One Of Bentonville's Best Kept Secrets

Step into The Block Hotel's Boutique King Suite — a fully reimagined room that swaps the standard motel layout for something that actually feels like a stay. This is one of the few rooms in Bentonville with a true king bed paired with a real suite layout, and you're getting both for less than what most hotels in town charge for a standard room alone.

Every inch of this space has been redesigned from the studs out: luxury vinyl plank flooring throughout (zero carpet, anywhere), a tufted leather headboard, a leather sofa seating area, and curated art and lighting that make it feel more like a design hotel than a roadside stop. The room is genuinely spacious — enough to spread out for a long stay, set up a workspace, or just have a real sitting area instead of the foot of the bed.

We've also leapfrogged the rest of the market on tech. Skip the front-desk key fumbling and outdated keycards — this room uses a modern smart lock. The WiFi is fast enough to actually work from, which makes this suite a smart pick for business travelers in town for Walmart, J.B. Hunt, Tyson, or any of the other NWA corporate campuses nearby.

Outside the room, the boutique experience continues. Our lobby is built around a giant Scrabble-tile wall spelling out "THE BLOCK HOTEL" in wood tile, surrounded by greenery — a genuinely great space to grab a coffee or just hang out, not just a hallway to the elevator. Bentonville is one of the best mountain biking towns in the country, and we built this property around that: secure in-room bike storage so you don't have to leave your bike outside or break it down, with the OZ Trails system and Coler Mountain Bike Preserve just minutes away.
Traveling with a dog? We have one of the only large, fully fenced on-site dog parks in the area — a real off-leash space, not just a "pets allowed" policy on paper.

Location-wise, you're set up well: a Starbucks is steps from the front door, we run an onsite food truck for easy grab-and-go meals, and you're minutes from Crystal Bridges Museum of American Art, downtown Bentonville's square, and the Walmart Home Office. Parking is plentiful here, which isn't something every property in this part of town can say.

Stay fueled and stay moving: free continental breakfast every morning, and a 24-hour gym for early risers or late finishers.

This isn't a cookie-cutter chain room. It's an independent, boutique stay with the bones of a much pricier hotel — at a king suite rate that's hard to find anywhere else in Bentonville.
