“Hammetts Hotel certainly nails the Newport aesthetic, reflecting the city's maritime history with a contemporary twist. The location is superb, placing you right on the docks near excellent restaurants and within easy walking distance of major attractions like Bowen's Wharf, though I suspect rooms err on the smaller side. It's a stylish base for exploring, particularly well-suited for couples seeking a convenient, if not overly spacious, getaway.”
