"Fantastic"
A verified traveller stayed at Newport Marriott Hotel & Spa
"We loved it!! The staff was so nice to us and to our dog!! Beautiful historic atmosphere. I was a little surprised there was no fridge, so just check on that if you’ll need one, but we got by fine putting things on ice! Great room service too. Delicious food!! "
"The rooms are clean and new. Very spacious. The property was clean and the staff was friendly. It’s not too far from the touristy areas but far enough that you won’t be disturbed by crowds. It was an excellent stay and really reasonably priced. I would absolutely recommend! "

"The property was exceptionally clean and well maintained. It was walking distance to the Rhode Race, which was great!
Also, the restaurants all around that were in walking distance were wonderful, as well.
