    Very nice time and stay

  • Engine customer Aug 2026

    Our stay was lovely. The owner and manager made us feel very welcome. The location and ambience were just what we needed.

    To help other guests understand a quirk: While I booked the Admiral Farragut Inn, this booking is managed by the Inns of Newport, and they may put you in another of their five houses. I was upgraded. My Inn was called Wynstone and was a few blocks down from the main 27 Clarke Street address where breakfast is served. It worked out great.

    Check in was a little chaotic, but staff handled it well. Delicious breakfast!

  • Engine customer Aug 2026

    Was within walking distance to BOWENS Warf as well as close proximity to the Cliff Walk and the Mansions. The staff was very friendly and breakfast was awsome. The gentleman in the the office was quite comical and made the stay more family friendly.

    I chose this Inn because every other place in Newport was sold out (July 4th weekend). Good: The Inn was within walking distance to Bannister & Bowen Wharfs. Not so good: The tiny room was quite pricey.

    Rick was amazing! The entire staff was very attentive and go out of their way to accommodate the guest. Jane was great!

    Connection to internet requires call to front desk as info on room door is incorrect. Upon arrival, I found no staff in the building. Had to call the inn to find out that registration was in the building next door.

    If you are looking to stay near Bowman’s Warf this is the perfect place. It’s quaint, quiet and the breakfast is delicious! They were so helpful and friendly and I will be returning! This Inn is in walking distance to the free trolley service and shopping.

    There was confusion with our check-in, provided wrong room. Thanks to the staff who noticed the error early. Rooms are basic, be sure to get a king bed room. The others, such as top floor, are extremely small. Fireplace was not operable in our room. TVs are haphazardly mounted, wires everywhere, screens on angles. Closet was doubling as a storage space in our room, with 4 endow air conditioning units pulled up. Again, great location to the warf area, walking distance to everything downtown. Off street parking was nice, particularly as you head into the busy summer months.

    Not a palace by any stretch of the imagination- location , staff, cleanliness, bed, all excellent!

  • Engine customer Mar 2026

    It is an old build and that’s the charm. Staff was great and the amenities were perfect. Bed was comfortable and appointments we great. One block from upper Thames street and walking distance to everywhere.

    This is in a good location, within walking distance to the harbor and the mansions. This was bad. If you look at the pictures below, the first one was as advertised and the second one is the real deal. Let's start with comfort. Bed was two twins with box springs pushed together and what appeared to be a futon draped over the top. A tent would have likely been more comfortable. The floor where I tried to sleep was marginally better. We didn't take a picture of the possessed window AC unit that we had zero control of. It was set at 69 but the room was easily at 80 degrees. The third picture is where the TV was supposed to be. We never were able to connect to wifi and this was a complaint of several guests we ran into, just very bad. Now let's go to cleanliness. Dirty. Head band on the floor behind the door - do they even clean the rooms? The bathroom pictures and especially the sink base and inside give you an idea of just how bad this is. Lastly, the walls/door had no acoustical privacy. We had an individual return to his room at 2:40am and talked in his room for over 4 hours. Other guests were coming out of their rooms to tell him to be quiet to no avail. No phone in the room or emergency contact. Just a ghost town.

    Quaint. Loved that we stayed in historic area. The made to order breakfast was good! We are walking distance to downtown Newport, shops, the docks and so many restaurants! Just wish they had coffee available for early risers. Though they did have tea.

  • Engine customer Dec 2025

    Convenient parking steps away from entramce. Fresh cooked breakfast items of my choosing was a nice change from the premade breakfasts of other hotels.

  • Engine customer Dec 2025

    Location. The manager was nasty. The room smelled like vomit.

  • Engine customer Nov 2025

    The staff was exceptional and the breakfast was great. The were very accommodating with the parking.

  • Engine customer Oct 2025

    Cozy, historic, friendly, walking distance from my favorite spots to visit in Newport... Va Benne!

    Tight spaces to navigate.
