The Wayfinder is a beautiful hotel not far from all the amazing things to do in Newport. The rooms were spacious and the hotel restaurant had amazing food. The pool had a great atmosphere and was very child friendly. I will definitely stay here the next time we come to Newport.

Everything you can think of was up to par. Clean room, clean sheets, clean shower, a dark towel for makeup, friendly staff, and aesthetically pleasing decor. There was also a coffee shop in the lobby and a restaurant that were both amazing.
