About this property

King with Kitchenette and Fireplace, 2 blocks to Thames

“This historic Victorian was once home to Admiral William Sowden Sims (past President of the Naval War College in Newport Rhode Island) which inspired the name of our accommodations, but now features King bed Studios with Kitchenette and fireplace including private baths, Cable TV, Air-Conditioning, Free Wi-Fi, and Free off-street parking.

It’s perfect for government / military per diem travel or for teleworkers who need a change of scenery.

The garden is private....yet just minutes away, you’re in the center of Newport’s many activities, historical attractions, fine restaurants, ocean beach, and unique shops. At the end of each day, you’ll return to sleep in quiet, historic settings.

We are the family from Admiral Sims' House on Catherine St and on Mill St which offers Studio and Apartment Rentals. We've been B&B owners since 2000 and just love Newport and these old Victorian houses. Catherine St is a great location and we just finished renovating the rooms to create fresh, clean King studio's with Kitchenette and Fireplace for Newport visitors - long and short term. Hope you like it!
