Felt like royalty!
From the moment we arrived, we knew we had made the right choice of where to stay in Newport. Away from the hustle and bustle of downtown but close enough to be within walking distance, this historic hotel did not disappoint! The staff was welcoming and genuine in their kindness. Our room was beautifully decorated and very comfortable. We had a dinner and a breakfast at the hotel during our stay and both meals were excellently prepared and delicious. We look forward to our next stay at the Hotel Viking!

This was Day's Inn experience for Ritz Carlson prices.
Checked into the room after a very long day of driving, to find that the sheets on the sofa bed were soiled. Called the front desk. Phone rang and rang. Went down to front desk, asked for new sheets. Waited an hour. Called front desk, phone rang and rang. Went back down to front desk, and made it very clear that for over $700/night I expected clean sheets. Sheets were delivered in 20m, made bed myself. Front desk staff was courteous but indifferent. Woke up to loud Spanish conversations by cleaning staff in hallway at 6AM. Room was otherwise fine. Bellhops/valets were courteous and excellent.

Terrific hotel and wonderful staff
I stayed at this hotel for a business meeting. Everything about the hotel is terrific. The beds were super comfortable and the pillows are good quality. In my room, the toilet and shower were separate from the sink and closet area, which was very nice and well done. The staff were incredibly nice and helpful and the food at the conference was good. It is a short walk to the shopping area and harbor. Highly recommend.

Average Hotel
To be a 4 star hotel we were expecting a little better service especially at restaurant where we had breakfast every morning during our 6 night stay.

We got married at Kay Chapel and had our reception at the Hotel Viking in December. The entire event was everything that I hoped it would be! The Hotel Viking is traditional, outstanding and eloquent. Our reception was in the Bellevue Ballroom and everything was beautiful. The staff was exceptional! They were there for us throughout the evening and paid such close attention to all of the guests! The hotel service was also outstanding. I am delighted to give the Hotel Viking the highest of reviews.
