We have stayed at Wellington several times. All of the condo's we've been to were wonderful. What sets this stay in room 313B is not only the set up and the space, they had additional amenities available which made a huge difference to us! You can't go wrong with Wellington, especially with kids!

Excellent property! Incredible harbor views, super comfy beds, well appointed kitchen, parking beneath our suite & friendly staff at check-in. While the furnishings are older - the rooms were all spacious. Very comfortable overall. Would stay here again, without question!

Very warm staff and welcome. Easy check in and out. It felt very private. Lovely view and spacious. Bathroom and water pressure in toilets may need to be maintained, did not clog but sounds like it will. That would be the only suggestion for improvement. Overall, love the stay and would visit again.

Excellent location and stay

We took advantage of the cheaper prices in Newport in the off-season to visit our daughter. The location is excellent (Thames St) and free parking is a huge advantage in Newport. The staff were friendly and professional, and explained anything that we needed to know. The apartment was spacious and very comfortable. Although it has a kitchen, it doesn't have a stove (there is a hot plate that can be used for something). The fireplace was an extra treat for a cold February night. We loved everything about the resort. The only area that could be improved is the condition. The apartment's condition was generally fine, but a fresh lick of paint and caulking around the baseboards would help make it look better.

Stay was fine. Really great if you have a family because you are given so much space for a great price. It’s not totally renovated which is fine with us, but it had a really strong mens cologne smell throughout the apartment and even on the bedding which made it really hard to sleep. We were excited to use the pool, which was nice, but the water was really murky. I couldn’t see my daughter in the water when she would jump in which I wasn’t crazy about. It was worth it for the space.

Nice place right on the waterfront near the shops and attractions. Very spacious and the staff is super friendly. Only knock we had is the property is older and could use some upgrades especially in the bathrooms. Very clean though. We will be back.

We love the Wellington resort you feel like you’re at home not in a small hotel room. It’s very spacious and big enough to bring your family or just for two. Its also a great location. You can walk to town and has amazing views. The parking is included and convenient. The reception staff is so nice no complaints.

Perfect for families

We had an amazing stay! The rooms were so spacious and comfortable and clean. Our kids enjoyed the indoor pool. For a family of 6 this is the perfect place to stay. We will be back!
