Fabulous hotel all around. The decor, ambiance, service, location and food are all wonderful! We definitely plan on staying here again. If I were being nitpicky, I would say that they need to add fans to the bathrooms, because you can hear everything in the bathroom from the hotel room ( unless there was a fan and I just didn't see the switch for it, but I don't think so). But honestly, it's just a fabulous place to stay, I highly recommend it!

Really nice, spacious room, loved all the juices and sodas, sparkling & still water and ice cream. Chocolate chip cookies on our pillow every night, turn down service. GREAT location. We didn’t have to take the car out once! Used the complementary bikes too. Very helpful staff. The restaurant was average but plenty of good places to eat within walking distance.

Outstanding

It was just wonderful! We didn’t have a scenic view. Staff was so attentive. The cleanliness was outstanding. The location was right at the wharf so walkable, loved the hand held shower. Convenient amenities except for one. No free breakfast or coffee There is an espresso machine in the room which we used but DAIRY FREE COFFEE CREAMER. They could at least provide half and half or coffee in the lounge. Espresso is not drunk in the morning it’s latte or cappuccino on the continent. I would expect a better hotel like the Brenton to know international norms.

Wonderful place to stay

Well appointed, clean hotel. Built 5 years ago. Great location and they have bikes available which was extremely nice to use. The living room area of the hotel is cozy and the food and staff are great. Chocolate chip cookies left on your bed every night! In my opinion, the nicest place to stay in Newport because the old Inns, the marriott and Gurneys are all musky.
