About the Hotel
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.

A delightful, small hotel.
A lovely, gracious, attractive inn, with friendly and attentive staff, wonderful food and drink, and comfortable accommodations. We did provide some feedback suggesting the addition of better lighting and storage options in the guest rooms.

outstanding personalized service in a beautiful hotel
Fantastic stay in Newport at a property that really went above and beyond to show the value they could provide. This wasn't an inexpensive hotel but somehow they made it seem worth twice the price. We were emailed prior to our stay and mentioned that we were there on a road trip showing our kids all the states and that Rhode Island was our 45th state. When we got to our room, there was a lovely gift back with a book on all 50 states and a separate book on Rhode Island. Our kids were delighted and it really was an example of every single staff member going above and beyond to make our stay memorable. We loved our room, it felt unique and had lots of great touches. The location was perfect, the indoor pool was great, and every dining and bar experience we had here was top notch. This was easily in my top 5 hotels I've been too and we have been to a lot of wonderful locations.

Special place and staff are exceptional
Had a conference at this property. The staff are the difference at this hotel. Very personable and attentive. Will be back for another visit soon.

Once in a lifetime stay
We had an absolutely exceptional stay at The Vanderbilt in Newport—truly one of the most memorable hotel experiences we’ve ever had. What made it so special was the incredible team: Heather, Melissa, Luke, and all the bell and door staff. From the moment we arrived, they went above and beyond in every way. They remembered our names and preferences, greeted us warmly every time we came and went, and made us feel genuinely welcome—not just as guests, but as friends. Their kindness, attentiveness, and personal touches created an experience that felt more like staying with family than at a hotel. It’s rare to find that level of service and authenticity, and it made all the difference. We’ve stayed in many beautiful places, but we have never had such a thoughtful, warm, and personalized experience. We can’t wait to return.
