Mill Street Inn checks all the boxes for a great place to stay in Newport! The location is great. It's only a 5 minute walk to restaurants and shopping on Thames street as well as Bowens Wharf where all the action is. Less than 10 minute walk to International Tennis Hall of Fame and the trolley which will take you to the mansions. The staff is all very friendly, and there are lots of nice touches. You are welcomed with a bag of treats from local vendors, there's afternoon sangria, continental breakfast delivered to your door (a must to enjoy on rooftop!), and comfy beds with a mattress topper. They provide robes and slippers like a luxury hotel, but at a reasonable price for Newport. And it is very nice to have a suite--an extra sitting room with a couch and dining table to spread out. Limited free parking, but great if you can grab a spot. Highly recommended! A++

Such a great stay at the Mill Street Inn. Beautiful studio suite with comfortable bed and nice sitting area. We enjoyed the morning breakfasts. Staff was exceptional and the free sangria was a nice touch. Cannot beat the location being 1 block from all the wharf action and all the Newport shops. We will be back. I highly recommend the Mill Street Inn. Do not forget to check out the root top. Nice place to relax, drink or eat.

Mill Street Inn was the perfect place for our stay in Newport Beach. The room was beautifully decorated , clean and comfortable. Loved the breakfast brought to your room. Delicious! You can eat in your room or if the weather is good up on the roof deck.|Special thanks to Lori at the front desk for her recommendations. Especially for the restaurant with wonderful clam chowder. If we return in the future we’ll be staying here.

Mill St Inn's staff were all excellent and friendly. Laurie in particular was generous with her time and her extensive knowledge of Newport. The welcome pack was a lovely treat. Ordering breakfast was novel, with great choices and fresh, delicious, offerings - which were not run of the mill. Our room was spacious, airy and comfortable. Great tea and coffee making facilities (including a tea kettle!). Our favourite part was the roof terrace. Perfect for breakfast, and an evening glass of wine. We have already recommended Mill St Inn to family and friends!

10/10 B&B spot. The location is perfect (walking distance to all the nice restaurants and bars), the beds are very comfortable, the breakfast is delicious and fresh. They also have a nice rooftop area to hangout, eat your breakfast and enjoy nice views. Most importantly, the staff is AMAZING. Lori was great! She is very nice, accomodating, and knowledgeable of the area to help you with any questions you have. Chelsey was also very friendly. Thank you to the team at Mill Street Inn for a wonderful experience. my fiance and I will definitely be back!

I could not have been happier with my stay at the Mill Street Inn. The location is a short, few minutes of walking distance from most of the bars, restaurants, and shops in Newport. My room was spotless, the staff was extremely friendly, and the breakfast service made for a very relaxing stay. I highly recommend choosing the apartment style room because of the private balcony, which I used every morning while enjoying my coffee and the beautiful sights and sounds of the wharf in the distance. I will be looking to the Mill Street Inn for any future visits to Newport.

What a great team of service oriented individuals! Thank you Alexander, Chelsea, Lori, and the mature gentleman that helped with my bags upon arrival. You all made my stay welcoming and fun! The suite is large, beds and pillows are heavenly, rain shower and toiletries are luxurious. You’re a block and a half from the waterfront and from all transportation. Park your car (no charge for their lot) and you won’t need it the rest of the trip. I enjoyed bringing the continental breakfast on the rooftop and storing items that I did not finish in the room fridge. The gym is on the first floor and has the basics for a nice workout. This Inn checks all the boxes. Clean and smells fresh. Great Sangria! Definitely grab a lobster roll and clam chowder down the street at Newport Chowder Company (I preferred it over Luke’s). Enjoy Newport!

This place doesn’t miss. We are extremely upscale resort only when we travel and we gave this spot a chance after being referred from a friend and all I can say is don’t hesitate to book. From the spacious room itself to the comfort of the bed and general vibe created, we will 100% be back. You can trust our feedback. We brought two children under two with us and still had more than enough room. Thank you so much to Jamie and her team

