Wonderfully located near Newport historical sites
The Inn on Bellevue is perfectly located for exploring Newport, especially the historical sites. You're not a far walk or drive from several places of interest, and are surrounded by lots of little nuances that make this area such a popular vacation spot.
positive:
Nice breakfast in a cozy and quaint setting
Breakfast is quite delicious and filling, and served in the lobby, which has the same kind of Victorian charm as the rest of the inn. The atmosphere is relaxing, quiet, and tranquil, with nothing rushed or done at low standards.
Negative Reviews
negative:
Room temps should be individually controlled
Heating and air conditioning are sometimes an issue, since they're not individually regulated. Thus, the heat may not be on during cold spells, or the a/c may not be turned on when it's warm. Check the forecast beforehand, and be prepared by bringing extra clothes or a travel fan, just in case.
negative:
Water temperatures are inconsistent and unreliable
The water pressure and temperature is difficult to keep steady, and may alternate between desirable and terrible preferences. It doesn't seem to be a guaranteed balance between all of the rooms.
negative:
Furnishings are outdated and need a makeover
The Victorian décor isn't an entire success. It seems too much, in the sense that it should be more of an accent, rather than the overall theme. The rooms need brighter, more modern furnishings and linens, and more comfortable beds mattresses.
