The Empress is beautiful & well maintained. This is the 2nd time I've stayed here. Unfortunately we were told this time that breakfast was not included in our stay. If we wanted it. We would be charged $20 each. Our expedia information plainly stated Bed & Breakfast & no upcharge mentioned. After paying $251.50 atleast a bowl of cereal would have been nice.

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!! ❤️

This property is a very nice old mansion and just visiting is like being in a museum. Everything is 100 years old at least and the decoration of the house is magnificent. You have different options to stay, either in the main house or the carriage house. We were in the carriage house and it was really quiet and comfortable. Breakfast was the cherry on top. We will certainly go back
