Facilities were really clean and comfortable. AAA+ overall and really liked our room we stayed in. Staff were very nice and accommodating. I have a couple cons for transparicy; First: Parking. I knew it wasn’t directly at the site, but never realized it was so far away (5-8 min walk) to the shopping center and thought it was behind or across the street. Really the issue was only during inclement weather, so when it rained we had the expense of Lyft. Second: The usual hotel shower pressure. I get water conservation, but really dislike the pressure where none of the pulse or massage settings even work. Third: No fridge in room and ice machine was broken during our stay and we like to get a few times a day to keep bottled water cold throughout our stay. Staff did offer to get ice in bucket, but we didn’t want to bother them if/when around since not there all day. Would I stay here again, absolutely.

Love this quaint quintessential New England property with very charming decor and tastefully appointed room. The bed was very comfortable and the shower and updated bathroom was wonderful. Parking is off site and a walk but this property is within walking distance of every place you want to be in Newport. The made to order breakfast and cooks were amazing! Would love to come back here soon!

The Outlook Inn exceeded our expectations! While earlier ratings were positive, we did not anticipate the wonderful hospitality of the staff or immaculate cleanliness of the updated property. 1) a wonderfully convenient location; 2) nicely sized rooms; 3) Lovely breakfast specials each day, but with ability to customize. We will return and highly recommend, but if you are seeking opulence or uber amenities of a chain hotel, this is not it. If you want a quiet and lovely and well located independent accommodation, it is.
