Edgewood Manor Bed & Breakfast Inn

The manor is stunning. My husband and I stayed in the Samuel Priest room. This room boasts a gas fireplace, a jacuzzi, and a king post bed.
The bathroom for this room, and probably all of them since the manor is old, is small and does not have a fan. This is one of my peeves. Nothing is worse than having a steamy, stinky bathroom.
The breakfast in the morning was wonderful and welcoming. The server, Joy, was a riot. She normally is the chef, but was trying her hand at serving on this particular day and she definitely kept things lighthearted.
Overall, this is a beautiful romantic manor. Highly recommended for couples looking for a relaxing getaway.

My boyfriend took me here as part of my birthday surprise. I didn’t want to stay in a typical hotel. The décor was true to the home, everything seemed to be from its original owners with some updates in the rooms such as fixtures and the bathrooms. It was a comfortable stay in the rooms, however the Inn Keeper made my boyfriend and I a little uncomfortable with some of his commentary. I’m sure he was just trying to find common ground, but commenting on how he had a black friend and mentioned slave art pieces and dining with 9 young women at a function (which was random) made me a bit uneasy. It had nothing to do with our rooms or our stay.

Very disappointed after hearing rave reviews about the innkeeper, staff and exceptional customer service. In summary, extremely inflexible and rude. An overpriced and inhospitable stay in Cranston, RI.

We stayed here over the weekend. Over all a very nice place to stay. The property consists of two different houses all beautifully furnished. Very cool to stay in house over 100 years old. The breakfast was good but limited. They seam to ignore your requests for any changes from what is offered. The staff were not very personable. I’ve stayed in several B&b’s and I’ve never seen envelopes soliciting tips for all the staff. Really? Three different envelopes left in the room for tips? Never saw that before. Also I guess it’s to be expected, many noises and creaks from the rooms up above. Try to get a second floor room or you will be waking up at O’dark thirty every morning. Over all I would say its a good alternative to a hotel on beautiful grounds, just don’t expect 4 star service.

We live right down the street from Edgewood Manor, and are happy to say that this has become the go-​to location for our inlaws when they are in town. While the location of the manor is not conducive to walking, the grounds are lovely and the rooms are warm and inviting. Their breakfast is top notch, which cannot be said for all B&Bs. The gentleman running the place is a bit of a talker, but that’s ok.
As a side note, there was a bridal shower being hosted the day after their last stay — from the looks of the setup, this would be a beautiful location for a spring shower or day party!

The Edgewood Manor Inn was an interesting bed and breakfast. We found the location on
and the site said there was only one room available for the nights we wanted to stay. We booked immediately and paid by credit card (in full) based on reviews and photos of the inn. We booked 32 days in advance.
Two days before our arrival I received a phone message from «Andrew» stating that my credit card had been declined. Troubling for 2 reasons, since my card was fine and I paid 30 days earlier. The reply that I got was that «We get busy and sometimes don’t get around to charging the card for weeks later.» I booked online, and my card was right. «Andrew» wrote the number down wrong.
Aesthetically, the Inn is MAGNIFICENT. Very clean. An abundance of art and furnished as if it were a Victorian Mansion. If you enjoy staying at a place that looks rich, and makes you feel rich (if only for a couple of nights) Edgewood is a great choice.
Other than aesthetically, however, there were several issues. For the 3 days and 2 nights we were there, we never saw «Andrew» or for that fact any proprietor of the Inn, told by the cook that he comes by a few Thursdays a month. Interesting. The only people who were there were Drew, a college kid working part time and Kenny, who I guess is an Art Aficionado, but I have no idea what his role there was.
The Inn was not booked. We were in fact the only people there for 2 of the days we stayed. There were 18 rooms. No one helped to carry our bags. We politely asked if we could be moved into a larger room (we could only afford the smallest one… which was still gorgeous, and the place was otherwise empty of guests). We figured there is no one else, why not cater to your clientele? We were told the we could move to a larger room, for $ 80 extra a night (37% of what we paid for our room). We were put off by this.
Don’t believe the hype about the Wi-​Fi being fixed, as noted in previous comments by «Richard» on other people’s posts (still have no idea who «RIchard» is). The Wi-​Fi is poor, at best, even when standing directly next to the router in the sitting room. Upstairs in the bedchambers, the Wi-​FI ins non-​existent.
The food for breakfast is very good and very well prepared. But be prepared to get only what the chef wants to make, and be prepared to wait for it. She will make you plenty of food, however. On our last day, I wanted eggs bacon and toast, and was realistically given an attitude, told that she was making french toast that day. By this time there was another couple staying at the Inn, but there were only 2 rooms occupied. I was flabbergasted when I was told that she would prefer not to make what I wanted, rather what she wanted to serve me. Seriously? I eventually got what I wanted, but waited 45 minutes to get eggs.
All in all, there are a lot of comments that I’ve made here that are negative, but the Edgewood Manor Inn was not really a bad place. Simply stated, it’s a very elegant but very simple Bed and Breakfast, and you get what you pay for. The Inn is immaculate and gorgeous, and if that’s what you like, this would be a great choice for you. If you’re looking for something beyond the typical B&B, you might be left disappointed.
On a side note, I see that many of the past posts that have had negative comments have had «Richard» make a comment in response to the post. Richard, I welcome your reply. My post is not meant to degrade the Edgewood Manor Inn, but simply to relate my experiences to other travelers who may want to stay.

