Don't remember exactly when, maybe 15 years ago, I remember staying at new Hilton just north of Newport. I believe it was called the Agate Beach Hilton. Didn't stay a Hilton long though, after a while I think they went independent. I just did a search and now it's a Best Western.
I remember when it was built it was considered big for the area and somewhat off the beaten path. Too bad it didn’t stay in the Hilton family; now with HH, it probably would be a pretty popular place to earn and redeem points.
Maybe someone else remembers this property a little better?
