My stay at the hotel was fantastic! The rooms were perfect in every way - comfortable, clean, and spacious. We also enjoyed spending time on the wonderful first-floor front porch with friends. However, there was a slightly overpowering smell of air freshener, noticeable when coming back inside, although it became less noticeable over time. The service was top-notch, with a very friendly and accommodating staff that added a delightful community feel to our experience. The location was ideal, within walking distance of all the local tourist sights and just minutes away from the action along Thames Street. The dining experience was delicious, with cooked-to-order meals served in the penthouse overlooking the water, providing a fabulous view.

I absolutely loved my stay at this hotel! The rooms were beautifully decorated with lots of little amenities that made my stay extra special. The hot tub and fireplace were a real treat, and despite the building being on the older side, they did a great job in accommodating for its age. The room was a bit cold at first but quickly warmed up, providing a cozy atmosphere.

The rooms were perfect with a hot tub and a fireplace that we made use of. Despite the building being rather old, they were well decorated and had lots of amenities. The room was initially cold but warmed up nicely.

The service was top-notch! The staff was extremely friendly and willing to share recommendations on what to see and where to eat. Even when I had to schlep groceries up 3 flights of stairs, they were most kind and helpful.

The location was ideal for my visit to Newport. It had a beautiful view and was convenient to mansions, cliff walk, and the center of town, all within walking distance. It was truly convenient to everything Newport has to offer.

My stay at the Artful Lodger was wonderful with cozy and clean rooms, a big comfy bed, and a peaceful atmosphere. However, the hotel could do with some updating as it had an old-fashioned feel and a musty smell. On the plus side, the breakfast was excellent and they even had a bathtub, which was a nice touch.

The location of the Artful Lodger was perfect for exploring Newport. It was within walking distance of the Mansions, the harbor, and many restaurants. Being close to the Mansions and overlooking one of them added to the charm, although there were some noise disturbances from above at times.

The dining experience at the hotel was a bit hit or miss. While the food was delicious with a lovely view, there were some issues on the weekends with limited options. However, ordering room service was convenient.
