Very well kept hotel in a great location on the water.
Bathroom was updated and spacious with all the amenities.
Only minus was that the guests staying above us woke up early and paced the floor from 5am on.
Might want to book a room on the third floor to avoid that happening.

This was one of the best hotels I have stayed at! The staff was wonderful and welcoming. The room was well laid out with plenty of space for four people. We enjoyed the separate sitting area and balcony.

The Amazing Harborside Inn!
Our stay could not have been better. The staff was super friendly and efficient from the moment we arrived until we checked out. From home made cookies and tea/coffee available from early afternoon onwards to the continental breakfast, the service was amazing. Would definitely recommend this hotel and intend to use it whenever we visit Newport!
