Newport Rhode Island Hotels are known for their charm and beauty. Whether you come here to dine, spend the night, hold a meeting or get married, you'll surely have a memorable experience at this Newport treasure.
Castle Hill Inn Newport Rhode Island

Formerly the summer home of Alexander Agassiz (Harvard marine biologist and the father of modern oceanography), the Castle Hill Inn & Resort is now a resort that functions as a hotel, restaurant, meeting facility and one of Newport's best wedding locations.

Just a taste of what awaits you:

  • World-class meals
  • Spectacular views of Narragansett Bay
  • Seclusion
  • Private Beaches
  • Luxurious amenities
I know firsthand how beautiful this location is. I worked here for a few years during high school, in the 1990's.

I worked here as a bellman, where I was able to see the look of joy on guests' faces as they entered their suite overlooking Narragansett Bay.

As a bar-back, I enjoyed a front row seat to the live jazz music and beautiful sunsets on Sunday afternoons in the summer.

As a parking attendant, I passed the idle time waiting for cars to arrive on Sunday afternoons by watching the sailboats pass by the peninsula and enter into Narragansett Bay.

This is one of the most spectacular locations in all of Newport, and shouldn't be missed.

Restaurant

Of all the Newport Rhode Island Restaurants, I doubt any can compete with Castle Hill's view. The mansion has four dining rooms, offering breathtaking views of Narragansett Bay and neighboring Jamestown, Rhode Island.

Some of the amazing menu options include New England Lobster, Stuffed California Quail, Roasted Georges Bank Cod Loin and Grilled Hereford Beef Filet. Anyone else's mouth watering yet?

The Inn boasts over 500 selections on their main wine list, and has been awarded the prestigious Wine Spectator Award of Excellence each of the past five years.
