About The Attwater

Come visit our unique, design-driven boutique hotel in Newport, RI and unearth the perfect New England getaway. Steeped in Newport's nautical history — yet with a bold touch of the unexpected — you'll experience our most original Newport RI accommodations in stylish comfort. Discover a more personal lodging alternative to big box hotels — yet with a chic, modern edge elusive to most Newport RI B&Bs. Find exceptional rooms and amenities; a clever, all-day coffee cafe; and attentive service when you want it (privacy when you don't). As one of the first hotels in Newport, The Attwater is set on a quiet street just a block off Bellevue Avenue in the central historic district. All of Newport's sights, sounds and tastes — sailing, tennis, night life, restaurants, beaches, history, mansions — are all only a short stroll away. In fact, our newly renovated boutique hotel is merely three blocks from Newport Harbor and an eight-minute walk to First Beach. We look forward to welcoming you to The Attwater and helping you to explore the best of Newport.
