Clean and modern rooms, bigger than expected. Amazing location, walkable to everything you could want. The free breakfast each morning was a huge highlight. Freshly cooked meal and different options each day. Wonderful stay, highly recommend
The Outlook Inn was quaint and located close to the downtown area, but far enough away that it was quiet. The delicious breakfasts varied each morning and were cooked and served to each guest. The staff couldn’t do enough to make our stay enjoyable!
I cannot say enough good things about this property. The location is key right near the water area shopping of Bowen wharf. We checked in and Ashlee gave us a ton of recommendations and was literally the nicest person ever. So friendly and just so nice. Parking is a little ways down the street, but you can unload your bags and then go parking and go straight to shopping or dining. There’s a quaint little rooftop that you can sit on and enjoy your breakfast or even something you brought back for dinner. The rooms are so pretty and the colors are so calming and coastal like. Definitely would stay there again in a heartbeat.
This Inn is very well located as everything is in walking distance. It was very clean and the staff was so nice and welcoming. They provide parking at a lot close by. Thank you to Selena and her staff for the great breakfasts and smiles everyday.
We had a wonderful stay here. The rooms are super clean and newly updated. Very safe and quiet neighborhood at night. The innkeeper does a great job and is very friendly. The free breakfast was awesome. The only downfall is the parking, which is offsite.
Lovely unique inn in the centre of Newport. Staff friendly and very helpful. Breakfast homemade and delicious. Stayed in the 2 bedroom suite. Both rooms had fantastic ensuite bathrooms. Comfy beds and amazing air con. Higy recommend.
Everything about our stay was great. Easy check-in, clean and bright room, great breakfast and friendly staff. Location was excellent as well as complimentary parking near by
Staff was professional & approachable. They went out of their way to make sure we had a wonderful stay. The inn was well kept & clean; I would highly recommend it!
Would definitely recommend this property. The Inn Keeper was amazing, rooms newly renovated and clean, great location, breakfast was phenomenal. Walking distance to shopping and restaurants.
Stayed in room 8. It was a great B&B, with a comfortable bed and nice bathroom. The breakfast each morning was fantastic. They provide parking at a nearby parking lot, which is amazing because parking in Newport is expensive and hard to find. The best part was the location. Such a short walk to Bowman's Wharf and the rest of Thames street.
Great location for points of interest and restaurants. Morning complementary breakfast was amazing. The staff made sure we were well informed and provided us with useful information to get the most out of our stay. We would highly recommend this location and will make plans to return in the near future.
