We absolutely loved our stay at the Newport Channel Inn! The rooms were spacious, comfortable, and perfect for relaxing after a beach day. The location couldn’t be better—just a short walk to the beach and surrounded by great coffee spots and restaurants. Parking was super easy with the convenient onsite lot. We especially appreciated the beach towels and chairs the hotel provides—such a thoughtful touch that made our beach days even better. Highly recommend, and we’ll definitely be staying again!

Great Experience I would return

Place was an older building but the rooms were updated and great layout to your car. The service was fantastic and the roof top sitting area was cool after hours! Restaurant next door was good too.

I have mixed feeling about our stay here. While it was super convenient to be in short walking distance to the beach and a tiny playground/park behind the hotel that was perfect for my kids, the room itself was a huge disappointment. The bedding was stained and the floors were absolutely filthy as was the bathroom. Very disappointing for what we ended up paying per night.

We love this property, it is the 3rd time that we have stayed there. The first was rather random of right place and right rate, but since then it's been due to the property. It is clean and well maintained and so cute! They have beach cruisers, boogie boards, beach chairs, and real beach towels to use at the beach. We FINALLY were able to use all of that on this trip. Just by random chance it was the same room as last visit in 2024. We WILL be back! (Only bummer is the local restaurant Spaghetti Bender closed, which was a childhood favorite of my wife)

Super close to the beach! They had towels, boogie boards, and chairs to check out at the front. Also there is a neighborhood park right behind the hotel. Super convenient. There were a couple breakfast spots within walking distance.

No frills but we knew this before so that is ok. Room was clean. Very very loud (next to busy street), even at night. Fridge was hot. Room was extremely hot and took 3 hours to cool down under 80 degrees. Very uncomfortable if you stay in the summer.

Great location and nice staff at check in. Booked 5 ppl in the Family room and only had towels for 3, phone did not work to call front desk, AC barely worked, and light bulbs missing in the lamps. Mentioned these things to front desk and they really did not care. Just handed over more towels. Then had to ask for more towels the second day!
