Editorial Review for Castle Hill Inn & Resort – by Eric Grossman
The Scene
Views of Narragansett Bay dominate this 40-acre property. Whether you're taking a meal in one of the four dining rooms or attending a wedding reception on the Chalet Terrace, you'll enjoy beautiful water vistas. It's busiest from June to October, and is popular for wedding ceremonies and honeymoons.
The Details
This historic property was built in 1874 as a summer home for Harvard marine biologist Alexander Agassiz. Accommodations include guest rooms in the main Agassiz Mansion (cozy, B&B style inn), Harbor House rooms, beach house rooms and peaceful beach cottages. The resort's overall decor can best be described as being ornate without being overly fussy. The mansion's Turret suite is a two-story sanctuary, outfitted with mahogany floors, silk wall coverings and a bathtub that overlooks the bay. Guests and non-guests alike fill the dining room and breezy lawn to sip designer cocktails and enjoy gourmet fare that's made using local, seasonal ingredients.

Pricey?! You would have to mortgage your home to eat here. Nothing is worth extortion.
Pros: view
Cons: incredibly expensive

The restaurant at the Castle Hill Inn is one of the nicest places for celebrations or entering friends. The service is great as well as the food. For after dinner drinks, or for that matter before dinner drinks, sitting outside and looking out over the water/watching the sun set is the best place to be during the warmer weather.
Pros: loving setting, good food, good service
Cons: Pricey
