I love this little hotel. It has beautiful grounds with waterfalls and a great breakfast. The rooms are clean and well maintained. The people are great too. It is a unique place to stay instead of a cookie cutter chain. I'll be back.

This is such a nice convenient place to stay in Northwest Arkansas. Larry at the front desk was awesome with many great restaurant recommendations! The staff were very nice and personable. The grounds are beautiful and this is just much better than a hotel chain.

The room was okay. It needed a deep cleaning and someone should have checked the room before we checked in. Hair in the shower, multiple dried up bugs in bathroom and room, no bottom sheet on the bed, etc. it was also directly below the door people came in and out of the building and was extremely loud anytime anyone opened the door. The free breakfast was okay. I was expecting a hot breakfast. Breakfast was Crossiants, cheese, deli meat, cereal. I would have preferred a hot breakfast with fresh fruit options. Overall it was fine. I have no desire to stay at facility again. The grounds were pretty.

My stats at The Inn are always great. One thing though that I noticed is that the water pressure in the showers has gone downhill. Not sure the issue but it seems like the shower the last two times has taken longer because of weak pressure. Just an observation. Otherwise, fantastic!!!

I'd call the breakfast premium, although it didn't have hot items like eggs sausage waffles. The hotel is unique being built into an old grain mill. The room and bed is very comfortable. Although it is using old buildings on a hillside, it is built so nearly every room is accessible without stairs. We'd stay again.

I had requested a more rustic rm, but upon arriving discovered that the more modern style rms had a lovely view of the pond. They graciously switched us. The room was exceptional and the view was lovely. The breakfast options were excellent, especially considering our vegetarian diet. This place is a delight to the senses. Beautiful property and lovely sounds of water just outside. We will be returning😁

Neat place, fun history, but wish that history was reflected in the room decor. Very disappointed in the bed. Worst mattress I have (tried to) sleep on in years. I looked up the model and it was discontinued 6 years ago, so I'm guessing the mattress is 10+ yers old. Very uncomfortable. Above all else, a hotel should provide a good night's sleep.

What a gem! The property was beautifully landscaped with outdoor, park-like seating available. The staff was exceptionally friendly and helpful. I even received a phone call after checkout to inform me of belongings I'd left behind. The room felt more like a room at a Bed and Breakfast rather than a hotel. I will definitely stay here in the future when traveling to Springdale.

We stay here whenever in the Fayetteville area. I am so glad we found it. Recently we had a 90th birthday party for my father and other family members stayed as well. The grounds are amazing, historic and beautiful. Sitting outside by the mill on the back deck is a favorite. The rooms are always clean and well maintained. In our last stay, we wanted to share a bottle of wine with family. Rather than using the in room plastic cups or sacrifice our morning coffee cups, the staff provided real glasses for us to use. It was exactly the service you would want. They are great. We will be back. Great location and close to great dining options as well.

Weather delayed my flight in by a day and they didn't hesitate to cancel my first night, even though notification was late--THAT is the customer service I wish all hotels had. Besides that, it was quiet, bed was really comfortable and I'd definitely stay there again if I'm in the area.

I usually stay here on my trips to NWA. It is very convenient to Fayetteville, and I always find myself going to Crystal Bridges in Bentonville. The interstate access is very close, but not so close that you get the traffic sounds associated with Interstate traffic. Overall, just a really nice place with extremely friendly people.
