Great place to stay in Newport
Pros:

My favorite place in Newport! Great location, peaceful garden, great staff, beautiful rooms, breakfast with the best pastries. We stayed in 2 different rooms which were both beautiful, very clean with clean bedding, robes and towels. Nicely decorated rooms, also nicely decorated common areas. If you are looking for a decent accommodation in Newport, this is the place. We loved it and will be back!

Great Stay in Newport
Pros:

We visited the Marshall Slocum Inn for Memorial Day Weekend 2026 and had a great stay, the weather wasn't perfect but the Inn was everything and more than we needed! Mark one of the innkeepers met us at check-in and gave us so much information in the area with suggestions from food to what to see, We stayed in the Snuggery Room which was comfy and clean including the spiral staircase which led to the bathroom. We will definitely stay here again when we are in the area.
