This a great location in Newport. It is such a walkable city and this location is VERY walkable for restaurants, sight-seeing and just exploring! A nice breakfast was included with our reservation and was made to order. No self-serve room with numerous chafing dishes of dried out scrambled eggs, super greasy bacon and toasters or waffle irons that you operate yourself.
Our bed was very comfortable and the room charming!
The staff is pleasant and very accommodating.

This was my first time at Admiral Farragut Inn. The location is prime and an easy stroll to Thames St.The manager, Rick was very nice and check-in was easy. I feel like the pictures of the rooms did not add up to what my room appeared to be. The room was clean without any issues. I was in the basement. There was no heat, but rather a Humidity machine. There was no fridge in my room, but an old fridge outside and it was very icky inside. I think for the price it was not worth it. I declined the breakfast because I didn’t feel the Inn was to my standard. I believe there are other properties owned by the owner so perhaps they may be better, but not the ones at 31 Clarke St.

We were extremely satisfied with our stay at the Farragut. The staff couldn’t be more helpful!! Everything we needed they were right there to accommodate us. I would highly recommend this B&B if you you just want to relax and the shopping was in walking distance. I give it a A

Call so parking needs can be planned as parking is very limited. In addition, you must go during your breakfast appointed time as seating is also limited (12 seats). It's a historic house so there is original parts so you can't really compare it to a five star hotel, it is what it is and enjoy it. Location is great as it is two streets away from main street just above Brick Alley Resturant. Make reservations ahead for weekend dining. There is no elevator as we were able to carry to third floor our light luggage for two day stay. Shower was hot. House is not sound proof so sounds may be heard from your neighbor hint hint, so we brought a speaker for music. Room does have a tv, no refrigerator so don't have leftovers. Great location. Eat at White Horse and go for a sunset sail all close by.

Our visit to Newport was amazing! We were able to see many of the sights suggested by the staff and enjoyed it all. The staff was very welcoming and accommodating to meet our needs and we would definitely recommend to others. The location was centrally located with perfect walking accessibility.

Excellent, Convenient, well priced.
We went with Newport with friends and stayed in 2 different rooms at the Inns of Newport on Clarke Ave. Couldn't have been nicer. Great management and staff. Super convenient to downtown and every place we visited in our 3+ day stay. They include breakfast, both continental and full breakfast every day/. Just Perfect.

Clean room. Great breakfast. Good service. Parking is limited especially for large vehicles. Its a 200 year old building so as cool as that is, you must expect it not to be modern inside. It was close to everything to see in Newport so it worked well for me.

Was great. Only negative note was the windows in the room were nailed shut and AC was not working. Was not a hot time of the year but the air in the room got a bit stuffy. This was particularly true after a shower as there was not bathroom exhaust fan.

It was my first time at this hotel, perfect location, walking distance from the wharf and shopping area. However, the room conditions were far from what I expected. The staff was very nice and helpful.
