    DIRECTIONS

Approximate travel time between Newport and New York City is 3 hours; Newport and Boston is 1½ hours; Newport and Cape Cod is 2½ hours.

    Walking directions to 16 Howard Street from Newport Transportation & Visitor Information Center:
    The Transportation & Visitor Information Center where you will arrive if coming by bus is on America's Cup Avenue. Keeping the water on your right walk about 1/8 mile to where America's Cup feeds into Memorial Drive. Thames St. will be on the right. Take a right on Thames St. Continue straight for about 8 blocks. When you see a sign on a brick wall on your right that says "Vincent's On the Pier" you have reached Howard St. Take a left. (Howard St. is a one way street going towards the waterfront. If driving you will need to take the next left on Pope St., then left on Spring St., then a left on Howard) 16 Howard St. is the large white house with black shutters - third house on the left.

    By Bus to Newport: Bonanza Bus lines services Newport. From Boston take a bus from Bonanza Bus Lines (Peter Pan or Bonanza) from South Station to either Providence or Newport. If to Providence, then change to a Rhode Island Transit Authority (RIPTA) bus (this is the cheapest way to travel on public transportaton between Newport and Boston). From any other location take a bus to Providence then take a Rhode Island Public Transportation Authority (RIPTA) bus to Newport. Follow walking directions above.

    By car to Newport: From points north - 95S, exit 4S (south of Providence), to 138E to Newport. From Cape cod - 6W to 195W, to 24S, to 138E to Newport. From points west - 95N to 4S (just before Providence), to 138E to Newport.

    By Train, then bus to Newport: Take AMTRAK train to Providence. Change to Rhode Island Public Transportation Authority (RIPTA) bus for Newport.

    By air to Providence: The T.F. Green airport outside of Providence, RI, is the closest airport to Newport. The best way to get to the William Gyles Guesthouse from the airport is by a minivan shuttle service run by Cozy Cab. Cost from airport to Newport is $20 one way. For reservation call 1-800-846-1502 if out of the area or 401-846-2500 if in Rhode Island. Ask them to drop you off at the William Gyles Guesthouse in Newport. The people from Cozy Cab may want to drop you off at a hotel near the hostel rather than at the hostel. If so, have them drop you off at the Marriott Hotel in downtown Newport. From there you can get to the hostel by catching a local cab ($4) or by walking 15 minutes along the waterfront (beautiful walk!). This scenario could happen because you are taking an airport "shuttle" which costs $20, not a private taxi, which costs $75. If they drop you off at the hostel when taking the shuttle, thank them profusely because they went out of their way for you and gave you special treatment.

    rasroxo3367 from Brazil stayed here on 29th July 2007
    It would be a good idea to spray the hostel or something. There were tons of cockroaches all around the room.. climbing our luggage, the walls, etc.. it was not comfortable to try to kill them everyday. Everything else was pretty good! Congratulations to the breakfast!

    Nivethika from Australia stayed here on 26th July 2007
    the staff were unavailable most of the time, some didnt even speak english which is inappropriate when running a hostel. it is completely overpriced for the lack of facilities it offers. the only good thing about this hostel was the breakfast. thoroughly disappointed. cockroaches everywhere.

    vegas4112 from Sweden stayed here on 08th July 2007
    It was nice, though the triple beds had a very bad mattress below, but we got some sleep finally. I wouldnt recommend this if you're allerigc cause there seemed to be some mold in the roof of our room. Otherwise it was nice, the cockroaches was friendly.. no really there was none, just a small bug in the room.. :)   Read Owner Comments

    Tomas from Czech Republic stayed here on 20th June 2007
    Great location, friendly personnel. Slightly flaken off, mold in bathroom, but very clean otherwise.

    Monique from Belgium stayed here on 24th June 2007
    I missed the contact with other people and the reason is that there is no place where you can meet the others. In the evening when you come home you are oblied to stay in your room.

    ren_2001 from England stayed here on 15th June 2007
    This is a lovely hostel, however for those travelling on their own and wanting to meet fellow travellers to go out with and party in NYC, then this isn't the place to come. The common area (i.e. kitchen) is small, and a number of the rooms are occupied by families and long term residents, so the traveller atmosphere is lost.

    The Newly Renovated Hotel 17 is a chic budget hotel conveniently located in Downtown New York near the East Village, Gramercy Park, Greenwich Village, and Washington Square Park.

    A few years ago Woody Allen filmed his movie Manhattan Murder Mystery at Hotel 17. Madonna has stayed here, as well as many other celebrity artists, models, and actresses.

    Accommodations in our safe and friendly hotel are perfect for tourists, students, and international travelers on a budget.

    East Village:The East Village is perhaps the 'Social Mecca' of New York City. Much different than Greenwich Village, the East Village offers a more grungy, rock and roll type atmosphere.

    The East Village is home to many major acts of the past such as The Ramones, Lou Reed, The Velvet Underground, as well as many punk bands that still continue to play on. The Fillmore may not be alive anymore, but there are a lot of great clubs such as Coney Island High, CBGB'S, and Irving Plaza. (which is only 3 blocks from Hotel 17)

    NOTE: THE RATE DOES NOT INCLUDE CITY/STATE TAX
    TAX RATE $13.63% PLUS $2 OCC TAX WILL
