The food and service was excellent. I cannot say that I disliked anything about the decor or food. I loved the free afternoon tea also. The room was cozy and the views were unbelievable.

The food was good, service was excellent. If you are looking for a scenic and romantic spot, this is the place. My only negative comments are the fact that maintaince was being done to the lawn on my visit which took away from the beauty of the view.

We were in Newport during the Restaurant Week in April and Castle Hill was the first one to kick off our amazing restaurants experience in Newport. For me and Castle Inn it was the love at first sight. Dining Room is very elegant with the most amazing view of the Ocean, no matter where you are seated. Food was delicious.... More

We were treated to a culinary weekend that included stops at Bouchard and the Spiced Pear, leaving brunch at Castle Hill as the finale. Sadly, it was a serious letdown. At each stop, we asked the waiter to recommend their signature dishes. Lobster Hash for brunch was the highest recommendation, lobster and potato hash with poached eggs on top. I... More

Just wow! My husband and I had never been to Newport. We randomly ended up dining here during Restaurant Week, which was an incredible deal. We both started with mussels that were so delicious and fresh - the smoked seaweed really gave the broth a wonderful flavor! I had the salmon for dinner, clearly crafted by a chef with a... More

Had a lovely romantic dinner last Saturday. It was restaurant week and the selections were wonderful & tasty. Our server, Monty was friendly, and knowledgable. Had made our reservation via OpenTable. We were able to have our request for a quiet table for 2 granted. We had a lovely view of the lighted Newport bridge in a small dining room.... More

We enjoyed out brunch, our Mimosas, the jazz quartet, and the excellent food. The service was top-notch. But best of all was the panoramic view out over the Bay.
