Wonderful location. Clean and spacious suite. Since the hotel is older, don't expect a spacious bathroom. It was well laid out and convenient with an excellent breakfast and very nice staff.

This is an excellent Newport classic hotel with a lot of history, right near the Wharf and shopping district. The warm pool was relaxing, the rooms were spacious and most importantly the staff were very friendly. This is a well-run hotel and look forward to visiting again in the future.

The Vanderbilt is fabulous! The building is beautiful- the sleeping rooms and the lobby and dining areas. After a day walking down Bellevue Ave, it was great to go to the indoor pool and relax. The gym was clean and had all the necessary equipment. And the staff was welcoming and helpful. It was a great stay!

My husband and I liked that the property was located in the heart of New Port. The location allowed us to walk to many of the historical sites. The Vanderbuilt Hotel and grounds are quite lovely. Thank you,

The Vanderbilt is truly the most magical and romantic place we have ever been. My husband and I went for a few days after our wedding to enjoy some relaxation. The service we received from the front desk was incredible. We wanted to change our rooms, and the team was extremely accommodating. Melissa the concierge was amazing as well. She coordinated a 1920s vintage car tour for us and a cocktail making class at the bar. She also helped us set up reservations for dinner! We are absolutely coming back and cannot wait!

Room was a nice size and very clean, bed extremely comfortable. Breakfast delicious in a very charming atrium in courtyard setting. All staff were extremely professional and helpful, especially when I closed car door on my finger when dropping it with valet. Yes, very expensive, but the location was ideal for walking into town for the boat show, it was a treat.

This hotel is a restored mansion built in 1909 for Alfred Vanderbilt's mistress. Such a funny origin for a beautiful inn! Our suite was beautiful, with 15 foot ceilings and lots of amenities. There is tea in the dining room, which was a marvelous experience. Fireplaces, beautiful furnishings, lots of places to sit and relax in the common areas. The fitness room is fine for a small hotel. The staff are exemplary, from our concierge who arranged reservations and made recommendations on things to do to our charming server at tea, to the desk staff and valet. Thank you!

For our 25th anniversary we chose Newport, RI for a getaway. As first time visitors, we researched options and chose the Vanderbilt because it seemed central in location and the fact there were onsite spa services and good bar. This first choice was fortunate because we then met Morgan, the lead concierge. I booked the hotel and then immediately emailed re:spa services. Morgan called within 5 minutes of my email to book our appts and then proactively offered other services, ideas, and resources. She worked with me over email and phone, booking restaurants, an onsite cocktail class with Zach (who is truly amazing as a teachers and cocktail scientist/artist) and getaway spa treatments with Randi (who really knows her stuff and cares) and team. The stay was great! From check in where we were treated with our itinerary packet and resources to surprise amenities celebrating our anniversary through to check out, it was above expectations. Every staff member was truly friendly and the style of this historical mansion hotel was striking and welcoming. Location was perfect - we walked everywhere and didn’t need our car really. Highly recommend! When we visit Newport on the future we will stay here again and will check out other Augerge collection properties in other locations in the future. I wish I encountered service and hospitality like this every time. Thank you Vanderbilt crew!
