Vacations Close To Briggs-Boesch Farm

This is in a perfect location - lots of history and the old house has character in the best way. Hope to return on our next trip.

Great location! Although parking is crazy because their lot is also a public parking lot. No valet. The staff was ok, some were nice and polite enough some acted like they were paying us to stay there. Our stay was okay but there is nothing special about this hotel, it’s a bit outdated, no special touches, and the costumer service was lacking. Didn’t feel any different from a Hampton Inn, yet for the daily rate I was definitely expecting more than just paying to be in a great location.

proximity to downtown

The location was excellent. The Atlantic Suite needs a little work to justify the cost per night. The refrigerator froze all of our drinks even on the lowest setting. This suite is not conducive for work as there is no desk. The bathroom is a bit worn, especially the shower. One of the lights in the bathroom was flickering. There is a nice fireplace in the sitting area which we used and enjoyed. The complimentary breakfast was excellent. The staff was helpful and friendly. The Atlantic Suite was advertised as having a queen bed but it was a full-sized bed.

We loved our stay at The Wayfinder. We were new to Newport area so were not at all familiar with the logistics. At fist, we worried that the hotel was not walkab to downtown. However, the benefit and amenities The Wayfinder provides outweighs being walkable...It might be the only hotel that offers free onsite parking. PLUS they offer a shuttle that goes to downtown every hour, which is huge because parking is not easy to find and it's expensive. So once you park your car and check in, we didn't have to get into our car again and were gone all day everyday enjoying the things to do around Newport! The shuttle drivers were so friendly and accomodating. The hotel itself has all the amenities you need... a large outdoor pool with plenty of lounge chairs and decorated in fun colors with a fence to make you feel like you're someplace else. Little things like the colorful decor in the check-in area, and having several comfy lounging areas in the lobby to either read, relax or work on your computer. Wifi was a bit spotty in our room, but fine in the lobby. There is a good restaurant onsite, with a nice bar area. And a grab and go coffee/snack shop in the lobby which we used every morning! The rooms were clean and beds were comfy. And the fitness is small but has everything you need to get a good workout in! We would definitely come back!

Fantastic stay. Friendly, helpful staff. Delicious breakfast. Very pleased with our stay.
