Tucked within the beautifully restored Carriage House at The Empress of Little Rock, The Garden Spa Suite offers a warm, romantic retreat inspired by the charm of an Irish seaside cottage. Overlooking a Romantic Heirloom Moonlight Garden, this suite is designed for rest, renewal, and quiet connection with nature, while maintaining the elevated comfort expected of Arkansas’ only Michelin-Key hotel and a AAA Four-Diamond property.

Set just steps from the main house yet distinctly its own, the Carriage House provides a more private, relaxed atmosphere. The Garden Spa Suite is ideal for couples, longer stays, and guests seeking a tranquil escape with direct access to the gardens. This suite is also pet friendly for a fee, making it a rare option for guests traveling with a companion.

The Suite

The Garden Spa Suite is a light-filled king suite that blends simplicity, warmth, and spa-level comfort. At its center is a king-sized featherbed, inviting guests to slow down and settle in. Soft textures, natural light, and a gentle color palette create a calm, welcoming environment that feels both cozy and refined.

A separate sitting area features two matching, comfortable chairs arranged near the fireplace, offering an inviting place to read, talk, or simply enjoy the quiet. French doors open onto a private balcony overlooking the Moonlight Garden, where the scent of heirloom blooms drifts in and the soft sound of a quartz fountain adds to the sense of peace.

Morning light fills the suite, highlighting the spa bath and garden views, while evenings feel intimate and restful. The suite’s layout encourages unhurried moments, whether soaking, resting, or enjoying the view from the balcony.

The bathroom is designed for relaxation, featuring a Jacuzzi soaking tub and a walk-in tiled shower, allowing guests to choose between indulgence and ease. A spa-style atmosphere carries throughout, making the bath experience a defining feature of the suite.

The Garden Spa Suite offers a balance of privacy, comfort, and connection to the outdoors. With its garden-facing balcony, fireplace, and serene setting, it feels like a quiet cottage retreat within the grounds of one of Little Rock’s most celebrated historic hotels.
