WOW! We rented out the whole place for a family event, and you never really know how these things are going to turn out, but this worked out so so well. The staff were incredibly nice, the rooms were spacious, clean and comfortable, the food (afternoon tea, breakfast) was awesome. There were two small glitches- one, an issue with the fireplace in the main room not working. This was kind of awkward because I had specifically chosen this place (and rented all five rooms) based on the fact that it had a working (wood-burning) fireplace where we could all congregate, and it was even in my correspondence with the inn when I booked, but when we showed up it was not working. But I can understand if it's a temporary safety issue, and the staff were so nice and everything else was so good that it totally made up for it. (And I can only assume that since it's a first-class place that they've fixed whatever the issue was.) Two- the air handling kind of freaked everyone out at night. It comes on like a jet engine, and the controls are baffling. We managed to get it under control though. If we come back to Newport I'd definitely stay at the Hilltop again!

My boyfriend and I stayed at the Hilltop Inn and absolutely loved it! The innkeeper and staff members were extremely pleasant. The Inn is small and very quaint. Breakfast and afternoon tea are a must, both were extremely delicious.

We decided to spend the weekend in Newport at the last minute and chose Hilltop Inn by its awesome Trip Advisor reviews. We were not disappointed.

The room was amazing - we stayed in the Bellevue Suite. It had two fireplaces, a separate living room area, a huge bathroom and a private deck with french doors leading out to it. Beautiful.

Although our trip was short, the staff was amazing and the breakfast was as well. My boyfriend had Eggs Benedict and I had a strawberry cream cheese stuffed waffle. Very good.

We are already planning our summer return trip to the Hilltop Inn!

My boyfriend and I stayed at the Hilltop Inn from a Saturday through Monday. We were greeted by Janet and immediately felt her congeniality and warmth. We stayed in the Stewart Room which was beautiful! It had a fireplace and jacuzzi. The room was immaculate and tastefully decorated.

The food was also amazing! Breakfast included both a buffet and hot entree (your choice btwn a sweet or savory dish...we tried and loved both). In the afternoon, they laid out a spread of teas and delicious homemade pastries and snacks. The pumpkin cookies, cinnamon cake, and toffee bars were divine! We made sure we were back at the Inn both days around 3:00 for the goodies!

The Inn is perfectly located and within walking distance to the shops and restaurants.

Janet and her staff were friendly and accommodating. We have nothing negative at all to say about our stay at the Hilltop Inn. Thanks to Janet and her staff for everything!!!