Mill Street Inn is located on an idyllic street in an historic area lined with bricked sidewalks and antique homes. Parking is tight, but there is street parking if there isn't enough room. Staff were friendly and helpful at check-in, where they also offer you flavored water and sangria. Guests receive a goodie bag of local treats to welcome them, as well. The hotel is only two stories, which is good because there are no elevators. Stairs to the second story are open-backed (makes me a little nervous, but that's my own fear--there's nothing wrong with them). Our room was spacious, except for the bathroom, which looked like an after-thought as far as fitting all fixtures in there. Definitely only one person at a time. There was so much lovely light in our room (211). The Nespresso machine worked well and there was even an electric tea kettle. The inn provides a carafe of water in the room--the water smelled of chlorine. I expect that's just the local water, but keep that in mind. We had a lovely view of sunset from the room. In the warmer months, there's also a rooftop area (closed off in December). The bed was very firm, even with the mattress topper. That said, the pillows were plush and comfortable. You fill out a card for continental breakfast delivered to your room. All you do is leave it on your door before midnight and someone brings it to you at your chosen time in the morning. Everything was delicious and the serving sizes were ample. Check-out was super easy. Everyone we dealt with was cheery and pleasant. We will return.

My wife and I were invited to a close friend's daughters wedding in Newport this weekend. Having to travel to Newport from out of state we needed to book accommodations near the venue. We read online reviews and looked at pictures and info about Mill Street Inn and decided to give it a try. The Inn is located in the heart of downtown near the wharf, shopping, restaurants and train station. It occupies an old mill building. There are both single floor units and 2 story units with private roof top decks. We chose a single floor unit because we were just staying the 1 night and were not planning on being in the room much. We arrived and were relieved to find the Inn has a private parking lot. The lot isn't big but if you have traveled to Newport before you will understand how convenient it is to have off street free parking. We were greated by 2 wonderful reception hosts. They were not only friendly but very helpful. Due to the historic nature of the property an elevator was not allowed so its stairs only. It's only 2 floors but staff offered to carry our bags if needed. We were given a welcome bag of locally sourced goodies, instructed how to order our complimentary breakfast and given directions to locate the rooftop deck. We made our way to our room and we were pleasantly surprised at how nice it was. There are exposed brick walls and huge beams from the original mill along with a vaulted ceiling our the seating area. The furniture was tasteful and all the room appointments were top notch. From the nespresso coffee maker, mini fridge and flat screen TV to the large walk in shower with rain shower head, we found the room comfortably and very clean. We quickly left our bags and made our way to the rooftop deck to enjoy the views. There is plenty of seating on it and you get views of the Newport Bridge and a bit of the harbor. It was lovely. We went back to our room and followed instructions to order our breakfast. They provided a menu and each guest has a variety of choices. We were very pleasantly surprised to see a great number of items we would normally choose. On the front of the menu there is a space to put the time you want your breakfast to arrive. We had plenty of room prepare for the wedding and getting an Uber pickup in front of hotel was simple. The wedding was at Regatta Place on little goat Island so the hotel was ideally located. When we got back after the event we were happy to find the hotel quiet. We opened goodie bag and enjoyed the kettle corn, chocolates and pretzels. We settled in for a great night's sleep. The next morning at the selected time we heard a discreet knock on our door and our breakfast had arrived. Everything provided was fresh and delicious. We were very happy. The only thing that I can complain about is that we only had 1 night to enjoy the pampering of this unique property. We discussed coming back to spend a nice long weekend in the fall and book one of the rooms with a fireplace. We are looking forward to it.

A very well kept hotel in the heart of Newport . In the middle of the historic hill neighborhood and very walkable . We stayed there last week, it was our first time to Newport . The hotel had good reviews and was decently priced and great location . The room is spacious there is a downtstairs " living room " with a sofa and TV and upstairs is the bedroom . It is nicely updated and was clean . Breakfast is included . It is a small menu of fruit , yogurt. , coffee or tea and you can get a pastry / croissant but it was enough and everything was fresh ! The front desk staff were all awesome and gave great recommendations. In addition to being welcoming and friendly Lori in particular was very sweet and attentive . They also had sangria downstairs which I loved . I definitely recommend this place to all newcomers looking to stay at Newport !

So we ended up in what was called the honeymoon suite. This place is gorgeous. They give you coffee in your room with bottled water. Upon arrival you receive a welcome gift with some delicious chocolates. You also receive treats every day during your stay. The continental breakfast was an unexpected treat. They simply leave you a card at your door. You check off what you would like and it's at your doorstep the next morning. One of the cleanest places I have ever stayed at. The staff is beyond helpful if there was a downfall perhaps that there are no elevators, didn't bother us. Every afternoon in the waiting area there is sangria and flavored fruit water. Boardgames should you choose to borrow them. Will definitely be coming back here again. The location by the way is perfection.

