Top Palmer Island Hotel Reviews

The Coonamessett

10/10 Excellent

"Quiet location with easy parking and low key vibe."

Atlantic Beach Hotel Newport

8/10 Good

"The room was clean. The staff was very helpful."

Founder's Brook Motel and Suites

8/10 Good

"I was only there for a night. And I can’t imagine I’d stay longer than a weekend just bc it’s small. That said, it’s super clean and safe, it’s easy to get to the highway, and I loved that I didn’t have to unpack bc necessary items were provided. If it were a little bigger or had an easy chair (maybe instead of a desk), it was perfect. But great stop through spot."

Holiday Inn Express Fall River North by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"El desayuno, la habitación y el trato del personal son un 10/10. 100% recomendado"
