Samuel Durfee House B&B - Newport

We just returned from a long weekend in Newport, and we spend three nights at this inn. It was absolutely wonderful! The room was very clean, comfortable, attractively decorated. The innkeepers (Heather and Michael) were very gracious, and they served up a wonderful breakfast each morning. We will definitely stay there again the next time we are in […] Newport. Read more

We stayed in the Doris Duke room, which is in the back of the house on the second floor. This is a plus since we did not hear any noise from the street. We also did not hear any noise from the neighboring room. The bed was very comfortable and the bathroom was larger than a typical B&B bathroom. There is a flat screen tv hanging on one wall, but we […] rarely turned it on. The location is perfect access to both Thames and Bellevue. The owners were really terrific and very helpful. We would stay here again. Read more

We spent 3 nights with Mike & Heather. Everything was fantastic to the breakfast, advice on what to see, and of course the B&B. The house has a rich history which Mike shared with us. Great place to stay in Newport and only one block off the main tourist street.

Great location, even greater hosting and the most comfortable bed & pillows I've ever try! Heather is an excellent host, full of smiles and information!

Staying at the Samuel Durfee House was our first time at a Bed and Breakfast and it was a great experience. Heather and Michael were the perfect hosts. We are looking forward to our next year summer vacation to go back. Michael's breakfasts were very impressive and Heather's suggestions on beaches and restaurants were right on. Thank You for a wonderful […] getaway to Newport. Read more

As someone who knows Newport well, this place is right in the heart of things and easy walking to all the hot spots. That being said, it's also tucked away and relaxing. I loved reading on my private balcony! Owners were super nice and welcoming.

Heather and Michael are welcoming hosts. I mentioned before arriving that it was our anniversary and they upgraded our queen room to a king suite, complete with its own entrance! Very comfy bed, and nicely accessorized room. Very good coffee available in the morning and sweet snacks in the afternoon. Gourmet breakfasts were superb. Great location to […] take in all of Newport's attractions. Most were within walking distance. Overall pleasant stay. Read more

Great B&B. Really comfortable room with good furnishings and for a period property the bathrooms are fantastic. The hosts will tell you everything you need to know about the area and provide good breakfasts and afternoon coffee and cookies. Close to shops and restaurants and also walking distance to the mansions (if you don't mind being on your feet […] all day as the mansion themselves are huge), plus there is parking! Would recommend to anyone thinking of staying in the area. Read more

Centrally located, friendly, cozy, clean, comfortable bed, thick towels and don't forget the absolutlely delicious breakfasts. What else can we say? Everything you want in a B&B. We stayed inthe smallest room in the inn. It was comfortable, although if we returned we would ask for one of the other rooms. The stay here made our first visit to Newport […] enjoyable and memorable. Read more

Clean, central location and the breakfast are reason for a return stay. The owners Heather and Michael were very gracious.

Great Newport location. Excellent breakfasts. Plenty of parking. No complaints at all other than that our bathroom could have been a little bigger. Of course it was still much better than the original owner's.

We stayed here for while celebrating our 15th anniversary and had a great time. The room was everything we hoped it would be - beautiful, clean, comfortable, etc. Our hosts were fabulous - they made us a specially decorated mini cake and left it in our room on the night of our anniversary. The house is about a 10-15 minute walk from the main town area, […] but if you walk downhill 1 block to Thames street, there are shops and restaurants all along the way towards the center of town. It is also quite close to several of the large mansions, but you might as well drive to the mansions. I would definitely stay there again. Read more

Heather and Michael were the perfect hosts. From the moment we walked in to the time we left everything was GREAT. Right down the surprise Anniversary Cake! We can't wait to go back!!

Very nice B&B. I would stay there again. The owners are delightful and so helpful with suggestions for activities. The location was so close to very nice restaurants and shops. The breakfasts were soooo yummy.

Genuine Expedia guest review

The innkeepers have turned a 200-year-old house into a delightful, five-room B and B. The location was within walking distance of the main Newport attractions. The rooms were filled with period furniture and were charming. The breakfasts were excellent. The hosts were cordial and informative about local restaurants and sights. The inn was well worth […] the price. I recommend it for a romantic getaway or a small reunion with friends or family. Read more

This place was great. The owners were very professional, courteous, and cook a fantastic breakfast. Our room was just as advertised and it was nice to have a mini fridge in each room (good for keeping that champagne cool). Could not ask for a better location, we walked downtown as you are only a block off the main drag. Also having parking behind the […] house off the street proved very useful. I didn't think much of it at the time but the streets are crammed with parked cars at any hour so that would have been an unneeded stress. The only complaint if there is one is that the bathroom in our room was very small, but that goes with a 200yr old house I guess. I will stay here again when we come back to Newport. Read more

This is our 2nd visit to Samuel Durfee, and we had another great time. It's comfortable, relaxing, quaint, warm, etc. - everything you'd want from a B&B. The innkeepers, Michael & Heather, are extremely nice and helpful - and the breakfast is awesome. Its in a great location, and you are a very short walk from the main strip in Newport where all the […] shops and restaurant are. Likewise, its a good location to explore things like the Cliff Walk, Ocean Drive, etc. I'm sure we'll be back. Read more

Stayed one night in Newport and very pleased I chose this B&B. Clean, comfortable and conveniently located property. Breakfast was plentiful and of good quality, free parking behind the hotel makes your arrival stressless (given that parking is always a hassle in an unknown location). This is a period property which is reflected in the narrow staircase, […] low door heights and sloping floors - all giving a lot of character to the house. Would recommend without any hesitation whatsoever. Read more

We really liked this B&B; we had a cozy room with a little balcony and bathroom. Everything clean and very sweetly decorated. Breakfast was home-made, just as the cookies served in the afternoon: delicious! The house is within walking distance of the centre.There is private parking space behind the B&B.
