The Jailhouse Inn is an award winning adaptation of one of Newport's most historic structures. A handsome federal style building, the old Newport County jail is in the heart of historic Newport, just steps from great dining, shopping and entertainment. Within a block you'll find Washington Square - buzzing with energy every night; the White Horse Tavern, New England's oldest tavern, now a five star restaurant, is across the street; and Thames Street where the eclectic shops display everything from designer fashions to French lace. Best of all we are easy to find, we are just minutes from the Newport Bridge by car, and two blocks from the visitor's center, the bus depot, and the Providence ferry landing.
Being so close to the harbor, you are in the heart of the activity surrounding Newport's greatest attraction - Newport Harbor and Narragansett Bay. A stroll along the bustling waterfront or a quite sunset cruise will convince you Newport is truly a special place.
The friendly and attentive staff at the Jailhouse Inn will make you feel right at home - we are here to make your Newport experience a great one. Besides our complimentary European style continental breakfast, we serve tea and cookies every afternoon. Join us on the front porch with a cup of Earl Grey tea and watch the world go by on historic Marlborough Street.
Once you have settled into your room, you can take the time to appreciate the comfortable bedding our guests enjoy so much. The spacious, light filled rooms with their rich mahogany "campaign" style furnishings provide an oasis of calm for the harried traveler.
The Jailhouse Inn is listed in the National Regiser of Historic Places. If you were a guest at the Jail before its rebirth as an Inn, be sure to let us know!
