On Newport’s working waterfront, The Brenton Hotel presents a contemporary interpretation of a private yacht, with clean lines, pale timber and broad harbour views. Its 57 rooms and suites are unusually generous, using nautical references sparingly alongside floor-to-ceiling windows and tailored furnishings. The Living Room serves as restaurant, bar and lounge, opening the ground floor to the marina, while the rooftop terrace adds fire pits, seating and an elevated outlook across Narragansett Bay. A small putting green and complimentary bicycles extend the experience beyond the building, with boats and harbour activity visible from much of the hotel.
