My girlfriend and I were looking for an escape from the city and went to Newport. Although we thought about going somewhere else to try something new, we keep coming back to Armistead Cottage, it is always our B&B of choice and has been for years. First of all we love Romana and Charles. They always treat us and all... More

Me and my husband thought it would be a good idea to take a weekend away from the kids, therefore he insisted we take a trip where we could have time to focus on us. Newport has always been one of our favorite destinations so we researched local B&Bs in the area. I have always liked the home-like and welcoming... More

My husband and I went for a one night getaway. Location of the BnB was very good. There were some idiosyncratic but fun elements about the inn...the carrot museum to begin with. Our room was poorly heated...bathroom had no heat whatsoever. The shower was very small and I am not that big (5'4"). It was nice to have a TV... More

I had a week off of work and decided to take my girlfriend on a nice relaxing trip to Newport to unwind and hopefully, relax a little. We researched a lot of nearby places and Armistead came up and we decided to read the reviews. Needless to say, the reviews were right on the mark. This place is amazing. Romana,... More

We celebrated our 16th anniversary at the Armistead in late October. The room was very romantic, the breakfast was fantastic and Romana is truly one of a kind, in the most complimentary way of course. If you go to Newport and don't stay here you will regret it. Sincerely, Gary and Laura from NH More

The only reason we did not give it five stars is because we like to sleep late, while the other guests were up early. We were awaken by the other bedroom doors and the other guests walking and talking. This was our... More

We had a wonderful stay and would recommend it to anyone headed Romama's way. The room was beautiful, fireplace was a very nice feature in our room. Romana's breakfast was outstanding! Had a very interesting conversation at breakfast and Romana is very knowledgeable of the Newport sites to see! Great B & B More

My husband and I spent our one year anniversary at Armistead Cottage and were instantly fond of our hosts and their home! The period house is finely decorated with Romana's own art and other eclectic pieces from around the world. We experienced a nice balance of openness and privacy here, as if visiting a friends home. Don't want to give... More

Ro was fabulous, just a fun person and the Armistead was lovely. We had a spacious room at a great price in a quiet neighborhood in Newport, RI. We visit yearly, so have a lot of comparison points. This was top notch! Don't hesitate, really, everything about our stay was superb. More
