“This was a great find!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 26 August 2010

I can't say enough about the comfort of this inn and the graciousness of its hosts. It's in a lovely old part of town, away from the hustle and bustle of the tourist traffic, but close enough to take a convenient walk to other places. We found the hosts to be very warm and accommodating, and thoroughly enjoyed our stay. There was enough interaction to be appreciated but not so much as to be intrusive. Over the years we've stayed in a variety of places in Newport (hotels and bed and breakfasts). This was truly one of the best stays and best values.

“Excllent Find”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 2 August 2010

We found the Victoria Skylar B&B in a random search for a place to stay for a night after a wedding in Newport. We ended up staying for the whole weekend and having a great mini vacation. Our room was large and airy with handsome Victorian furniture . The bathroom was modern and spotlessly clean. The house was beautifully decorated with antiques and fresh flowers. Our hosts were pleasant and helpful but not hovering. Breakfast was fantastic --truly a gourmet experience with fresh baked goods; and a delicious complete breakfast.This B&B is located on a quiet , residential street in "The Point" which is the oldest section of Newport. The streets run down to the bay where there is a park and a beautiful view of the Newport bridge. Newport shopping, nightlife and beaches are minutes away. In a city where parking can be a problem , this B&B offered off street and safe, free on street parking.

“What a relaxing, peaceful place to stay...”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 23 April 2009

I was visiting Newport RI and spent the night at The Victoria Skylar Bed and Breakfast. It's to the right just as you cross the bridge. I stayed in the 'Slater Room' and I don't believe I've ever had a more restful night sleep anywhere except at home. We walked downtown for dinner and shopping and left the next morning for a day in Boston. I think one night there is worth two nights rest anywhere else.

Thanks Joanne and Derrick!

“Loved the Inn”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 2 January 2009

I have to say me and my husband have stayed in many Inns throughout New England and the Victoria Skylar is one of our favorites. My husband had just come back from a year in Iraq and we stayed at the Inn for part of our honeymoon. The Inn Keeper Ann was so wonderful. She was helpful in helping us decide on a restaurant as well as helping us with suggestions on what to see during our stay. We talk about her often. We were even pleasantly surprised to receive a lovely Christmas card from her and her husband this year. We left feeling more like family than just a guest. The breakfast was wonderful and very filling we didn't even have to eat lunch we were so full from breakfast. I highly recommend the Victoria Skylar Inn.
