Be aware that when you book a room on this site, it may not be the room that you get. Once we arrived, we were given a key to check out a room on the third floor in a different building. It was a shotty room with unsafe locks and a lot of narrow stairs. I feel it was a way of forcing us to upgrade which we didn’t feel we should have needed to do. Management told us that they would throw in breakfast which we had already paid for online, but was never taken off of our bill.

Perfect location! It’s quaint and very authentic New England. Very charming property. We were schedule for the Mellvill House and got upgraded for $60 and it was very very worth it. Great experience. Easy walk downtown.

It's a period inn so I expected a small room. The room itself was quite nice, however, the bed mattress was extremely hard and uncomfortable. The room lock worked, but the main building lock didn't , so the building wasn't secure. Also I didn't receive any housekeeping service during my stay. Newport accommodation is always expensive and this was no exception, but the next time I visit I will spend my money elsewhere.

nice place to stay very typical of the newport old houses. They manage to keep the spirit of the place without being too rustic too old.

Very well situated, right in the old part of Newtown. Quiet neighborhood and close to the busier streets. Staff was very friendly and helpful. Kindly let us stay past the check out hour. We didn’t get a room in the house we had reserved (not in Melville but in an adjacent house) and the room we got didn’t look like the pictures posted on line. It was a little poky but since we only wanted to use it to sleep in, it didn’t bother us much.

Overall great! We loved it and will be back. Staff was very helpful, the room was cozy, and you can’t beat the location! Only a 5 minute walk to downtown. Only downside was we kept finding so many flies, and a couple bees in our room. They were all by the windows so we assume the windows aren’t in properly or something. Only felt like a minor inconvenience though for what we got!

Historic building, small but quaint & comfy room. Tiny but very clean bathroom & shower. Staff informed us of small rooms & bathrooms in advance. Staff was very helpful & wanted to make our stay with them & Newport enjoyable. Staff advised us about restaurant week & made helpful suggestions. Highly recommend a stay here.

While I scheduled a stay at the Melville House, they overbooked and offered to “upgrade” me to an attic room with a hole in the ceiling covered by a piece of plywood, a concave king bed, a toilet that didn’t flush, and a ghost that sat down on the edge of my bed in the morning. The Wynstone was not the upgrade I was expecting.

I felt like part of the family! Much of the staff has been there for years because they treat everyone like family! Owner actually went to get me soda that I liked and stocked the refrigerator! Amazing historic place, convenient, and cozy
