Our room was very clean, the bed was comfortable, and the staff was friendly. There was ample parking, and the inn is very walkable to downtown Newport. Breakfast was a mixture of hot oatmeal and various home baked goods and some breads. There were always cookies in the dining room in the afternoon. The lemon blueberry cookies were delicious! We’re frequent travelers, and we would stay here again.
We enjoyed our stay at Jailhouse Inn! The staff was very nice and accommodating with thoughtful touches like daily cookies, fresh coffee through the day and nice breakfast options. Our room was large and comfortable. We’d recommend staying here if you’re visiting Newport.
My go to place to stay in Newport. I love the history behind the building. The staff are so kind. The 3 PM cookies are a nice touch and so yummy. Book early as not to miss The Jailhouse Inn which will add to your visit to Newport , RI

Very convenient area the staff was very friendly and helpful. Very clean and I enjoyed the breakfast very much l loved that it had so much history and it was an actual jail, and you will see remnants of the original jailhouse. Would definitely stay again.
Honestly a great stay and very clean. Only thing that could be better is the air conditioning. The rooms have small built in units that barely work, which resulted in our room staying in the mid 70s at all times. After showers, the room would jump up into the 80s. Not a huge deal, or a dealbreaker as the stay was still excellent.
