Well appointed, clean hotel. Built 5 years ago. Great location and they have bikes available which was extremely nice to use. The living room area of the hotel is cozy and the food and staff are great. Chocolate chip cookies left on your bed every night! In my opinion, the nicest place to stay in Newport because the old Inns, the marriott and Gurneys are all musky.

Beautiful rooftop views. Easily accessible to water activities i.e ferry rides,harbor tours etc… Tons of dining options that are walkable. Only minor inconvenience was dogs barking. I realize it’s a pet friendly stay however, I felt like I was in a dog kennel . Room was switched without an issue. Staff was attentive and accommodating. All in all a great stay!

My husband and I spent another wonderful weekend at the Brenton. The room was immaculate and the bathroom was spacious. The people who work at the Brenton are professional and very welcoming. Maurice, the mixologist in the Living Room, is amazing with his various concoctions. I would definitely recommend the Brenton to any Newport traveler. It is my 4th time to the Brenton in the past 2 years. It is well worth the money. It is now the only place my husband and I stay when we are visiting Newport!

Really nice, spacious room, loved all the juices and sodas, sparkling & still water and ice cream. Chocolate chip cookies on our pillow every night, turn down service. GREAT location.

Beautifully decorated and appointed. The bathrooms lack a little bit of privacy with the glass doors but it wasn’t too much of an inconvenience. The location is perfect with lots of shops and restaurants in walking distance. I would highly recommend this hotel to others.

By far, my favorite sweet boutique hotel in the country. I travel extensively- for work and pleasure- and my family and I love coming to the Brenton. The staff is friendly but not annoying, helpful and happy. The hotel itself is spotless and the accommodations are top notch. Easy valet parking, reasonably priced room service, free in room diet Coke (reason enough for me to stay!) and great locale.

Beautiful hotel located in walking distance to most shops/restaurants. Staff was very kind and friendly. Enjoyed the pantry perk of fresh water and icecream whenever you wanted. Our favorite part was the rooftop deck. Bar was not opened but enjoyed sitting up there overlooking the water. Beds were unusually low to the ground but overall room was great and bathroom design was beautiful. Enjoyed the nespresso maker in the room. We were not allowed to check in till exactly check in time which was a little inconvenient but i understand they were busy the night before. Also shouldn't make you pay for parking since already spending enough to stay at the hotel.

The hotel seems new. It was nicely decorated, clean, and comfortable. The valet app didn't work and I never got a text or got a ticket for my parked car. I was not informed by the valet, nor by the reception that there is a house car that can take you places until I checked out and saw another guest requesting it. I couldnt find the phone in the room to contact reception. I had to call them via my cell. Check-out time is at 11am and when I asked to push to 11:30am, they couldn't even be flexible about it. I knew that the hotel wasn't fully booked for that day since I had looked into staying another day. Just because of their inflexibility, I am not sure if I would stay here again. Side note: the shampoo they provided was very watered down, I had to reapply 4 times.

I loved the thoughtful touches like complimentary non-alcoholic drinks in the room, sparkling water and ice cream in the pantry, and fresh cookies offered every night. The room was cleaned daily, which I really appreciated, and the parking staff were always helpful and attentive. The hotel itself is very aesthetic, modern, and calm—an ideal retreat in Newport. From check-in to check-out, everything felt seamless and welcoming. I would absolutely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone visiting Newport.

My whole family loves this hotel! It is beautiful and clean and in a perfect location. Very walkable to the harbor in Newport. The food is delicious and fresh, the bar is great, and even the mini bar in the rooms is a cut above. They have little stations on all of the floors (except the 2nd) where you can get cold water, sparkling water, ice, ice cream. Just another lovely touch at this hotel. We have stayed here several times, and have loved it each time. The rooms with a harbor view are a bit smaller than rooms with a city view. Personally, I prefer teh city view rooms, as they are roomier.

Convenient amenities except for one. No free breakfast or coffee There is an espresso machine in the room which we used but DAIRY FREE COFFEE CREAMER. They could at least provide half and half or coffee in the lounge. Espresso is not drunk in the morning it’s latte or cappuccino on the continent. I would expect a better hotel like the Brenton to know international norms.

I wanted to love but the dining menu is not mainstream. No coffee service ended up at Starbucks at Marriott next door. The roof top obscured view of sunset. But the biggest flaw was the attempt to be so modern in design functionality lost. Especially the bathroom is echo chamber all clear glass surround bathroom door and wall only 1/2 way obscured. Hard to imagine ppl sharing room. Sink bowl that wasnt pitch to drain. Air only went to 67 overnight. Felt like no one else in hotel.
