About this property
The Chatelaine Suite
The Chatelaine Suite
Step into grand Gilded Age elegance in The Chatelaine Suite, the largest and most distinguished accommodation at The Empress of Little Rock, Arkansas' only Michelin-Key hotel and a celebrated AAA Four-Diamond property. Set within an exquisitely restored 1888 Queen Anne Victorian mansion, this suite offers an immersive experience of historic luxury paired with modern refinement.
Located in Little Rock's storied Quapaw Quarter Historic District, The Empress of Little Rock places guests minutes from downtown, SoMa, and the River Market, while offering the quiet grandeur of one of the city's most architecturally significant homes. The Chatelaine Suite is ideal for couples, anniversaries, and guests seeking the most expansive and indulgent stay in the hotel.
The Suite
Occupying the north side of the second floor, The Chatelaine Suite was originally the mansion's nursery and water closet and today stands as its grandest private retreat. The suite centers around a rare antique Austrian king-size bed, crafted in solid walnut and arranged in the historically accurate late-1800s style of paired bed frames supporting a single king mattress. Rich red velvet drapery with fringe, tall windows, and period furnishings create a romantic, deeply atmospheric setting.
The suite unfolds into multiple living zones, including a private sitting room with Victorian upholstered seating, antique accents, and soft ambient lighting. A glass-front hutch displaying curated period pieces, a discreet workspace, generous storage, and a smart TV with streaming services provide both elegance and modern convenience.
Spa-Inspired Bath Experience
The Chatelaine Suite features an exceptionally large, spa-style bathroom, offering privacy and indulgence rarely found in historic hotels:
Dual-sink vanity with expansive marble surfaces and storage
Clawfoot soaking tub with air-massage jets (Champagne Massage system)
Separate tiled walk-in shower with brass and glass enclosure
Heated towel rack and luxury bath amenities
Walk-in closet with plush robes, luggage stands, ironing board, and hair dryer
A private in-suite coffee station with Keurig, mini-refrigerator, and seating area allows guests to enjoy quiet mornings and evenings without leaving their sanctuary.
Access & Notes
The Chatelaine Suite is accessed via the Grand Main Staircase, tucked discreetly behind the central stairwell beneath the attic stairs, offering a sense of privacy and discovery befitting a historic mansion.
Please note:
• Not pet-friendly
• Located on the second floor (stairs required)
