ギルデッド (ニューポート)

Excellent attention to design and detail, very clean, great fireplace, softest sheets ever, incredible gourmet breakfast, friendly staff. Sleep sofa was not comfortable but everything else was 100% excellent!!!

We arrived from NY at 8pm with reservations made the previous day and were met by a super friendly gentleman who assigned us the last room--a cramped, noisy room next to the entry, the only one on the ground floor. The two windows looked out over parking, and beneath it was a storage area to which laundry was delivered the next day. The noises of staff and folks coming and going penetrated the room throughout the day. The bathroom had a tiny sink with no counter space. The mattress seemed more like straw than feathers. An identical cold breakfast was served each day, and though advertised as something special was anything but. For a town famed for dozens of appealing hotels and inns, this one falls way below standards. The room for which we paid $450/night (with tax) might have been worth $200 in high season, but it shouted "greed" to us this weekend. It should be retired from service as a guest room and turned into a staff room or office for which it is best suited.

My mom and I stayed at Gilded for one night and had a wonderful stay. Zack at the front desk was so friendly and helpful. Room was as pictured; clean, spacious, comfortable. Bathroom was clean and roomy. Robes were a really nice touch and the ipad loaded with local recommendations was user friendly and helpful. We would definitely stay here again. Neighborhood was quiet and close to shopping; parking was convenient.

Our room was located on the upper floor. It was quite small. you opened the door & there was the bed. The bathroom was up a step through a door which opened into the room; the toilet was right in front of the door - bathroom difficult to maneuver with two adults. Positives - bed was comfortable; great pillows; fresh sheets. We had previously stayed in Salem at a Lark Hotel & it was amazing. I was not as impressed with this space.

Tapas breakfasts are unique and the variety and quality was excellent. Some street noise in the morning from locals.
