Empress Of Little Rock, Little Rock, Arkansas
Little Rock Arkansas Bed and Breakfast near Riverfest Festival
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 claw-foot tub and the soft glow of long ago lighting. Perhaps the lure of the "secret" watch tower in the turret intrigues you. Breakfast smells beckon you to leisurely dining served from the veranda or 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. Completed in 1888, after six years and a staggering $20,000, the former Hornibrook Mansion has been described in the National Register of Historic Places as one of the best examples of Gothic Queen Anne architecture. NOW is the "right time."
THE EMPRESS OF LITTLE ROCK, "the forgotten experience."
