Stay was deceit but not as expected for the price. Checking in staff was less than friendly. Room was uncomfortably warm, necessary to call front desk to cool down and then it went from warm to freezing temperature. Not well controlled.
Attended wedding during stay, great experience and fun. Bar severs pleasant. Food servers less than friendly.

This is an old mansion turned into a hotel. As a result the rooms and bathrooms are on the small side.
The hotel is a popular wedding venue with a wedding both nights we were there. While attempting to check in and unload luggage a wedding party decided to have a photo shoot in the circular driveway. The wedding party was very nice and even helpful but the photographer was rude acting as if were were intruders even telling us to “hurry up”.

The property was completely beautiful. The location is stunning. They were completely quiet on Wednesday night with no one Staying there, yet they put us in the attic room with poor air conditioning. Not sure why this has to be if they had no one staying there?

Can be found charming for a wedding venue, but best to stay elsewhere for anything else.
No shuttle, no pool, no vending machines, no mini fridge, A/C makes a lot of noise, pillows are too hard.
5 out of 5 for clean rooms.
Didn't try the restaurant.

We were put in a room that adjoined with another random guest and could hear every little thing even when they weren’t being particularly loud. We were kept up all hours of the night because you can hear every single thing. Even them peeing in the bathroom sounded like they were in our room. Past midnight and up at 6 it was terrible.
2.0 / 5.0
Unbelievable that the wifi service was sooo weak and spotty for the amount that this hotel charges - it seems they take for granted that most guests are there for a wedding - and therefore have no choice but to stay there regardless of the inconveniences … For everyone else, they should stay elsewhere

The hotel was formerly a summer "cottage" in Newport, a perfect place to stay after touring some of the other "cottages" like the Breakers & The Elms. It's primarily an ocean-front wedding venue, although we had the place almost entirely to ourselves on a Mon-Tu stay. Wonderful old mansion, very friendly staff.

The hotel is a vintage hotel which was interesting but because of that it was basic. The room was clean but a bit cramped and the overall facility needs some updates. There were no need issues but a small hotel there were extras beyond a simple clean room. The location is beautiful but remote to Newport proper. There are weddings every day but they shut down at promptly 11:00. Most of the property seems to be dedicated to the weddings so there is little try public space or grounds. Signage would be a simple upgrade for the property, even the room numbers were hard to read.
Overall a beautiful, smaller, older feeling hotel; a bit Faulty Towers in a way but most of the facility and staff are concentrated on the rental, wedding venue.

This is definitely a wedding hotel. If you're not staying for a wedding it's beautiful but it's not the best option. The mattress was terrible, there wasn't anything in the room to sit on to put your shoes on. The staff wasn't in the front desk for 15 mins when I was trying to check in. The views in the back are wonderful, but I wouldn't stay there again.

The hotel room lacked proper A/C. I turned the room unit on but it was to loud to keep running all night.
The only positive comment I have regarding our visit would be for the view. The view from the lawn was exceptional!
5.0 / 5.0
Super cute place. Very quiet - maybe because it was during the week. A little confusing to find the place. Would have been nice to have an onsite restaraunt.

This is more about the wedding venue than it is a hotel for other guests. Wedding parties are their bread & butter but not other guests and us as guests get that vibe. The bar and restaurant was closed for a private party so no accommodations for others and at over $350 a night, not worth it

Rooms were small amd missing some amenities that you would expect at the rate. Public areas were very nice ,guestrooms just fair

Ocean Cliff Hotel was a gem of a find! We absolutely loved it! The views were spectacular!! It’s a very short drive to the lighthouse / another gem of a find! And the sunset there was magnificent!! We ended up having dinner there - which was delicious! Breakfast was included, lots of options, and you couldn’t beat the views of Narragansett Bay! We will definitely be going back!!!

It is an historic building which is cool, until they have a wedding and you can hear and feel the vibrations of the music in your room until late at night. If you sleep deeply and don't have to be up early then you are all set. Didn't seem to have any quiet hours as we were woken up by guests screaming in the halls. Stayed there to be close to the start of the Newport 10 miler so wasn't thrilled with the quality of sleep I was able to get before the race. The grounds are gorgeous though.

Despite some of the reviews I’ve seen, we had a great stay. We had issues with check in as they said they didn’t see my reservation but I had proof I booked through Orbitz. The night guy gave us a key with the proof and by morning during check out it was found that my reservation was still actually there and there was a mix up, they just didn’t print a card that was needed to be signed. Regardless, every one was super nice. We stayed one night and the room was nice, clean and the bed was comfortable. We had no issues with “noise” BUT we also went in March and not during peak booking times. We would definitely stay here again!

Checked in New Year’s Eve, the bar and dining closed at 8pm! And there’s no room service either. It was not communicated to us during check in. We were hoping to stay at resort and have nice time but had to drive out to town for dinner. When we returned we asked front desk for more water guy said no! Didn’t offer to sell or call house keeping, offered no assistance. Will not return. One positive was the bathroom was clean.
