Jailhouse Inn

The Jailhouse Inn is an award-winning adaptation of the former Newport County Jail that once occupied the handsome Federal-style building. Friendly, attentive staff help guests feel instantly at home by pairing a bed-and-breakfast attitude with hotel-style guestrooms and amenities. Located in the heart of Newport, Rhode Island, the Jailhouse Inn is just steps from great dining, shopping and the waterfront: • Within two blocks are historic Washington Square, the White Horse Tavern ("oldest tavern in America"), Colony House (where the Declaration of Independence was read in July 1776), Jane Pickens Theatre, Newport History Museum, and the bustle along cobblestoned Thames Street. • Within four blocks are Newport Harbor, Bowen's and Bannister's Wharves, Broadway's newly vibrant restaurant district, and the many architectural wonders of Historic Hill. Parking, continental breakfast and wifi are included with all Jailhouse reservations, so just arrive, relax, and enjoy.
