About The Inn

Artful Lodger Inn

The Artful Lodger Inn is located in historic Newport, Rhode Island. This victorian-style building was built circa 1850. Nestled in Newport’s mansion district, The Artful Lodger Inn is just one city block from Newport Harbor and the downtown area restaurants and shopping. This family-operated Inn, which was purchased and renovated in 1992 by Rory and Ric Ranucci, continues to be operated by their family. We provide our guests with ample off-street parking, concierge services, and a full breakfast (with gluten free and vegan options available upon request in advance). Additionally, the Inn presents an extraordinary view of Newport Harbor from the breakfast room, our rooftop “Conservatory”, which guest can enjoy daily from breakfast until 9pm.
