Rooms in the River View
Hotel are simple and evocative of earlier times. Room 6, at right,
retains the original 1920's hotel furnishings including a bureau and a wash
stand. The hotel has been modified over the years, and all rooms now include
a private bath. |

We’re not the least expensive place in
town. On the other hand, we do offer
100% cotton sheets and linens that we dry outside on the clothes line. No synthetic fabrics. Natural citrus cleaners without harsh
chemicals. No employees, so Linda and I
do all the cleaning, making beds, yard work, landscaping, etc. This is the only hotel in Calico Rock and the
only lodging in Calico Rock on the National Register of Historic places. We care about this old hotel and are
scrupulous in our work to keep it immaculate, without introducing fancy. Guests have told us that in all their
travels, this is their favorite place to stay.
All
Rates given below are for two people and include our local 10.5% tax and a

or fewer rooms.

*Breakfast: For
breakfast, we begin with coffee, tea and orange juice in the hotel’s
lobby. Folks gather here about 8 to discuss the day’s plans, meet other guests,
or hear a bit about the history of the hotel or local attractions from Linda
and Mark. Most often this is followed by
a light breakfast with an assortment of cereals, fresh fruit, organic jams and
jellies, and bread for toast, but occasionally we get more adventurous.
Heating and
Cooling: When the weather gets
warm, we install window air conditioners in each room. When the weather
gets cold, electric heaters in each room supplement the centrally-located heater
downstairs.
Extra
guests: Extra people
are $10 per person per night. Please ask us about rates for children.
Credit Cards: While we accept credit cards (MC, Visa) to
