From the reviews
💎 where to begin!? ✨ This is the most enchanting property I’ve ever been on in my life. It is so Luxe and cozy the same time. I was privileged to have been chosen to work for a beautiful young lady having her rehearsal dinner for her wedding the following day today.
My husband and I spent two nights at the Castle Hill Inn for our anniversary and it was absolutely amazing! The staff made us feel so welcomed and always greeted us by name. The views are breathtaking. The food at all of the restaurants was excellent as well as the service.
Castle Hill Inn was truly one of the most incredible experiences we had in Newport. From the moment we arrived, everything felt special. We started out on the lawn in the Adirondack chairs, drinking wine, watching the boats go by, and taking in the sunset over the water.
I have to say. I have never been treated better than the valet guys at Castle Hill Inn. Riley, Marcus, Grady and Warren were incredible. I would trust them with my own children let alone my ride. Service was impeccable, friendly, kind and courteous. Top of the line gentlemen.
Getting married at Castle Hill Inn
A castle wedding is the once-in-a-lifetime, storybook kind — the grand staircase, the ballroom, the gardens and turrets your photos will live on forever. Castle weddings commonly run $10,000–$40,000+ depending on the date, guest count, and how much is included, so ask for a written quote for your season — Castle Hill Inn doesn’t publish a set price, and tiers move fast. Two things make the tour worth the drive. First, see it at the time of day you’d actually get married — a ballroom that glows at golden hour can feel very different at noon, and you’ll want to walk the path your guests take from the gates to the ceremony to the reception. Second, bring your real questions: what’s included with the venue fee (tables, chairs, setup, teardown), the catering and bar policy, whether you can stay overnight on-site, the rain plan for a garden ceremony, and the music curfew. Fairytale dates at castle venues book 12–18 months out, so if the tour feels right, ask what’s open in your season before you leave.
Galas & corporate events at Castle Hill Inn
Reviews and the castle's own info mention galas, corporate events, or private parties at Castle Hill Inn — castle venues often have real weekday availability since weddings claim the weekends. A quick call answers the three things that matter: weekday and off-season rates, whether the space works for your headcount and A/V needs, and what catering is allowed. If your event lands on a Friday or Saturday in wedding season, ask early.
