Inspired by the insatiable wanderlust and rebellious spirit of Alfred Gwynne Vanderbilt, the historic downtown mansion once owned by the businessman and scion has been reinterpreted for the modern era as a lively and stylish social destination. From a secret bar tucked into a corner of the sumptuous Doris Duke-inspired parlor to the specially-commissioned series of mysterious and moody old world still lifes sprinkled throughout the foyer and lounge, the scene at The Vanderbilt is crackling with coastal curiosities and alluring eccentricities waiting to be discovered.

For a thousand dollar per night hotel room, this one was woefully inadequate. The lighting throughout and especially in the bathroom, was very poor. There was no bathroom counter or drawer space. One of the two ac units was not working (although, it really wasn't needed) and the TV was position such that it could not be seen from the bed.

It was a beautiful day with a very attentive staff, and a very unique viewpoint of Newport, Rhode Island. Would 100% stay here again or at another property in the future. Was an exceptional stay.

Truly one of the best experiences we’ve had. Everything we could have asked for from a beautiful and space room, great staff. Lovely staff at the front desk to great food at both breakfast and dinner. Closely located to most of central Newport. Highly recommend and when we return we will definitely return! Thanks again for making our stay such a great experience!

The Vanderbilt has such a friendly and helpful group of people working there. Every single person we interacted with went out of their way to make us feel so welcome! The Vanderbilt itself has so many charming and inviting spaces to spend time with friends. And we love how it is near enough to everything so we didn't need to use our car at all! Literally everyone you meet there is friendly, welcoming, knowledgeable and helps you to have the best time!

I stayed at The Vanderbilt last week and was thoroughly impressed. The staff were exceptionally service-minded and attentive throughout my visit.The hotel beautifully blends historical charm with modern functionality, transporting guests back in time while providing all contemporary amenities. My room was both stunning and practical, with excellent attention to detail.
