Important Notes on Pricing:
Pricing is reviewed and adjusted annually based on market demand, local events, and operating costs. Newport is a highly seasonal market, and peak summer weekends—especially July and August—command premium rates.
The averages above are provided as a general guideline. Final contracted rates will be confirmed at the time of booking and will vary depending on specific dates, demand, and availability.
Contracts are typically issued beginning in November and remain valid for 7 days.
Terms & Deposit
Full hotel buyouts are required for weddings March through December. Partial room blocks are available for January and February dates only.
For January and February partial blocks, Pelham Court Hotel may sell any rooms not included in your block.
A non-refundable $250 administrative fee and a $1,500 guarantee deposit are due when the agreement is signed. If the 80% guarantee is met, the deposit is credited to the point of contact’s own reservation.
Your personalized agreement and rates are sent by email. You can preview the terms below.
