Peabody Hotel Gets Four Stars

By , About.com GuideNovember 9, 2009

Follow me on:

The Peabody Hotel at Little Rock is the first hotel in Arkansas to be awarded four stars in the prestigious Forbes Travel Guide. It is among only 147 four-star hotels in the nation listed in the Forbes Travel Guide.

Most of us in Little Rock probably only know the Peabody for its ducks. It is located in the former Excelsior Hotel in downtown Little Rock (next to the Old Statehouse) on 3 Statehouse Plaza. Locals know it for the famous daily duck marches, but travelers know it for the first class accommodations and dining offered there.

General manager Gregg Herning said the four-star designation was important not only to the hotel but to the state. The executive director of the Arkansas Hospitality Association agreed, saying the listing proves that Arkansas can compete on a national and international level.