No wonder this place gets such great reviews on pretty much all forums. Mill Street Inn was a pleasure to stay at. Location - superb. We could walk to the waterfront, go out for dinner, do shopping etc. without ever stepping foot in a car. Can't beat the location. Service - staff are so polite and friendly. They gave us recommendations on places to eat and some of the stuff that was going on in Newport. Facility - they have on site parking which was great. The main entrance area is tastefully decorated with lots of natural lighting, which I loved. There's even a nespresso machine for all the coffee lovers out there. Our room was lovely. Very spacious, just the right amount of decor without feeling overwhelmed. We loved the fact that they left us little snacks (brownie, fudge, fruit leather) in a welcome bag. We appreciated the little touches! My only negative was that our bathroom was on the smaller side. It was hard to open the door when another person was inside and having more than 1 person in there feels pretty congested. The shampoo/conditioner/body wash were luxe! Breakfast is included and we got some delicious almond croissant, fruit cup and granola with yoghurt. We had a lovely time and I would not hesitate to recommend Mill St. Inn to anyone.

We stayed four nights for our anniversary over the first weekend of June. In the plus column: + Complementary breakfast delivered to the room. + Complementary (very good) sangria in the afternoons. + Excellent location with great walkability to everything. + Very quiet. + The private rooftop decks in the townhouse suites are perfect for enjoying the sunset with a bottle of wine. + TERRIFIC front-desk staff. In particular, Hunter pointed us to the best meal we had (at Scales & Shells), and Lori saved us from starting the Cliff Walk in the wrong place due to a temporary closure. Mostly minor quibbles in the minus column: - The rooms are a bit dated (though very clean). - There was a lot of early-morning light in the sleeping area, and no way to get rid of it. - We couldn't get the fireplace in our room to work, though we must allow for the possibility that we are incompetent. - I wouldn't have hated a power source on my side of the bed, or an extra rack in the bathroom for hanging towels. Overall, though, a terrific stay and we'd definitely return.

Located just a block and a half away from Bowen's Wharf on Mill street right off of Thames Street, the Mill Street Inn is an old brick industrial building in the heart of historic Newport. It offers luxury accommodations, and a friendly staff that is all about making your stay a good one. The welcome bag was such a nice touch when I checked in, a fresh baked blondie, cashew nuts and salt water taffy. It's walking distance to everything downtown, restaurants, shops, and the harbor for boat tours and sailing. They also offer free parking, so once I arrived, I never had to use my car which was super convenient. However as much as I loved eating on the private patio that overlooked the harbor, the seagulls had surrounded me after about 10 minutes and they are not shy about attempting to share your dinner. Best to just use the patio for cocktails only. They also offer a nice breakfast that is included with your stay in the morning. Pastries, yogurt and granola, fresh fruit salad, cold brew coffee, fresh pressed juices, etc. The only reasons for not giving it five stars were that for the cost, I expected it to be a little larger, and there were some minor issues such as the mini fridge humming a high pitch annoying sound that made it hard to relax while downstairs watching tv, and the upstairs bedroom air conditioning unit had a large bright light on it that illuminated the room making it a little hard to sleep. Overall the experience was lovely and I would definitely stay there again, but I'd probably opt for a less expensive room.

Lovely accommodation that tries very hard to please you. BUT If you are sound sensitive then this place may not be for you. Being an older building there seems to be a soundproofing issue. The bedroom in our suite had no other room behind it and we were able to close the bedroom door so we had a quiet night's sleep. However, in the sitting room area, noises such as our neighbor's entire loud conference call, the dog barking across the hall (which was infrequent and not really a problem) Leads me to suggest asking about the location of your room before booking. Sorry, I have to add the bed was lumpy and by the second night my back was miserable and I do not have back issues. The comforter is very heavy and hot so without I was left with a sheet and heavy blanket. I just really can not recommend this place. I would be very disappointed if someone recommended it to me.

We came to the Mill Street Inn for a November getaway to celebrate our anniversary, and it was the best decision we could have made. From the moment we walked in, we were blown away by the friendliness of the staff, the COVID safety measures, and location. We stayed in one of the two-floor suites that also had a little deck area that overlooked the roofdeck (which is also an AMAZING space with water views). The room was spacious, the fireplace was another great touched (and kicked off some serious heat), and everything was incredibly clean. We were super appreciative of our welcome gift as well as having such a wonderful complimentary breakfast spread delivered to our room each day. The location of Mill Street Inn could honestly not be better. It's within walking distance of the wharf and all major restaurants, yet is on a quiet street, so it's really peaceful as well. During these crazy times having a place to go with such friendly staff, beautiful accommodations, a killer rooftop area, in an ideal location that also feels safe and SO clean is truly everything. We will absolutely be back in the future!

