My boyfriend and I just celebrated our one-year anniversary in Newport. We stayed at the Black Duck Inn in the Meritage room and we couldn't have been more pleased! The Inn itself is super cute and feels homey. We checked in on Saturday (a little early). They had everything waiting for us, gave us the keys and told us to... More

This is a really charming and modern bed and breakfast and I would go again in a heartbeat. My boyfriend and I spent the weekend while I was visiting on break from an assignment in Haiti., and we really appreciated the comfort and ambiance of the Black Duck Inn. One great thing is that it is in a walking location... More

Our room was up to date, wiFi included and well atired and very clean. The breakfast was exceptional with great choices and very friendly staff. Just a short walk to the waterfront and all the stores and clubs such as the Speak Easy where we had a great 'Meet and Greet' party for all our wedding guests. Their service and... More

The room wasn't too big but big enough. The bathroom was nice and modern. The lounge is very nice with city scheme furniture. My husband loved the cookies they put out. I have celiac disease and they were able to make me delicious gluten free pancakes with fresh blueberries. It was fun but not noisy (lots of young couples stayed... More

Our girls' weekends are very important to us. For years we have stayed in Newport in different places, own a timeshare, and have made many friends there. Once we stayed at the Black Duck Inn, we knew we'd never stay anywhere else. The rooms and bathrooms are spotless. The beds are very comfortable and the breakfasts are delicious. I recommend... More

This is hands-down the best B&B in NPT. Lovely, clean, comfortable rooms; park and walk to everywhere in downtown newport; affordable yet first-rate. Best part of the whole place is the inn-keeper Jeannie, who goes above and beyond to make sure your stay is the best ever. This is my 3d time there and I'm planning on staying there when... More

I chose this B&B based on the modern photos on the web site. I knew the inn had been recently renovated, so I expected it to be very clean and updated. We stayed in the Chardonnay room. I had read that the rooms were very "cozy" so I was not surprised at the very small size. What did surprise me...the... More

Booked this place pretty last minute after deciding to get away for Labor Day. Booked the room no problem. When we checked in and went to the room, it was kinda stuffy, although it wasn't too hot out. I called the front desk, and indicated it was pretty hot and was there anything they could do.. WELL THEY DID!! They... More

Our first visit to Newport, we chose the Black Duck Inn after seeing room pictures on the website. It has two sister properties on the same street. Our room was spacious, well apportioned and very comfortable. The Inn has had recent renovations and other rooms looked very nice also. The proximity to Bannister's Wharf, America's Cup Blvd, Bellevue and lower... More
