We were looking forward to our stay at the Pearls for our anniversary weekend. I had booked the B&B through Expedia about a month in advance and had paid for the room. Upon arrival at the Pearls we found the lobby empty so we left a note with our contact info and decided to grab a bite. We got a... more

I am exceptionally well traveled - been to all 7 continents, stayed in castles and been camping. Ray and Lisa have put together a wonderful place, beautifully decorated, and with impeccable service. Their warmth, attention to detail, and hospitality are authentic and refreshing in the world of hotels. The location is just a few blocks from town - away from... more

The Pearls is a very cool / hip / funky / cozy hotel with a fantastic location, and if that is worth a premium price to you, you'll love it. Because I couldn't find any online reservation system for the hotel when I was booking, I called the hotel directly along with some other B & B's I was contacting.... more

Went to Pearls last year during a visit to Newport with my fiance. Overall, we had a good experience and Pearls seems to be a pretty solid choice for most people. We stayed in a "Scottish" themed room in the main building and we found the accomodations to only be "adequate" given the price paid. The room we stayed was... more

On last minute notice I attempted to book a weekend reservation in the off season of November for Newport RI and discovered that the area was entirely booked up every weekend!

I made the reservation in January, and when I called to double check on the booking (after they had charged my credit card in full) I learned that my reservation did not exist-and I had to re-reserve the room all over again. Thankfully they... more

The Pearls is actually 5 lovely restored homes in downtown Newport, all about two blocks from the wharf and the shopping and dining areas. We were fortunate to have Lisa, the owner, personally suggest the perfect suite for our 4-day getaway overlooking the Inn's gardens. The furnishings were not overly fussy or uptight antique but elegant and comfortable. The linens... more

This was our first trip to Newport, RI and we stumbled upon The Pearls on a website and decided to try it out. We are so glad we did!! The host - Ray - was amazing! He recommended several places to go eat and different things to do and even helped us get a reservation at a top restaurant within... more

We are just back from our son's wedding in Newport. It was a special day for family and friends with all the ambience of Newport in summer to make it a perfect setting. Our stay at the Pearls of Newport put the icing on the cake. Lots of "F" words to describe our experience. Fine food, Friendly owner and staff,... more