My husband and I's stay at the Mill Street Inn last week was absolutely perfect. The concierge team was wonderful. Complimentary touches like a welcome gift with local goods, homemade sangria pitchers, changing breakfast delivered each morning to the room, easy parking and more all made for such an incredible stay. Our room was spacious and cozy - I recommend anyone visiting Newport ditch the chain hotel options and book a stay at Mill Street Inn.

Absolutely delightful!! I can't say enough about how much I love this place! My fiancé and I stayed here for 3 nights, and it was truly a "home away from home" for us. As a historic property, the inn has so much character, with its brick walls and unique 2-story room layouts with a rooftop deck. The view from the deck was especially beautiful in the early evenings, with the nearby church steeple and surrounding trees framing the sunset sky. Our room was quiet and peaceful, and we did not hear any other guests during our stay. The in-room gas fireplace lent a wonderful element of coziness (and warmth!) for us to enjoy as we watched Christmas movies each night. We had new breakfast options each day, all of which were fresh and delicious, and delivered on time based on our request. The staff was so warm and welcoming, especially Hunter at the front desk. He was just wonderful, offering recommendations, greeting us each evening with a smile, and bringing us tea at night when we returned from dinner. It is people like Hunter that add that special feeling of hospitality to a trip like ours. We will most certainly stay here again when we return to Newport!

I cannot say enough good things about this hotel! The staff was extremely friendly and accommodating, the hotel is centrally located and walking distance to all of the shops and restaurants. We received a free room upgrade which was a pleasant surprise! They offer a complimentary breakfast that is delivered to your room. There was also complimentary delicious sangria available when we checked in. Wicked nice shower and bathroom. Nespresso machine in room! My fiancé and I go to Newport often and I will literally only stay at this hotel moving forward. I would give 10 stars if I could!! Thanks for an amazing stay!

What a hidden gem in a very convenient spot. From the moment I walked in the lobby I was smitten. Customer service was fantastic and I was given a welcome bag to take to my room. The room perfectly balances the old with the new and I loved the exposed brick and modern touches like the fireplace. The thought and care put into the property, amenities, and customer service is evident and makes guests feel welcomed. Will be my go to place again when I visit!

Great little hotel, right in town, close to anything you'll want to do in Newport. 1. Rooms very clean, modern, very comfortable bedding. 2. Free breakfast good for early morning start (yogurt, granola, pastry, fruit cup.) 3. WiFi - very fast, perfect. 4. Parking - lot on site with easy entry into hotel 5. Tesla charging: They only have 120 volt access so not great. Addition of a 240 volt charging station highly recommended especially with onset of more EV's! 6. Handicap accessibility: no elevator so you may want to request 1st floor room if wheel chair or other mobility restrictions (easy entry from parking lot - no steps or barriers.) 7. Staff very friendly and helpful. Overall highly recommended, better than staying at Marriott or other hotel 'chain'!

Perfect place to stay in Newport. Small hotel, very boutique And charming with a lovely continental breakfast and late afternoon tea and snacks. Just blocks from the wharf but thankfully more quiet. Comfy room and beds. A little eclectic set up but that's likely because of the building foundation...v small bathroom and overly generous sitting area. Incredibly warm and gracious staff. One big downfall is the WiFi is free but so truly bad as to be worthless. We could only get it in one corner of our room. Can't get in breakfast area and can get only near front desk. Another in our party couldn't get at all in their room and was coming in our room corner often to access. So that's the big problem. Nothing a modest financial investment of some boosters couldn't fix. The only other criticism I can think of is the bathroom looked in need of some updating or at least re grouting. But this was just perfect for our family wedding reunion trip! If we are ever back here we will stay here again.

Absolutely delightful!' We were interested in staying here on our next trip to Newport and we are so glad that we did. The deluxe room is both spacious and comfortable. The staff is helpful and happy. The inn has a great atmosphere and is perfectly situated near Thames St. and is very peaceful. The full continental breakfast is delicious and the in-room coffee and tea service is great. We love everything about The Mill Street Inn.

Loved our stay! Its the perfect location and very central to everything. The room was a great size and we also appreciated the welcome snacks, free coffee / tea, complimentary breakfast, free parking - the list goes on and on! Special shoutout to Lori at the front desk who was fantastic and gave us tons of helpful tips.

