Top Charlestown Hotel Reviews

The Newport Harbor Hotel & Marina

10/10 Excellent

"Second time staying at this beautiful hotel. Clean and an amazing location with wonderful views available. Will be back. This is the first time bringing a vehicle along — The lot that the hotel shares is also a public lot and is pricey. Not the hotels fault and they do disclose that parking has a fee. I parked the vehicle for my overnight and it was $90+. This was clearly labeled at the front of the lot. Staff, location, amenities, and view all get five stars from me."

Howard Johnson by Wyndham Middletown Newport Area

10/10 Excellent

"The staff were incredibly helpful and interested in making our stay great. Right off the hop they called to see if we were happy with the room and if we needed anything and again on checkout, incredibly pleasant. When you go into the room, all the drawers were open, indicating that they had been cleaned. Great pride taken by the team at this hotel"
