Castle Hill Inn

Incredible first time experience at CHI. I appreciated the questionnaire before arrival and all the small notes staff made based on our arrival. It made us feel welcome immediately. Staff was warm and always conversational, always on call to answer any questions we had. We stayed in the Master Room and loved how spacious it was, particularly with its large entrance way. Drinks at the Terrace Bar were delicious and the complimentary breakfast (which could also be taken in-room) was out of this world. Daily turn down service was immaculate. The grounds were lovely to walk on the warmer days :) Thank you so much CHI for making my partners birthday weekend feel extra celebratory, romantic, and special. We cannot wait to return!

Great hotel in a great location. Staff and accommodations were fantastic. Highly recommend.

Went specifically for a getaway and dinner to celebrate Valentine’s Day /anniversary combo. Wasn’t disappointed. Great meal &service at Aurelia!

My husband and I have been to Castle Hill Inn many times for overnights, dinners, lunches on the lawn, spa treatments, and brunches both in the winter and the summer. What's not to love? The Relais & Chateau quality and service have been delivered every time at every level. This New Year's we chose Castle Hill Inn to celebrate a major passage for my husband. We knew we were in for a treat. What we DIDN'T know is that we were in for Covid as well. We had to cancel a prime time reservation at the last minute with meals, spa, friends coming over, included. Sad. Kelly and Sinn in Reservations, however, went out of their way to take care of us and make sure we have credit for a future reservation which I can't wait to redeem. They didn't need to do this so, a Must Visit Place! Thank you, Castle Hill Inn! You can relax here. They're taking care of you.

Romantic and elegant cottage!

Tea room wasn’t ready and Bar opens late 5pm

From the moment you arrive on the property, you feel pampered! We thoroughly enjoyed our 3-day stay, opting for a cottage, located on the Inn’s private beach, rather than a room in the Inn. The cottages and Inn are meticulously maintained and spotless, kudos to housekeeping and the ground crews. Our cottage had a deck with outdoor seating, the room was well appointed, the towels plush, and quality amenities. A highlight was the chocolate chip cookies delivered with evening turndown service. Our cottage could have benefited from larger storage space/ closet, otherwise we couldn’t have been more pleased. The views on the promontory, are breath-taking and the ENVY of Newport! Attracting guests, residents, and tourists. There are Adirondack chairs scattered on their vast lawn to view the ocean, boats, and beautiful sunsets. You can also enjoy drinks and/or food oceanside! There are also chairs reserved for Inn guests; in case the others are taken. While the entire staff is professional, friendly and accommodating, Jane from the reception desk and MacKenzie from the dining room stand out. A special thank you to both! We cannot rave enough about the meals, the food was so good, we cancelled our other reservations in Newport and ate all our meals at the Lawn Terrace, one of the Inn’s restaurants. The restaurant is open to the public for lunch, dinner, and drinks. Another perk of being a guest is you are always accommodated with a premier table whether in or outside. Another treat that's available exclusively for overnight guests are gourmet breakfasts and afternoon tea. Breakfast is served on the patio or inside the restaurant, your choice, and tea is served in a small cozy room in the main house. There are a variety of teas to explore, English tea sandwiches, scones, and delectable pastries. So much was offered, we delayed our dinner reservations!

Exquisite historic property, but with all the expected amenities and creature comforts. Staff was also exceptional across the board!

Beach Cottage: beautiful views. But…for almost $2000 a night it was smaller than a motel 8 room and had only one chair to sit on! Also, pictures on their website are not misleading—they are false. Shows a room with multiple chairs and a coffee table. We were told many times we could have breakfast delivered to our room—-there was no place to sit! It would be a stand up breakfast. Positive: Dinner at Aurelia was excellent and worth the high price. Summary: I travel the world regularly and for the image and price this establishment maintains, it is the only such establishment that didn’t care or bother to survey for customer feedback. Tells me they just don’t care and are full of themselves. I guess that’s good for them so long as people are willing to be overcharged and under serviced.

We stayed in a beach-side cottage and it was very luxurious. We could have bought a new motorcycle for the price, however. NOT affordable. But deeply lovely.
