No, the OceanCliff Hotel is not located in downtown Newport. It is approximately 15 minutes outside of the downtown area where many hotel accommodations are located. Please be sure to allow yourself ample travel time.

The ceremony will begin promptly at 5:00 PM. Seating will begin at 4:30 PM and we ask that guests be seated no later than 4:45 PM. For those who would like to arrive early, we encourage you to visit the Safari Room bar.

Question

Is the welcome party and wedding handicap accessibile?

Answer

The welcome party will be held on the second floor of The Landing Restaurant and does not have an elevator. Unfortunately, this means the welcome party will not be accessible for guests with mobility needs.
