Top hotels in Top of the Hill

The Attwater
Clean and spacious king suite. Comfy bed. Parking was tight. Area around place not visually appealing, nothing but parking lots. Close enough to restaurants to enable you to walk into town. Several good restaurants nearby.

Bellevue House
Room was attractive. Very clean. A strong antiseptic odor in lobby but room was very nice. It was cold overnight and there weren’t any blankets to add to the thin bedding.

The Newport Harbor Hotel & Marina
Staff was friendly. The room was mostly clean. Though the window had some finger prints and smears from what was probably a toddler.
