Arrival in New York

We arrived in Islip, Long Island with some light rain. Found our "limo" (really a black Chevy SUV) that took us to downtown New York. The ride was long with stop and go traffic - our driver said people were returning fromt he beaches. We drove though Queens past LaGuardia airport and the Shea stadium where the Mets play. Connor and Lauren got a kick out of the Queens mid-town tunnel - longest tunnel they had ever been in. When we arrived we checked in the the Wellington - the hotel where Bora...

New York - Day 2

Yesterday morning we started with a breakfast at the cafe at the base of the Wellington. Voted "pretty good" by everyone in the group. After breakfast. we took the subway yellow R line to battery park in downtown Manhatten. Easy access as the subway stop is just outside the Wellington's door. It was Lauren and Connor's first subway ride. Lauren voted the subway ghetto but they both thought it was ok, apart from the panhandler that had our car a captive audience between one stop. At the entran...

New York City

Hey, Sorry its been awhile but being on my own now means that internet is hard to come by. I have already been to New York and i am currently in Wilmington, North Carolina...aka Dawson's Creek/One Tree Hill land. Anyway, just wanted to give you an idea of waht i got up to in New York. I had 3 nights in the Wellington Hotel. It was a nice hotel, the room was small but as it was just me i didn't have any worries. It was nice i thought, plus the view was incredible when i leaned out my window as...

Historical Traveler Reviews of Wellington New York City

All is well at the Wellington Hotel

from A TripAdvisor Member
Our stay at the Wellington was a wonderful experience in every way. The Staff was very friendly and helpful. The King size room that we stayed in was the best part of our trip. With nice decor and a spacious bathroom we knew our money was well spent.We look forward to our next trip to New York and of course we will stay at the Wellington Hotel.

Loved It!

from A TripAdvisor Member
The hotel ws clean centrally located. The best thing was the staff, who bent over backwards to give us great service.

I was great annd reasonably priced for all we got there.

Cold/Hot/Noisy/Terrible Staff

from A TripAdvisor Member
Greeted with a bigot at check in. Room was way to hot in the winter. Had to have window wide open. Way too much noise on the street. Heard other guests complain about room too cold. Will never stay there again.

There is nothing well about the Wellington

from spectator
The room was small with stained carpet. The bed. a double was comfortable. The bathroom was miniscule. The grout at the bottom of the bathtub was dirty. The lobby is original from the 1930's. There was no service. We checked in early, the room was not ready and we checked our luggage. When we returned to the hotel at midnight, the bellman said he was going off duty and we had to wait 20 minutes to get our luggage. We checked out early the next day, and checked our luggage- again a long wait to leave it and retrieve it. The only thing great about this hotel is its location. I would never stay there again.

Weekend trip

from A TripAdvisor Member
The Wellington was nothing fancy. We waited in a really long line to check in. The room was clean (bathroom was spotless), but the bed was a bit uncomfortable. The Wellington served our purposes well as it was inexpensive and in a central location.

Noisy Air-con

from Viv
We have stayed at the Wellington now 3 times . Its comfy,convenient and kind of nice but the noise from the heaters and the pipes rattling were abit too much. Also the heater mechanism never worked and was beyond me.

Still, we are going again this Xmas

The Wonderful Wellington

from A TripAdvisor Member
To All- I've been to the Wellington Hotel a few times in the past year, and each visit is as wonderful as the one before. The doormen, front desk staff, and sales office are very friendly and have helped me with whatever I have needed. On one visit I stayed in a room with a terrace. It had such a feeling of "The Big City". I hope that you enjoy your stay as much as I did.

Nightmare on 7th Avenue - the dirty version

from A TripAdvisor Member
Hygiene

Bed Linen was stained and had not been changed from previous occupants stay – we had to ask three times for these to be changed, when housekeeping staff attended totally surly in attitude. Towels were dirty and had to be changed. Waste Food on the floor from previous incumbents that remained there during our stay and may well be there now. Evidence of what appeared to be mouse droppings (yes I know what they look like) on the window sill. Evidence of what appeared to be blood stains on the sofa.

Decor. In all areas of the room wall coverings were peeling away from the wall. The shower was coming away from the wall. The hot tap (faucet) was insecure and kept becoming detached. We did not get a city view we got a court view that looked directly into the plumbing/waste shafts from one window and into other guests’ rooms from other windows.

Corridors from elevators to rooms, were not cleaned during our residency and could become a health hazard. The place needs to be totally renovated and should be regularly inspected by City Hygiene Officals.

The Hotel from Hell

from A TripAdvisor Member
Without a doubt, the worst experience I've ever had. Filthy, discourteous, unconcerned . . . do you get my drift? Avoid this place or your trip to the most magnificent city in the world will be ruined!

Cold

from A TripAdvisor Member
I went to New York with my friend Beni. We were so amazed about the city that we could finally accept the bad hotel.

In our room we couldn't close the windows. When we came back from visiting the city, our room was always ice cold. The nights were really hard: This little beds and the cold wind, buh!

But, we will never forget this holiday trip!
