Fair Street Guest Houses - Newport

definitely worth checking out for your next trip to Newport

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

This is everything a destination city B & B is supposed to be. It truly is in the middle of everything in downtown Newport. Denise is a wonderful innkeeper. Breakfast in particular was just perfect (cooked to order). The room was a little small but you expect that in places like this and I think some of the other rooms we saw were larger. Decor was […] just so. Highly, highly recommend this place! We'll be back... Read more

We absolutely loved the place! The hosts are extremely nice and we will definitely go back there again. The rooms are right smack in the middle of everything, but on a quiet street. Don't forget, this is a bed & breakfast, so your room is like a bedroom in a house. The free breakfast was delicious. We will be back again.

An awesome experience. The atmosphere was so relaxed , the owner was so welcoming and helpful with places to go and things to do, and the location is perfect. Easy to walk most anywhere and just across from the harbor and great restaurants. Parking onsite was a plus. Would definately stay here again and would recommend it highly.

We had a great experience at the Fair Street Guest House. Denise was there to greet us even with out very late arrival. She showed us to our room and offered a few tips for the B&B and the surrounding area. Since I booked the room late, I was expecting to have a shared bathroom, but she had moved us into a room with an attached bathroom. The breakfast […] in the morning was great, and they didnt mind letting us park our car there while we wandered Newport. Last time I visited Newport I stayed on Goat Island, both experiences great in different ways. I would definitely stay at this B&B again Read more

Pleasantly surprised with what we found. The accommodations were cozy, staff congenial and helpful, grounds beautiful, breakfast delicious, and location perfect. Shared bathroom not an issue. Had to wait once in 3 days.

Genuine Expedia guest review

Great hostel and location, we recommend it to everyone.

Genuine Expedia guest review

I must say we were a little nervous about staying at this B&B. However, it turned into a most enjoyable experience. The location was amazing, we were able to walk to everything in town. Our room was large, airy with a private bath. The breakfast was wonderful, we even had a choice of what to order. Denise and Wayne could not have been more accommodating […] and helpful. We will definitely return next year. Read more

The bedroom was small and we had to share a bathroom. None of the doors were marked and I was afraid I,d enter the wrong room. We did have a great homemade breakfast.

Genuine Expedia guest review

Just half a block from Thames St, this B&B is an oasis in the midst of all of the excitement, stores, pubs and marinas of downtown Newport. Hospitality and privacy. Beautiful gardens and a secluded setting for cocktails before dinner.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

Stayed at Fair Street for one night. Room was clean and most acceptable. The breafast was plentiful. The inn keepers were very pleasant and attentive. The Inn is located central to most Newport sites. Would definintiely stay again.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

Room was extremely comfortable and very clean. Lovely flowers throughout the property. Excellent location just off Thames street yet very quiet. Owner made very solid dinner recomendations that were quite affordable given the town. I would definitely stay again.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

we were grateful for the vacancy at the last minute. We really appreciated Wayne and Denise, our hosts.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

Nice location, but if you book through Expedia, it doesn't mention that you may get a shared bathroom outside of your room, something of a surprise if you're not expecting it. The website should be updated as for the price, we would have gone elsewhere. Not all rooms were like this though. Otherwise the place is nice, located in two houses, just up […] the hill from the shops of Newport. Quiet room. Wifi was available but not accessible from our room. Breakfast was very nice, and the common areas were also very nice. The grounds were very pretty with lots of blooming flowers. Read more

Great location. Easy access to wharfs and short drive to beach and cliff walk. The innkeepers were friendly and informative. Great value for the room. It was clean, quiet and quaint. No complaints!

CLEAN CLEAN CLEAN and great breakfast. We had a late arrival and they were very gracious to accept us so late without a complaint. Wayne and Denise are super nice people and gave us all the highlights to not be missed and provided a map w/directions.

My husband and I were thrilled with Fair Street B&B. I read several reviews online, some of which appeared to be lukewarm about the place. But we took the plunge and were so pleased with everything. First off, the location was perfect. We could walk to virtually everything we wanted to see. The parking on site was free, as was the wireless internet […] and the delicious morning breakfasts. And the two guest houses were absolutely adorable, brimming with historic charm. We would definitely return on future visits to Newport! Read more

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

The B&B was ok. Not a great value for the money. The owners would not accommodate our schedule of needing 2 have breakfast @7:30 am instead of 7:45 (due to our work schedule) which I found disappointing. The breakfast was fair compared to other B&Bs & nothing special was provided even though it was a holiday when we stayed. Also did not provide any […] refreshment in the room like bottled water. Would not go back given other choices in Newport Read more

Genuine Expedia guest review

The B&B was very nice, breakfast was excellent and the location can't be beat. We were put into a 3rd floor efficiency with a kitchenette. The bedroom was air conditioned (window unit) but the living room/kitchen area was not. Very hot on the top floor. Fans only in that large area. Our son slept on the futon in the living room and was very hot. Innkeepers […] were helpful. Read more

