmth of a walnut settee and matching chair.  The majestic picture of Lee over the mantle engenders the awe of a serious time that brought triumph and tears.  This room inspires contemplation; just what any gentlewoman and man would do with a much coveted moment and a glass of liquer!Secret Garden Hammock and Hot Tub and Gazeebo used for weddings.
