Joyful July
Here at the Admiral Fitzroy Inn, we are in full summer mode. We had such a fun time kicking off summer with our guests, family and friends, sitting around the firepit on our roof top deck, viewing Newport’s fabulous display of fireworks. We invite you to join us this month to take advantage of the beautiful gardens and spectacular sunsets from our roof deck, all while being nestled in downtown Newport where you are within walking distance of most attractions. There is so much happening here in Newport and we can’t wait for you to visit!
