Do you want to do something special for Valentine's Day? Are you trying to plan your honeymoon or anniversary? Do you just want to do something special for that someone special in your life? Arkansas' hotels and inns offer great getaways. Peaceful, quaint, quiet and romantic are just a few of the adjectives one could use to describe all of these great locations. These 10 locations are my favorite hotel getaways mixed with some hotels that have been rated as top romantic getaway locations.
The Empress is the most luxurious hotel in Little Rock. True southern tradition is expressed in it's architecture. You will feel like Scarlett as you descend their huge double staircase. This 1880 hotel is on the National Registry of Historic Places. The Empress offers special Valentine's and Honeymoon packages. Rates from $125-195. Photos and descriptions of each room are available on their site. Call (501)374-7966 or visit their site to place reservations.
One of the best places for charming and romantic bed and breakfast inns is Eureka Springs, Arkansas. A popular location for honeymoons, elegant horse-drawn carriages carry lovers through the winding streets and alongside exquisitely preserved Victorian architecture. A Bed and Breakfast is the perfect escape!
A cabin isn't the ultimate in romance because you normally don't get room service. However, being "away from it all" can be romantic in its own right. Eureka Springs has some of the nicest cabins available for rental in the state.
Another romantic location is Hot Springs. A trip the bathhouses for a nice, relaxing thermal spa bath and massage will complete your intimate weekend. Coed massage and baths are available for an added touch of intimacy.
Built in 1880, Rosemont is listed on the National Register of Historic Places and has been completely updated to provide both historical ambiance and the conveniences of technology.
