The Vanderbilt, Auberge Collection

What a treat! The ambience of the hotel is warm and elegant. Staff are highly attentive and friendly. Food was top notch and the room was relaxing and comfortable. Looking forward to coming back some day soon.

My stay at the Vanderbilt in Newport was truly unforgettable. From the moment we arrived, the level of service was exceptional — every detail was thoughtfully handled and we were made to feel completely taken care of. The staff treated us like royalty, anticipating our needs before we even had to ask.

The room was beautiful and impeccably designed, blending historic charm with modern comfort. The décor throughout the property is stunning and perfectly captures the elegance and grandeur you’d expect from such an iconic mansion.

Dinner on site was equally impressive — the food, atmosphere, and service were all outstanding. It felt like a full experience, not just a meal.

It’s rare to find a place where every element — the accommodations, the service, the setting, and the dining — is executed so flawlessly. I’ve never felt so welcomed and cared for during a stay. I cannot recommend it highly enough and can’t wait to return.

My wife and I traveled to Newport for a long weekend to enjoy some spa services and relax. The Vanderbilt's service is top tier. Every member of their staff that we had an interaction with was extremely pleasant and professional. We felt like we did not need to lift a finger. They were extremely responsive in catering to all of our requests. We will certainly be back.

Everything about my stay at The Vanderbilt was spectacular. The hospitality was truly exceptional, and the team went above and beyond to make my birthday feel special. From the service to the overall atmosphere, every detail was thoughtful and memorable. I’m so grateful for the experience and can’t wait to return.

We had lovely stay even with the snow storm that had occurred the week prior. Location was excellent and the hotel was beautiful.

Truly gorgeous hotel with great attention to detail, consistent hospitality amongst all employees, and the room was gorgeous. The setting was perfect for a winter wedding.

Thank you for an extraordinary stay during my husband's birthday! The staff at the front desk, the bellman, the valet, the room service, cleaning staff, dining room, and all were absolutely phenomenal. We encountered a crew of extremely dedicated workers who made our stay the best, and the Vanderbilt is lucky to have them. My husband even got to drive the Maybach on his birthday, which was a special treat. We are grateful for such a phenomenal stay, and we plan to return every year.

Beautiful hotel, but it was the service of every single person I encountered that truly made it magical. Beautiful from start to finish. We were on college visits and spent the night. From the moment we arrived, we were engaged and the team effortlessly jumped in and thought of ways to help our trip go smoothly. Every single interaction was kind and helpful and genuine. I might actually go out of my way to go to Newport in the middle of winter again just to experience it.

Fantastic visit. Great service, fantastic food. Above and beyond in every aspect. Would highly recommend a stay. Even in winter it was great.

Briefly, it was an excellent stay. Very welcoming and accommodating staff. Especially, Melissa, concierge. Greta location to saunter around Newport. Rooms were great as were amenities and dining. Breakfast was excellent, especially home made scone!

Every member of the staff was exceptionally warm and welcoming. The Sunday roast was delicious, the cocktails were fantastic, and the hotel itself is beautifully designed. There are also plenty of activities to enjoy during your stay. I would highly recommend The Vanderbilt.

Loved it! Honestly the entire team was SO kind and so accommodating. I went with my youngest son for an event he was having in the area and I honestly look forward to returning with the rest of the family.

We had such an amazing time at this lovely hotel. The staff was so friendly and accommodating, helping us to line up a car tour of the area. We enjoyed the spa, dining room, brunch, tarot and indoor pool.

We had a lovely experience, the hotel was beautiful. The front desk was warm and friendly. Also it was the week after the snow storm, everything was cleared up, the valet made sure our car was upfront in the freezing cold. Breakfast service as well, was super friendly.

We celebrated my sister’s birthday and the Vanderbilt was the perfect setting. We had a couple of suites so could relax in our rooms together. The brunch is especially good, and the pool is serene and pretty. It was cold outside but warm at the Vanderbilt in every way.

Terrific stay at The Vanderbilt that made our special anniversary feel even more special. The rooms and the common areas were impeccable, top notch service, and delicious food. We'll be back!

Quite disappointed with this Auberge which really doesn’t meet their normal standards.

The room was large, two stories and was well equipped, sort of!! Had to ask several times for things you’d normally expect. Staff not as friendly or helpful as expected and the food can be split.. breakfast food was good and choice was ok.. evening meal was atrocious and the service and eating areas were awful.. actually found it quite grubby.

Good base for Rhode Island which wasn’t what I expected at all.. very touristy and a little down market.. positively Baltic in March

The moment we arrived, we were greeted by a friendly staff ready and willing to assist us. Check in process was efficient. The room was immaculate. Staff through out our stay was so gracious and helpful. The entire inn is beautiful. The atmosphere creates a calm, warm and cozy feel. We loved every minute of our stay!

I had a wonderful New Year’s stay at the Vanderbilt. Gabby and the entire front desk team were incredibly kind, welcoming, and genuinely invested in making sure my friend and I had an amazing vacation. That level of hospitality truly stood out.
The property has such a cozy atmosphere with a beautiful Gilded Age edge. It feels both elegant and inviting. We attended the New Year’s Eve party and everything from the food and drinks to the entertainment was fantastic.
All in all, it was an awesome New Year’s excursion, and I will absolutely be back to stay at the Vanderbilt.
