Gardenview Bed and Breakfast

About The Hotel

Gardenview is a true bed-and-breakfast: owner-occupied, intimate, and deeply personal. This 4.8-rated property boasts only two rooms in Mary’s charming residential home on Binney Street, a quiet neighborhood about five minutes from downtown. The hot tub and garden patio with a small waterfall provide a serene setting for evening soaks or morning coffee. Mary, a native Newporter, prepares outstanding homemade breakfasts featuring her own scones, French toast, and country breakfast—far beyond typical B&B fare. Guests praise her warmth, knowledge of Newport’s history and hidden gems, and the intimate, family-like atmosphere. The location suits couples seeking a personal connection and an escape from hotel anonymity, with easy access to the mansions and downtown.
