The Chanler at Cliff Walk

Our stay at The Chanler Cliff Walk exceeded our expectations. In addition to the stunning views and location right on the cliff walk. There is a lush green lawn with seating that overlooks the bay. The weather was so beautiful and the view so enjoyable that we sat there for hours – sometimes just the two of us and sometimes talking with other guest or staff of the hotel. Very, very nice.Our room was beautiful and furnished with quality, antiques and paintings. It was meticulously maintained by the housekeeping staff. All of the staff, and I mean ALL, were top-notch from the bellmen to the chef and manager. Everyone was welcoming and friendly. The food was excellent. There are many special features and services that the CHANLER offers besides being a great hotel.

Lovely view and people

Our only complaint was that we had to leave after three days. Our stay was fabulous and I am very hard to please!

From courteous valet to front desk assisting in any reservations to anything we wanted to do, this place was truly special. We had breakfast and it was the best breakfast we could remember. Absolutely the finest place.

This hotel far exceeded our expectations. From the moment we arrived, the service was exceptional—warm, genuine, and consistent throughout our stay. We spent more time at the property than we usually do because every dining experience was so memorable. The tasting menu at Cara was extraordinary—creative, delicious, with perfect service. Breakfast at Remy’s on the patio overlooking the water was another highlight, with attentive service that made it feel special. We also enjoyed evenings in the wine garden and a wonderful dinner at the bar, where Kevin kept the atmosphere lively and welcoming, even on a busy night. As guests, we always felt valued and cared for, which is rare these days. Our room was beautifully appointed with luxurious linens and every amenity we could want, making it as comfortable as it was elegant. The mansion setting on the Cliff Walk is stunning, but what truly sets this property apart is the combination of outstanding service and exceptional food and drink. It is a rare gem—beautiful, welcoming, and unforgettable.

Great Hotel and Staff. Food was wonderful - especially at Cara. The Chanler is reasonably close for walking to Belleview Ave and the trolley as well as the Famous houses.

he food and service at breakfast, lunch and dinner were first rate. They matched the food and service at other hotels like the Bristol in Paris and the Villa d'Este on Lake Como. We would come back for the food and service whether or not the Chanler was in Newport. The warmed meusli at breakfast was the best we've ever had and the tasting menu at the Cara was one of the best we've ever had.

The dining experience was great but the room for the price could be better. Bed was terribly hard. You would just sink into the sofa uncomfortably without support. Same with the bed bench. View from the balcony was terrible as 30% of was the buildings AC units. A few little details should be better for the $6.5k we paid for 3 nights.

Our stays at The Chanler have have always been great. As repeat guests, my wife and I keep coming back for the hospitality, ocean views, and incredible atmosphere. From the moment you arrive at check in you are treated special. Every detail, from the immaculate rooms to the thoughtful amenities, are true five-star quality service. Breakfast here is our favorite and the location right on the Cliff Walk is unbeatable. Each time we stay here leaves us feeling relaxed and eager to return. The Chanler is our special place to stay when we visit Newport. We love it!

One of our most enjoyable get away trips. A great walk around town with classic, off the boat lobster rolls and clams surrounded by the history and architecture of the Gilded Age. Classic New England.
