This affordable historic hotel is incredible beyond words. It feels much more like a B&B than a hotel, and the innkeepers define hospitality. It's not ritzy, but beautiful, quiet, quaint, and homey. Our family needed some time to reconnect after my husband returned from overseas, so we came here with our kids and stayed in a two-bedroom suite with kitchenette and private porch, for an amazingly low rate. Each room/suite is different, and we had fun looking into the other ones (it's too bad we had to choose one to stay in). There's a large screened porch on the second floor for guests, and we spent hours there. Our mattress was probably the best we've found anywhere. The made-from-scratch breakfasts are creative and wonderful. The innkeepers know the area well and they not only recommended a good place to hear mountain music, but even called to reserve some tickets for us. I'm sure we'll return.

Six years ago my huband and I spent our honemoon at the River View Hotel, Calico Rock, Arkansas.............The hotel and staff are wonderful. Even though the owners have changed, it's still wonderful place to stay. You feel like you are at home with the wonderful greeting, atmosphere...................and at anytime you can walk to the sunroom and see the beautiful White River and countryside. We enjoy Calico Rock so much we are up to two visits each year. If I had my way, we'd sell everything and move there. Since we can't move, we will continue making several trips a year to Calico Rock staying at the River View Hotel. Can't say enough wonderful things about the the Hotel and Calico Rock.

We found the hotel online and stayed there over labor day in 2000. The
breakfasts blow you away...very inventive! The rooms are very eclectic
and scream southern charm and kookiness! This place is just wonderful
and the owner and daughter have done a lovely job. Cheers!

Stayed at the River View on labor day weekend in 2000. Had the greatest time and the hotel is just perfect. The breakfast there will blow other B&Bs away...very creative and inventive! The charm of the hotel is in its wackiness... that is about the best way to say it. I loved the moon pies and cold sodas! We will be coming back!
