Everything that you read about the Attwater is true. It is truly a fabulous hotel run by two of the nicest people you could ever hope to meet. Roland and Sadie greet you like long lost relatives and are always there to offer a suggestion as to where to eat, shop, visit, etc.
My wife and I felt like we had known them for years. The hotel rooms and baths sparkle - not a speck of dust anywhere. Each room has its own distinctive character and decor with comfortable beds, ample closet space and more drawer space than anyone could possibly need. The continental breakfast is fresh, ample, and delicious (fresh fruit, juices, choice of cereals, breads, muffins, bagels, cottage cheese, and outstanding homemade granola). The location could not be better. It is located next to the Newport Art Museum and is a short walk to all that Newport has to offer. A lovely park is one block from the hotel. It is far enough from the mobs of tourists to be quiet, yet within easy access of everything including a CVS and Organic Supermarket. We loved our time at the Attwater and are already planning our return visit in the fall.