The location is perfect. You can pretty much walk to all the restaurants and the wharf. The room is exactly like the pictures on their website and very clean. Their breakfast pastries are delicious! Hunter was the person we interacted the most and his customer service was excellent. You can also see beautiful sunset on their roof deck. We had our dinner their and enjoyed the sunset. The only downside was that the parking space was a little tight so we had to to go back early enough to get a parking space. Regardless, we will for sure book Mill St. again when we go back to Newport.

This hotel was one of the major highlights of our Thanksgiving New England road trip adventure!  Granted it was the off season in Newport, but since we had never even heard of this place we were thrilled!  Newport is an awesome island and it was so cool to experience it during a time that was still decent enough to get out and sight see, but not pay the big bucks!  The Mill Street Inn was adorable, the staff was amazing and seriously passionate about the hotel and Newport in general, and the room was so homey... exactly what we needed at this point of our trip!  They offer a free breakfast which was MUCH better than the usual BW fare, and they also host an evening "tea time." We didnt go to this, but from the pictures on Yelp it looks like heavy snacks and mixers...BYOB!  The location was PERFECT for us and we walked to the mansions, shops, wharf, and cliff walk without a problem. I know we definitely got a deal by happening upon this place during the off season... but if you have the chance I would definitely suggest staying here if you can afford peak season prices, or just want an off season weekend get-away!  They also offer massages and spa treatments for a great rate, and they have family sized suites with fireplaces and private balconies! I just LOVED LOVED LOVED The Mill Street Inn... I plan to come back to Newport RI (even though I am from WA state) and see the rest of the mansions along with Block Island. Phenomonal place and phenomonal hotel!!! 100 stars!!!!

What a disappointment. The hotel is centrally located, which is great. But everything else was really a let down. The studios are small. They also offer breakfast brought to your room, but it was basically a croissant or cereal with fruit/juice. The biggest disappointment though was the staff. One concierge seemed nice, but the other was extremely rude and generally so unhelpful. We asked about a late checkout the night before, and she spoke to me for almost ten minutes about the maids schedule. It was very strange, and still no late check out. She was clearly bothered that we asked. We asked her about the trolly in the area. She didn't know. We asked about breakfast. The two restaurants she recommended were closed. She generally made us feel unwelcome and mostly due to that, we'd never be back. **Update** Everything I said in my review was completely accurate, and I was trying to be kind considering the service we received. It's obvious from the hotels' defensive and rude response that this is the kind of attitude we experienced when we were there and the reason for my review. Good luck.

Stayed at the Mill Street Inn for a single night get away with my wife. The staff was incredibly helpful and knowledgeable about Newport. The location of the Inn is perfect: close enough to walk to everything but quietly tucked away a few blocks up Mill Street from the wharf. The room was very well-appointed with nice amenities. Mill Street also gets a lot of the little touches right from the welcome bag to the complimentary breakfast offering. Will stay there again for sure and can't recommend it more highly.

Just checked in and yay, I think I have a new favorite place to stay. Just a block or two from the downtown scene/Thames St on a slightly quieter street (better sleeping!) it took just a few minutes to walk to the various Wharf's to find a lunch spot. Parking is an option if it's not crazy busy. Check in at 3pm. Ice cold welcome drinks (white sangria or raspberry water) on arrival. Our room wasn't quite ready (at noon) so we left our bags at check in, when we returned after lunch they'd been thoughtfully placed in our room. Spacious room with great separate living room, large tv, air con, ceiling fan. Lovely ROIL toiletries in the bathroom (not individual, yay for less plastic!), with separate shampoo and conditioner (hate combined). Really lovely welcome note with a celebratory bottle of wine (anniversary stay), chilled water, fruit, nuts and chocolate pretzels, we felt so welcome! I'll update tomorrow after checking out the complimentary afternoon tea and breakfasts!

I surprised my wife with a stay at the Mill St. Inn for her 50th and we were both extremely pleased with every aspect of the experience. The rooms were spacious, well appointed, comfortable and clean. Complementary breakfast delivered to our room each morning, sangria in the afternoon and the rooftop deck with gorgeous views of Newport are just a few of the things that made our experience outstanding. The parking garage was a huge plus and the staff were friendly and attentive. The Inn is located in beautiful historic Newport just a short walk to the waterfront and its many attractions. We would absolutely recommend staying at the Inn and we look forward to returning!!!

I love hotels and have stayed in many in the US and foreign countries. The Mill Street Inn is one of the best guest experiences I've ever had! The location is perfect, the service is impeccable, and the rooms are spacious suites with big screen HD TV's in each room. Breakfast (until 11am) is fabulous on the rooftop and afternoon tea includes a selection of beverages, cookies and brownies. Complementary nuts and water in the rooms along with turn down bed service with chocolates each night. Upon check-in, complementary sangria is provided. If you are in Newport, Rhode Island you should stay at the Mill Street Inn!

