Legendary Inns of Newport Takes Rhode Island's Top Luxury Hotel Group Honor, With Double AAA Four Diamond Awards For Its Luxury Newport RI Bed And Br

Newport, RI (PRWEB) April 22, 2008 -- The Legendary Inns of Newport has been recognized as Rhode Island's top AAA Four Diamond luxury hotel group. For the fifth year in a row, both its flagship Newport, RI luxury bed and breakfasts, Cliffside Inn (http://www.cliffsideinn.com) and Abigail Stoneman Inn (http://www.abigailstonemaninn.com), have received the prestigious AAA Four Diamond Award.

The double AAA Four Diamond lodging awards puts Newport's Legendary Inns (http://www.legendaryinnsofnewport.com/) in the unique position of owning and operating more than one-quarter of all the AAA Four Diamond hotels or inns in Rhode Island. The coveted Four Diamond award is given each year to only about three percent of the more than 32,000 AAA rated bed and breakfasts and hotels in America.

"The double AAA Four Diamonds are a wonderful testament to the magical mix of people and place at the Legendary Inns of Newport, " said Winthrop Baker, Group President of the Legendary Inns. "Our staff delivers our unique style of hospitality and guest service, while our bed and breakfasts are in a distinctive class of their own. It's the kind of guest experience that you can only find at smaller, special properties like the Legendary Inns."

Only seven Rhode Island bed and breakfasts, inns, or hotels have been honored with AAA Four Diamonds for 2008. One Rhode Island restaurant also received the AAA Four Diamond Award at the annual ceremony, held this year at The Hotel Providence.

Each year AAA inspects and rates lodging properties across America. According to AAA Southern New England President Mark Shaw, AAA only awards Four Diamonds to hotels and inns that consistently deliver first-class hotel experiences, superior personal service, deluxe amenities, and impressive surroundings.

Abigail Stoneman Inn became Rhode Island's first luxury bed and breakfast inn awarded the Four Diamond rating in 2003. It was followed later that year by Cliffside Inn. Named to the "Great Tea Rooms of America," the luxury Newport, RI bed and breakfast inns also feature a unique array of personal service and deluxe amenities including pillow menus and bath butler soap bars, exotic bathing salons with whirlpools and steam baths, and artwork from renowned Newport artist Beatrice Turner.

In addition to Abigail Stoneman Inn and Cliffside Inn, this year's Rhode Island AAA Four Diamond hotels, inns, and bed and breakfasts include: Point Pleasant Inn & Resort, The Chanler at Cliff Walk, Hydrangea House Inn, The Hotel Providence, and The Westin Providence. The only Rhode Island restaurant named was the Spiced Pear.

The Legendary Inns of Newport is a distinguished group of three luxury inns. All set in historic, Victorian homes, they have been meticulously restored and seamlessly blended with the finest modern amenities to produce unique, luxury bed and breakfast inns known for their warm hospitality, grand style, and relaxed elegance. The group includes the Cliffside Inn, Abigail Stoneman Inn, and Adele Tuner Inn. For more information, visit our media website (http://www.legendaryinnsofnewport.com/media/default.htm).
