Great place to stay — the staff is very friendly and the location can’t be beat. I was only there for one night but my room was perfect, it was clean and had all the amenities I needed.

Having free parking in downtown Newport was great. I felt the room itself was clean and the staff was friendly. I do think this hotel needs some renovating. I understand that it is an older (age and style) hotel but it looks tired. It needs a paint job on the inside. There are old fashioned murals of flowers and garland but then some strange fake patina on top that just makes it look old and not in a charming way. The breakfast served was fine but the room itself had a lot of things on the walls that were dusty. Walls were patched over the paintings. Great location but for the same price we could have had a more modern hotel.

We stayed here in the winter. It was very convenient to everything. The free parking is such a plus. A wonderful continental breakfast in a sunny cozy breakfast area. Our room was very comfortable. Bathroom was appointed nicely. We enjoyed the old world charm!

The location is terrific. That’s why the prices are so high ($525 p night). For the price, I would expect a little more upkeep. The wallpaper was faded and torn, the furniture was scratched up. Pillows were flat. There is no front desk staff after 9 PM. There are a lot of other Inns and hotel rooms around there that are less expensive.

This property would not be a place I would normally stay in, but the LOCATION and the PRICE were great. The Inn was super clean, the shower was super hot and had great pressure, and the breakfast in the morning was simple with bagels, English Muffins, fruit, yogurt, and cereal options. What more could you ask for free? They always say location is the most impt thing so this place it was LOCATION, LOCATION, LOCATION!!!
