It's like staying in a castle.

The facility is beautiful with a view of the water. The staff was friendly and everything was clean. There was no elevator but staff is willing to help with bags if you need it. I really enjoyed the facility and the area.

Hotel is adorable. Gorgeous views from back terrace. Staff are lovely. Giant air conditioning units on roof right outside our window. Like listening to an engine all night.

The hotel has unique charm and a romantic feeling. It’s a beautiful setting. We loved our stay and look forward to coming back.
virginia, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

It’s a historic hotel, so it does not feel like a new or updated hotel, which is not a bad thing! Very clean and has a beautiful view. Bed was comfortable. There is only 21 rooms or so, so it is very quiet but the walls are thin - easy to hear people in the hallway. The restaurant was closed while we were there (which is odd since we were there on season). About a 10 - 15 minute drive to downtown Newport.
