WELCOME TO GARDINER HOUSE

A Waterfront Boutique Hotel In Newport, RI

A waterfront hotel that moves like a Newport friend’s home, full of art and character. The 21-room, boutique Newport, RI hotel was built in 2023 and sits on the water on Lee’s wharf, off of the famed Thames Street. Steps from the water and also from restaurants and shopping, Gardiner House is energetic and serene.

A stand-out from other Newport RI hotels, Gardiner House is intentionally designed to welcome guests into a Newport setting that celebrates the iconic town’s art, music, history, drink, and love for entertaining.

A house-like feel

Studio Bar

Like the aesthetic of the hotel and the guest rooms, Studio Bar has a house-like feel – it could be the living room bar of someone who has collected artwork from travels around the globe. The space features an eclectic collection from different places – it’s a little New York, a little London and a lot of Newport. And the drinks - the drinks are the best.
