Stayed one night in February. On the plus side - the location is great! Within walking distance of the water and great restaurants. Front desk staff were extremely helpful on suggestions for restaurants. Parking is a problem as the hotel charges $15 whether you valet or self park in their lot. We did find plenty of spots available on the... More

It is always such a disappointment to all of us at the Hotel Viking when our guests are not happy with their stay. We do agree that we have a great location and our Front Desk Associates are at the top of their game. We are extremely dismayed, however, to read about your dissatisfaction with our charges. Although these charges... More

We have stayed at the Viking several times in the past for post-holiday recharge getaways but we haven’t been in a couple years. When we arrived this trip we were very happy to see that all that was good and wonderful about this hotel has stayed the same; the friendliness, the excellent food, remarkable spa services, and the luxury feel...

We took advantage of their winter special and stayed overnight at the Viking during a beautiful January weekend. We were immediately welcomed by the valets and the front desk staff. The hotel is beautifully decorated and classy. Our room, although small, was extremely well-decorated and there was definitely enough room to move around. The comfy king-sized bed was luxurious. The... More

A friend and I went for a "girls getaway". The hotel has a spa.pool.restaurant.valet parking and is a short walk to shopping and restaurants. The staff was very attentive from the moment we pulled up to the door. We were not there long enough to use the spa and do everything else we wanted to do. The hotel is old... More

Thank you for your comments regarding your visit. We are sorry you did not enjoy our bar in One Bellevue. We realize that each and every guest has their personal preferences and in this case we fell short of your expectations. At least you were able to enjoy the pool and the room. More

I booked a last minute stay at Hotel Viking for an overnight while visiting my son at college. Since it was off season in Newport rooms were available at great rates.
