Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
Disliked: Amenities
No extras which should be included for the price paid. $4 for a bottle of water is ridiculous, it should be free. No one to help w/bags. Queen room was way too small, not enough storage. Only good for a 1-2 night stay. Did not feel like a valued guest, especially for the price. A great location, which I unfortunately feel like Hammetts takes for granted, at the expense of providing superior service.

Room was extremely small and extremely expensive for the size and accomodations. $1303.74 for two nights is not worth it. No in house dining, no room refrig, no pool, no gym, etc...The staff wouldn't even provide details about tours or any outside activities. I would not stay here in future.

Other than the front desk person being unfriendly and unhelpful (at all) at check in, this was a perfect hotel located next to the marina.

Located along Newport's historic commercial district, home to many past America's Cup 12m sailing events, and the many nearby mega-mansions of the Gilded Age industrialists that brought style, prestige and money to the fabled Narragansett Bay area. Hammetts offers exceptional value for cost. Location, access, safety, dining and shopping options, convenient parking....all wrapped in well appointed spacious rooms and casual spaces. The value lies in the details...and a visit will prove the point.

Staff are not friendly. They never smile, and if you ask them a question they answer as if they are doing you a favor. Sheets and pillow cases were not changed during my three day stay. I found a nail on the floor at the feet of the bed.

I was very disappointed to say the least! I paid close to $1000 for 1 night (including parking)!! I expected luxury, however, I got a small room with a view. No mini fridge, microwave, coffee maker, or water!! The bathroom door did not stay closed, so no privacy either! I have stayed in Newport MANY times!! This was by far my worst experience, as it pertains to the hotel room, and lack of amenities! If you’re going to charge luxury prices, please follow through!
