Second or third time at this marina, and it’s always a pleasure. Very responsive and professional dock staff. Great location! I didn’t need any of the facilities so can’t comment on that but I did get a passing glimpse of the laundry room which seemed large, modern and clean. When in Newport, this is where we stay!

We were participants in the Newport to Bermuda Race and had a slip for June 18, 19 & 20. 2024. During our sailing transit from DE to Newport on June 17 & 18 we had an engine alarm go off requiring repairs in Newport at New England Boat Works. I told the Dockmaster I had to move the boat and asked to cancel and refund the June 20 slip reservation fee. He said he couldn’t….?? We also had a room in the Newport Harbor Hotel for June 19 & 20. The hotel allowed me to cancel the June 20 room and refund the money….

Despite that, we Will definitely return. Thanks for a great stay!

4-stars in my book is very good. This marina is in a great central location, attached to a hotel which includes use of its amenities, and overall is a great place to stay. I rarely give a full 5-star rating, believing there is always something that could be improved. We will stay again in the future, without hesitation. The biggest issue is cost. During warmer weather, we can grab a mooring for a fraction of any marina's fee in NPT. NHHM is competitively priced, and offers electricity to keep us warm all night... Highly Recommended!n (10yr customer, last: July '23)

The marina is great...excellent dock hands, easy in, easy out but a lot of boat traffic in Newport harbor so be careful. The bathroom facilities are just ok. They haven't been updated in quite a while. I would have given 5 stars but our favorite part of staying there is the firepit which they usually light around 8 pm but it was not working this weekend. The hotel attendant said there was something wrong with the gas ignition. All in all it was a great weekend.
