Admiralty Inn & Suites - a Red Collection Hotel

8/10 Good

"For our short stay, we had no issues."

The Newport Harbor Hotel & Marina

8/10 Good

"Our family was there during July 4th. Hotel was fully booked but staff were nice and we had a smooth check in. Location is amazing, close to the action at the warf. You could watch the fireworks from the yard luckily. They say the pool was heated but was chilly to my standards. Hotel was clean but you could tell the property was dated. The HVAC was pretty noisy when it would come on at night. Overall good value for money."

Atlantic Beach Hotel Newport

8/10 Good

"It is definitely old. Pretty clean, but needs some love. Our room had a window into the hallway and that wasnt great. Between that and the gap under the door, a lot of hallway noise and lights disturbed our sleep. You can also hear full conversations of the people in the bathroom above you. I did love the location. Public beach access right across the street and an easy drive to food and shopping."

Falmouth Tides

10/10 Excellent

"I couldn’t have loved this property more! My only regret was that we couldn’t stay longer. The location is PERFECT. The accommodations are stylish, clean and comfortable. The beach chairs, towels, umbrellas are all provided as part of your stay making a beach day easy and special. And the little coffee/ice cream truck is adorable! And served up a great cold brew and chocolate croissant. I had to buy a hat and tshirt as Momentos of a great and special getaway."
