Newport Hotel Guide - Adventure Sport Hotels in Newport, Rhode Island

"The hotel and the setting on Goat Island were beautiful. Really enjoyed the stay! The only suggestion for improvement (and it's an easy one) add a mirror or two in the main bedroom. Only mirror was in the bathroom. A full length mirror would be a nice touch."

"As one previous quest wrote, "We could live there." What a wonderful experience! The townhouse setting was perfect, with a fantastic water view from the secluded deck. The delivered continental breakfast was so delicious and more than we expected. A definite winner!! "

"Very nice, one of the nicest hotels I've stayed in. Our room had a few quirky issues, but nothing to complain about. There was also a lot more unexpected costs and fees at the hotel beyond what was spent on Expedia. All in all, great stay. "

"For our 25th anniversary we chose Newport, RI for a getaway. As first time visitors, we researched options and chose the Vanderbilt because it seemed central in location and the fact there were onsite spa services and good bar. This first choice was fortunate because we then met Morgan, the lead concierge. I booked the hotel and then immediately emailed re:spa services. Morgan called within 5 minutes of my email to book our appts and then proactively offered other services, ideas, and resources. She worked with me over email and phone, booking restaurants, an onsite cocktail class with Zach (who is truly amazing as a teachers and cocktail scientist/artist) and getaway spa treatments with Randi (who really knows her stuff and cares) and team. The stay was great! From check in where we were treated with our itinerary packet and resources to surprise amenities celebrating our anniversary through to check out, it was above expectations. Every staff member was truly friendly and the style of this historical mansion hotel was striking and welcoming. Location was perfect - we walked everywhere and didn’t need our car really. Highly recommend! When we visit Newport on the future we will stay here again and will check out other Augerge collection properties in other locations in the future. I wish I encountered service and hospitality like this every time. Thank you Vanderbilt crew!"

"Very convenient location - walk to shops & restaurants. Had a nice room with a view of the harbor. Sunset was beautiful! "

"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."

"Great location. In the center of it all. Clean rooms. Nice stores and coffee shops on the ground floor. "

"This was one of the top 5 hotels that I have ever stayed in worldwide"
