The One Arkansas Art Museum You Can Spend The Night In

Did you ever want to have your own night in a museum? We just found our new favorite unique lodging in Arkansas where you can actually fulfill that desire. The 21c Museum Hotels were founded in 2006 with only seven locations in the U.S. Lucky for us, one of the locations is right here in Bentonville. Let's take a tour of this innovative lodging experience.

Welcome to the 21c Museum Hotel in Bentonville.

Let's look at some of the artistic offerings you can expect to see.

The art ranges from beautifully intricate...

Chris Doyle's Unfolded can be viewed on the fourth floor elevator lobby.

...to bizarrely comical.

This one residing in the gym is the Fat Bat by Barré.

The rooms are contemporary luxurious.

Besides amenities like HDTV and free wifi, there's also original artwork hanging in each room.

They have the "Art Yard" for your outdoor events.

The Orange Tree by Alexandre Arrechea is one of the site-specific installations.

The sleek and modern Main Gallery will suit all your business meeting plans...

...or cocktail hour needs.

Gallery Two is perfect for smaller sized meetings.

21c is also home to the restaurant The Hive.

You can savor the refined county cuisine either at the table or as in-room dining.

This was just a brief tour, mind you. The 12,000 sq. ft. museum has near endless opportunities to discover art.

Rates start around $260 but we highly recommend taking advantage of their package deals. For instance, the Romance includes a $100 dinner voucher to The Hive, rose petal turndown, and other goodies.

To peruse their other package deals and book a room, go here.

The 21c Museum Hotel in Bentonville is located at 200 NE A Street.Have you had the chance to spend the night here? Share your experience with us in the comments below!
