I agree with the first review, except for one thing, the food is spectacular. The restaurant is in my opinion the best in Newport. Even if you don't stay there, make sure you try the Spiced Pear.
The Chanler was GREAT. Wonderful room (decorated exquisitely but small). The service was terrific from the concierge to the driver who took us to the St. Patricks Parade! The Spiced Pear was one of the best dining experiences I've had and...

My wife and I spent a three day weekend for our 20th Aniversary. It was an enormous rip-off. It would be ok if they charged $150 per night, but for $600 per night it was nothing less than an con job.
This is the greatest illusion ever. Get a beautiful property, design it with the most opulent materials, placed on a cliff facing the ocean, and you think you've reached paradise! Not Even Close! I made a reservation for a party of 22 to dine ...
