Perched above the Atlantic along Newport’s legendary Cliff Walk, The Chanler at Cliff Walk is a Gilded Age mansion turned five-star boutique hotel that embodies Newport’s timeless luxury and coastal elegance. As the only hotel located directly on the famed oceanfront path, The Chanler offers sweeping seaside views, manicured gardens, and 20 uniquely designed guest rooms inspired by different historical eras.

Just steps from Easton’s Beach and minutes from Newport’s grand mansions, this historic retreat blends European sophistication with Rhode Island’s coastal allure. Days at The Chanler unfold with leisurely breakfasts on the terrace, afternoon strolls along the Cliff Walk, and evenings savoring refined dining at Cara, the hotel’s award-winning restaurant.
