Paws on Pelham was an absolutely wonderful place. They were so dog friendly, the staff were incredibly friendly and helpful, and everything was decorated beautifully with such a fun dog theme. It’s just a few minute walk from lots of shopping and restaurants. An intrepid person could even walk to Easton beach if they really wanted to. They have a large, safe parking lot (even though we surprising didn’t have much trouble finding parking). Our room was spacious and clean. It was so sunny and bright and everything felt new. My only minor complaint is that the tv in the bedroom was not a smart TV while the tv in the sitting room was. As well, the walls/floors are fairly thing so you can hear other guests in their rooms or walking around. Most importantly though, my dogs loved. And if they love it, then I love it.

It’s great that they cater to dog owners. However, the rooms are small and it’s an old house so you hear everything. I’m not sure we would choose this option for our next visit.

st patricks day weekend

we had a decent stay. we stayed in room 1 on the first floor right next to the lobby. i wouldn’t recommend this. people were constantly going up and down the stairs above us and we were right next to the ice machine. the first morning of our stay at 7:30, someone kept repeatedly tapping on our door. the window in our bathroom’s glass was cracked. none of the windows had screens and the Unit in the room was only set to heat so we had to open a screen less window to cool it down. we brought our dog and there were plenty of fields in the area to take her to go potty. given it being st patrick’s day weekend, most rooms brought their dogs which i loved. the room above us’s dog was barking incessantly and when they finally checked out on our second morning, house keeping was in their room before 9 vacuuming, banging around and moving what seemed like furniture. wasn’t super relaxing when we were in our room. the walls are thin so you could hear every little noise. i enjoyed getting a code to our room versus a keycard. breakfast both mornings were very good and had good options. the sun deck was small but also very cute. i think i would’ve enjoyed my stay more not on a holiday weekend, or if people prepared their dogs more to be in a strange place. you could tell many were distraught and no owners seemed to be contacted by the lobby to check on them to calm them down.

Celebrates traveling with dogs instead of penalizing. Couldn't have been easier. Adorable dog wallpaper and decor. Was super nice and communication with staff exceptional.

Unique and Charming

Paws was an outstanding little inn. Dog friendly is an understatement, everything about the little b&b is centered around making your dog feel welcome - from in room bowls and beds to treats in the lobby. Even if you aren’t traveling with a dog, it’s an outstanding room in a location that’s walkable to all of Newport - all at a price that’s a fraction of the nearby hotels. Great find - we will be back!

Quick weekend stay in Newport with the pups. Great location and overall experience. Would definitely stay again and recommend to anyone traveling with pets. One complaint would be that you can hear any movement in the rooms above you. We had someone who seemed to be doing laps in their room at 3am, so they was a bit frustrating.

Everything was very clean, the innkeepers were great with communication and were also friendly and accommodating. The hotel is close to all the shops on Thames and Bellevue ave. I will definitely be returning. My pups loved the place too

A great place to stay, especially if you have a dog! Just be aware that the stairs are steep and the walk up to the third floor can be hard going.

We absolutely adored our stay. We got in a little late after traffic and the self check-in process was quick and convenient and we got right into our room. The room itself was incredibly comfortable and welcoming for us and our pup. We loved our stay and wished we had an extra day or two!
