In need of a getaway? You could spend hours driving or flying to a new destination… or you could simply head to Newport and book a stay at one of the most beautiful hotels in New England. The Attwater has been described as coastal-chic, and it certainly has a subtle but distinct nautical theme. It’s also a fantastic place to stay, and every Rhode Islander should take advantage of its close proximity.

The Attwater sits nestled in the heart of the historic district in Newport, at 22 Liberty Street.