Customer service can be beat. Stayed here for our anniversary. I emailed the desk to see if they had a blueray player available so that we could watch our wedding video. The didn't have one on site, but they went out and bought one and set it up for us! There was also a bottle of wine waiting for us in the room! Awesome. The room was great! Bed was comfortable and room was clean. Breakfast was a nice continental set up with bagels, cereal, bread, egg, fresh squeezed oj, and coffee and tea. Hotel is within walking distance of all you need. We wouldn't hesitate to stay here again!

This place was fantastic. It exceeded our expectations, beginning with the wonderful customer service, to the byob diy bar, super comfy bed and yummy room snacks, and finally the delicious breakfast included with our stay. The location is fantastic - walking distance from everything. We were able to spend the night at our favorite restaurant and walk back to the hotel without worrying about driving or looking for parking. Speaking of parking, the inn offers free parking, which is a big deal in Newport. We will most definitely be going back for a weekend getaway!

Totally disappointed in the service of staff. Had to cancel our reservations due to the COVID-19 restrictions from the State of Rhode Island and upon cancellation I was charged a $25 service fee! Completely unfair when the entire State was shut down from visitors. When we originally called to inquire about the shut down, were told if we cancelled by a certain date, we would not be penalized. We took their advice and followed their recommendation. However we were penalized with the service fee. Upon asking for the full refund, I was instructed that "this is our policy, it's on the website". I double checked their website and nothing stated we would be charged a service fee due to a Epidemic that was out of our control. We weren't even offered any options, it was just cancel or lose our entire deposit. Not much of a choice. Won't rebook their anytime soon.

I must give this little Inn a rave review. My sister and I stayed here 2 nights last week and we were very impressed. They surprised us on arrival by upgrading our suite from the Junior to the Deluxe Suite, which was a lovely start to our stay. Then we were given a goodie bag which had an assortment of snacks - all of which we thought were perfect. We had 2 huge televisions in our Suite, a comfy king size bed, as well as comfy armchair and couch. We loved the linens and pillows and we were very pleased with all the little extra amenities in the room, like coffees, teas, soaps, makeup remover wipes, shower cap, really nice robes, slippers and I'm sure more that I can't remember. We were able to park in their garage and there is additional off street parking, which is nice in the downtown area. The Inn provides a lovely little continental breakfast which is delivered to your door at the time of your choosing. We loved everything we had. There are refreshing drinks at the desk area in the afternoon which were also very nice. We had a different Sangria each evening which were very enjoyable and there were flavored waters as well. The staff we met and dealt with were exemplary. Lori and Katrina were very helpful in recommending places to eat, as well as providing directions and recommendations of things to do. Thanks to their help, we were able to walk or use the free trolley to get everywhere we wanted to go. The Inn is situated conveniently to attractions, shopping and restaurants, so we never had to drive at all. We would definitely come back here again and we give this place high marks!!

I loved every bit of my stay at the Mill Street Inn. I reserved a night last minute and everyone I encountered along the way offered impeccable service. I brought along my puppy and for a mere $50 fee we had a ball. We stayed in room 203 and the suite was set up perfectly...the balcony, the fireplace and all of the amenities were perfect! The complimentary breakfast was no regular continental with fresh juice, organic coffee, homemade breads, fresh pastries and eggs and sausage. I would recommend and look forward to staying here again!

Can't say enough wonderful things about the Mill Street Inn. Booked it on a whim on Hotel Tonight and was completely satisfied with everything it offered. Stayed in a townhouse suite - which had two floors, large televisions, fireplace, sunny balcony and king sized bed. Everything was clean and the staff could not have been nicer and more accommodating. The afternoon snacks and breakfast set up on the roof deck are as nice as previous reviewers commented. Loved the quiet location off Thames and close to parks. Able to walk anywhere we needed and leave the car parked for the duration of our stay. Would definitely return.

