Tony is a great host, the Inn is perfectly located across from a beautiful beach and just down the road from the northern entrance to the cliff walk and the mansions. The inn is situated about a 5-10 minute drive to downtown Newport and all the great restaurants and shops. The rooms are large, clean and well appointed and Tony has made sure that all safety protocol's are observed. There is a simple but adequate breakfast available and if you need a full breakfast there is a restaurant within walking distance. I recommend Rhea's for a great night's sleep and an excellent location at a great price.

This was the cleanest hotel I have ever stayed at and I’ve traveled a lot! Bedding and towels had a fresh scent like washed in your own house! Beds were comfortable. No hot breakfast but a variety of cereals, muffins, bagels cakes, fresh fruit, yogurt, tea,coffee,juices available 24/7. Stayed on the second floor with deck and jacuzzi tub. Views are the best from 3rd floor. Nice seating area on each floor for extra room if wanted. Walking distance to numerous restaurants, the beach, and the start of the Cliff walk. Extremely happy chose this area to stay in rather than upper Middleton where “ big name” hotels are located.Easy drive to downtown Newport, 5-8 minutes. Perfect location and perfect hotel for trip to Newport!!

Clean, well maintained little place to stay. Walking distance to beach and restaurants. Continental breakfast and plenty of complimentary snacks were a plus. Bed was comfortable and the shower had good water pressure. Full size tub, need to step up and over to get into shower.

Nice place. I was there for the New Port Jazz festival. It’s convenient for that. It’s a decent hotel. Clean. Quiet and located well. I would have like “newer” towels.

Great experience, would recommend. Check in is early at 2:00 which is super convenient for us as travelers. Great location by the beach, close enough to walk to sites! Lots of snacks and food available, good fresh food, not commonly seen while traveling always available!

I'd stay here again. We arrived late in the evening, and the staff person (owner?) was very accommodating and helpful. The room was clean. The breakfast isn't "fancy" but it was a nice touch with lots of options and we enjoyed it. Easy parking. It wasn't cheap, but it seems like a good value based on the area.

5.0 / 10.0
We had an excellent overnight stay. The hotel looks recently renovated. The hallway carpets were spotless. The bedroom and bathroom were good-sized and in excellent condition.
There was a cute seating area on the 2nd floor where we stayed, which has three rooms. So if a family or group booked those rooms, there's a little common area to gather in.
The office area serves as the breakfast area. It's compact but well-organized with a couch, TV, ice machine, hot and cold water dispenser, coffee, tea, a refrigerator (stocked with yogurt, milk, juice, butter, jelly), dry cereal, oatmeal, English muffins, Pop Tarts, fruit, muffins, cookies, granola bars -- so many choices!
Rhea's is in a great location. It's a short-ish walk to Easton Beach, and just beyond that is the famous Cliff Walk. There are several restaurants and stores very close by.
We highly recommend this beautiful little hotel and would not hesitate to stay there if we are ever visit this area again!

Rhea's is a true little gem. The Inn is remarkably clean. The staff is truly friendly and happy to have you there. It has a very homey feel and is very laid back, friendly feel. It is now my first choice to stay when I'm in the area. Also, if you're into supporting the small independent businesses, this is definitely worth your patronage. I'm looking forward to staying at Rhea's again

We stayed at Rhea's during a visit to see the mansions in Newport.
This hotel was a great option for us. Less than a five minute walk to Eastons beach. Very quick drive to the mansions in Newport and downtown Newport.
The hotel room was very clean, nicely decorated. Nice options for a quick breakfast. The gentleman who ran the front desk was very nice.
We would definitely stay here again!

Rhea’s Inn was absolutely beautiful!!! We booked a king room with a deck which overlooked the ocean. The room and bathroom were large and exceptionally clean!!! Coffee and breakfast(bagels, muffins and fruit) were included. The owners was very friendly. He gave us a lot of recommendations in the area and chatted with us everyday. The surrounding area was nice, walkable, safe and only a few minutes to drive to downtown Newport. We loved it so much we recommended it to a family member who will be there later this year and they booked it also. We would definitely stay here again!!

Our stay at Rhea's Inn by the Sea was enjoyable. Our third floor room had updated furniture which was clean and provided ample storage space. The bathroom was updated, as well. Stairways and public areas were clean, too, although the floor level "lobby" areas looked a little bit dated. It looked like the place had just been painted because the woodwork was so clean, but I have a feeling that the place is just well taken care of. There is a lobby area down by the front desk where fruit, granola bars, muffins, juice, etc, etc are all provided. What a BONUS! The motel is within walking distance to a nearby beach, Clementine's Ice Cream Shop and Flo's Clam Shack. It's also somewhat close to the Cliff Walk and within easy driving distance to downtown Newport. If you're looking for a Hilton with all the amenities, this isn't it, but Rhea's is a very clean, comfortable, quiet, family-owned place.

Great place to stay. Convenient to the beach and the Cliff walking tour not to mention, Flo's Seafood, great fish and chips. Will most definitely stay here again.
