Almondy Inn

The Almondy Inn is charming,close to Newport Harbor and Mansions and provides a lovely and relaxing starting point for any visit to Newport. Evelyne and Herber are wonderful hosts! Our stay was enchanting!

Herb & Evelyne were great to deal with. They were helpful in offering suggestions as to where to eat etc. Evelyne's breakfasts were wonderful!

Midweek stay. Wine and cheese soon after our arrival. Very close to shops/restaurants. Outstanding breakfast.

I thoroughly enjoyed my stay at the Almondy Inn. The owners are delightful, the room a joy and the breakfasts superb. I would recommend a stay at this Inn. Next time I am in Newport, my first choice will be The Almondy.

We loved staying at the Almondy Inn. The room exceeded our expectations, and the breakfast time meeting the other stayers was very nice.

We spent last weekend at Almondy Inn, and would return in a heartbeat. The Inn was conveniently located near great restaurants and shops. We were within walking distance to everything. The Inn was beautifully decorated, clean, and accommodating. The staff was available to answer questions about the area, and gave great tips about the sites. Our mansion tour voucher was giving to us upon arrival. Breakfast was served on time both days, and was delicious. Our room faced the wharfs, and was warm and inviting. We could not have asked for a better place to stay while in Newport. I would recommend the Almondy Inn to anyone planning a visit to the area!

Just spend a wonderful weekend at the Almondy Inn. Hosts are gracious, rooms are well appointed and clean, food was creative and delicious....it is the perfect place for a romantic weekend getaway. Location was ideal as well -- just a short walk into town. This B&B comes with my highest recommendation!

My husband and I have been to many B&Bs and truly enjoyed this experience. The owners were very open and friendly and we enjoyed our conversations with them. The room was beautiful and immaculate, the breakfasts left us with no room for lunch and the location can't be beat! We'll definitely be booking with them again when staying in Newport!

The welcome was wonderful. Our rooms were lovely, nicely appointed and very clean. Such friendly and experienced proprietors. Our wine and cheese in the evening was fun, and breakfast was fantastic....baked goods, eggs and bacon and beautiful fruit. The coffee was delicious.

Outstanding B&B, very close to everything in the historic Newport area. We've been coming here for the past 5 years and would not consider anywhere else.

We have stayed at The Almondy many times. We always enjoy the company of fellow guests. Evelyne will do anything to make your stay enjoyable and relaxing. Her breakfasts are exquisite. Afternoon wine and cheese in the living room is a wonderful way to meet others staying at the inn. The Inn is beautifully decorated with fresh flowers adding a touch of elegance in all the right places. We always feel warm and welcome at The Almondy.

We stayed 2 nights in Plantation room on September 8th 2011, hosts were terrific and bed was very clean and comfortable,breakfasts were tasty.

As soon as we walked in to the Almondy Inn you felt right at home. We stayed in the Blue Room and it was lovely. The cleaniness and updated bathroom was wonderful! The location is just a minute walk down to the Harbor for great dining and shopping. Will be back next year!

Evelyn and Herber are the ultimate hosts; we had a great night sleep each evening and woke to a fabulouse breakfast! They have restored the house beautifully and tastefully. Almondy Inn is literally steps from Bannisters Wharf, the Newport Yacht Club marina and directly behind 3 nightclubs; but despite the close proximity to just about everything we didn't hear any noise at all once we closed our window. A very peaceful sleep in the middle of all the action. We will be back!!

Went for a couple of nights to see Newport and wanted to stay at a B&B. We were both very happy with our choice. Evelyn (innkeeper) was very gracious, more then helpful with dinner suggestions, etc. The Inn had off-street parking which was great considering how crowded it is in the historical area (and expensive to pay for a lot). Gourmet breakfast was great, and we loved the wine & cheese hour in the evening. We have already recommended to friends!

The Almondy was close to everything and the innkeepers were lovely. Highly recommend!

We had a comfortable, fantastic stay. Only way it could have been better is if they asked up front what we wanted to eat! They provided some fancy, delicious food, but would have been nice to know what to expect for breakfast.

We have visited Newport in the last three years and stayed at a hotel and two B&B's. The Almondy is by far our best experience! It is a beautifully restored inn. We stayed in the Blue Bay Room. It was comfortable and exceptionally clean. The jacuzzi tub was a treat! It is evident that Evelyne and Herber take great pride in their establishment and welcome each and every guest as family. The inn is impeccable both inside and out. Ample parking is available. Evelyne knows the area very well and offers great suggestions for restaurant dining and things to do. Breakfast at the inn is superb! She is very accommodating to food allergies and can offer vegetarian options as well. We enjoyed chatting with guests during our stay at breakfast and at the end of the day at the wine and cheese hour. The inn is steps away from all the activities on the wharf area but is also very quiet and relaxing. We had a great experience and will certainly return!

One of the better B&B's my wife and I have stayed in.

My parents have been coming here for a few years, and this time my husband and I took a trip with them. Upon entering the Almondy Inn, my expectations were substantially exceeded. From the hospitable welcome at the front door, to the immaculate, spacious rooms, service, EXQUISITE breakfasts, and other "homey" touches, my husband and I had only wished we started staying here sooner! We were treated like relatives of the innkeepers, and Evelyne assisted us with our daily itineraries, never once leaving us disappointed. Our 4-night, 5-day stay was filled to the brim with activities and delicious meals at the area's superb restaurants. This establishment is run with the utmost professionalism, and the location is spot-on. With just a short walk down to the corner, Bannister's Wharf awaits you. After long afternoons, you can expect "wine and cheese hour" in the parlor and a lovely chat with Evelyne. After dinner, it was a pleasure returning to our charming rooms, but not without relaxing first, on the front porch, enjoying an ice-cream cone from the corner chocolate/ice-cream shop. We will certainly be returning to the Almondy Inn, just like some of the other repeat-guests that we met while staying there. If there is anything you ever need throughtout your stay, Evelyne and her husband Herber are always around to assist you with a smile. We were so sorry to leave!

