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.

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.

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.

The Eliza room had very nice sheets. The bed was a little squishy for our taste so we didn't sleep the best. The head board made a lot of noise too. The bathroom is small so there's not much room around the sink to get ready. The room was nicely decorated as well as the rest of the home.
