It is a very nice, cozy, conveniently located hotel. The staff is very welcoming and friendly. Check-in and checkout were super easy. The breakfast that's included in the stay is wonderful, too. Fresh fruits, chia pudding, homemade omelet bake, yougurt... Thank you! Highly recommend!

Elizabeth, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

enjoyed my stay. The room was spacious and clean. The bed was comfortable. I felt like i was staying in a home, not a hotel room. Loved the variety of breakfast items, the Chia seed pudding my favorite. Coffee was excellent offered all day a bonus. Home made cookie at night was a nice way to end the day. The staff was friendly and and there whatever you need. i look forward to staying there again. This is HOME.

Ernest, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

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.
Teresa, 2-night trip

Good Base for Exploring Newport

Nice small hotel in excellent location. Minimal interaction with staff, so nothing to report there. Could use more places to sit within the gereously-sized room we were in.
Peter, 4-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

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!

This is the second time we have stayed at The Attwater. The service, cleanliness and location are excellent. Some of the carpets in the common areas need replacing. Our bathroom cabinet was pretty dinged up. Everything else was great! I would definitely stay there again
