Where You'll Actually Stay

The Boutique King Suite.

King bed, a full lounge area with couch and coffee table, a wood slat feature wall, cognac leather headboard, and a refreshed bath — the best room we offer. Independent and boutique, not a chain template.

A Smart Stop On The Road To The World Cup

World-Class Art, Trails & Dining. No Tournament Pricing.

While Kansas City, Dallas, and Houston host World Cup matches this summer, Bentonville makes a genuinely good stopover between host cities — about 3 hours from Kansas City, 6 from Dallas, 9.5 from Houston. Free world-class art, 70+ miles of trails right from downtown, and a James Beard-recognized food scene, without big-city tournament rates.

Between The Matches

A Real Break, Not Just A Bed.

Crystal Bridges Museum of American Art — free admission, just expanded by 50% — sits a mile from downtown. The Momentary, the Walmart Museum, and the Museum of Native American History round out a genuinely good art-and-culture stop, not just a place to sleep between drives.

Bentonville is also known as the Mountain Biking Capital of the World, with 70+ miles of singletrack connecting straight from downtown — bring the bike if you've got room for it.

Worth The Detour

A Genuinely Good Food Stop.

Downtown Bentonville's Square is packed with chef-driven restaurants, including spots recognized by the James Beard Foundation — a real meal, not a highway rest stop, on your way between matches.
