We stayed in room 11 and were extremely happy with the room. It was spacious and comfortable. The room was clean and very well appointed with a great view of the Newport Bridge. Room 11 is on the third floor with no elevator so if that is an issue for you I would suggest picking a different one. What really makes the Inn stand out is the staff. They were extremely accommodating and the breakfast each morning was 5 star. We highly recommend a stay at Serenity Inn.

Property's Favorite Review
I have stayed at many B&B’s, this is one of the best. We stayed in room 8, which had beautiful large windows overlooking the street. It was very quiet, and being a clean freak, I can say it was very clean and well kept. The bed was comfortable. An easy walk to the Main Street, we parked at the inn and did not really need to use the car after that. Shawna greeted us with a smile and was a pleasure to work with. Breakfast was great, cinnamon French toast with fresh berries, eggs with chorizo hash, both delicious. I will definitely stay here again.

Just returned from a wonderful stay at serenity inn. Everything was very well done and you can see the care that management put into the inn. Upon arrival you are greeted by the innkeeper Lisa, who is amazing. Check in and out was super easy. Breakfast was delicious. We really appreciated the always available coffee in the pretty breakfast room. Staff working at Breakfast was very warm and competent. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay and will definitely be back.

This was our first experience at a bed & breakfast and it was FANTASTIC! Excellent service, extremely clean, wonderful room with fireplace & bathroom. Centrally located within Newport, so that you can easily walk to most places. Breakfast was amazing as well. Staff was so friendly and accommodating.

Awesome Inn. Lisa was our Innkeeper and she was incredibly hospitable and so nice. The room was fantastic with a fireplace, which was romantic and practical. Lisa provided us maps and discussed some of the great sites to take in. Lisa was so kind the 2nd night we had a snow storm and she bought a couple of pre-cooked chickens and salad fixings that allowed us to stay in and not have to venture into the storm. The location of the Inn is outstanding and walking distance to the warf areas, shops, and restaurants. We did not have to get in the car for much of our stay. I highly recommend this Inn and know you will have an outstanding experience topped off by the amazing breakfasts each morning. I loved waking up knowing we would be surprised with a great breakfast. Have a great time here as you cannot go wrong!

We rented Room 9 with a King Size bed and a convertible sofa. The mattress was amazing! My partner said it was the best mattress she ever slept on. The room was large having the sofa allowed us to easily watch some TV during the February Snow Storm, which shut down Newport shopping. Oh yes, the staff were friendly and efficient including Lisa and all were excellent attending to all our needs. The Inn is centrally located to the shops and wharfs and many churches. A wonderful get-away!

What a lovely place to stay! This beautiful historic home is so tastefully and comfortably decorated. Delicious breakfast served by Maria in the morning was a special treat along with self serve yogurt, fruit juices and coffee. Perfectly located for a short and charming walk to Bowen’s Wharf. Very welcoming and special.

The room's Rh decor is always simplistic sophistication. Maria was incredibly attentive, they made my son & I yummy eggs and Tuscan toast. The room is always clean and it was quiet. I stayed in room 1 this time and loved it. Parking is a HUGE plus and it's within walking distance of Thames!

Arrived Christmas Afternoon after receiving a message We can check in early. When We arrived Maria, the Stylishly dressed Innkeeper greeted Us with a beautiful smile. She offered to assist with our luggage. We gratefully declined. Our luggage was heavy. Okay I overpacked. # 11 (favorite) spacious room with a comfy sofa, many windows with lots of natural light. At night from one of the windows We can see an amazing view of the harbor during day and the during the evening, a spectacular view of the bridge in lights. Day 6 We moved to room #9 located on 2nd floor. It has a beautiful chandelier, floor to ceiling windows. Lots of light, comfy couch to lay on to read a good book, work on puzzles, play boardgames and watch people passing by. We are always "doing" some task or errand. It is refreshing to the body, mind and spirit to just relax. Do nothing. This room has a nice clean mini fridge to store our wine and delicious left overs from dinner. For Guests there is a mini fridge in dining room. Wine glasses are available to drink the nice bottle You purchased from one of the local vineyards. Both rooms the hot showers are delightful, bathrooms are super clean, roomy, have softly scented soaps, fresh towels and a hand dryer. Lots of closet space too. We enjoyed walking to nearby restaurants, the Cliff Walk, wineries, attending church and a bit if shopping. We met awesome, interesting people. Loved our interactions and "Our" time together. You may be warmly greeted by Lisa. She is an Innkeeper who is very knowledgeable about Newport and Narragansett. Maria...there are individuals You meet and can never forget. In all the very best ways that is Maria. Something about her. She is gracious, knowledgeable, unbelievably kind, a great conversationalist who also speaks fluent Italian. She makes You feel comfortable, at ease and strives to always provide excellent hospitality. She is "ama la vita" Love Life in motion! We will return to Newport in April. Will stay at The Outlook, a Sister property. New to Us. Looking forward to it. Audrey & Keith
