Mid century modern interiors are well done, very friendly and helpful staff and excellent meals for dinner and breakfast in the restaurant. Not in a walkable area but that didn’t detract from our stay since it’s only a few minutes to the Newport mansions if they’re in your plans

Our stay at The Wayfinder was excellent. Staff were incredibly nice and so helpful. It was a great location and a very quick ride to downtown. We are incredibly thankful for a pet friendly hotel so our fur baby can come on vacation with us. The hotel and rooms were very clean with very unique and memorable style. I would absolutely recommend this hotel to anyone traveling to Newport.

This was our first time going to the Jazz Festival. We stopped at Wayfinder and had great customer service and wonderful food. Special thanks to Devon, Lisa, and Jimar at the front desk. The best part was the meals had at the Little Clam restaurant- nice burgers, smoked chicken, roasted fish and don’t leave without the English toffee pudding. Chefs Antonio and Matt R. are passionate about their craft and the manager Ryan and Eabha were wonderful. Wayfinder we hope to find our way back next year!
