Castle Hill Inn

Top choice in Newport


Occupying a landmark Victorian mansion with 40 acres of waterfront land overlooking the mouth of Narragansett Bay, a short drive from Newport, this celebrated upscale inn has a variety of luxurious rooms and suites individually furnished in New England country-chic style. Lovelier still are the handful of secluded, semi-private beach cottages on the water's edge, great for romancin'.

The dark-wooded Turret Suite is the perfect choice for wannabe time travelers with cash to burn.
