What a lovely boutique hotel . From the moment we arrived to the time we left we were treated like family. Our room overlooked the water, was decorated in a nautical theme and clean. The staff is top-notch! Highly recommend staying here!

Shout out to Giovanna at the front desk for being incredibly gracious, polite and friendly. Great place. We had an excellent stay.

Everything here was phenomenal! Had a comfortable room/suite with two beds. Since I do not share names on public reviews, but want to give the shout out and kudos to the very friendly and lovely front desk lady and manager whom I've spoken to on the phone a week prior to the visit and met her briefly the morning before checkout. They made our stay comfortable and, importantly, made my partner and I feel welcomed. We'll definitely look into checking here at the Harborside Inn again for our next visit to beautiful Newport, Rhode Island. Thank you again!

We have absolutely loved our stay at the Harborside Inn. The team here is so wonderful and go above and beyond to make sure your visit is an excellent one. This was our view upon check-in - the harbor is absolutely beautiful, and the inn is in the perfect location to explore downtown Newport on foot (and a free parking spot if you travel in by car). Our room is so comfortable - filled with fresh plants, modern coastal decor and has a great layout. Housekeeping clearly takes great care too - our room feels so fresh and clean and when we left a note one night for an extra towel or two, this lovely bin of replenished items was left at our door. Thank you to the team at Harborside for making us feel right at home! We will be back for our next Newport vacation.

A great hotel to spend the night! The service here is spectacular and very family friendly! And if you get a good room, you can have a great view of the harbor. AND every morning they have free breakfast and free cookies during the afternoon. Overall a great location but there is a bar next to it that can make a bit of noise late into the night, and the hotel can be a bit of a hassle to find at first. Overall, a great experience.Nearby activities: Lots of resturants and activities nearby to have fun.

Fantastic little Inn right in the heart of downtown Newport, with views over the active harbor. Jane at the front desk was enthusiastic and incredibly helpful. The breakfast/brunch area on the second floor is such a delight. Fresh cookies every day!

We enjoyed our stay and it was nice for a quick weekend getaway. If you want to be right on Thames and in a convenient location then it's nice. The staff were all very kind and our room was clean. One thing to definitely keep in mind is the bar directly under the hotel, which was quite loud. The thick door drowns out quite a bit of sound and they provide a noise machine so we still slept soundly, but just something to keep in mind if you're a light sleeper. Our only other complaint was the parking situation. You're guaranteed a spot but ultimately you're still circling to get a spot in the designated area or you have to exit your car to move a cone. Ultimately, though, these things were merely inconveniences and did not ruin our stay. I would still recommend Harboside Inn for those needing a decent price in the main area of Newport.

Very friendly and helpful staff. A really good location with free parking (for each room). Breakfast was a decent spread and the cookies and tea in the afternoon were a great. The kids loved the lofted rooms (which can comfortably fit a family of 6. Highly recommended!

We were treated with the most excellent service. Accommodations were clean and comfortable. We came during early season, mid-April so prices were competitive!Will complete review after checkout!

Love everything about this place! Wonderful location, cozy and clean accommodations, and the friendliest staff! The manager, Jane, even got my daughter a treat and a card as she knew we were celebrating my daughter's 14th birthday. The sweetest ?

Lovely Inn on the waterfront in Newport. Warm, cozy, comfortable and beautiful view of the harbor from the Harbor View room (common area). Staff so friendly, you get to know them...Thank you Jane, Sarah, Jennifer our housekeeper and all the staff. Wonderful and Romantic stay.

Stayed here with my wife, cousins and their spouses. Great location in the heart of the wharf area and walkable to just about everything downtown. The views from the harbor side balconies were beautiful and it was a pleasure to wake up to that tableau every morning. There was also a nice sized common room that we used to play cards in the evenings. Inconsistent service from the staff, but excellent chocolate chip cookies. The hotel needs a significant renovation, however. The carpeting and furniture are quite rundown, as is the HVAC system that sounds like a truck every time it turns on. Our bathroom was straight out of a motel. No room cleaning or refreshing, and a very weird system for getting new towels. Great location but for the price I don't think we would stay here again.

There were only two places that stood out in a positive way on our New England vacation, and this was definitely one of them. We had an awesome view of the harbor. The harbor is full of boats and yachts. The harbor has yachts that could swallow other yachts. The staff and the front desk were very, very helpful and pleasant. The room was spacious, clean, and modern. The Inn itself is located ideally for tourist attractions. The boat tours, ferry and such, are located within a few hundred feet of the Inn. The room came with one parking spot, which is a big deal in that crowded area.

Just left Harborside Inn and had to leave them a review immediately. First of all: freshly baked cookies everyday after lunch time? YES. They were amazing. Other reasons I liked this inn: 1. Close to almost everything and you can walk about 10 minutes to get on the free trolley to the breakers mansion and end of the cliff walk (rejects beach) 2. They don't come in your room unless asked, if you want fresh towels you simply just place the dirties outside your room and they bring you fresh ones in a bag 3. The view was very nice! 4. The staff was awesome. Specifically Alan who is a local and gave us some amazing tips 5. Equipped with a mini fridge 6. Clean, spacious rooms 7. Free continental breakfast each morning Highly recommend a stay here! It's nothing fancy but it's perfect if you are looking for clean and easy accommodations close to the restaurants and such.

We really enjoyed our stay at the Harborside Inn! The location is great for going out and about in town, and there was reserved parking out front of the inn. It was nice to know we had a spot saved when we drove to see the Newport Mansions (10 mins away). Staff was extremely warm and friendly. Our room was very cozy; comfy bed with understated nautical decor. We had a little balcony overlooking the harbor, which was great for having coffee or a glass of wine as we looked at the ships. We really appreciated the fresh, homemade cookies in the lobby each afternoon. We felt very welcomed in this cozy little B&B! Made for a special weekend away!
