This was our first visit to Newport and Castle Hill Inn. We stayed in the Lighthouse Suite, which was well appointed and luxurious. In fact, it was a more luxurious room than we've had at the Plaza Hotel in NYC. As nice as the Inn is, the real standout feature is the service. The staff could not have been more helpful and friendly. Our busy touring schedule did not allow time for us to have dinner at the inn either of our two nights, but breakfast each morning was incredible and the view of the Bay from the dining room is outstanding. The chocolate chip cookies provided in your room each day are a real treat, too! December seems to be a good time to visit - less crowds, the shops and restaurants are open, and the mansions are decorated for the holidays.

“Amazing”

My husband and I had booked the the Chalet Room for a romantic weekend. Upon check in we were suprised to learn that there was an issue with our room and we were put in a Beach House. The room was wonderful, right on the water with a nice deck to hang out on. We cranked up the heat since it was a chilly April day and opened the doors to enjoy the ocean.

We have been to Newport a few times, and love the town. We had seen the big mansions. The best part of this trip was spending time at the State Park near the Castle Hill Inn and checking out the property. My husband went for a long walk along the beach, and climbed on the rocks. I was pregnant at the time so I skipped the rocks.

Breakfast is included in the price of the room. For an extra $15 they'll deliver it to your room. We ate breakfast on the deck, it was warmer the next day. The breakfast was great, we loved the lobster hash.

We stayed just for one night and we had the “cottage harbour view” I should say it was perfect …. Gas fireplace, fantastic view on Newport’s bridge, hottube etc etc, the hotel’s location is almost perfect … right on the cliff with one side on the city and the other on the open sea …

This was my second stay at Castle Hill, and I enjoyed it just as much as the first! The inn is so beautiful and the location is superb. I do think the room rates are a little steep, but afternoon tea and a hearty breakfast are included. There really isn't any place like it, so I will keep going back!

We stayed on the Castle Hill Cottages 21 and 23 from a trip from NYC to Boston. The Cottages sit right at the beach and feature a deck that nearly hits the ocean. Definatly one of the nicest sites for a hotel in the newport area. the cottages are nicely layouted and worth the money.

We were recomended to the hotel´s restaurant, which was nicely said a desaster. The portogouise chef tried to to some sort of french-us cross over and you had to go with a 69-129 USD menu. We sticked with fish, which should be grilled but was killed in all the extra sauces. The waiters were standing in their own way and the whole szene seemed like a comedy play.

We recommend to stay in the cottage ( use WiFi for free ) , go out for food in some nice lobster place in newport and just enjoy the nature and scenic setting.
