Newport is getting a new hotel next month with the opening of Island House Newport on March 13. Developed by Marshall Properties and operated by Main Street Hospitality, the hotel offers modern accommodations designed to reflect the city’s maritime history.
Located near Newport’s famed beaches, Bellevue Avenue, the harbor and the Cliff Walk, the luxury hotel is designed to offer guests easy access to the city’s top attractions. The property features spacious suites with customizable room layouts, catering to families, groups and business travelers.

“At Main Street, we are dedicated to creating meaningful stays, and Island House Newport is a stunning addition to our growing collection,” said Sarah Eustis, CEO of Main Street Hospitality. “The partnership with Marshall Properties made perfect sense — both of our companies are multigenerational businesses deeply committed to the communities we serve.”
Beyond its rooms, the hotel offers flexible spaces for social gatherings and a hospitality experience rooted in local expertise. Led by General Manager Taylor Lesandrini, Island House Newport is now accepting reservations.
“Island House Newport represents a new level of accommodation for the city. We designed and built it with an intimate understanding of what makes Newport exceptional,” said John Marshall, owner of Marshall Properties.
Established in 2014, Main Street Hospitality was originally founded at The Red Lion Inn in Stockbridge, Mass. The company’s management portfolio includes The Red Lion Inn; The Porches Inn at MASS MoCA in North Adams; Hotel Downstreet in North Adams; and many more.
