It's in walking distance of my restaurants and shops. It's a short drive to many nearby attractions such as the cliff walk. Randy and Lisa were great hosts. We requested to check in early and they were very accommodating. When we arrived Lisa gave us a rundown of the area and suggested a few things to do/places to eat. The room we stayed in was big, clean and comfortable. We were able to control our own air which we appreciated. Breakfast in the morning was wonderful! Coffee and water was readily available at all times. I would definitely stay at the Firehouse Inn again!

We've been to quite a few B&Bs and we loved the hospitality, cleanliness & location of this place!…read moreLoved that they allowed guests to store some leftovers in the fridge upstairs with a microwave to heat it up later. Always fresh water available with coffee, tea, hot chocolate & some biscotti. The ONLY issues we've had with this place was we did find some 2 small hair strands in the shower, but overall, the room was still clean. Showering did make us a LITTLE uncomfortable since there wasn't any curtain or covering on top of the window in the bathroom for privacy since we could see the upstairs window of the house next door, hopefully no one was in that house while we stayed since there was construction being done on that house during the day, so I'm assuming the house was currently unoccupied but even when we ONLY had the shower lights on to shower you could still see straight out the window right at that window next door, so if there was someone home they can definitely get "a show" from our shower. Haha. So I HOPE they put a curtain on top for peace of mind for the guests, once the house next door will be occupied. (See pic of bathroom window). Also sometimes guests don't drive & have to take a train in and pack light (we won't always fit umbrellas) so when it rains... if more than just 2 umbrellas could be available for the guests in case it rains, that would be great and that would show extra care. Actually have 2 umbrellas in each room, would be even better because we thought the 2 umbrellas outside the 1st floor room were the guests' umbrellas. Aside from those little things, we'd definitely visit again and stay here, the decent pricing also made us choose this place over the other choices, by the way!

Our very clean, comfortable, well appointed penthouse suite with awesome amenities was a perfect place for our 5 day visit. The staff, each warm friendly and all seem to enjoy what they do, remembered us daily by name. We were always greeted and offered useful advise and information. Plus we had the best penthouse corner suite with terrace overlooking the town. Delicious chocolate chip cookies at turn-down service every evening plus pure filtered water, juices, Nespresso coffee and sodas included. Plus lovely fragrant Bulgari toiletries in the big bathroom with a separate water closet, nice civilized touch. There's a restaurant on premises, rooftop deck with mini golf putting. We will definitely return next time we visit Newport. Thank you!

The Brenton is a really nice option if you're traveling with a dog. They're very dog-friendly, with…read moredog-friendly rooms, and our pup loved the penthouse and its patio. The lobby restaurant also welcomes dogs and even has a dog menu. We didn't dine here, but our pup loved his rice and veggies. The staff knew our dog's name, which was a nice touch--we joked that they might have taken better care of him than us! The cocktails from Maurice were superb, too. There are a lot of thoughtful amenities throughout the hotel. They provide reusable bottles that you can fill with filtered still or sparkling water, plus complimentary ice cream sandwiches and Italian ice. The minibar has complimentary soda and other non-alcoholic beverages, with alcohol available for purchase. The espresso machine was also pretty good; we ran some water through it before using it and it looked pretty clean. They offer valet parking and EV charging. We asked them to charge our car the next day, but it wasn't charged when we went to pick it up. They did charge it the following day, but because it wasn't done when requested, we had to make an extra stop at a Supercharger on day two. Hopefully just a one-off, but it was inconvenient. Another nice feature is the option to have spa treatments in your room. We had massages and enjoyed being able to relax without leaving the room. There were a few smaller service misses during our stay. Our pillows were lumpy and disappointing the first night, and our room was missing shampoo, although both were replaced promptly once we mentioned them. Turn-down service includes a chocolate chip cookie, but since we're vegan, we asked them not to leave one. Despite that, cookies continued to show up during turn-down. With a relatively small number of rooms, I think better communication between staff and shifts would go a long way toward making the experience feel more personalized. The hotel was very clean overall, but it is definitely on the pricey side. We enjoyed our stay and really appreciated how dog-friendly it was, but I'm not sure the overall experience was worth the price for us. There are so many places to stay in Newport that I'd probably try somewhere else next time.

Stayed for a cold winter weekend in February to get away. This is one of those reviews I hesitate…read moreto write because I don't want to let the cat out of the bag but we had a great experience. There are surely some nice places to stay in Newport but we wanted something a bit more eclectic and unique/boutique. When we saw the pictures of the decor and that each room was decorated uniquely, we were sold. We learned when we arrived that this is operated almost like a bed and breakfast with Will and his partner as the hosts. Check-in is available until 8 p.m. and the hosts live on property and can texted or called with any needs after hours. Each morning a cold gourmet breakfast is provided with takeaway items. Everything is homemade and unique. There are no hot items such as breakfast sandwiches but you'll find poached pears, chia seed pudding, fruit cup, hard boiled eggs, etc. The breakfast items were a bit more sugar-centered than we normally eat, it was a nice treat/calorie splurge. The room was spotlessly clean, as were the common areas. Hand sanitizer was located throughout the hotel and most guests wore masks. Little touches like free bottled water, french presses and coffee, and open cabinets for glasswear. They also had a wine hour with free glasses of wine. There is a big stone firepit with chairs which they will turn on when you want to use it. This was nice for a cigar and a glass of wine in the cold. We stayed in the St. George Suite on the 3rd floor. It had some funky purple wallpaper and a mini-library/gas fireplace in the small sitting room area. It felt hip and eclectic and fun. The windows had water views in the distance which was nice. The room also had a Tivoli radio (unfortunately bluetooth connection was impossible) and a wall mounted tv. A skylight above the bed was nice but ensured an early morning wakeup as there was no way we could find to close it. The bathroom shower was amazing. It was literally almost the size of our bedroom with 3 showerheads and a little thing with jets. It had a skylight so lots of natural light and a small bench. The white marble was classy and the water temperature was good. We loved the shower! The only thing we did not like about the bathroom is that it was right next to the bed which could potentially make things awkward soundwise. The doors on the rooms also did not to much to protect the sounds. We could hear others' conversations clearly and were all 'treated' to quite the 2 a.m. lovemaking performance by our hallway neighbors. That was really the only fault we could find with our stay. Overall, if you are looking for unique and classy, this is a great place to stay. The design elements are unique, the hosts are friendly and thoughtful and it's very comfortable and clean. It's one street's walking distance of the famous Cliffwalk (bring a mask, even though outdoors people wear masks in RI). You can drive or uber to downtown quickly and there are a few restaurants that are walkable. I also will commend the property for not charging the ridiculous 'resort fees' or parking fees that many properties charge. I'd rather know the total price upfront vs. being charged $30 for wifi and newspapers and am glad this hotel doesn't do the resort fee nonsense.