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

All in all, the hotel was a great experience. Only drawback was that we had to share a bathroom with another couple and it was not mentioned in booking the room. Sharing a bathroom is not my cup of tea. However, the couple of the B&B were wonderful and very gracious. Not sure if I would stay again, only because of sharing the bathroom. The location […] is wonderful!!!!! Read more

Genuine Expedia guest review

Such a perfect little B&B located in the heart of Newport. My boyfriend and I visited for the weekend from NYC to celebrate our anniversary and could not have been happier with our accommodations @ the Fair Street Guest House. Owners were warm and welcoming but gave us space. Room was clean and felt very "homey", renovated bathrooms, and spacious.The […] location of the B&B was perfect -- steps away from the wharf, restaurants, bars and a short walk to the beach. Definitely plan to visit again & highly recommend to all! Read more

Very comfortable & quaint

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

Very friendly hosts, great service and an ideal location in the heart of Newport. The only real down side was the beds--so creaky and uncomfortable that a good night's sleep is impossible. If you're the type that can sleep anywhere, this place would be a superior value.

Genuine Expedia guest review

This was our first time to the Fair Street B&B and it was wonderful. My husband and I went to Newport for a last minute overnight trip two weeks ago and we found this cute little place online and we loved it! The Innkeepers were so kind and helpful and the breakfast was absolutely delicious! Loved the charm the atmosphere of the whole place. We stayed […] in the second house and we ended up having a shared bathroom, which we didn't expect. However, it wasn't bad though because no one else was staying on our floor. Next time we will try and get a room with a private bath perhaps in the main house. Will definitely go back! Read more

Great location, accommodating staff, adequate furnishings for a 1 night business stay...

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

The owners are very friendly and helpful. The location is perfect for newport!! Within walking distance to some of the greatest restaurants and bars. No need to drive anywhere from this place. The rooms were very cute, clean, and well kept. Checking in and out was very easy. A delicious breakfast is offered in the mornings from 8-10, a wide range of […] food, cereal, coffee. Highly recommended! Read more

Genuine Expedia guest review

The owners of this B&B are very nice and helpful. Breakfast was awesome, with choices of fruit, cereal, eggs, bacon, french toast, etc. Since it was a rainy day, they offered everyone umbrellas for their walking trips. While the inn is a bit outdated, it was fine for a couple of nights. The best thing about it is the location. You walk out the door […] and down to the end of the street, and you are right in the middle of everything. And for the prices of hotels and other B&Bs in Newport, its a real steal. Read more

Genuine Expedia guest review

We didn't realize we were sharing a bath, but it worked out ok. Gardens were beautiful and hosts were very nice and attentive. There were several restaurants nearby, so we had many choices for food. The location was good for walking, shopping, seeing the historic sites and people watching.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

A perfect location for exploring Newport. Walking distance to great restaurants & shopping. Easy access to main roads for driving to beaches and mansions. The hosts provide everything you need without unnecessary frills. One of the few places that have rooms with 2 beds for friends traveling together.

Genuine Expedia guest review

The room we stayed in was in the basement,and it smelled like a basement, and it was damp and dank.If we had known it was a basement room we would not have stayed there, and by all means it should be a lot cheaper then the rooms in the rest of the house. We have stayed in many B&B's and this was by far the most disappointing. The host was not very friendly […] either. Read more

We thought it was wonderful. THe hosts were very attentive without being overbearing. Food was delicious the next morning. I would recommend Fair Inn anytime. It is literally at the front door of Newport Center.

Right off of Thames Street. Convenient parking provided. Breakfasts were great!

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

Wonderful Location, Good food wonderful hosts. Bad side was the shared bathroom which was OK for us because relatives were sharing with us, could see a problem if it were with strangers.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

We stayed here on a Sunday. The location was perfect for wandering through the town. Parking on site was very convenient. The complementary breakfast was excellent, with french toast and scrambled eggs cooked to order. My favorite part was the picture perfect backyard area where I was able to relax and smoke a cigar in the evening. Great value!

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

We enjoyed our stay at Fair Street Guest House. It was exactly what we had wanted for our short stay in Newport. The hotel is close to the shopping and sights of town, but the rooms are quiet and ensure a great night's sleep. Breakfast was perfect for getting us ready to tour around the next morning. The hotel's owner was friendly and took his time […] showing us how to get around town when we checked in. We will definitely stay here again! Read more

Perfect location. Warm, inviting, and comfortable bed & breakfast. We loved our room- it was clean, well-decorated and had everything we needed. Breakfast was made-to-order and the owners gave us helpful information about the surrounding sights. We will definitely go back!

Inn keeper, Denise is very hospitable, polite. Breakfast is good.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

Loved our hosts. The food was just great! Outside sitting area with fish pond was very relaxing, and the gardens were luscious.The baby bunnies in the cabbage patch and veggie garden was a snapshot of natures' rule. The location was ideal- very convenient. Sharing a bathroom with an unknown number of other guest couplescan be tricky. With no sink in […] the room, one must wait , then use the facility quickly so as not to inconvenience others. There was no adult -size chair in the room. However, there is a kitchen with full privileges and honor-system cold beverages available. Read more
