LITTLE ROCK, Ark. (AP) - The Peabody Hotel at Little Rock says it is the first hotel in Arkansas to be awarded four stars in the prestigious Forbes Travel Guide.
The hotel said in a news release Monday that it was among only 147 four-star hotels in the nation listed in the Forbes Travel Guide, formerly the Mobil Travel Guide.
Gregg Herning, general manager, said the designation was important not only to the hotel but to the state. Montine McNulty, executive director of the Arkansas Hospitality Association, agreed. She said the listing proves that Arkansas can compete on a national and international level.
