Admiral Farragut Inn

It was my first time at this hotel, perfect location, walking distance from the wharf and shopping area. However, the room conditions were far from what I expected. The staff was very nice and helpful.

I had such a wonderful stay at this property. I was traveling alone for my birthday weekend. Room #9 was just perfect for me. The bed and pillows were so comfortable. I slept well both nights I was there. Private, clean bathroom with a shower. (Shower area was a little small) Lovely, made to order breakfast, each morning. Easy walking distance to shops and restaurants. Just perfect.

Staff was awesome

We enjoyed our stay at the Admiral Farragut Inn. It was a little difficult to find since there was no sign. Also, you have to check in at the Cleveland house next-door. That was not indicated anywhere when booking through *******. We ended up calling and it all worked out. The person who checked us in, was very helpful and nice and gave us the lay of the land. We had never been to Newport before and were only there for that one night. She gave us some restaurant recommendations that were a short walk away. Our room on the top floor was lovely. It was a nice king bed and a fairly large room with a skylight, pitched roof, and beams. There was also a nice bathroom, although the shower was a bit small, however, my husband and I are both big people. We ordered our breakfast at check-in for the following morning. It was very tasty. I had eggs, sausage and blueberry pancakes. The server offered orange juice to other tables but not to us. You help yourself to coffee, but all they had was regular, and I only drink decaf. They also only have caffeinated tea. it would’ve been nice to have herbal options. Check out is simple; you drop the key off in the basket in the house next-door. The location could not have been better. We were a block away from the historic Touro synagogue and the next block over from Thames Street, where all the shops and restaurants are along the water. We would definitely stay at the Admiral Farragut Inn again.

It’s in a great location, easy walking distance to a lot of downtown and the bay had a good stay there. People were friendly knowledgeable had the morning breakfast on one of the days I was there was able to get around easily to all the locations I wanted to see this to anyone.

We had a great time! The innkeepers were lovely and accommodating, the room was clean and comfortable. Breakfast was made to order and exactly what I wanted. The houses are historic and older, but that is the charm of the Newport BnB's. Walking distance to everything, very quiet neighborhood, easy access parking. We are definitely going back this summer.

Everything was as advertised and things went great!!

Comared to other Newport B&Bs we have been in, the facilities were a bit more rundown and amenities were basic. Breakfast was made on-site to order, but minimalist standard fare. We were suprised there was no fruit provided. Had to ask and was told only bananas available. On the plus side, bed was comfortable and inn was very convenient to the Thames street shops and dining.

Online reservation process was straightforward. Rick and the staff were super-friendly and super-accommodating! Upgraded to a suite when we arrived for a reasonable rate, and it was very spacious and comfortable. They have tasty, simple breakfast items that were made to order. Each building has parking, but people who don't know how to park made it a challenge (holiday weekend) - it worked out though. Centrally located so you can walk to just about anything in Newport except the mansions. Highly recommend - would definitely stay again!
