The Wayfinder is a beautiful hotel not far from all the amazing things to do in Newport. The rooms were spacious and the hotel restaurant had amazing food. The pool had a great atmosphere and was very child friendly. I will definitely stay here the next time we come to Newport.
Everything you can think of was up to par. Clean room, clean sheets, clean shower, a dark towel for makeup, friendly staff, and aesthetically pleasing decor. There was also a coffee shop in the lobby and a restaurant that were both amazing.

Liked: Staff & service, amenities
Staff were very helpful. Good location. Room was nice, but attention to detail when cleaning was lacking. We had an issue with our toilet flushing when we were there and it was addressed satisfactorily. Overall quiet, except for our last night.
Cute hotel. Clean. The pool area was nice. The shuttle to the wharf was amazing because parking there is impossible. The bed was a little form for me. The biggest complaint is the room was really hot. The air conditioner is surrounded by a panel and it blocks airflow
Another great stay. The pool is always wonderful. Only hiccup was the shower did not get cleaned from the last guest so there was a ton of long hair but the next day housekeeping took care of.
Stayed with my family of four , teens 13 and 14 and it was perfect. The staff was wonderful, room was clean and the hotel was beautifully updated . You can tell they put a lot of effort in to the property. The bed comfort level was I’d say mid at a 6/10 comfort level. The hotel smells amazing , I don’t know what scent they are piping through the place, but it gives West#% vibes. We loved the shampoo/lotion/body wash scent and we had to go to Thames Street to stock up on the local soap brand they have in rooms. If you’re an Instagram mom that is looking for a cute , family oriented property this is your place .
Good location. Clean room. Odd layout. Had to climb up and down stairs to get to and from room with luggage. Otherwise no issues. Special mention: Kevin is amazing!! Genuinely caring and helpful.
We stayed there with our infant and the staff was extremely accommodating with getting us checked in as quickly and smoothly as possible. The room was also nice and had everything we needed to feel comfortable for the weekend
We were celebrating our anniversary here and the womanbat the front desk blessed us with a king suite upgrade, it was so nice to have the extra living room space! Driver of the shuttle was very nice and the staff at the hotel and restaurant were top notch. Restaurant was great, way better than I thought based on the "diner" vibe.
My stay at the Wayfinder Hotel was absolutely wonderful! From the moment I arrived, I felt welcomed and taken care of. Kevin and Christine at the front desk were outstanding—friendly, professional, and always willing to help with a smile. Their exceptional customer service made me feel right at home.
A special shoutout to Eddy, the shuttle driver and tour guide. He truly made the experience unforgettable! His knowledge of the area, great personality, and genuine care for guests made every ride enjoyable. He went above and beyond to make venturing out around Newport fun, easy, and stress-free. Wayfinder is fortunate to have him on their team—he deserves a raise! Employees like Eddy are the reason guests want to come back.
The hotel itself was clean, comfortable, and full of character. Thank you to the entire Wayfinder team for making my trip so memorable. I can’t wait to visit again!

Was on okay place to stay. Restaurant service for breakfast was absurdly slow and the restaurant is pretty overpriced. The room was clean. The hotel is a lot of dark hallways and we had to go out and back in to get into the lobby or go to the pool. Wasn’t as cool as it looks online but it was an ok place to stay if you’re just looking for a hotel.
the hotel was lovely and very clean. the staff were very friendly and helpful and the shuttle bus into town was very well organized and worked out really well so we didn't have to drive our car and pay for the parking. The rooms were very clean and I love the wooden floor, in my opinion all hotel rooms should have wooden floors. The only thing that wasn't great was the noise of the air conditioner in the bedroom. it was extremely loud and woke me up through the night every time it came on, also there could of been a bigger menu and better variety of food in the restaurant. But overall I was extremely pleased and would recommend to family or friends. I would also stay there again myself.
Clean room, great staff! The shuttle and the shuttle driver was great! They charge you an urban destination fee for the amenities and shuttle service except the pool was closed.
Best Restaurant in a hotel I have ever eaten at! Staff was incredibly friendly and helpful as well! Room was great as well and close to central Newport easy to uber and drive from.
