Beautiful historic property. Lovely grounds. Comfortable, immaculate room/ bed, gorgeous common areas. We enjoyed a delicious breakfast before heading down the block to the Cliff Walk. Convenient to the cliffside mansions, an easy trip to main shopping and dining areas.

The Tower Suite is a special place. Private entrance, two floors, and a private parking space. Respectfully, my wife and I weren’t there to mingle with other guests and loved the privacy. A stones throw from cliff walk access. We covered 17 miles in 2 days on foot between the cliff walk and our strolls into downtown Newport which is roughly 3/4 mile. Our car didn’t move until we regrettably headed back to reality…

Everything was great. Quaint. Room wasn’t ready as I booked early in the morning. This would have been all 5’s, but they did not have the personnel to accommodate the room to be ready until 5PM.
