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.

Our suite was very clean and had everything we needed for our stay. The fireplace even worked with dura flame logs which you could get at the front desk. There was plenty of parking which in Newport can be an issue. The rooms were spacious and the bars were comfortable. This was a very affordable and relaxing place to stay.

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.

I love the Wellington's site and walkability to everything. Its proximity makes it convenient to everything, but just far enough away from the crowds. The parking is plentiful for the area. It does need some tlc however as
the units are looking dated and paint is peeling.

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.