This inn is a SCAM! I stayed in a studio suites years ago and thought I would upgrade to a deluxe this time which is advertised as "luxury" with a balcony. I checked in with unfriendly staff to realize the room I received was significantly smaller than the studio. I asked if a mistake was made since I paid more money for a smaller room compared to the studio (cheaper room) and no balcony. I was told not every deluxe room has a balcony and that I should have emailed them for one of them. Their website only shows pictures of the deluxe room with a balcony and the luxury option so, unsure how I would have known otherwise. I asked to be moved to another room or upgrade and was told "sorry, we're booked solid" and just stared at me to walk away. It was my birthday, not that the staff cared to ask why I was staying in Newport, so I requested for an inhouse couples massage which is the reason I gave a 1 star review. I was so embarrassed, to let the therapists in the room since there was clearly not enough space for 2 beds. We helped them move furniture around. During the massage, the therapist kept hoping over chairs. It was so awkward and uncomfortable, like having a party in a closet. I felt so bad for them. Breakfast offered "fresh egg sandwiches" but it was a premade, cold croissant. When I stayed there a few years ago, they offered a huge spread for breakfast. Don't stay here expecting a luxurious stay. The carpet had stains and there was an awful smell. We woke up to the noise of a vacuum. You can hear everything. The inn doesn't send email confirmations, reminders, or even ask how your stay was. I stay in Newport at least 10 times a year. Its a great town but I will never stay at the Mill St Inn again.

I have to admit, I was pretty nervous about staying at Mill St when I started reading the reviews around the Internet. However, we decided, why not give it a try, we'd already bought the Groupon. We were immediately happy we did. The hotel staff, was incredibly pleasant, every single one greeted us. The hotel is laid out nicely and has off street parking, which is wonderful! We stayed in a King Suite on the first floor. The room was laid out well and the high ceilings really make the room appear even larger. There is a nightly turn down service that brings a small candy treat as well as an information sheet about the weather the next day and offers an idea of things to do in town. The room was clean and the maid service was great. They provided clean towels each day. There was also a continental breakfast each morning, that had a really great selection. Honestly, we were very happy with the location and accommodations and will certainly recommend the Inn to anyone we know who is heading to Newport.

Could not have been better. First time in Newport and wasn't sure how to navigate booking stuff fun for Easter weekend and my boyfriend's birthday. This location is perfect to everything you want to do. The staff was so helpful. Every place we went and tried was recommended by them! At the 11th hour before coming from DE we found out our dog needed to come with us. They easily switched us to a pet friendly room and even gave us a bed and bowls for her. The room was clean and large and had a sitting area and everything we could want. I would never think twice about booking there. When we return to Newport it is a no brainer we will stay here.

We stayed here for 2 days in the COVID-19 pandemic, and it was great. We had a beautiful porch where we could enjoy dinner with a sunset view over the harbor. It was clean, and they were kind enough to give us a bottle of wine to celebrate our honeymoon on arrival, and two dog beds for our pups traveling with us.

I just recently stayed at the Mill Street Inn for the second time this year and I must say this has to be one of the best, if not best, bed and breakfast's in Newport. The location is perfect - within walking distance to Thames Street which is where most of the local shops and restaurants are. The private parking garage on the property is a huge plus. Each morning there is a continental breakfast served along with tea/coffee from 3-6pm every afternoon. The staff is lovely and very accommodating. Of note, each of my stays were in the Townhouse Suites which has two floors and a great view of the harbor from the balcony (these suites are located on the second floor). There is no elevator within the hotel but it's only one flight up from the main level to get to the top/second floor. If you're on the fence as to where to stay in Newport, this is the place!

It's probably the best hotel you can get in Newport, a bit pricey though. Comfy beds, quality linen, delicious breakfast with fresh squeezed orange juice and fruit salad, exceptional emphasize on details, bottle of water and fresh seasonal fruit in the room, overall cleanliness, very helpful and friendly staff, awesome location

Mill Street Inn is my kinda place. Super comfy bed. Awesome shower that's tall enough for giant clown. Free parking for the clown car. Super helpful front desk gent, John, who helped me procure a grinder and meatballs delivered to my door at midnight. The smell of fresh baked pastry fills the halls in the wee small hours in preparation for the most delicious free breakfast (includes espresso and fresh squoze grapefruit juice)! Sure beats my usual morning can of Beanie Weenies. Walking distance to Salvation and White Horse and countless other fine establishments. Next time I'm passing thru my favorite olden timey seaport, you can bet I'll seek Mill Street to rest my big weary feets. Your wandering wayfarer, Puddles

I stumbled upon the Mill Street Inn one evening when I did not have reservations in Newport. I have not stayed anywhere else since. I see all the beautiful hotels in Newport and I am never tempted to try any place else. Mill Street Inn is a welcoming, charming, centrally located hotel. The breakfast and tea are sumptuous and delicious highlighting local businesses - bakeries, coffee, etc. During the evening turn down service they leave locally made chocolates. I adore any business that promotes local businesses. Complementary snacks are also provided in the rooms. The accommodations are clean and comfortable and relaxing. The sitting areas are a great place to relax and entertain. You can get out of bed and read the provided Providence paper and drink coffee. The beds are large and made with crisp white linens. The multiple televisions are the latest and best. This last visit I had a balcony which was wonderful to sit out on in morning, evening and afternoon. Everyone who works at the Inn is polite, welcoming and wanting to make your stay the best. They try to accommodate any special requests. It is a special place to stay and when my business in Newport is concluded I will miss visiting the Inn.

