My husband and I just spent a delightful weekend at this B&B in Newport. The accommodations are cozy and comfortable, and are within walking distance of the southern end of the Cliff Walk. The innkeeper is a warm, welcoming woman who cooks up extraordinary fresh breakfasts and is willing to offer advice about where to eat the meals she doesn't cook. We stayed in the larger of the two rooms and found everything we needed, including a corkscrew and some wine glasses. If you like antiques, you will be especially pleased to see the furnishings in this house. We hope to have the chance to return soon.

The Gardenview B & B is a wonderful specialty-antique decorated home located within easy walking distance to the famous and busy Thames Street of Newport, RI. The home itself is located within a clean safe neighborhood that seems to thrive on beauty, peace, and quiet. Outside, there is a garden with a complex variety of plants and bushes that surround a small patio and fish pond that by day or night breathes out a natural tranquility. Inside, there are only two rental rooms, each with convenient off-street parking; and thus, privacy, convenience, personal attention, and complete isolation from life’s tangled throngs are essentially guaranteed. Both the home and the rooms are very clean, neat, and air-conditioned, with all of the other needed essentials that taken together, create a welcome-home feeling as soon as you walk in. The setting is ideal for individuals, couples, or friends needing and wanting not only time alone, but also convenient accessibility to all that Newport RI has to offer. Mrs. Mary Fitzgerald owns and runs the Gardenview B & B. She is completely wonderful; she is the type that you like immediately as a friend and respect as a person. She is clean, neat, attentive, responsible, flexible, friendly, helpful, area-knowledgeable, and a fabulous cook. You miss her when you leave.

My husband and I just enjoyed our second stay at Gardenview and loved it as much as the first time we stayed. The location is great...close to the village, mansions and beach. The rooms are comfortable and elegant with many thoughtful amenities. The innkeeper makes you feel like one of the family. Breakfasts are amazing!

My girlfriend and I stayed in the Sun-Lit room for a long weekend. It was an amazing place, very clean, cozy surrounding that made us feel more at home than any hotel would have. It was a shorter walk to downtown than we thought so we loved staying here. I highly recommend Gardenview to anybody.
