Hotels Near Thames Glass Glassblowing Studio and Gallery in Newport

We were disappointed in our stay. When we booked, we specifically selected ”water view” and the room was advertised as having 2 ”queen” beds. Although perhaps both were technically true, we certainly felt ripped off. The view we had was actually into the atrium where you could technically see the water through a window all the way across the atrium - a couple hundred feet away. The beds may have been bigger than full but were at least 6” less than a typical 60” wide queen. Since we paid extra for the view we didn't feel it was worth the price. The room out of that context was nice, but it had no complementary bottled water or coffee and at checkout we were told that was due to Covid somehow which made no sense to us. The walls were also pretty thin and it felt like someone was flushing the toiled right next to me while I was in bed. Overall it was clean and the staff was friendly but it was not what we expected for $700/night.

Beautiful inn/Historic house walking distance to great restaurants and shopping. Very nice proprietors who accommodated my family of four and recommended great restaurants. Rooms are filled with antiques and it feels as if you are staying in a friend's guest suite. Reception area has complimentary snacks and tea/coffee and additional honor system food and drink for sale with a credit card reader.

I wish there was a rating between poor and average. I thought I'd give this hotel a try especially from their Instagram photos only to be disappointed with our very outdated and dusty room . It's not worth the overpriced rate of $360 (w AAA discount) for the off season . We stayed in a Narraganset King Water view w balcony room which was far away from the lobby in the Captains Quarters convention hall area. I even spoke to a manager as I was leaving how disappointed we were and how they need to definitely renovate their bathrooms for safety. The tub has old glass sliding doors with an extra step that can be difficult climbing out of . My husband slipped and had nothing to hold on to but the towel rack that looked like it was about to break off . We were also surprised to find over $35 in taxes (hotel and room tax plus a $25 resort fee which was not disclosed when I booked over the phone, but stated it was in the confirmation email. Maybe it feels like a resort in the summer, but not in March. fyi, they will also put a $125.00 hold on your credit card for any add;l pending charges . There is a safe in the closet and a small fridge, but hard to find hidden in one of the nightstands. The walk to down town was about 15 minutes and there's a small park before the bridge to Goat Island. Not much walking to be had on Goat Island . NO info was given for parking at the hotel in advance, and don't fall for the crazy expensive overnight valet prices $35 . There's self parking, but just not close to the lobby. The lobby looks nice and modern and we did not visit the restaurant, so we can't rate that , but this hotel needs room improvements and we will most likely not return . Do your research and read the reviews before booking . Honestly , there's so many better hotels in Newport for that rate.

The room is very historical, it is a different experience from staying in a new hotel, people who like it can try it.

Booked a last-minute beach cottage getaway and couldn’t have had a more relaxing or better escape. Beautiful waterfront cottage, breathtaking views and treated like royalty by everyone we encountered. No lunch reservations on arrival when they’re fully booked? No problem if you’re an overnight guest, as they’ll escort you to a premium table in the patio section reserved for hotel guests. Want breakfast on the deck of your cottage? It’s delivered piping hot precisely when you requested. Want to relax on their private beach? A friendly attendant sets up your covered lounge chairs, side table, umbrella and towels exactly where you want them, and brings you water and frozen grapes. Want to slip into town for a bite or shopping? Hop on the launch at their marina, and the captain will point out key sites along the way. Lunch and breakfast offerings were interesting and well-presented. If you can, make time for the included afternoon tea with freshly baked treats and tea sandwiches served in a cozy wood-panelled room off the lobby. Thoughtful amenities in the cottage included a dimmable light, umbrellas, heated bathroom floor, a deep soaking tub, a charging station, a small refrigerator stocked with free water (plus a split of champagne, wine, etc. for purchase), etc., and there’s turndown service with chocolates. Storage for clothing was rather limited if you’re planning an extended stay, but no problem for us. We come to Newport often so spent virtually all our time at Castle Hill. Loved every minute and will return.

The lobby is bright and the breakfast is very rich. In fact, breakfast is not included in the price. The room has a balcony and parking is very convenient. There is a supermarket around the hotel with an ATM and a Qing Tao Chinese food. Love Place, Politely and good service with satffs here, I will back to stay next time.

Perfect location between Block Island and Newport Mansions! We stayed two nights. We went to Block Island one day (ferry was 10 min away) and the Newport mansions the next day (20-30 min away) and then headed up to Boston after that. It s also less than 10 min from Wakefield Historic District, which has a nice Main Street with shops and restaurants. We are at The Mews - a huge restaurant with a big menu incl kids menu options, 3 bars, and over 60 beers on tap. The beds were comfy, the room was clean and spacious, and the staff was helpful. The breakfast was AMAZING! It was the best Fairfield breakfast we’ve ever had…..waffles,muffins, bagels, fresh fruit, eggs and breakfast sandwiches one day, quiche and croissant sandwiches the next, breakfast meat, yogurt, juice, oatmeal and toppings, cereals. There is a nice indoor pool And a gym with weights and cardio equipment included ng Peleton bikes. Plus, the price was really reasonable compared to other area hotels!
