A very quaint, unique property centrally located. We stayed in the urban beach house which was very nice with the exception of the noise level from the other rooms which cannot be mitigated in an older building.

Loved the Attwater

We really enjoyed our stay at the Attwater. The hotel is in a quiet, more residential part of Newport. We arrived the day after Labor Day and were upgraded to a suite on the third floor - it was like having our own apartment. All of the staff were very helpful - Brandy knows Newport well and gave us a lot of helpful info. At her suggestion we went over to Third Beach in Middletown and nearby Sachuest Point Wildlife Refuge, a gorgeous spot to walk and see goldfinches. We will return!

Good Base for Exploring Newport

Nice small hotel in excellent location. Minimal interaction with staff, so nothing to report there. Could use more places to sit within the gereously-sized room we were in.

This is the second time we have stayed at The Attwater. The service, cleanliness and location are excellent. Some of the carpets in the common areas need replacing. Our bathroom cabinet was pretty dinged up. Everything else was great! I would definitely stay there again

The Attwater was a beautiful hotel, in the heart of Newport, but on a quiet sidestreet that made it easy to relax. The staff was wonderful and very helpful when answering my many questions. I highly recommend it and hope to stay there again in the future!

We booked a two bedroom room so we would be able to sleep. air conditioning was broken in one room. We didn’t even receive a fan until the second night and it was all moldy. We couldn’t sleep with open windows because of the noise so we ended up sharing one room. The management could only see fit to refund 10% Even though we could only use one room. Very disappointed. And they wouldn’t even communicate with me. Totally ghosted me stay somewhere else.

This hotel is not what we expected. The rooms are TINY so much so that we had no space to even open our suitcases without bumping into the door. The whole room needed a fresh coat of paint and the knob in the shower fell off every time you tried to turn it. Our room was on the ground floor and everyone walking by could see right in unless we kept the curtains shut at all times (which made it very dark). Breakfast was underwhelming. Definitely wouldn’t stay again. Especially for the price point. I will say, however, that it was very clean and the bed was comfortable.
