National Hotel | Hotel in Block Island, Rhode Island

National Hotel is a historic hotel in New Shoreham on Block Island, with a setting that puts you close to the historic Southeast Lighthouse, local restaurants, art galleries, and independent shops. The property sits within an easygoing island rhythm, but the experience stays grounded in the essentials that matter most for a comfortable stay: an on-site restaurant, a bar, internet, air conditioning, and spaces to pause with a view. The large porch is a defining part of the stay, giving you a relaxed place to sit back and take in the ocean outlook. Inside, the atmosphere is practical and welcoming, with guest services that support a smooth stay and dining at the Tap & Grill, where fresh seafood is part of the menu. Some spaces also include balcony or terrace access where available, adding another way to enjoy the setting.
