The Chanler at Cliff Walk in Newport, Rhode Island, is one of New England's most sophisticated and historic lodging properties, but the atmosphere is comfortably casual and unpretentious. Even if you don't own a palatial oceanfront estate--or even a plasma TV--of your own, you'll feel right at home at The Chanler.

Whether you and your true love choose the opulent Renaissance Suite with its gold leaf-accented ceiling, rooftop deck and column-surrounded sunken tub or the Peonies & Ivy garden villa with its painted sleigh bed and French doors opening to an oceanview deck, your stay at The Chanler will allow you to share the ultimate romantic luxury--time together to dream.
