Staff was amazing and so welcoming and friendly. Big suggestion sign posting as to where main check in is for all buildings... room was a big tired as far as sink as and in need of replacement. We have stayed in Newport many times over 30years - recently having rented the entire Chart House for long weekends over past 5years each fall, so know we know what to expect from Newport Inns...just needs some attention.

Stay was pleasant, older in conditions, in need of repairs and refurbishment. A little shabby, but bed accommodations were very good. Comfortable & crisp clean linens. However not enough Parking spots per rooms; fell short in not including for Check-In possibly not having anywhere to park our vehicle. At times cars may end up on public & very narrow street. It was uneasy not knowing uf using car for day trip would conclude in not being able to park locally to property where I’m staying. Otherwise the breakfast service we found A+ the team there works very well together get the job done always so pleasant & professional. They are an asset to the business. Thank you guys & gal.

This is a fun concept. A quaint B&B in an ideal Newport location. The problem is it’s REALLY old and run down. The toilet was broken and took a ton of force to flush. (They warned us about this as we were checking in.) The window could not be opened because it was covered in plastic. The staff was not unfriendly, but not super helpful either. I think we were supposed to get breakfast each day, but nobody mentioned it after check in. Parking is included, but a nightmare due to limited space.

Fine, not ideal. Several of the staff seemed new (makes sense, as it’s early summer season) and not totally sure what they were doing. I believe some of the other Inns Of Newport properties were nicer than Admiral Farragut, where we stayed, so I would book one of those instead if planning this trip again. Visitors should be aware that bc the properties are converted from homes, no two rooms are alike, nearly all are not ADA accessible and have many steep stairs, not to expect central A/C or coffee maker, fridge, ironing board, etc. in the room. The front desk is in another building and has limited hours. All of this is stated but worth mentioning bc some of the other guests clearly didn’t read that when booking and seemed surprised.

We went there around 12,had to go find someone to check in ,then there was no A/C,he said he would put one in,we came back from lunch,still no A/C, I called the phone number and the girl said your on the list,I asked how long and she kept saying your on the list,not very nice,should have been in the window already. Then we went to go to their complimentary breakfast in the morning which you had to make a reservation, ours was at 8:30,we went at 8:00, told we could'nt eat until our time,the place only had one couple in there. Would not stay there again!

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
