Spent a few days in Newburyport recently. The Compass Rose Inn is situated in the heart of town allowing you to park and walk to many stores and restaurants during your stay. So many nice places to dine within walking distance. Quiet, large rooms, excellent breakfast and well maintained. The innkeeper Kim was friendly, helpful and and accommodating . She is a great asset to this establishment. This is a great place to stay if you travel to that area of MA.Rooms: Large, quiet, well maintained.Walkability: Easy walk to restaurants and stores.

Very nice hotel in the heart of Newburyport. The convenience was key for us. It was built less then twenty years ago but was made trying to capture the ambience of something older and I think they succeeded. Very nice big rooms divided into a bedroom and a sitting room. Nice décor and beautiful moldings throughout. We were disappointed to find out that we could not use the fireplace until November because the flues had not been opened. It seemed like an easy fix so that was a bummer. The Inn Keeper, Kim, was new but very personable and really tried to make the experience nice. The breakfast was disappointing and more like a Marriott Courtyard than an expensive B&B. There was only one tiny homemade dish that wasn't very good. The same set-up was there both mornings we visited. If they can work on their breakfast a little, this could be a much better place. I would give them a 4.5 because of that if I could but despite that, we would return.

Great place for a quiet stay! Close to everything. Incredibly comfortable. (We were surprised by the heated towel bars.) Run by a nice couple who serve fantastic coffee and breakfast. We will visit again!

Wow!! We came for a family overnighter and quickly decided we wanted to comeback for a longer stay. The inn is on a side street off of the main road which makes walking to the main road (with tons of restaurants and coffee shops etc) easy and delightful. The innkeepers were warm, accommodating, and accessible. The breakfast in the morning was delicious and I love that they had freshly brewed coffee as well as keurig coffee. The house itself is just beautiful and the rooms feel so luxurious. I just finished the show “Bridgerton” and I felt like I was staying in a room at one of the nobility’s great houses. The bed was comfortable and the bathroom was large. Definitely book here if you are coming to Newburyport.

Classy and beautiful, great location. We stayed for two nights over Labor Day and really enjoyed the Inn. The room was well appointed, ac worked well. There was a wedding party there that weekend but the owners gave us a forewarning and also offered to accommodate us with breakfast elsewhere if needed. Luckily the wedding party was friendly and there was no need for that. The bed was comfortable, bathroom was huge. The location was nicely tucked away but right at the edge of downtown. Parking was easy and check in and checkout a breeze. Definitely recommend if you are looking for a quiet few nights of R&R!

The Compass Rose Inn was a great choice for spending a night in Newburyport after attending a wedding. A little pricier than I normally go for, but the location and style were top notch. It was right down the street from shops, restaurants, coffee shops, and the waterfront. We loved being able to walk to dinner and not have to deal with driving and parking.The Inn itself is very clean and beautiful. We stayed in a suite, which had a small sitting room, beautiful French doors to the bedroom, a nice bathroom with a deep soaking tub, and air-conditioning controlled in-room. Everything you'd need for a comfortable stay.Breakfast was family-style and delicious. In addition to a small selection of muffins/bagels/tea breads, they offered cereals and yogurts or made-to-order cinnamon French toast. Overall great stay, you won't regret booking here.

The inn is set back so it literally looks like your walking into a fairytale! The inn itself is immaculate. The room we rented was spotless like the rest of the inn. Entry room has Fireplace, French doors lead into the bedroom & a third galley room with a sink, fridge, air conditioner, coffee maker. Full bathroom with deep tub/shower, toilet & porcelain sink. Had better sleep on their king bed than mine at home! We go away every year for our anniversary & this was by far our favorite getaway!