Nice hotel close to Thames about 11/2 blocks. Free parking on premises. They have a coffee and tea with cookies and brownies from 3-5 pm, nice complimentary breakfast with hot and cold food, bagels fruits, smoked salmon etc. Bed is comfortable and high ceilings in clean room. Very nice staff. We had two tvs in the suite one in couch area and one in the bedroom.

All four seasons there is something going on in Newport. I have stayed at the Mill Street Inn 3 times now and every time I like it more and more. It is centrally located in downtown Newport close to all the shops and restaurants on Thames as well as the sites on Bellevue. It is even close to the beach with just about a mile drive. The first time we stayed here we had the large room with the conference table on the second floor. Although this room did not have a balcony we still enjoyed the spaciousness and high brick ceilings. The second time we stayed in one of the town house set-ups. The room consisted of a living room on the first floor and a master suite upstairs with a balcony looking out to Newport Harbor. In the summer breakfast is served on the roof deck, which is a great spot to hang out and watch the sun set. In inclement weather there is a small dining room in the lower level of the building. The rooms are extremely clean and the staff is always happy to suggest a great place to dine or call and book a reservation for you. I have booked a few of the weekend packages, which includes a bottle of wine, tickets to the mansion and a gift certificate to dine at one of the local restaurants. I highly recommend the Mill Street for your Newport experience. Make sure to book ahead!

I just returned from a one night stay at the Mill Street Inn and here are my thoughts: Pros: -Location (the Inn is located within walking distance of Thames and all of the downtown Newport attractions - it was nice to be able to get to and from everything in only a 3-4 min walk) - Parking (parking in Newport is a hassle and having free parking in such a great area is a plus.) - Service (I've read some negative reviews about the hotel's staff, but everyone I encountered was polite, helpful, and kind. I also liked that there was turndown service!) - Breakfast (now, I'm not trying to assert that the breakfast was great, because it certainly wasn't. However, being able to grab a tea, some fruit and some yogurt before hitting the Cliff Walk is great, especially when it's free.) Cons: - Room 101 (the room was spacious and decently appointed, with cathedral ceilings and ceiling fans. It also had two large windows, both of which overlooked the parking lot. Because room 101 is located on the first floor, not only do you look out onto the parking lot, but you can make eye contact with anyone exiting their car. Suffice it to say, we had to keep the curtains drawn throughout the entire stay. Request a different room.) - Bed (I can't speak for all of the beds at this hotel, but ours was tired and old. Not only were the sheets scratchy, but the bed sloped at an alarmingly uncomfortable angle, which led to a lot of discomfort the following day.) - Bathroom (Why do hotels fit their bathrooms with pedestal sinks? Most travelers bring their own toiletries and would appreciate some counter space. It's worth noting that the toiletries provided by the inn were very nice, but I could've used more counter space. In addition, even after running the shower for more than five minutes, the water reached "lukewarm" temperatures at best and the shower head, a hand-held that was mounted, kept moving as if it had taken on a mission to spray the out-of-tub area). All in all, I don't think this is a terrible place to stay. We were moderately comfortable for our stay, and if you're planning to be out and about in downtown Newport for most of your time, this is probably a decent pick. Just try to find a deal on a room, as I don't think the $379 we paid (including tax) was worth it.

We loved our stay at Mill Street Inn! We've been coming to Newport for years and have stayed in many different hotels in the area and I would highly recommend staying here. We got the room on Hotel Tonight for a great rate-we actually chose this hotel over trying the new Brenton Hotel because it was $100 cheaper. The room was huge with a living and dining area. The bathroom was spacious and the whole place was impeccably clean. The bed was comfortable and we appreciated how quiet the hotel was. The breakfast was delivered right on time and was delicious-especially the warm bacon scone!! The people at the desk were so nice and welcoming. The location is perfect-close and walking distance to anywhere you would want to go. We had just come here from a night at the Cliffside Inn and we liked MSI better-we wished we could have stayed a week. We will absolutely be back!!
