11 Best Hotels in Newport, Rhode Island, for a New England Escape | Condé Nast Traveler

"Opened in late 2023, this stylish, social, lineage-rooted newcomer proves Newport’s new wave can vibe with the old. Co-owned by Howard Cushing, whose family’s ancestral home inspired the design, it’s a three-story clapboard building set back from Thames Street on the waterfront, with a soaring foyer, whimsical chinoiserie murals, and a glamorous rattan chair by the entrance that’s already Instagram-famous. Dinner upstairs at Flora is one of the hottest tables in town; if you can’t snag a reservation, a spicy marg in the Studio Bar pairs with a great menu of small bites in what is currently one of Newport’s best social spaces." - Todd Plummer
