Bed & breakfast experience

Pros: The comfortable beds, clean room and bathroom, nice fluffy towels, free (full, delicious!) breakfast (with fresh OJ!) and free parking.
Cons: Our room had a shower but no bathtub -- probably no room for one, though. Breakfast seemed crowded and short-staffed.
Location: Cute, colonial street. A short walk from restaurants, bars, art galleries, historic houses, and docks. A short drive from Newport mansions & beaches.
The Admiral Farragut and the Colonial are run by the same small (family?) staff. Everything is well kept and has a historic, colonial feel at these two quaint buildings. When we arrived, our room at the A.F. wasn't ready, so they upgraded us to a similar but larger room at the Colonial. The room was bright, cool, and very comfortable. Staff worked hard to make sure everything was in good order. We ate breakfast at the A.F., which was tasty (and included in the booking), and though the small kitchen seemed overwhelmed by the rush of diners, they hustled to get us our french toast, eggs and bacon. The orange juice tasted fresh-squeezed. The manager let us take our time checking out, too, so we had an extra half hour to relax and get ready after our leisurely breakfast. He has what seems like an odd sense of humor, so came off as gruff at first, but was very, very hospitable once you get past that. Another perk is free parking, and you can walk to all the restaurants in town, and it's a short drive to beaches and mansions.

Great location in Newport

Stayed here on recent work trip. This is a charming New England B&B. I was given an upgraded room upon arrival. They opened the breakfast 30 minutes early for myself and another couple. The location is steps from downtown shopping restaurants and bars.

Great experience!

The inn is charming and beautifully decorated, giving a sense of the history of Newport. The location is extremely convenient, being very close to downtown. All of the staff were wonderful-friendly, welcoming and enjoyable to interact with.
