My stay at Castle Hill Inn was truly unforgettable! The picturesque views over the Newport Harbor were breathtaking, making every moment special. The staff went above and beyond to ensure we were well taken care of. The dining experiences were top-notch with creative dishes, although it would have been nice to have even more breakfast options. The atmosphere was serene and perfect for relaxation, but the pricing was definitely on the higher side, making it more of a splurge than an everyday stay.

I recently had a lovely stay at Castle Hill Inn, which is a great place for a peaceful getaway. The room was inviting, and the breakfast was a standout with its gourmet options delivered right to our door. Outdoor spaces allowed for relaxation, especially with the beautiful sunset views. However, dining at the Lawn was a mix of hit and miss due to some understaffing and a menu that could use improvement.
