We totally enjoyed our stay. Peter was very helpful with suggestions of local eateries and things to do around town. There were fresh baked chocolate chip cookies in the lobby, with access to coffee and a good selection of tea. Our room was on the second floor. They upgraded us, which was a nice surprise. Accommodations and linens were very clean. The breakfast was fresh and delicious, we will definitely return!

A very quaint, unique property centrally located. We stayed in the urban beach house which was very nice with the exception of the noise level from the other rooms which cannot be mitigated in an older building.

The Attwater was a beautiful hotel, in the heart of Newport, but on a quiet sidestreet that made it easy to relax. The staff was wonderful and very helpful when answering my many questions. I highly recommend it and hope to stay there again in the future!
