wonderful stay in Blue Room. Amazing soft sheets, lovely rain head shower, fireplace created great ambience & gave out great heat. Peekaboo water view from the window seat was a wonderful, unexpected surprise. Enjoyed the sweeter breakfast options. Great location. Unfortunately there was a house under construction directly across the street which created an early noisy start to the day during our Feb 2024 stay, but such is life!

We had a delightful experience at the Cliffside Inn recently. The room was charming; tastefully decorated and very clean. The staff was friendly and knowledgeable. The breakfasts were quite tasty, and having a happy hour nightly in one of the fireplaced living rooms was a nice touch. Located close to the Cliff Walk and the Mansions and Newport Art Museum was a bonus.

My partner and I came here for a mini getaway to celebrate his birthday. We chose the loft room because of the main photo on their site showing the skylights above the bed. I was super excited about that feature however upon arrival we were escorted to our room only to be told that the skylights above the bed are under repair and will not be functional during our stay. I was quite disappointed but what was I going to do? I had already paid close to $1000 for 2 nights and didn’t have any other options at that point. I do feel that this should have been repaired prior to our arrival or a discount for the inconvenience or even a different room option should have been offered. The individual that checked me in actually came to tell me that they needed to charge my card an extra penny, lol. They are worried about a penny instead of making sure everything is functional for their guests! What a joke! The bed frame appears to be too big for the mattress because the frame oddly sticks out at the bottom end of the bed, I bumped my legs on it multiple times just walking by and have some serious bruising on both legs because of it.
The water pressure in the bathroom was extremely low and the whirlpool bath took forever to fill up. The bed wasn’t comfortable at all, quite hard. The pillows did make it somewhat tolerable. We definitely had trouble falling asleep. I did get quite the workout going up and down the inn stairs to the room, lol. Also the room never gets truly dark.

The Cliffside is a beautiful property with a Gilded Age charm. The staff was welcoming and professional. The amenities were great and outdoor fire pit area was a bonus.

We had the most romantic getaway weekend at Cliffside. The service was amazing, and the property is beautiful! I must get the recipe for the cookies and the name of the bed linens. Both were wonderful!

This was a beautiful property. The only two things I didn't like were there were cobwebs up in the chandelier and corners high in the ceiling. Not fun to be in bed and look up at those. There was a dangerous step leading out the walkway and although there was a light fixture on it the fixture wasn't turned on all 3 nights I was there. I complained about the light and they still didn't manage to get it turned on. The wallkway in general was just very poorly lit. I spent a lot of money to stay here so everything was expected to be a A

This Inn is a gem. Professional and helpful staff, Beautiful Victorian details and decor, easy access to the Cliff Walk and 1st Beach. Our room had the most amazing window seat in the bay window, too!

The house and rooms are beautifully appointed and charming. However, for the high price they charge - would expect more of a personal touch or some kind of services. Check in and out was basically just picking up and leaving your key - no real greeting or welcoming. When we inquired about things to do - there was no offer of help to coordinate and no advice or guidance offered (it was almost as if they were surprised we were asking....doesn't that come with the territory of running an Inn?). Many missed opportunites for them to "plus up" the experience....things that take little to no money or effort. House was beautiful, but really no special touches or service mentality.

The inn was very charming and conveniently located near the Cliff Walk. Additionally, the Cliffside Inn team provided a level of service that was well above what you’d receive from a standard, large hotel chain. This was the perfect place for a romantic weekend getaway.

Staff was great and very convenient to downtown Newport and a short walk to the cliff walk. It was great.

The Cliffside Inn is a charming victorian style B&B. The rooms are beautifully decorated in keeping with the style and charm of the inn. We stayed in the Blue Room which had a Queen 4 post bed, window nook and updated bathroom and fireplace. The room was comfortable and impecably clean. The staff was warm and friendly and very helpful. There is free onsite parking as well. We enjoyed the homemade cookies and excellent coffee provided for free. The location is great. The Inn is within walking distance to Easton's Beach and the access to the Cliff Walk is right down the street. The area is beautiful and quiet. I highly recommend the Inn and would stay there again.

The location is literally steps away from the Cliff Walk- so you can venture out for the most beautiful views. Easy walkable to the Breakers for instance. I loved the decor of the property- gorgeous updated wallpaper- just enough to make it more modern but keeping old world charm. We had the Turner Suite and I was obsessed with the colors and we had a lovely ocean view. Our room was lovely and bright too. Breakfast was a great choice of 'small plates' -frittata, breads, fruit, overnight oats. Water and coffee are always available. We sat outside facing the lovely garden most mornings but plenty of room inside too. At 5 pm wine and appetizers are put out for an hour or so which was also a lovely touch not to mention the devine chocolate chip cookies that were out. Walk into 'town' is about 15 minutes and you can cut through some neighborhoods if not in the mood for the main road.

Quiet, charming bed & breakfast next to the cliff/cliff side trail (ocean side trail permitting views of the dozens of enormous mansions built by the nations 19th/20th century barrons). Newport Beach is a gorgeous little town, safe and tourism friendly. Easy 1 mile Uber to all locations or just walk. Cliffside is cozy, quiet and has ample outdoor and indoor space, fire places etc.

This was a gift to my daughter and her husband for Christmas as they don't get away much these days. She reported that the king suite with the skylight was exactly as pictured and perfectly lovely. The double tub was a huge luxury for them and they relaxed and enjoyed every minute of their stay. I could not be happier.

I came here on Saturday. Karen welcomed me with a huge smile and positivity. She showed me around and gave great suggestions. I felt like I was staying at a friend's house. I left on Monday and already rebooked. This place is a gem and all the staff here are fantastic. Hats off to all of them.

Beautiful property! We had the Swan Room and it was perfect for us. Small? No, it was incredibly cozy. To enjoy a sensational breakfast in the morning and a glass of wine and hors d'oeuvres in the evening was so nice and made possible by the excellent staff.
Will definitely go back!
Thank you!
