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

Call so parking needs can be planned as parking is very limited. In addition, you must go during your breakfast appointed time as seating is also limited (12 seats). It's a historic house so there is original parts so you can't really compare it to a five star hotel, it is what it is and enjoy it. Location is great as it is two streets away from main street just above Brick Alley Resturant. Make reservations ahead for weekend dining. There is no elevator as we were able to carry to third floor our light luggage for two day stay. Shower was hot. House is not sound proof so sounds may be heard from your neighbor hint hint, so we brought a speaker for music. Room does have a tv, no refrigerator so don't have leftovers. Great location. Eat at White Horse and go for a sunset sail all close by.

Excellent, Convenient, well priced.
We went with Newport with friends and stayed in 2 different rooms at the Inns of Newport on Clarke Ave. Couldn't have been nicer. Great management and staff. Super convenient to downtown and every place we visited in our 3+ day stay. They include breakfast, both continental and full breakfast every day/. Just Perfect.

Clean room. Great breakfast. Good service. Parking is limited especially for large vehicles. Its a 200 year old building so as cool as that is, you must expect it not to be modern inside. It was close to everything to see in Newport so it worked well for me.

Was great. Only negative note was the windows in the room were nailed shut and AC was not working. Was not a hot time of the year but the air in the room got a bit stuffy. This was particularly true after a shower as there was not bathroom exhaust fan.

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.

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 Expedia. 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.
