Howard Johnson by Wyndham Middletown Newport Area

The rooms are very clean and newly renovated. Love the new toilets and the beds are super comfortable. The staff are exceptional and go out of their way to help you and accommodate you. We found the breakfast staff very friendly and the breakfast had a nice variety and was available 6 to 10 a.m. There is a vast park which has trails to walk your dogs directly down from the hotel. Poop bags are provided at the hotel if you run out. The pool is extremely clean, lots of towels provided and a small exercise room next to the pool. Free wi-fi is available. An Applebees is conveniently attached for a late night snack or drink. The location itself is just minutes from downtown Newport. There are some nice thrift stores and antique stores located in Middletown near the hotel. Our stay was lovely.

This was a very nice hotel, with a big room and comfortable beds. The room had a fridge freezer and a microwave. In the hotel lobby there was a coffee/tea maker machine which you could use any time of the day. The breakfast was excellent (usually something warm things: e.g. scrambled eggs/sausage or bacon) and yoghurts and toast and waffles and fruit). Staff was very friendly. There was a nice restaurant just around the entrance (less than 1 min walk). It is an excellent place to visit Newport. Easiest is to take the bus (no 60) that stops at the petrol station across the road and costs 2 dollars per trip (cash needed, staff at the hotel changed some fivers for us into 1 dollars) . I can certainly recommend this place as it is also excellent value for money.

Breakfast was great and had the usual - eggs, meat of some kind, breads, cereal, juices, etc... Nice that breakfast went later than usual to 10am. Our double queen room was very spacious with lots of storage space (dresser, open closet, and shelves) including a sizeable mini fridge with a decent size freezer. The indoor pool area was actually one of the biggest and nicest I've seen. Big windows looking out onto a lawn, lots of tables surrounding, and a hot tub. I've noticed many hotels have closed their hot tubs during Covid and never opened them again, but this HoJo had it bubbling away-and it was bigger than normal. Very nice.

It appeared that the hotel had been completely updated recently. Very clean and functional room with plenty of convenient outlets and charging ports! Breakfast room was clean and did offer a very of breakfast options. And the coffee was a pleasant surprise…much better than average hotel coffee. Plenty of wide parking available.

The room was spotless with great storage, plenty of supplies and very comfortable beds. Breakfast was pretty good, the coffee and bread selection were of a good standard. The hotel is in a nice quiet location backing onto countryside with an Applebee's restaurant nearby which does good food. Parking is free and plentiful.
