Rooms
Standard rooms are straightforward but functional, featuring minifridges, microwaves, tea and coffeemakers, flat-screen TVs, iPod docks, and Wi-Fi (fee-based). Studio rooms step up with sofabeds and full kitchenettes, including a kitchen sink noted by guests, while one-bedroom suites add a separate living room for extra space. This range of room types suits both quick overnight stays and longer visits needing in-room cooking facilities.
Dining & Amenities
Complimentary breakfast is a highlight, with guests praising a grab-and-go option as well as a made-to-order hash-and-eggs station and coffee bar. The hotel also offers an outdoor pool, a 24-hour fitness center with well-regarded equipment, complimentary bike rentals, coin-operated laundry, and free parking. A free EV charging station is also available on site.
Location & Surroundings
The hotel sits about a 9-minute walk from the Razorback Regional Greenway trail and roughly 5 miles from the Crystal Bridges Museum of American Art, with several other Bentonville attractions -- including The Walmart Museum, Scott Family Amazeum, Museum of Native American History, and Osage Park -- within a few miles. Outdoor enthusiasts also have easy reach to Slaughter Pen Trail, Crystal Bridges Trails, and Coler Mountain Bike Preserve, making the property a practical base for cycling and museum-hopping alike.
Best for
This hotel suits leisure travelers drawn to Bentonville's museum and mountain-biking scene, thanks to its proximity to Crystal Bridges Museum of American Art, the Razorback Regional Greenway, Slaughter Pen Trail, and Coler Mountain Bike Preserve, plus complimentary bike rentals. It also works well for longer-stay guests and families needing kitchenette-equipped studios or suites, and for business travelers wanting a straightforward, well-run property near I-49 with free parking and EV charging.
Travel tips
Having a car or bike is useful, as many attractions like Crystal Bridges Museum, The Walmart Museum, and the Scott Family Amazeum are a few miles away rather than walkable, though the Razorback Regional Greenway trailhead is just a short walk from the hotel. Take advantage of the complimentary bike rentals to reach nearby trailheads, and arrive early for the made-to-order breakfast station if you want a hot meal rather than the grab-and-go option. Since Wi-Fi carries a fee, business travelers should factor that into planning.
