The Vanderbilt, Auberge Resorts Collection

The Vanderbilt holds a respectable B Roch Rank. This hotel offers a decent experience for dog owners, with most rooms welcoming your four-legged friends. However, dogs are not allowed in the bar or restaurant, which can be a bit of a hassle if you plan to dine in. The terrace and lounge are open to dogs, providing some space to relax together. A major plus is that dogs can stay in the room alone, giving you the freedom to explore Newport without worry. Amenities are a mixed bag here. While the hotel provides dog beds and bowls, don't expect any free treats or dog food, so pack accordingly. The lack of a dedicated dog space or garden is a downside, especially in a small town like Newport where green spaces are limited. On the bright side, the hotel offers guidance on dog walk routes, which is a nice touch for exploring the area. The fee is $150 per stay, which is on the steep side, especially considering the limited amenities. There's no damage deposit, which is a relief, but the weight limit of 50 lbs is restrictive, excluding popular breeds like Labradors. Only one dog per room is allowed, so families with multiple dogs might find this limiting. Overall, The Vanderbilt provides a decent stay for dog owners, but the high fee and weight restrictions might make you think twice. If you're planning a visit, make sure to secure any pet care arrangements well in advance. This hotel has been evaluated, ranked, and reviewed using the Roch Standard, the world's first dog friendly standard for the hotel industry.
