Over the years we have stayed in almost every fine hotel in Newport. We have made the Castle Hill Inn our regular habit. This hotel is in a beautiful historic mansion on the ocean inlet and a is short walk to the oceanfront state park. The staff is helpful and eager to please, reminiscent of other top tier hotels. The massive oceanside lawn has many Adirondack style chairs to enjourage outdoor rest or socializing. There are indoor and outdoor bars that accomidate every taste even non-alcoholic beer for our designated driver. We very much enjoyed the food and the the beef short rib was the best I've ever had. The included served breakfast was excellent and my pick is the poached eggs with lobster "hash" and Holindase sauce. We were here in March and activities we enjoyed are: 1) Ocean Drive and Brenton Point State Park 2) The Cliffwalk 3) The Mansion tours 4) Shopping around the Tennis Hall of Fame 5) Auto Museums - Audrain and Newport Auto Museum When we come in the summer we also enjoy the beach. This hotel is especially convenient if you have a car. Plenty of parking.

My perfect vacation

My stay at Castle Hill is always what I expect it to be - perfect. Starting with the team receiving me at arrival, to the team serving the meals to the housekeeping team, the service is excellent, friendly, considerate and accommodating. The beach cottage is beautiful and the views spectacular. The best part was being able to be on the private beach with my new puppy Vienna. So, thank you Castle Hill Inn for always taking care of us when we’re here.

We stayed in a beach-side cottage and it was very luxurious. We could have bought a new motorcycle for the price, however. NOT affordable. But deeply lovely.

Stayed for two days in August. Stayed in harbor house 4 located right by the water with a great morning wake-up view. Beautiful property with a wonderful location. Just spent the day lounging on the lawn watching the bay and the boat traffic, of course with a glass of wine. Dining options were excellent, staff from valet to housekeeping were great. Well worth it!

Property is beautiful, hotel is quiet and relaxing. Staff was exceptional at making our stay as enjoyable as possible. The front desk staff made it as easy as possible to help set up accommodations for my fiancés birthday, which we celebrated during this stay. We are already talking about our return trip back to Caste Hill Inn.
