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.

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.

I just love the suites! It is advertised as a room, but it has two bedrooms, a living room/dining room and a kitchen with a refrigerator, microwave, toaster, coffee maker, dishwasher, and washer/dryer in each unit. The Wellington is incredible and affordable. There isn't anything about it that I don't like. Can't wait to go back.

Very happy with the property. One comment is there is a door to an outside stairwell in the unit. There is no way of locking this such as a deadbolt. Young children could get out easily; there needs to be a deadbolt option on that door
