We had a wonderful stay at The Brenton Hotel in Newport, RI. The hotel has a beautiful modern boutique feel—stylish, clean, and thoughtfully designed throughout. What really stood out was the staff. Everyone was incredibly welcoming, friendly, and attentive, making our stay feel extra special. We were also so impressed with how pet-friendly the hotel is. Our pup, was treated like a princess and truly felt at home. Highly recommend this hotel if you’re looking for a chic, comfortable, and pet-friendly place to stay in Newport!
