General Information

Classic Charm with a Modern Day Appeal makes the Newport Blues Inn one of the most attractive Bed and Breakfasts in Newport. Come visit the Newport Blues Inn and join the many guests who return frequently to their home away from home.

Pelham Street was the first street to be lighted by gas in the United States, as well as home of the United States Naval Academy between 1861 and 1865. The Newport Blues Inn is perfectly situated within walking distance to all that Newport offers. Bellevue Avenue with its mansions, shops, Tennis Hall of Fame, and museums is only one block above, and the Thames Street waterfront area with all its well known restaurants, shops, galleries, nightlife, and historic sites is just a few blocks below the house. The close proximity to the beaches, Cliff Walk, and wharf area makes the Newport Blues Inn an ideal accommodation choice for your next Newport vacation.
