Stayed for three days and wished we could stay longer! Quiet, immaculate, beautiful upstairs deck/bar and Chair 5 was one of the best meals I have had in my life! The rooms were beachy modern and clean. Highly recommend and can't wait to come back!

The hotel was decorated so beautiful. The staff was so friendly and attentive. The food was great , the room was so pretty. Love the fireplace in the bedroom and the heated pool. I guess we loved everything. Can't wait to go back.

Very pleasant, attentive staff who went out of their way to delight us. Rooms are modern, very well equipped including a gas fireplace. Ours had a nice balcony with great views of the sunrise. Bar areas are well appointed and the drinks are generous.

-TripAdvisor Review: Fred P.

 

Loved everything about this hotel. My husband and I snuck away on the off season for a little getaway and it was just perfect!

-Facebook Review: Elizabeth

 

I love the break and chair 5 for a night out. The hotel is beautiful and the rooms are well decorated and very clean. … You feel like you are on vacation as soon as you step in the building.

-TripAdvisor Review: Onna H

The hotel is beautiful including the design, the colors, the furniture, the bars, the restaurant, the pictures, the fireplaces, the lobby, and the very comfortable suites with a balcony facing the ocean a block way.

-TripAdvisor Review: joconnor691

 

The entire staff was friendly, warm, and caring. We wouldn't hesitate to stay here again. As a matter of fact, I wouldn't mind staying here and driving the 16 miles to Newport. It's THAT Good!

-TripAdvisor Review: Melonie S

 

I cannot say enough about this hidden gem! It was the perfect escape! The owners have seriously thought of everything...EVERYTHING. The lobby, rooms, and restaurants are stylishly decorated - think New York chic blended with a comfortable beach house.

-Facebook Review: Nancy

 

We stayed for the weekend for our anniversary. It was wonderful! The room was like being in your own beach cottage.....fire place, balcony, rain shower. The extras were top notch - Kuerig in the room, spa quality toiletries, cookies at night, Lindt truffles on the pillow.

-Facebook Review: Lindsay

 

This hotel is sublime! Every corner is beautiful. We stayed here for our wedding night and came back for our one-year anniversary. Elegant, luxurious, beautiful, romantic...you do not need to even leave! So much to do! I highly recommend this as a getaway for everyone! Worth every penny! Perfection!

-Facebook Review: Suzanne

 

What a gem! Every part of this hotel has been thought through with an attention to detail rarely seen in these parts. From the Usb outlets underneath the bar to the heated floors in the bathroom and the option for an in-room iPad for use during your stay (and Apple TV).

-Yelp Review: Toby H.

 

Needing a place to visit and catch up with friends from NYC, picked The Break figuring that RI was a decent 1/2 point. What a great decision! This has got to be one of the best finds. A boutique hotel, with gorgeous (and I mean 'gawgeous!!) water views from the 4th floor bar and lounge.

-Yelp Review: Marc T.

 

Wonderful experience. The break has a casual elegance that made our stay comfortable and relaxing. The room was spotless, the pool refreshing, and the location perfect. There were small touches that we appreciated, such as having a cot ready in the room for our daughter without having to ask, and fresh baked cookies at check in. Very nice staff. We're looking forward to our next stay.

-TripAdvisor Review: Edward W

 

My wife and in the past 2 weeks spent 2 nights each week at this exceptional property. We have stayed the hotel before and will again. Narragansett is a lovely area full of charm and great ocean vibes and the break is the full definition of this. Classy but not over the top. The staff is amazing n also invisible if you want them to be.

-TripAdvisor Review: Freddy

 

I highly recommend staying at The Break. It was perfectly located. Very comfortable. The pool and the area around the pool was beautiful. The restaurant on the 4th floors food was delicious with gorgeous view of the lighthouse and ocean. I hope I have chance to stay there again.

-TripAdvisor Review: Nico

 

We had four suites for my son's wedding in late June, 2022. The hotel was more sophisticated than I expected for the Rhode Island coastline. Everything was superlative. All the the suites were bright, up to date, and most importantly , they were sparkling clean. And they were cleaned every day. The views of the ocean were spectacular.

-TripAdvisor Review: Paul S

 

All the great reviews are true! We had such a pleasant stay at The Break Hotel. Prior to arrival, the staff called to let me know that the restaurant would be close for dinner the day we arrived. They provided a list of nearby restaurants and apologized for the inconvenience.

-TripAdvisor Review: SaintsFanGirl

 

With our long weekend stay in BI cut short due to weather, we weren't ready to head home so our friend recommended The Break in Narragansett and we couldn't be happier!

-TripAdvisor Review: Eileen Montross

 

What a fantastic time, we LOVED it!! The hotel is beautifully decorated, the people were SOOO friendly and helpful, the pool was fabulous, dinner at Chair 5 was fantastic and definitely eat or have a drink on the west facing balcony to watch the sunset, it was perfect! The hotel provided us with beach chairs and towels which was so convenient...

-TripAdvisor Review: Anne G

Beautiful hotel, the little details made a difference - fresh baked cookies outside your room each afternoon, delicious breakfast included in your stay, rooftop restaurant and bar overlooking the Ocean. Lane at the front desk was so sweet and helpful. Great experience!

-Expedia Review: Kelleigh

 

I loved every oz of this sweet, inviting boutique hotel. Thank you for creating a getaway of happiness.

My husband and I had a wonderful 3 night stay here. Service was amazing. People were very gracious and the rooms were immaculate. We will be back! 🤌🏽

I recently stayed at The Break Hotel and EVERYTHING was amazing! The rooftop overlooking the Atlantic was mesmerizing. The food- pork chop- so delicious! Plus the craft cocktails was such a bonus! I enjoyed the heated pool and renting the bicycle as well. 20 thumbs up!   Thanks for making my Rhode Island trip such a blessing!

-Google Review: Nicky Williams

 

Perfect little place. Beautiful setting, beachy decor, excellent food. Bed and linens were wonderful. Wish I had a whole week here and not just one night. Ocean view room worth it.

-Google Review: Kirsten Orszag

 

My wife and I just got home from a Thanksgiving stay here. We were pleased with the room we had a ocean view deluxe room with a balcony. Everything is very clean and nicely decorated. We got to use the nice gas fireplace in our room and they have many warm fires burning throughout the hotel, even one outside next to the heated pool....
