Getting To Newport
If you’re flying into Newport, it’s almost 100% certain that you’ll arrive via the TF Green Airport. From here, you can rent a car, ride the bus (via RIPTA or Peter Pan Bus Lines), or book an Uber to go to Newport.
Getting Around
Renting a car is by far the easiest and most convenient option for getting around, especially considering most mansions do not allow large bags and luggage inside.
Where To Stay
The magic of Newport is that wherever you decide to stay, you’ll be within walking distance of restaurants, bars, shops, and other attractions. If you want oceanfront views, Castle Hill Inn & Resort, Club Wyndham Inn on Long Wharf, or The Chanler at Cliff Walk are solid choices. However, if downtown Newport is more your style, Hotel Viking, Courtyard by Marriott Newport Middletown, or Mill Street Inn are also great places to stay.
Exploring Newport mansions gives you a glimpse of how the rich lived in the Gilded Age, which is part of our history. In fact, it’s one of the stops in a New England road trip itinerarythat we’ve previously described. Don’t forget to check out nearby Rhode Island wineries.
