This was the perfect place to stay in Newport. It was just far enough outside of the busy downtown area yet walkable to it in the nice fall weather. Being steps away from the cliff walk was great. The staff was so friendly and helpful and the breakfast was delicious. We stayed in the garden suite which had a massive jacuzzi tub with fireplace and tv. We’ll definitely be staying here again!

Lovely B&B Inn within 15 walking distance to areas of interest. Even with the rain for our entire stay, we had a very enjoyable time. Love the gas fireplace provides heat for the room.

This property is a very quaint older home turned into a bed-and-breakfast. We loved the facility and the staff was very nice. The only negative was that unknown to us, our room was on the first floor next to the dining area and parlor meeting rooms and other things so we were woken up by noise very early in the morning. If you were to stay on the second floor, I would give this five stars.

Enjoyed out time in the Cliff Suite! The jetted tub was very appreciated after miles of walking along the Cliff Walk and mansions. We had wonderful sleep under the skylight, especially as it started to drizzle in the night.

Beautiful historic property. Lovely grounds. Comfortable, immaculate room/ bed, gorgeous common areas. We enjoyed a delicious breakfast before heading down the block to the Cliff Walk. Convenient to the cliffside mansions, an easy trip to main shopping and dining areas.

Location close to Cliff Walk. Property is lovely and well maintained. Breakfast was delicious. Did find internet access terribly weak; signal kept dropping. Also, the Governor's Suite would greatly benefit from good bedside lighting so that reading in bed would be an option.
