Wellington Hotel, New York City > Reviews

Advantages: Location, food available downstairs
Disadvantages: Room was small and needed updating

I stayed at the Wellington hotel on my second trip to New York, and the decision was based on a recommendation from the Travel Agent. There were a few people in reception when we arrived and it took about half an hour to be checked in. We had booked one double room and one twin room for our party but were told that there was no twin rooms available so we would have to have a double with a foldaway bed, which someone would bring to the room.

Advantages: Central Location
Disadvantages: Room Size

We stayed here in Feb 2008 after booking through an online travel company. We booked our flights with another online company. We were very happy with this mid-range hotel. It has an impressive exterior but we were slightly disappointed with the room sizes and the staff were not overly friendly - constant tipping required in return for information! The hotel is ideally located 10 mins from Times Square and 5 mins from Central Park. There is an amazing ... Read review

Advantages: Location, Location, Location :-)
Disadvantages: Tired and Dated Hotel :-(

We booked up The Wellington Hotel for Seven Nights on the Alpharooms website (cheapest we could find) for two people it came to £920; which is a good price for a week in a mid-range hotel in NYC. Most of the reviews read favourably, indicating that the main advantage of staying here was its location on 7th Ave/55th St. Upon entering the Hotel we were greeted with a HUGE grand looking chandelier, lighting up the reception area. The staff were pleasant ... Read review

Advantages: Everything
Disadvantages: Nothing

I really enjoy travelling around the world, and one thing that I have come to like is staying in a hotel that is central to the place I am visiting. Well, I can definitely say that this hotel is centered in the middle of new york city and close to all of the attractions. For a start, this hotel is great value for money and you will certainly get what you paid for, no doubt. I thought that the quality of service from the staff was excellent, and were ... Read review

Advantages: Simple, quite cheap for New York
Disadvantages: Not very modern

...2006, and for me the Wellington Hotel was a great choice! As I was 18 and it was just me and my partner, we wanted something cheap and cheerful. In the end (including flights) we paid £1,300 for 5 days, which is quite cheap for New York. When we arrived, everyone is really helpful and offer to take your bags to your room (although n.b. you do have to pay tips!). The rooms are really good value and you get the usual tv, kettle, maSSive bed and ... Read review
