We had an excellent stay in the Lark suite and the host Peter was super helpful! The room was incredibly clean, the hotel is in a great location and the daily breakfast with pastries, frittatas, and smoothies was such a nice treat! Will definitely be back.

Beautiful and friendly
The Attwater is a beautiful boutique B&B in downtown Newport. Check in was easy and friendly. We got upgraded to the king suite which had 2 large rooms and a decent sized bathroom. Everything is clean and bright colors. A teapot and coffee are out all day which is a nice touch. Breakfast was a wonderful array of tapas style offerings. I would stay here again!

We had a great stay at the Attwater. Peter in reception was so helpful and friendly. The area is very walkable, right off of Bellevue and just a half mile to Thames Street. Plenty of restaurants and just a short drive to the Cliff Walk and the Newport mansions.
