    Hilltop,circa 1910, abounds with architectural details,charm and romance. Stained glass and craftsman-style casement windows make enchanting light in every room in the inn. Hilltop has nine fireplaces,all of which have been lovingly restored with classic arts and crafts ceramic tiles or slate.The bedrooms (one on the first floor and four on the second) each feel private and tucked away from the others. From the foyer's coffered ceiling to the gentle arc of the elegant central stair to the oriental rugs and luxuriously appointed bathrooms, Hilltop is a house that brings quiet delight to those who inhabit both its common and its private spaces.

    WONDERFUL EXPERIENCE!

    September 24, 2009

    My boyfriend and I spend a couple of days in this B&B and we had an amazing and memorable time. Everyone was so friendly and helpful. The Inn was clean and very relaxing.I will recommended to any couple who wants to get away and have a romantic time with your partner to stay at the Hilltop Inn in RI.

    Wonderful Stay 9/16-9/18

    September 24, 2009

    First visit to Newport and we wanted a somewhat quite place, yet close to everything. Hilltop fit the bill perfectly. It was mostly booked so we took the larger Bellevue suite (a bit big for just 2), also bought the extra "experience Newport" pkg. Best parts of that were the sightseeing sail, mansion tour tickets, and dinner voucher at a local restaurant. Some of the pkg was not really needed- the limousine tour ride (I have a car) the cheese and crackers in room (too much food already). Maybe next time the pkg offering can be modified or done ala carte? The Inn itself is quite clean and comfortable, reminded me of my grandmother’s house as a child. Period furniture from early to mid 1900's yet with all modern amenities- whirlpool tub and shower which fit two nicely, free wireless internet that connected easily, and flat panel LCD TV's (however a bit small at 22"). Our hosts were extremely friendly and helpful. Breakfast each day was very good and you had a couple hot entrees, cooked to order, from which to choose. We thought the afternoon tea at 3pm was outstanding. The selection of fruits, pastries, cakes etc. to go with your coffee or tea was excellent. These items were also left out for 2-3 hrs so you wouldn't miss out if running late. The only very minor suggestion we can make is that lighting above the mirror in the bathroom is inadequate, could be improved/brighter. Primarily for the ladies wanting to apply or remove make-up. Other than that, everything else is wonderful. We highly recommend Hilltop and would stay there again next time in Newport. Cheers!

    Perfect Place

    July 10, 2009

    Hilltop Inn is the perfect place to stay in Newport RI. Just far away from the crazyness of the strip but still only a short 5 minute walk to everything! The Inn and the staff were wonderful. Rooms lovely! Breakfast divine, teas wonderful, evening port and munchies so good. From soup to nuts it was PERFECT!
