Guest Reviews & Ratings
My stay at the hotel was lovely overall. The rooms were clean and pleasant, but a bit claustrophobic with limited water pressure in the shower. The service was outstanding, deserving more than five stars for their gracious hospitality and the delicious breakfast served. The location was great, close to Easton Beach and the cliff walk, although a few blocks away from downtown. The dining experience was a highlight of my day, with a delightful spread, but the cheese selection wasn't up to par. The facilities were well-kept and added to the comfort of my stay.
My stay at this hotel was fantastic. The rooms were lovely, clean, and comfortable, and the staff really know how to run a B&B. The location is perfect, close to all the exciting spots in Newport. The dining experience was a highlight of my day, with delicious food and great conversations. The facilities were top-notch, making my stay even more enjoyable.
My stay at the Armistead B&B was truly delightful. The rooms were comfortable, clean, and filled with all the amenities I could need. Romana and Charles have tastefully decorated the rooms with period furnishings, creating a super clean and welcoming atmosphere. The service provided by the owners was exceptional, they were personable, friendly, and very knowledgeable about the area. The location is perfect, nestled in a nice quiet area near Easton Beach and just minutes away from the cliff walk. The dining experience, curated by Charles and Romana, was the highlight of my stay, with a delicious spread that kickstarted my days perfectly. The facilities were top-notch, providing everything I needed for a relaxing and enjoyable stay.

I cannot recommend this hotel enough! The location is perfect, right by Easton Beach and just a few minutes from cliff walk. The rooms were comfortable, clean, and equipped with everything I needed. The service was exceptional; they truly deserve more than five stars for their gracious hospitality and the delicious breakfast served. However, the dining experience fell short; the local focaccia bread was not up to par. Overall, a great value for the money with wonderful facilities like pool and beach access.
Staying at the Armistead Cottage was a delightful experience. The rooms were not just comfortable but immaculately clean, and they were equipped with all the amenities one could need. While the location near Easton Beach was serene and pleasant, being a few blocks away from downtown also added to its charm. The hospitality and breakfast served by Romana and Charles were exceptional, making it feel like a home away from home.
