Hotel Viking 

4.0

Newport, RI
  • Up to 250 guests
  • Select services
  • Indoor & outdoor
  • Starts at $15,000

Memorable Hospitality Since 1926. Located atop downtown Newport’s Historic Hill neighborhood, Hotel Viking opened to an awestruck public almost a century ago. As a member of the prestigious Historic Hotels of America, our Newport RI luxury hotel holds a special place in history. From the original key boxes located behind the Front Desk, to the 1926 brass letterbox in the Lobby, the hotel offers a wonderful combination of style, comfort, and modern amenities. More than a building or a name, we are an iconic and important landmark in the Newport landscape. We are inspired by and committed to the unique experiences for our guests: past, present, and future.

Wow, what a great experience from start to finish! We’re so glad we chose to host our wedding at Hotel Viking. Everyone at Hotel Viking was respectful, kind, and professional with every interaction. We held our wedding ceremony in Kay Chapel, which is a nondenominational chapel now owned by the hotel. It was beautiful. We then had our cocktail hour in the Thames Room and our reception in Bellevue Ballroom. Linda from Hotel Viking answered every question, accommodated every special request, and supported us the whole way through. As I was getting ready to walk down the aisle, I was psyched to have her nearby. All of our guests LOVED the food and expressed that the hotel staff were friendly and helpful. My husband and I had a blast and felt like it was truly our dream wedding. Guests had a blast, too. The bridal party had an enormous suite to get ready in and it allowed the hair and makeup to spread out and still left room for the girls to gather, take photos, eat, drink, and lounge. We definitely recommend Hotel Viking!

Salve Regina University- Ochre Court

  • Raw space
  • Indoor & outdoor
  • Starts at $25,000

Ochre Court holds a rich history, having been built between 1890 and 1895 as the summer residence of Ogden Goelet. It's truly a magnificent location, nestled within the heart of the picturesque Salve Regina University campus, boasting breathtaking views of the Newport Cliff Walk. All ceremonies must take place in our Chapel or off site and you must pick from one of our preferred caterers. If you're interested in taking a tour of Ochre Court firsthand, I would be delighted to arrange a personalized tour for you.

My wife and I had our wedding at Ochre Court over the summer. 3 months later, our guests are still calling and texting us to say it was the best wedding they have ever attended and that Ochre Court was stunning. Laura, Johanna, & Adelina helped it to make such a special day for us. From the tables to the food to all of the help with planning, it was such an amazing place for us to celebrate our marriage and enjoy the day with friends and family. It is the perfect wedding venue on the Cliff Walk with the classic Newport setting!
