Daisy's Assessment
Researched and verified. Not yet personally stayed.
“The Vanderbilt is a mansion hotel on Mary Street in Newport. It suits a guest with one dog under 50 pounds who wants a five-star base in town. A dog bed and bowls are set up in the room before you arrive.

Why it's in the collection

The hotel is in the middle of Newport, so the first walk of the day is on town streets. The Cliff Walk is 3.5 miles long, open sunrise to sunset all year, and takes dogs on a lead.

Best suited for

One dog under 50 pounds per room, and dogs aren't allowed in the dining areas.

The open question

How the welcome translates in person, at dinner and around the hotel. That's what a Daisy stay will confirm.

Pet pricing

USD 150, One-time fee per pet, per stay

Dogs stay in the guest room with you. Dogs aren't in the dining areas, where only service animals are permitted under Rhode Island law.

Where we can't yet confirm a detail first-hand, we mark it plainly rather than guess. A Daisy stay will close every gap.
