I accidentally booked my room through Expedia, not Holiday Inn. The price wasn't much cheaper but you get the worst rooms and service this way. Staff was almost rude when I inquired how my reservation was through Expedia. Nobody greeted us coming or going walking past the front desk in thre lobby. Grounds and pool area were very unkept. 2nd floor hall way by stairs smelled like someome puked and nevwe got cleaned up. Very disapointed with my visit. We will be looking for a new hotel to stay in when we visit RI.

Pictures are deceiving
I found that the room itself was clean, but in poor condition. Wallpaper bubbled and peeling, windows dirty, and a very strange odor that was hard to deal with.

Nice stay
My husband and I booked this hotel in order to visit Narragansett. The hotel is located approximately 15 minutes from the beach and was a relatively easy drive. The hotel itself is nice. It’s an older hotel that’s been remodeled tastefully but, the ceiling in our room showed its age. The room, overall, was spacious and the bed was very comfortable. The bathroom was on the smaller side. You had to close the door in order to use the toilet. Our shower had very little warm water and the warmer (I’m being generous with warm, it was more cold than warm) it was, the less water pressure there was. I did notify the front desk and they sent someone to look at it right away. The pool was the real gem of this hotel! It was a large, outdoor pool that actually had depth, 8 ft. (most hotel pools don’t go about 5 ft,) The pool area was nicely kept with ample seating, plenty of available towels, and was nicely landscaped. Aside from the shower issue, we enjoyed our stay and would definitely consider staying again on our next trip up.

Better Than Expected!
Our one night stay was better than expected. It is an older building, but it’s been beautifully updated. The beds are super comfy with pristine linens and the all-important pillow menu. The AC was loud and couldn’t be regulated which I forgot to report (Rm 210, mgmt). Don’t worry—it was cold enough, lol! The attached restaurant, Laconda, I think, was excellent. Italian food which was delicious with possibly the freshest Caesar salad I’ve had. It was quite busy with only one server who did an amazing job, cheerfully. Holiday Inn hasn’t been a first choice for me, but I have a new perspective now.

Great place to stay in Newport area
Great place to stay for a couple of days. We were close to everything we wanted to do/see in the area - Newport, beaches, and the Block Island ferry. The pool was delightful and the entire hotel was clean, comfortable, and well maintained. The breakfast was definitely worth the upgrade. We would absolutely stay here again for a Newport trip!

Wonderful Experience
Our stay was very comfortable. Our breakfast was excellent and the dining room staff was extremely pleasant. I believe it was Jen we spoke to in the dining room. She was clearly very proud of the place she works and the people she works with. She had nothing but praise for how hard the work and that shows. We are from Maine and will definitely choose Holiday Inn South Kingstown for our next visit. Thank you for a pleasant stay!