After having stayed at The Almondy Inn several times, I must say it never disappoints. The rooms are immaculate and Evelyne's breakfasts are superb. We are treated like very dear friends as opposed to guests. We feel very at home there. Also, it is very convenient to the wharf. A very short walk. The only place we will stay in Newport is The Almondy Inn!

You could not ask for better accomodations even at the Ritz. Almondy is by far the best bed & breakfast we have ever stayed at. The location is perfect to downtown Newport, walk to everything. Can't say enough about the room, the view, quiet, the cleanliness, like new condition, and victorian charm, all with a European flare. Now, breakfast was cooked to order no buffet and by candle light at the dining room table. That's over the top. Harold & Marilyn Taylor, Plymouth MA.

We received a gift card for Bed and Breakfast.com and chose Newport as we have never been there. I researched every inn using this site and Trip Advisor and my husband and I agreed that the Almondy was perfect. The location is the best; you are a few short blocks from the wharves, the historic district and all the action, shopping and restaurants on Thames St. Evelyn is gracious and helpful and it is easy to see that she loves what she does. Her breakfasts are absolutely delicious and served elegantly. We enjoyed fresh fruits, homemade muffins and croissants, eggs florentine, etc. She serves up wine, cheese and conversation at 5pm which is a great way to meet other people or just get ideas from Evelyn. She is extremely knowledgeable about all things Newport and with so many choices it helps to narrow things down. We stayed in the Blue Bay room for two nights. The room is immaculate as is the large bathroom, which has a lovely basket of luxury toiletries. The bed was the most comfortable bed I have ever slept in! The guest areas of the house are just as well kept, gracious yet inviting. During our travels we did see many of the other B and B's listed and we were so glad we chose the Almondy Inn. We are already planning our return trip!

Just spent the weekend in Newport at the Almondy. Location, room, breakfast and especially Evelyn, the innkeeper were wonderful.

Well located for the wharfs. Very pleasant inn that is exceptionally appointed. Kingsize bed can leave little room for any luggage in room. Wine and cheese on greeting. Very pleasant

About as good as it gets. Perfect location, wonderful hosts, exceptional food, and overall hospitality. This is the B&B in Newport you want to stay........

My friend and I had a wonderful stay for 1 night at the Almondy Inn. Evelyne, the innkeeper, is a gracious host and serves a delicious breakfast. She provdided the perfect balance between Newport guide and host while maintaining our privacy. Within walking distance to the main harbor, shops and restaurants. Having parking available as well was a huge convenience. We would definitely consider staying here again with our repective partners.

We had a near-perfect stay at the Almondy Inn. We stayed in the Plantation Room, which was very comfortable, if a bit overwhelmed by a large, very comfortable bed. The location is as good as it gets. Our hosts were very friendly, very helpful, and very accommodating (pun intended). Breakfast was delicious. When I declined a suggested meal, a fine alternative was cheerfully supplied. If we're ever in the area, we would certainly try to stay here again!

Evelyne & Herber Valkenberg are wonderful hosts. They are eager to please and are gracious and welcoming. Their B&B is located about two blocks away from shopping, restaurants and the waterfront. They're also only a 5 - 6 minute drive to the famous Cliff Walk. They offer offstreet parking, a quiet location, a very tasty breakfast, a nice wine and cheese hour where you can chat with them as well as their guests, and lovely amenities. If you're planning a stay in Newport you should definitely consider The Almondy Inn.

Superb location. Beautifully restored home. Nice period room. Close to everything you want to see

The best part was the breakfast. It was fabulous! The rooms we nice and we got to meet people from foreign countries. This was my first time in a bed and breakfast and I will be hard to match my experience.

Joe and I spent two nights at the Almondy Inn in Newport during the "heat wave" (last week of August, 2010). We had the Burgundy Suite, which was fabulous - superb 4-poster bed, tons of space, and great A/C. Evelynne, the owner, is an extremely gracious, multi-lingual, cultured woman - a delightful hostess, who makes you feel completely at home. The two women who work at the Inn are lovely, charming and helpful. The full breakfast is excellent - wine and cheese in the afternoon a perfect break in a busy sight-seeing day, and an opportunity to meet and talk with other guests (when we were there they ranged from 2 couples from Connecticut, to a lovely couple from Germany who were driving through New England). The Inn is 1/2 block up Pelham Street from Bannister's Wharf - close enough to walk to restaurants - far enough to feel you are in another, quieter, more relaxed world. We will definitely stay there again if we should return to Newport, which is very likely since we didn't get a chance to see all the Mansions, etc.

5/9/09--This was the first time my husband and I stayed in a B&B. Our experience at The Almondy Inn was nothing short of spectacular. The inn is conveniently located to wharves for great shopping and good eating. Our room had a very comfortable bed. Overall, the inn is very clean and elegant. Plus, parking is free in their driveway! Evelyn is a wonderful hostess and goes out of her way to make you feel at ease! We would definitely return again.