It was a very experience, staying at Edgewood Manor. I had not done the New England Bed and Breakfast thing before, and didn’t know what to expect, but it was very good. Minus one star because the Internet did not seem to work (wireless was on but no Internet connection was coming through), though shame on me for trying to work in an environment like that. Very relaxing, and breakfast was outstanding,

We’ve stayed at the Edgewood Manor a few times but this time, we stayed next door at the Newhall House. Andy (the owner) was super nice and greeted us like we were old friends. Andy met us in Edgewood Manor and walked us over to Newhall House. We stayed in the Elms Suite. When I opened the door to the room, my jaw dropped. It was BIG! There’s a hallway in the suite with two separate bedrooms and a large bathroom. The bedrooms have high, period beds (there really needs to be a step stool in the rooms!) The bathroom has a shower stall and a jetted tub. It was so relaxing!
Breakfast the next morning was unbelievable. We started with freshly baked blueberry muffins. Then, we were offered fruit cups. After that course came eggs, bacon, and pancakes (mine were banana but you had a choice.) So yummy! Plus, all the coffee/​tea/​juice that you could ever want. There’s also a cereal bar (which is nice for children.) My son is a super picky eater but he ate the pancakes that Joy made for him. Success!
Joy (the chef) was pleasant and added some humor to our breakfast. Sitting in the gorgeous dining room and chatting with other guests added to the whole ambiance. I felt like royalty (Downton Abbey, anyone?)
We will definitely stay again. I do prefer to be in the main house so that I can have a cup of tea in the lovely sitting area near the fireplace in the evening.
I highly recommend the Edgewood Manor B&B.

We had a nice stay. We were in the Tara suite on the third floor. Lots of stairs lol. But is very nice once you are there. We found the staff to be very pleasant and helpful. This was our first stay in a B&B with our dogs and found it to be very relaxing. The breakfast was made fresh and very delicious. Next time I want a room with a hot tub.

I love this place. My boyfriend and I decide to treat ourselves to a romantic night together at Christmas, it was a last minute thing, we were in the highway and didn’t know where to go since we don’t go to b n b. so i google-​d «best b nb in providence» and Edgewood popped out, called them asked if there’s a room and they gave us directions on how to get there. Andy was nice enough to give us a tour of the available rooms and the facilities they have in such a late hour. upon opening the door to the moment i closed my eyes, i felt like a queen. the place is eludes elegance and gave us an experience that as if we were transported back in time as royalties. Breakfast was just simple and could have used more options but i guess we were too busy to enjoy the ambiance to complain. My boyfriend and I are planning to come back again.

The room was spacious and decorated to match the outside of the building… And the man who checked us in told us the place was haunted! The man who built the building supposedly killed his entire family, then set them up at the dinner table like they were going to eat. Unfortunately we didn’t get to see any ghosts. The breakfast was sufficient… No garden fresh ingredients here, but it was definitely better than Denny’s and the waffles were homemade. I would definitely recommend it to anyone who doesn’t like staying in boring/​traditional style hotels, but still has a budget. Our 2 room suite with jacuzzi-​tub cost $ 180/​night before taxes.
