Travel tips
Many of Little Rock's top attractions -- including the Old State House Museum, Historic Arkansas Museum, and Riverfront Park -- are within a few minutes' walk, so comfortable shoes may be more useful than a car for a day of sightseeing. The William J. Clinton Presidential Library is about a 13-minute walk away, and the hotel's complimentary shuttle covers the roughly 7-mile trip to Bill and Hillary Clinton National Airport. Valet parking and breakfast both carry an extra fee, so factor those into your budget if planning to drive or eat on-site.
