The Empress of Little Rock Small Luxury Hotel & Be

Hemingway Spa Suite
Named for Ernest Hemingway - slightly wild and daring. It's 1940. The vaulted ceiling, the rough hewn beams, the lighted gothic window, the masculine feel of wood and bamboo; with just the slightest touch of jungle. The imprint of the man and his times captures the imagination and draws you into a simpler quieter time. King feather bed, fireplace, and separate sitting area with over stuffed couch and chair / lounger. Bath spa includes double Jacuzzi, steam shower, aromatherapy, footbath and hydro massage tower. Browns, reds and moss green capture touches of the 40's; also a garden balcony. A romantic escape to contemplate the next chapter in your life. Special spa amenities!

Majestic Spa Suite
Lovingly totally restored in 2005, all suites offer fireplaces, jacuzzi's, phones, aromatherapy steam showers, cable TV, CD and tape players, separate sitting areas, luxury robes, state of the art spa amenities, king or queen feather beds and come with a two course gourmet breakfast by candlelight. Two also offer multiple jet massage showers and footbaths. Of course, all provide our usual Four Diamond Quality, décor, and Service!!!

Victoria's Garden Suite
This light and airy room reflects the hope and potential of the first Caucasian female resident of Little Rock, and mother of the first white child, Chester. A full size four poster bedstead graces this cozy room with Victorian love seat and chair sitting area. Light rose and violet create a warm and delicate feeling hard to achieve without 14' ceilings and dark oak antiques. Pedestal sink with shower in Pullman bath surrounded by a collection of seashells from a Victorian summer by the sea

Hornibrook Master Suite
(Featured on the cover of Victorian Decorating & Lifestyle Magazine). The romantic sitting area includes a fireplace with hand painted tile, and a verse from Milton's "L'Allegro", done by Mary Leicester Wagner for her brother. Nestle in a rare soaking tub from the original bath. Marble sink basin and "water closet" commode finish a room "bathed" in the soft glow of camellia pink and green

Ladies Parlor At The Empress
The butler escorts you from the sitting parlor to the elegant ladies parlor where you will be greated by the awaiting hosts. One step takes you to the virtual world of 1888.
